>>56826786People feel the need to add an absolute metric ton of special effects to their sprites, because doing so gets the users on the discord to shower them with praise. Same reason why some sprites seem to fill the entire canvas despite both mons being relatively small, because bigger = more positive feedback.
I still maintain that Oz (the guy who made
>>56826422) is one of the best regular spriters on the server purely because they don't do that shit.
>>56835179>you say that but i can't imagine salazzle would get a free entry pass if someone made 300 sprites for herIf it was a good spriter that made them? They'd probably add it.
If it was a bad spriter? Probably not.
>>56835864Nothing past Gen VII is being added, because the game's based on Pokemon Essentials, and Essentials hasn't been updated past Gen VII. That's the sole reason.
If Infinite Fusion wasn't held together by sellotape due to running in an atrocious engine, it would 100% include Gen VIII+ mons, and probably also include the entire dex instead of a random selection from Gen III onwards. Hell, the only reason we got anything past the first 420 was because one single guy volunteered to unfuck some of the shitty code.
