I honestly don't think he's a bad person. His designs aren't that terrible. But he'll be known as the "art director in one of the shittiest games in the series"
A really really unfortunate time for him to be the art director.

It's a known strategy in businesses. When big losses are anticipated you put a token diversity scapegoat in charge so they can be blamed when it goes downhill.

I knew everything was ruined when they announced this guy was the art director, I mean pokemon is a Japanese franchise who the fuck would think is a good idea giving the main job to a non Japanese artist?

But the only thing wrong with the game is the Kanto shilling in the wild area

To be fair, the games would have been terrible regardless of Turner.
He just has the misfortune of being placed in a PR role for a potentially controversial set of games.

It's not like being art director has much of an effect on overall quality, sane people understand that (and certainly employers do in case he decides to be based and ditch GF)

I highly doubt that being an art director has anything to do with the whole Pokemon Home thing

He might not have as much power as people think. He might just oversee the designs somewhat, and quality check, but that's really about it.
He has NO impact on the gameplay, and content side of things, which is where most of the problems originate from.

Exactly my thoughts as soon as I learnt about the Galar pokemon only thing. I really hope they fix this stuff in an eventual 3rd version, just so he can clean his name from that undeserved bad rep.

They call him Jamie in the Pokemon Direct too, it's his nickname.

This. There are fans with more creative talent in their pinkie fingers than Turner has in his entire body.

There are tons of great non-Japanese Pokemon artists. James Turner can barely draw.

But the bland landscapes you see are one hundred percent possible to blame on the game's main art director. He's literally in charge of it.

because nips are retarded and can't pronounce James. If you noticed almost every word in japanese has to end with a vowel sound so you end up with "Je-ma-su" or just "Je-mi"
