    Pokémon Gen 5’s moving sprites aren’t as bad on their native console because the smaller screen size makes it much harder to notice the issues with the sprites when they move. Blowing them up makes the issues much more noticeable.

      there's no real problem with it either way, the sprites were designed and animated for the console they were going to be put into. If gamefreak had the time and willingness to do another sprite based pokemon game now, they'd probably fully animate all the mons using frame by frame, and also have highly detailed pixel art on top of that.
      for the console it was designed for, the sprites and animations are pretty damn good honestly.

    I honestly prefer the Gen 5 sprites over the new 3d models. The sprites just look more expressive and unique when compared to their stiff, soulless models. They're brimming with personality. It also doesn't help that the flying Pokémon look absolutely terrible in the newer games, especially Charizard, Salamence, and Xatu. DistantKingdom has a great video detailing why the flying 3d models are terrible.

    For me the biggest victim of color saturation is Gengar. If you look at Gengar's older sprites, it's a much darker shade of purple, to the point where there's actually a noticable difference between it's regular and shiny sprite, especially in gen 3. But as you said, color saturation transformed Gengar to look more like it's shiny so there's hardly any difference now.

    • @fusionwing4208
      @fusionwing4208 4 місяці тому +1

      I hate how so many shiny mons are just slightly saturated or desaturated color schemes honestly. I fully agree with gengar, the older games gave him this pretty dark purple while his shiny was borderline black in color. Legends Arceus did a pretty good job more recently (although the shiny could be a tad darker).

    White Pokedex entry: it runs better than it flies. It takes off into the sky by running at a speed of 25 mph.
    UM Pokedex entry: Said to be an ancestor of bird Pokémon, the muscles it uses to flap its wings are still weak, so it needs a long runway in order to take off.

    I actually kinda like the old Moltres better than the new one. Mostly probably because the gen 1 sprites are less detailed than the other sprites, so Moltres just generally fits better, but also it looks more royal for some reason to me, while normal Moltres looks just like you lit a rubber chicken on fire.

    If I may offer an argument to your stance on Gen 5, sprites...
    1. The sprites were made with the DS screen size in mind, and your complaints are a lot harder, if not impossible to notice on a DS.
    2. It was the logical next step for the battle system. Gen 5 tried as hard as possible to differentiate from Gen 4, and this including changing up the battle interface. If the camera was to move without moving sprites, there would be complaints similar to Sword and Shield's battles: That they're too static. The increased battle speed and moving sprites make the battles more exciting, if only by a little bit.

    9:20 this is due to non integer scaling, something you can actually see throughout the game, not just in the pokemon sprites (if you haven't noticed sometimes characters might have different sizes of eyes, or straight up lose detail as they are further away)
    This would have been fixed had they kept the same engine going into the 3ds Era. Sadly... no.

    I am very gen 5 biased, so I think they look awesome, I remember playing soul silver a year after I got pokemon black, and I felt that the stationary statues weren't lifelike, which is one of the reasons why I like pokemon BW and the remakes, they're more lifelike.
    Edit: in bw2 they fixed some of the sprites and gave the starters, and other pokemon updated sprites, like phanpy was fixed in bw2 I know for a fact

    His flames are off outside of battle, but are now CONSTANTLY out during battle. Literally the perfect execution of a 3D Typhlosion model.
