This is one from his interviews:
"Sugimori was also asked what his favorite Pokemon is, and his answer is something any budding artist can sympathize with. "Gengar, because it doesn't require many lines and is easy to draw."

Sugimori doesn't gives a fuck about good designs anymore, he only cares about what's easy to draw".

I'd argue that simplicity in designs is more of Pokemon's appeal. Hence stupid crap like "muh Digimon and muh overdesigned"

Yeah, Gen1 designs were simple and appealing, but modern designs are even simpler which makes them more forgettable because they all lack distinguishable features.

All Gen1 and Gen2 pokemon were redesigned to be simpler in Gen3 so he's technically right.

Isn't Sugimori halfway retiring from Pokemon already? He doesn't even design the protags anymore.

to which I say while not mutually exclusive, the problem lies with the art style far more than it does the designs

Considering what we know about the design processes behind Gen 1 and Gen 7 (that come to mind for me at least)
I really doubt he did character design beyond unifying them into a cohesive art style

New Pokemon are clearly objectively better designed and by far more creative, no ifs, ands, or buts
