>introduce a mechanic so bad that it permanently damages and scars the franchise for the next decade

What is the worst mechanic in Pokemon history, and why is it sky battles?

what op? are you saying you don't like retarded flying in place animations?

the real kicker is that 90% of the mons that have the stupid animations have standing animations for Amie/Refresh. is it so hard to use those as a base for new battle animations?

The worst part is in Amie it is standing, it's like they always find I way to make fun of our wishes

I will never, EVER forgive GF for this. People can go back and forth over animation/proportion/color nitpicks, but the fucking sky battle flying-in-place animations objectively ruined all affected Pokémon.

>>36772471
They ALL stand in Amie (save for the few that canonically have to be flying, like Crobat), which makes it ten times more frustrating. The only reason they're all still flying in battle is because their attack animations are made to transition from flying rather than standing, and GF doesn't want to go through and remake them.

Do you think it's a coincidence that all gen 6 pokemon had goofy-ass flying animations as their default in battle? Nothing at all to do with sky battles?

Yeah Sky Battles scarred the franchise to such an extent that I definitely didn't instantly forget they existed upon finishing Y for the first time. Such lasting damage yo.

All those retards who truly BELIEVE that.

These are 3D models which means they can be MODIFIED however GF wannts idiots. Thats why some flying mons dont fly in amie.

If GF just wanted to change their poses they would do it. This has NOTHING to do with Sky battles. You can do anything with models

Cant beleive its been 5 years since XY and idiots still say such bullshit. Educate first

How is it not impactful? Pokemon lives and dies on its character designs, and most flying Pokemon look awkward because of the bad animation they've had for five years now. If it was one off model, or if GameFreak bothered to make more natural animations after XY, I'd see your point. Again though, it's most flying Pokemon and GF is just recycling animations and models, so at least these past two gens have ugly flying animations and the effect could be even worse if they decide to recycle for gen 8.

Anon, you are unironically saying that some pokemon having goofy animations for their models makes a huge impact in the Pokemon franchise

I really don't mind most of the flying animations, but I dislike how the wings of a lot of mons look paper thin with no texture whatsoever. There's no depth to the models is the issue. If they don't rework all the models for Gen 8 (and I have no doubts that they will not), then that will be troublesome

I don't know what answer you're looking for here. Are you going to backpedal and declare that it doesn't matter because there's no /monetary/ impact, or because it doesn't effect the anime/card games it's not what you arbitrarily decide is a "huge impact on the franchise" (despite the games being the core of the franchise)?

There's an obvious drop in quality here, and it effects the character designs which are the lifeblood of the franchise. That's obviously a significant impact.

Just because they can do something with the models doesn't mean they will. All of the Kanto Pokemon shown in LGPE have the same pose and animations as in XY,
We are still stuck with the dumb flying animations.

You're the actual retard here.
The pokemon have shitty flying in place battle animations so that they didn't need a second set of animations made for sky battles. Since GF is too lazy to do the Tor redo the animations once sky battles are gone, we got stuck with those awful animations permanently.

All the flying pokemon already have standing animations. They don't change them because they don't fucking want to.

No because they'd have to create new battle animations for them but of course they don't give a *no pun intended* flying fuck
