>>31928052First things first: I despise Genwunners. I'd rather take the vastly, vastly, VASTLY improved game mechanics and ton of cool pokemon since then, especially since my new favorite pokemon comes from Gen VII.
That said, there's a certain style AND atmosphere Gen I had in art and its world's general feeling I quite adored. I wish I could explain it... is it the more prevailant feeling of Japanese influence? Sugimori's original art style? Being very slightly less kiddified (Gamblers as opponents, everyone using whips, etc.)? I can't say.
If I could see more post-Gen III pokemon in the old Gen 1 art style, I'd be a happy happy camper.
