>>46809382there were standard poses & dynamic poses. now we only have regular art for standard poses. the old gen 1 art with the thicker outlines (pic related, I think it was for the anime?) was the same, it has a lot of the same poses as the watercolors & a lot of side poses, but theres also some cool art that exists of them attacking each other & using attacks alone, those stockarts were in the official manual book & I had a calendar way back when that had them.
by the way does anybody know of an archive or compilation of either sets of art? I can go to bulbapedia and find art mixed in with other newer art but I dont know where to find all of the specific style together.
