>>51658387>color paletteI will concede that the 3D models make these colours look really bad, see pic related, that said the colours are fine on the actual art we got so far
>general themeGen 8 designs are 80% sportsfanatics which gets incredibly samey. Gen 9 so far has a snowboarder, which works well with the icetype, a man with a clear rose motif and a whip, which works for the grass type and a vtuber-like streamer, and as much as I hate it, it works for electric type and is distinct
>body variationI'll give you this one, I don't think Gen 9 does this worse, but just the three Gen 8 characters in OPs image showcase it pretty well
>pure appealsubjective, and I feel like both Gens are equally hit or miss, gen 8 has a lot of boring ones contrasting with the few gems like Nessa
gen 9 has Iono, who seems to be incredibly polarizing by herself (no pun intended)
>you have to be braindead and have no knowledge of charadesign as a wholeI don't know man, you've been spouting these words with no context so I would hear what exactly makes these points so bad in your eyes. Otherwise I'd have to write it off as a case of the Dunning Kruger Effect
