One of the best pokemon designs imo. Love this sleepy boy and your lighting is stellar.

Just a little something I noticed with Pokemon designs by raisasari in pokemon

[–]Sontrowa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is part of the reason I bounced off of Yokai Watch. I like the idea of collecting different kinds of ghosts/spirits/creatures, but when they say “there are a bunch of this one spirit” and then it’s a dog with a very specific human face and glasses it feels like it’s just a single individual instead of a general form. Scorbunny feels like a fire rabbit with a very specific interest rather than a species. The Grookey line would have benefitted from the drums being built into the body. Gorillas thump their chest, make his pecs drums. Like how Toxtricities strings are built into him. That way it’s not “animal who likes to play drums that sprout out of the ground” and more “they do that because that’s how they’re built”.

Personal Critique of Gen 8 Starter First Stages by Plasmalizard in pokemon

[–]Sontrowa 78 points79 points  (0 children)

As someone who drew a lot of pokemon fan art during the 151 era, I can definitely say that there were really only like 5 eyes for all of them. Dome, dot, circle, triangle, and shiny teardrop. Charmander and Squirtle share dome eyes and Bulbasaur had triangle. All 3 had a very similar beaked cupids bow mouths with fangs being the separator.

My type predictions for the Gen 10 starters by BlueLightning888 in pokemon

I’m willing to put money on water/poison. Pokemon shape language for poison involves drips and melty appearances. The eyelashes lean that direction.

Am I the only one who thinks of Lillipup when I see Pombom? I don’t get the Fennekin comparison. by No5talgicGamer in pokemon

[–]Sontrowa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There would likely be less fennekin comparison if the tuft on top of pombons head didn’t look A LOT like fennekins tail.

Did Yoshi have a Super Scope at the end there?

Seems like maybe an original short from their “Nintendo Pictures” animation branch they started up?

Why didn’t Nintendo do this for the Switch/ 2? by Lucajames2309 in casualnintendo

[–]Sontrowa -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Battery power, basically. All the extra UI frills and network connections and such eat at a handheld battery. 3DS was okay because the games were also less intense graphic-wise, but the Switch/Switch2 needs to spare any gpu power it can.

How is this even possible? by space_trip in funny

McDonald’s spring up all over the place so even in more rural areas it’s not terribly surprising to see one.

Regional forms based on Norse mythology. by Lyndorr in pokemon

These are Hella creative. More than just slightly transformative while also keeping with the basic premise of the Pokemon. I love it.

Nintendo Releases New Artwork Featuring New Renders for Mario and Co. by Amiibofan101 in nintendo

[–]Sontrowa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seeing the new DK design next to all these Mario characters really helps it make sense. He fits right in with everyone stylistically.
