Anyone else miss sprites? Not that there aren't tons of shitty ones in gen 1, but the use of sprites meant the artists could heavily stylize the pokemon and give them cool poses and inject a ton of personality. In the new games they all have soft, smooth, flat colored models that just stand there in a very neutral sort of pose and they're honestly pretty dull to look at

Not that they -couldn't- make the models more dynamic and interesting, but they definitely don't seem to be trying very hard
