Explorers redrew most of these, but that's clearly because the frown on some did not match the dialogue in that game. Still, they really should've matched RT for an RT remake.
No idea what Charmander's deal is, however. What was wrong with the crossed arms? It's like they have some kind of mandate against dynamic poses.
