Just because it's in Japanese, doesn't make it good.

it took until HGSS for the second portion of the English logos (e.g. Gold, Emerald, Platinum) to be more than just a white font with black outline text

I guess one good thing about the English version is that they all use the same design for the “Pokemon” part of the logo, instead of changing fonts and colors all the time like Japan does. Makes it more boring, but also makes it instantly recognizable.

Also, Jesus, I never noticed how bland the Eng logos for Pokemon were until HGSS, just using the same fond. Even when they finally try styling with HGSS, it's not as nice as the JP ones.

I think they recognized that the logo really wasn't supposed to be the exciting part, since it's seen in the context of box art and the box art is the part that draws in the eye.

They're both cheap. The Japanese seem to think a ton of outer strokes, embossing, and effects make a good logo.

XY was when gamefreak took control of their English titles because localization was done at the time of release. They probably did not want "version", unlike tpci's homogenized nonsense

Dude the difference is obvious.
Look at the flared tips of the Japanese lettering. The contrast between the yellow and red instead of sort of brown and orange. That's the key.
Are you really a graphic designer?

TPCi only started translating the games starting with BW, Nintendo usually handled localization before that. I'm pretty sure TPCi has handled the translations since Gen 5.

So what I'm seeing here is that if the English logo could find a better way to show "Pokemon" we could get some slick logos. The cartoonish blue and yellow nature of the brand name is what's actually holding the design back.
