Honestly the art looks a lot better than the in-game model, I kind of like how the mane is a storm cloud

The giraffe neck still looks weird and dumb though

In the concept art I get what they were going for.

I had only seen the ingame pic before and thought wtf.

Still pisses me off as that makes absolutely no fucking sense for the body structure of a predator and looks bloody stupid.

Yeah the 3D models just don't look good in the modern games imo. Pokemon looked better as sprites

The design in the art is actually pretty cool

But holy fuck the model is awful.

Yeah. Though if they kept them as sprites that opens a whole other can of worms.

If they kept them as sprites then people would be bitching that they're still using sprites in 2023 and ask why they haven't moved on to 3D models yet

Pokemon is the franchise that literally can't win with its own fanbase

It's a paradox mon which is a variation of an already existing one, they usually gain a new type and have different stats

Basically.

I do think the bigger compromise should be just celshade the Pokemon.

Scarlet/Violet spoilers

It's an ancient version, Scarlet/Violet involve time travel in their endgame area; Scarlet has Pokemon from the distant future, and Violet has Pokemon from the distant past. All of them are enhanced or prehistoric versions of existing species.

I agree, the artwork looks good enough. Still kind of a dumb design, but it works. But that model... Good god that looks stupid. Maybe because it's more squatter than the artwork implies. Idk, it looks awful in the actual game.

No Entei needs to be a stegosaurus it would be more ridiculous that way to have plates on his back.

This could actually look pretty cool if they make the plates into flames

You got that backwards I'm pretty sure >_>

Also I'm pretty sure it's heavily implied these Pokemon aren't actually "real" and are just peoples' imaginations made flesh.

Yeah thats the working theory more so considering if you think about the legends the legendary beasts were reborn from Ho-oh so having these dinosaurs versions dont make a lot of sense
