>>44743590I think his point is that people tend to ignore bad designs of old gens, but focus on bad designs in new gens, and i think thats a valid point.
Imagine if these three for instance came out today, then people would shit on them too
>"Oh woooow, gamefreak lets just make a ball and give him eyes, really cool and unique. Oh and look his evolution is just the same ball with different eyes, how creatively bankrupt can you be? Also fucking look at that, its just eggs. I hate that GF is just doing joke designs nowadays, like, 'look imagine fighting cool and serious monsters, but suddenly eggs! Isn't this le funny?' God i miss the old, serious designs."I still think that Sword and Shield are a new low for the series, but we need to stop pretending like the old gens were this holy grail, since a lot of problems that plague modern Pokemon were already there back then.
