How the pokemon would not only look but animate from all angles. Some pokemon have very simplistic designs but they work when you see them move and do something you didn't expect.
This is what the vast majority of fakemon get wrong.
>>34392573 >>34396802 >>34396684 They add too much decoration to try to set them apart from a regular cartoon of an animal or object with no consideration of all angles or movements and other quirks. Bunch of busy, unfunctional designs.
This is also what sets apart Pokemon from other monster collecting media. Most don't seem to consider making a clean and functional design and just throw stuff that looks cool at it.
