Is anyone else getting alienated from the series after the weird experimental games and art direction? The pokemon in swsh and legends looks like dogshit and now we have barbie doll protags. They're tring to appeal to everyone while appealing to nobody

yes, and I stopped buying the games because of it.

>WTF GameFreak, why do you keep shitting out the same game for the past 8 generations? You're not even adding all the Pokemon anymore!
>No! Stop experimenting and changing up the formula! I want the core gameplay to be the same as Pokemon RBY!

i still honestly think pokken had a good art direction and it's dumb as shit that they aren't returning to it, though idk how practical it is to have that level of detail on ~400-600 mons (no, not full dex)
>inb4 sv texture changes
SV is like a fraction of pokken detail
that all said, i think it's somewhat promising that they're experimenting and trying to change things instead of just rolling with the same shit - and some locations in swsh don't even look that bad, some just stick out as RANCID

I don't think the problem was that it was the same moreso that it wasn't as good anymore. I like the more open aspects but I don't like losing most of the roster and features to have it.

Pokken looked pretty cool yeah. But then there's spin-offs like unite and go with weird looking trainers and it's starting to leak into the main games

legends was a tech demo though, not really "better"

yeah, the weird thing with the detailed spin-offs is that any time humans are involved in 3D, they end up looking somewhat uncanny as a result
pokemon honestly doesn't look bad with a pseudo cel shaded animesque look, the artstyle just needs to be consistent overall in a single game, it can't be like legends where it's plastic toys in a detailed environment or some areas in swsh where you're just playing through an n64 tech demo
tbdesu one style i'd like to see is a guilty gear/dbxenoverse like 3D anime style, i think it could work if they got the right guys

90% of Pokémon designs since gen 4 have looked like shit
