>>45295177It made every Pokemon feel iconic, like it was part of an official pantheon of a real world. Now it's too obvious that some are just.... churned out as products. But I'm sure certain ones like Volcarona and Tyrantrum, or even some of the new ones like maybe..... well idk, Centiskorch? Would still look good in the old style. It makes me yearn for a watercolor game or at least a sprite-based game someday
