Pokemon

The new Mega Evolution art has made me question what actually makes a “bad design”

So these are just a few of the Mega evolutions introduced in ZA that I personally just thought looked horrible. It made me feel like Pokemon forgot how to do their own gimmick, and design pokemon that are evolving and changing, instead of slapping new features onto the existing model…

Then the official art released, and now I feel so humbled. Not only does this make me feel like I need to question what makes a good megs design good, but I think it mire clearly illustrates to me why I think Pokémon truly is just a “2D Franchise”

They started 2D, the art rarely fails to hit for me, and the fan made sprites of the megas that I’ve seen are super appealing munch like the art above. It just still boggles me how these designs I was repelled by so hard, are now actually pretty amazing looking just by presenting them in a different format.

Just curious what other people think!
