Gen 3 took away the watercolor flavor that seemed to breathe life into the art.
Gen 5 pushed the designs into a more cartoony sense with things like Archeops and Hydreigon, but the Dream World art accentuated this change of feeling.
Gen 7 pushed things to be wackier since 3D became expected to bear the natural appearance, allowing things like Lycanroc Midnight Form and Litten's final evo with their questionable proportions in 2D.
