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?

Monzae October 21st, 2007 6:43 AM

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)

diamondpearl876 October 21st, 2007 6:56 AM

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

Ivysaur October 21st, 2007 7:10 AM

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

SilencedShooter October 21st, 2007 12:42 PM

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

Amoeba October 21st, 2007 11:12 PM

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.

Binary October 22nd, 2007 3:42 AM

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

Improfane October 22nd, 2007 5:33 AM

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.

Klingon October 22nd, 2007 5:51 AM

I would say dig was boring; to be fair.

Te-em October 22nd, 2007 3:00 PM

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.

Tanooki October 22nd, 2007 6:01 PM

Wrap and Constrict.

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

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ October 24th, 2007 3:42 PM

I'm also going with Bubblebeam, basically all of the Water attacks were horrible to me,



:t354:TG

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

Sammi October 25th, 2007 9:08 AM

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.

Shadowz October 25th, 2007 9:23 AM

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

-Amso-

Te-em October 25th, 2007 10:13 AM

Just turn the animation off.

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

/sarcasm off

Te-em October 26th, 2007 6:23 AM

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.

Me too. I'm reading this and thinking "I liked that sound..." Glad someone else agrees with me. I hated Surf. So. Much. And Hydro Pump stunk. Lame.

Sasami Kawai October 27th, 2007 2:31 PM

Surf is stupid. It has dumb animation and the sound sucks.

Synyster October 27th, 2007 4:35 PM

The sound of the pokemon coming out of the balls.
The cries (Oh god, they made my ears bleed.)
Bubblebeam's sound effect.
And the scratchiness of the battle music.

Karasu October 27th, 2007 4:40 PM

Acid was the worst sounding, hands down.

I have to agree with you of the bubblebeam sound. You're not alone in the oddball world. Surf was just plain weird too. The bubblebeam sound sounds better if the super effective sound were to be next.
