>>56113961most of the images you posted are literal hallways like the old fairy gym leader's town, the wild area, the crown tundra and the isle of armor look like ass.
Not defending paldea because there's no thinking about the overworld, they just made the most generic routes and biomes possible to handle the open world
>>56113963the anime style is subjective, the "realistic" designs probably the npcs from the base game your referring are due to lazyness, Sonia, Nessa and Bea have bad 3d models but you're not complaining about them
