VIDEO: Re-Designing GEN 1 Pokemon in the GEN 7 Style

Bah, they didn't need fixing! Bah! The jynx one is super weird. O_o Idk the others seemed unnecesary. I can't see how moltres needs fixing. xD Or any of them.

Unless there's something legitimately insensitive about a design, I don't really like a design being referred to as needing 'fixing'. This feels more like a 'what could have been'. I saw an interesting post on the difference between Gen 1 and modern Gen styles recently-- basically it came down to, 'gen 1 is more focused on realism' and 'modern is more focused on a cuter art style and simplicity', which is easier for kids to draw, them being the target audience.

Also Golbat is just perfect the way it is.

I agree. Ooh! I saw that too! It was so fascinating! It's like that thing that we all knew but couldn't really put our finger on. (Or me, anyway. xD) Yeah, "fixing" is a silly term to use in this circumstance. :P And yeah, the golbat is....really dumb. xD I much prefer regular golbat!

Well...Game Freak did try to fix Jynx many years ago. It just sucks that they haven't gone back and give it anything else as if they are trying to avoid that Pokemon as much as they can to avoid putting any attention on a possible bad moment.
