@8-bit pepe i don't think it was actually supposed to be but its index number indicates that it was added in pretty late into Ruby and Sapphire's development
8-bit pepe yeah, today I am fixing some of Emeralds(also RSFRLG but Emerald is first), bad sprites with Gen 4 and 5 sprites and Chimeco was the last one and I was like dude wtf
poiuyt yes but in for example HGSS on the route after Violet City, there are wild Mareeps, which have a LONG ASS ANIMATION. I had to suffer seeing those animations just to find a male Mareep
I honestly prefer the FRLG Pidgeot, has the smug smile insead of a weird-looking glare, oh and the fact that I commonly see FRLG Pidgeot more than RSE's Pidgeot considering it's rare and it's only seen in the battle frontier, because of that, I'm more accustomed to the FRLG Pidgeot, but that's not saying RSE Pidgeot is bad or anything, still has it's greatness imo.
I don't know if I fully agree. I think it's case by case. I can't in good conscience say that Ratata and Wartortle look better in gen 3. I think Mewtwo and Mew look slicker and better designed in gen 4, too. But I much prefer Lombre and Seedot's gen 3 sprites... Definitely case by case for me.
Ngl I’m surprised, I actually prefer some of the gen 3 animations to the gen 4 ones. Obviously in a technical level the sinnoh animations are better, but some gen 3 ones just have a little more character imo. Like Clefairy, Venomoth, Diglett and magnemite! Bonus goofy mentions for Dodrio, Seel, Chinchou and Heracross. Another thing I noticed is that in gen 3 the animations almost always have a kind of ‘lipsync’ that matches their cry, but this was lost a lot in gen 4. Same for blinking eyes, there aren’t many sprites with those or open mouths. Kinda detracts imo
Eh I disagree a lot of the gen 3 sprites are really bad and I wouldn’t want to use them bc they r so bad. Specifically Salamanca and Babette are really bad
I feel like the gen 3 animations (Emerald) are a lot more powerful giving the player the "sense of being alive" of the pokemons, by simply stretching or bouncing. idk maybe it's just my gba nostalgia
Why is there no video compiling Platinum's backsprite animations? Platinum was the first game with actual backsprite animations that weren't just effects like in Emerald/DP
Can someone explain why most of the 3rd gen sprites look so much better in most cases? They feel like they're "cleaner", but I can't put my finger on it (for example Umbreon)
I don't know how you thought this worked but the way they make the sprite animation is by drawing two frames and flipping between them while squashing and stretching them. that's just how it works for all of them.
A lot of the animations in Emerald are better than in Diamond and Pearl, but the sprite quality and colors are so much better on Diamond and Pearl that it makes up for some of the bad animations imo.
11:21 Oh god Heracross looks… If you don’t know what I mean turn the speed to .25 speed In emerald the Pokémon switch sprite colors to the next Pokémon after them for a split millisecond What makes heracross have black skin and red eyes 🎈
if you pause at the right time, youll see that right before the gba sprite changes to the next one, it becomes purple and glitchy like other than that this is incredible
Or, even better, more stylized pokemon games. The current 3d games dont have much going for their visuals, so I feel making them stylized, like the pmd remake was, would make them look so much better
Hard agree on the personality thing for some models. Sword and Shield's models and textures for the Pokemon, despite some of the overworld ones being inconsistent, were really lively, and the way they implemented the designs and already-existing animations of certain Pokemon into their attacks for Gen 8 (Scorbunny and Carkol's Flame Charges) were really nice! I wish they would make new animation rigs for Pokemon like Marshtomp, Chesnaught, or the Typlosion line, who have pretty lackluster animation cycles and attack animations, so that way more of those better quality animations seen in Sword and Shield (and even Sun and Moon to an extent) could be present.
Electrike gen 3 animation: 2 seconds Electrike diamond and pearl animation: 6 seconds I MEAN LITERALLY DP garchomp and electrike's animation were so long but they were just opening their mouth like 4 times
I really really love how some of the sprites like Linoone, Slakoth and Dustox has the same exact sprite as in both generations. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Well, it makes sense. DP was rushed; Emerald is a refinement of a game that had no animations.

I miss the personality the sprites had... The 3d models feel so dead in comparison. Oh whatd I give for more sprite based pokemon games.
Or, even better, more stylized pokemon games. The current 3d games dont have much going for their visuals, so I feel making them stylized, like the pmd remake was, would make them look so much better
Ikr? And how come the only 3D games with personality like the sprites weren’t made by gamefreak? (Pokémon Stadium and Coliseum.)
