1st Gen Most Horrible Battle Animation in R/B/G

I hated Bubblebeam.
The noise it made just made me cringe.

Seriously, would someone like to remind me how long they took to make those games? 3 days?

Some of the sprites were shocking, but for me what really made me thank God for the newer versions was the upgraded battle anims.

I will give due credit for its' time, it was a pretty awesome game, but it is actually fun to poke fingers and laugh at older versions. xD

I'll have to agree about Bubblebeam. And it took about five minutes for it to actually finish up, too. >_<

Another one I never really liked: Sky Attack, Fly, basically anything that felt like it was a good idea to show glowing by streams of little white balls. I mean, okay, it works for something like Hidden Power, but for everything else?

HAH!
I agree.
Bubblebeam was truly appauling to more people than just me by the sounds. xD
Oh yeah, I hated those moves too. Sky Attack especially.. (missingno reference here)

I agree with the Bubblebeam thing. o_O That's my least favorite move ever now.. =(

Bubblebeam is going to get a special prize. I also hated Surf for being slow and boring. Water moves were really bad made.

Bubblebeam sounded like one of those cheap toy guns XD
I hated that sound effect, but pokemon was just starting out, so it was bound to be cheap, lol.

I always thought Mist looked cheap in RBY.

Bubblebeam
Surf
supersonic-it moved really weird

SURF.

When I first saw it I just thought.... Oo whaaaa? Wierd spray stuff topped with a hydro pump? That doesn't look anything LIKE surf...

I always liked bubblebeam though.

Yes the surf animation was really wierd.
I never liked none of the animations

I look forward for when Misty uses Bubblebeam, nobody else really uses that attack.

Worst animation has to be any physical attack where your Pokemon slides and the Pokemon blinks, lagging.

Favourite attack would probably be Razor Leaf or the ones that made the screen go black.

I would say dig was boring; to be fair.

I don't know which is the most horrible (except Biidaru using Water-Gun in D/P), but one I liked was 10manboruto (100,000 volts) in Green version. Because that animation is unique for Green version. I think that's the only animation that is different from the other colour games R/B/Y.

Wrap and Constrict.

Seriously, the animation on those is so lame. Plus their both terrible attacks.

I think both Bubble Beam and Bubble looked very well. It was Surf and Hydro Pump that looked bad.

I liked the Bubblebeam sound. T_T I'm such an oddball.

Surf was pretty bad. It was... weird. At least it was a good move.

Bubblebeam, surf and sky sttack annoyed me so much i actually broke my gba

Just turn the animation off.

What's the fun in that? The obvious solution would give us less to complain about.

/sarcasm off

I turn it off it the new games, too. The battles go a little quicker and most animations suck anyway. I don't want my Biidaru to spit water from its fur as a water-gun, or see my bird pokemon sending off whirlwinds when using a wing attack.
