Did it work?

Gen 3 had a lot of good designs, so yeah.

Gen 3 was the beginning of the downfall of this franchise.

>>He thought that gen 2 was too cutesy
did Sugimori himself say that or was that just the fan reception, because if its the former that would explain why Game Freaks seems to hate Gen 2 Pokemon for some reason

Pokemon are depicted as beasts and pets, so it's perverted to design them to look human.

He said that the gen 2 pokemon were cutesy and simple to be easier for animators and merchandise to handle but decided to go against that for gen 3.

Did we watch the same video? Just saw this yesterday

It wasn't about being darker, but about being humanoid and Digimon-like.

woops, I () missed your post. Had the thread open for a while searching for the video and didn't refresh before posting.

>Team Rocket was considered to have originated in Mossdeep
>There is indeed a beta with early designs
Given what we do know about RS's development history, Latiken would have been designed around some time between Movie 3's Japanese release and Crystal's release.

And here some schizos insists that the zodiac references was intentional lmao

This would've been too good of a Pokemon.
Chase Campbell
yes.
Blaziken is better looking than any pokémon from gen 2 (which isn't a big feat considering Johto had the worst pokémon by far)

I think what Sugimori meant was gen 2 were marketable with the pokecraze in mind while gen 3 he basically went back to gen 1 style design philosophy but with y2k type shit.
Ryan Watson
Is it like that? Latias and Latios look several steps away from being gen 2 mon. They look like Skarmory and Lanturn merged.
Sebastian Moore
Very delusional.
Almost every Gen 2 Pokemon mogs "it's a fire elemental chicken but it's also anthro"
Chase Perry
