>>16785316The Gardevoir is leaning more heavily on one leg than the other. This is seen most easily by the mind as being because the other leg, the one going unused, is somehow weaker.
The hips, due to their unnatural leaning, is slanted. This raises one side much more than it would be in a neutral standing position.
This in turn forces the Gardevoir's back to be crooked into a 'J-ish' shape towards its shoulders. The neck is doing something similar as well, and the shoulders in between seem to droop as the odd musculature from the subject's back rises above them.
All of these things make the pose look uncomfortable, and visibly so. If one were to take this pose without direction, it would likely mean that they were in some sort of pain. Likely, it would be in their leg, but it would be so intense that it would be plain in every joint that they possessed.
I will end this there. I think that I have given enough details as to why this image just doesn't meet my standards for realistic art.
Before I go, some closing remarks.
Look at this. This is a good, realistic depiction of a Pokemon. It doesn't turn a creature that could potential be adorable into something hideous. It is instantly recognizable, but doesn't look childishly animated. It takes inspiration from animals that are real and share similarities so as not to end up with something that looks almost nothing like the original concept.
Thank you for your time. Enjoy your day.
