>>46452543The reason why animations are so shit isn't because they don't have them or can't make them, It's because they invented the 3-animation-system and never cared enough to remove it.
The 3-animation-system is a term I just made up to tell what gamefreak has been doing. Every pokemon has an animation for "standard attack", "strong physical" and "strong special" moves, and every move in the game has to have one of these three. So when an attack has "standard" value, the animation performed by the mon will be its standard animation ALWAYS, even if its strong physical animation is 100 times better.
GF is too lazy to change the animation SYSTEM not the animations themselves.
