What happened to characters with amazing desings of the 90s?

Heck, 10 years ago we had Cynthia in Diamond and Pearl, probably the Pokemon character with best design.

Lillie was intentionally designed to have a simple design.

It paradoxically helps her to stand out among the crowd. You've got all these over-the-top anime characters, and there's this normal-looking blonde girl.

Cynthia was a champion, Lilie is just a little girl and her second outfit is just trying to normal after her weird family drama.

Also, Cynthia's design is trash.

Lillie's design isn't so much about being "simple" but being "your waifu".
Some characters look simpler than she does.

Gow does her design convey that at all? You could argue her role in the narrative possibly could but she literally has a very ordinary design, especially post development.

The design is based on the narrative. Like I said, there are characters that have simpler designs than Lillie does.

>What happened to characters with amazing desings of the 90s?
Those characters who also had fairly simple and effective designs, which tends to be a common genwunner argument? Pokemon designs are fairly overrated, they're good but because they're intended to have mass appeal.

Full Gen 4 babby, her emo/goth bitch design hasn't aged well outside its era.

Lillie has a good design. The clothe change was also good. I don't mind the character, it's good. And leaving the MC at the end of SM was perfect. The cutscenes problem was a game design matter. Not Lillie.

cynthia is another perfect example of why sugimori is a hack. she tends to look better in fanart as long as it doesn't go too far off-model.

nah he's right. pokemon designs used to be a lot more distinct but now we're starting a trend of literally my mom's anime girl with Lillie and Shield

In Shield's case its much worse because while Lillie is justified in having to fit into a stereotype, Shield is literally any old anime brunette. she's completely interchangable with that basic bitch Onodera from nisekoi

It's probably due to character customization requiring the MCs be a bit more generic. We'll need to wait until we see some more NPCs to be sure.

girls next door can look like almost anything

they just have to be youthful and attractive and literally every female protagonist would qualify.

Hilda is probably the single best example of the trope in pokemon.

Lillie does not have a simple design. She has an elegant design. What girl in real life do you know that dresses in primarily white and mostly modest clothes? Lillies theme is purity and that stands out in our modern world where so many female characters show skin.

no even after her ""character development"" she's a timid little basic bitch. a girl next door belongs to large social circles, treats nerds like the little virgins they are and gets fucked by entire packs of niggers

It was Nebby (legendary cheat) who gave life to Lillie. She did not do anything to grow on her own, Lillie is just filler character with Nebby in SM. she is bad character like Gladion depends Silvally (legendary cheat).
Honestly, best characters in SM are Yo, Mizuki, Hau.
