>>38911674Gen 6 and 7's cartoonish designs at least had something going on for them. Sure, they were simple and cutesy and whatever, but they had thought put into them, they had shapes, they had colors that didn't clash so awfully, that weren't the saturated mess these are.
These new Pokemon are literally balls and sticks. You know that "designs then vs now" image, which in some parts talks about feet being less detailed? The corgi doesn't even have the little lines separating the toes, it doesn't even have something as basic as that. This gen's designs are unironically simple shapes slapped together.
