I fucking hate how from SwSh on the charcaters are slowly turning into these weird fucking cartoon people who look nothing like half the NPCs in previous games. Try to find a character Opal looks natural sitting next to from any generation prior to 8, go on. You can't. She (along with a handful of other characters) is rendered in a completely different style from the rest of the characters in the games and they clash HEAVILY when placed next to each other. And from Galar on they continued that trend and it only got worse. From an art standpoint, the new games look like a literal dumpster fire.
Everything from the super simple environments with N64 style models and textures, to a weird art style shift for character design that only seems to effect like half the cast, to way too detailed Pokemon textures, to a lighting engine that makes everything look like play dough. All of this plus stuff like shitty map design and non functional cities and bad writing and lack luster animations. All of this shit fits together to make an absolutely abysmal game from an artistic stand point. Still somehow better than Galar, though.
