>>33080896I think I know why most people dislike his designs, they really are way to western for Pokemon. The ones you could see still being designed by japs would be the Golurk line and maybe Phantump, but you see the western influence in the others quite clearly. That's why some think that they don't feel like Pokemon.
>Buzzwole literally looks like a comic superhero/villain, even flies like one>Vanilluxe line looks like something out of some trippy western cartoon episode>Guzzlord looks like a carved pumpkin monster>Trevenant is your cliche spooky tree with a scary face used in so many old stories and cartoons>Braviary and Mandibuzz are literally the most western birds, with Mandibuzz looking like it's straight from the FLEENTSTONESI dunno, if they wanna continue Ultra Beasts James should do all their designs, because they are intended to look weird and off, this is exactly what he succeeds best at.
