Player characters need to be as devoid of personality as possible because any personality traits might make them less relatable to some people.

There's no reason to give them a "personality" if the games are gonna fall flat in every form of presentation

TIL that if you don’t act cocky or look brooding, you literally have no personality

Its not only MC, a lot of older art shows smug characters, gym leaders looking hostile. It was just aesthetics that newer generations avoids for muh kids.

This is pretty much ALWAYS the answer to “Pokémon was x now it’s y, why?” threads. Pokémon was, is, and will continue to be a product of its time.

That looks great, I’ve never seen this piece before. Pikachu even looks a bit more like his old self there.
