This is something i've been noticing for a while now. Wondering if anyone else even sees this.

The grass is always greener on the other regions.

The picture of the irl blue grass makes it look like I would expect to run into wild Pokémon if I were to walk through it.
Hmm.

Interesting. Could be one of the reasons why I liked Gen 2s Atmosphere a lot better.

Same. It hit that "old japan" feel a lot better than the remakes did, and I think the limited, more rustic palette had a lot to do with it.

Ever heard of Kentucky Bluegrass? I grew up in the midwest so that's what I mostly saw growing up anyway.

Can't say I have. Just compared this (the bluest bluegrass I could find on google) with the bluest (emerald) pokemon grass, and it seems to match up somewhat.

Couldn't agree more.

But I have the feeling that I've always been a fan of simplistic things. It's almost like I dislike modern videogames because of superior graphics. Maybe because it leaves no room for imagination. I remember all the interesting secrets that Generation 2 had and how I didn't manage to figure all of them out. Every Gen after that seems generic and just bland. I still enjoy playing them but not as much, as the old ones

If anything, better graphics leaves too much room for imagination.

Part of it is definitely Johto's heavy old-japan theme, I think. Every region after Johto feels like they're playing it a little too safe - like each one is a generic, standard anime land.

Nah. I disagree. It's all there for the taking, no need for me to think about anything. I doesn't even let me do that.

This. It gives it a more Pokemon feeling.

Yep. Kalos is good, but it was still an ongoing thing for about 3 generations.

Holy crap Gen III looks bad when put next to Gen II, what the fuck? Dat nice warm green vs. bland ugly cold blue. And then GF decided to stick with that color scheme? OP, you have really discovered something big here.

Agree, the old games were just as much visualized mentally.. And it was a fulfilling experience, while nowadays it feels like a superficial experience.

Oh shit, there's only one type of grass in the world.
But yeah, Hoenn's grass is pretty weird and ugly, but that kind of grass if I'm not wrong it's only inside areas with a lot of trees, maybe they wanted to do a shadow effect

I loved Gen 1/2 but let's be real we were kids when we played it. I bet the kids playing XY right now are doing crazy shit with their imaginations and will say the same shit about gen whatever when they are the same age as us.
