Does anybody else miss sprites? They had a certain charm to them that I can't really explain. I want to go back.

Like how they had dynamic poses? Yeah, I miss that aspect of having sprites.

I think I overall like the new animations and stuff the models gave us, but I do wish they posed them better sometimes.

Shit yeah, this. The 3D models look so lifeless out of Amie.

I kind of prefer sprites for the overworld too, but the way they improved the expressions and actions in ORAS makes me feel they can expand upon it a lot more.

Of course the sprites will never come back, but they could at least improve the shitty cgi and che color schemes.

I was playing White last night and after starting it up my first thought was how good everything looks.

Nah, I like the models, the attacking animations are fucking great.

Some of them are ehhh though. Like 80% of the flying mons in waiting animation. Their attacks are still great though.

Overall, I really liked the models in ORAS. The characters were expressive, it was a great improvement over XY. However, I do still miss sprites. At least they aren't completely gone.

trips confirm

Sprites were okay but the 3d models are a step forward. They're not perfect but they're improving and will likely continue to do so.

Really loved the sprites of gen3.
I remember finding a random Raikou in FRLG and my it literally send chills down my spine. That was really great as a kid because i had zero knowledge about Raikou being in this games. Just look at its sprite.

These six are my all time favorites sprites. They is something majestic and terrifying about them, i cant really explain what it is. Maybe those crazy eyes?

It was just such a great moment when they suddenly appeared on your screen (exept for Lugia und Ho-oh of course). Remember the first time when you encountered Latios? That one second before you could see the sprite in full color because the battle just began? Truely a great childhood moment. I miss sprites like that. In gen 4 they all looked different, not that terrifying anymore.

Maybe that is all just in my head because i am older now. All the magic is lost.

I miss the sprites from genIII and IV. They were colorful and full of dynamic poses, but were still accurate representations of the pokémon. Not a big fan of the moving sprites from gen V as their animations look like shit in my opinion.
The models have some potential, but right now they are just kind of boring. I still prefer them over the gen V sprites though,

I like the close-up they do when an opponent pokémon is sent out and the animation wild pokèmon do when the encounter message appears.

Yes, I wish the main games kept using sprites. When the shadow pokemon games and battle revolution came out, I was optimistic that they would keep using both in different games.

>tfw there will probably never be another pokemon game using sprites again

Red/Blue Mewtwo is also the only case where an old sprite is better than every sprite that followed.

My problems with the models is that they're all washed-out for some reason, and that some Pokemon have fucking retarded animations, like the ones that are always flying but not flapping their wings.

The models really need some more idle animations, just to spice things up and make them more interesting to look at.

Adopting a different pose after doing an attack, status move or something like protect would be sweet.

Don't sweat it, you can trust this board to have some contrarian to never like anything. If they do go back to sprites you can bet your ass there will be threads about how models are missed and how lovely they were

it's all the try and make it seem as much like the old sprites as possible, did you people play gen 5? they were at the very limit of what they could do with sprites, and it looked like shit.
gen 4 was the only gen that had really amazing looking sprites through out.

Sounds interesting. Assuming the customization aspect stays, otherwise XY isn't any different from gen 1.
