minor pet peeve that bothers no one else but i hate when people do gen 1-style pokemon sprites and they think that means you make them look crappy and weird

[eizneckam]

gen 1's sprites didn't look badly drawn for the most part. what made them look odd was that many of them were off-model, because they were drawn by about 10 different artists over the course of 10 years, and because there were no models - ken sugimori's iconic art was only created after the games came out, and he based his drawings off of the sprites, rather than the other way around

many of the gen 1 sprites look perfectly fine, if only with a tendency toward chunkiness

an example of some rg sprites that are near-identical to the final design:

and a number more are mostly the same with only minor tweaks:

(namely, squirtle and dodrio's eyes being fully black, and beedrill and gengar's bodies being kinda chunkier)

even the most silly looking rg sprites are merely kinda a little wonky rather than outright bad

(vileplume's sprite having bad perspective and wigglytuff's eyes being mismatched)

i guess it's such a silly little thing to get annoyed about but i think it's because i really feel the original sprites had a lot of charm even if they weren't as polished and so seeing people constantly crap on them is just irritating

Mini gen 1 set by Ken Sugimori from the 1997 CD “Game Boy Pokemon Sound Complete Set”, some of them also apperaed in the 1998 “Pokémon Journal” flyer and as assets in the original GF site. Scanned and enhanced by us.

I never understood the S.S. Anne Captain sprite as a kid. It never read as a beard to me. I guess I thought he was so sick he was blowing bubbles. Or maybe that bubble gum helped with sea sickness.

Satoshi: “Hey Ken! Did you send those model sheets to Kosaku-kun?” Ken: “…ehum…”

More off-model pokemon by Kosaku Anakubo, published in the first episode of the Pocket Monsters manga published in the April 1996 issue of CoroCoro Comic’s sister magazine, CoroCoro Special.
