I think Haunter has had pretty good sprites throughout all the games. Even its Red/Green is great and possibly my favorite out of all of them. |
They were a bit lazy with Honchkrow's Gen V sprites. All they did was add a wing in Platinum and HG/SS:

Platinum and HGSS aren't gen V, but I do agree that they could have done better. All they did was take its DP animation and pause it and said "THAT'S IT. THE PLATINUM SPRITE."

What is Weezing made of? By the sprite, it looks like Rock.
And why are the sizes of its head swapped occasionally? |
Quote:
and did you read what weezing is? it is the poison gas pokemon, it is essentially a balloon filled with poisonous gas |

i like yellow for early pokemon sprites, and fire red/leaf green for new pokemon sprites. i like r/s/e for the trainers though. they're so soft and cute. *pokes edited rse aroma lady avatar*

Also I noticed in HG/SS it seems that Feraligatr and Blastoise changed colors kind of...Well its not how I remembered it. Feraligatr is a little brighter than I thought, and Blastoise's blue color seems just off o.O;; I noticed it yesterday. Can we all agree Charizard had a really awkward pose in R/B? It just looks weird XD |
As a fan on Vulpix I have noticed many changes in its sprites.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you :
One of my personal fav. Johto Pokemon, AMPHAROS ! G:http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/c/c5/Spr_2g_181.png Cute Fluffy Plushie ! =D S:http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/f/f7/Spr_2s_181.png Awwww... You want me to hug you ? :) C: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/9/94/Spr_2c_181.gif This is even cuter than before (Gold animation) RSFRLG :http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/8/8f/Spr_3r_181.png You lost your cuteness (and your balance too !) :( E: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/e/e5/Spr_3e_181.gifThis destroyed you, darling ! WTF shining lights ? DPPt :http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/04/Spr_4d_181.png Cute pose ! :x But still no fluffy round and big eyes ! :-X HGSS :http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/a/ae/Spr_4h_181.png Weir looking pose... never seen an Ampharos like this one. Conclusion : Ampharos lost its cuteness over the years. DPPt promised something which HGSS ruined (wtf 2 :weird looking feet). I'm hoping for a better future ! :) |
I totally 100% agree with you about Amphy. Used to be the cutest little thing! :) Now it is not hunched over and cuddly, but stretched out and like.... blugh. |
One thing always threw me off...
How come http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/rbspr/rbspr048.pnghttp://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/rbspr/rbspr012.png wasn't the correct evolution path? EVERYTHING is similar on them. XD And then http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/rbspr/rbspr010.pnghttp://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/rbspr/rbspr011.pnghttp://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/rbspr/rbspr049.png V on Cater's head grew, the tail is now on the ends of the wings, and his arms grew. Just always Flabbergasted me. |
We all got there 12 years ago, mate. ;)

I randomly decided to analyse Mr. Mime's sprite, and how it has changed. :P
http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen1/green/122.pngThe Green sprite... wait, is it hiding? :P http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen1/green/122.png The Red/Blue sprite. Mr. Mime looks quite fat here. It's eyes look really... wierd too. :O http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen1/yellow/122.png The Yellow sprite. It looks really... discoloured and bad. Plus, is it trying to give me a high-five, or "touch" me. ;_; http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen2/gold/122.png The Gold Spri... face me when I'm talking to you! >_< Yeah, it looks pretty average and MS Paint-like. :\ http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen2/silver/122.png The Silver Sprite looks very... stupid and all i can say is derp. :P http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen2/crystal/122.gif The Crystal sprite... or the Gold sprite animated. xD It's making a wall. Finally, it's doing something! :D http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen3/rusa/122.png The Ruby/Sapphire sprite. Also, no more animations. ;_; Yeah, it's pose is pretty generic, it's shoes look dodgy and so does its right hand. :\ http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen3/frlg/122.png The FireRed/LeafGreen sprites. To me, it looks like the Ruby sprite flipped with a few differences. :\ Pretty poor, imo. At least they fixed the colours... http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen3/rusa_action/122.gif Mr. mime can do Teeter Dance??? :\ Pretty poor animation. It's... dancing... At least it's not randomly flashing/growling like most of the other sprites. :\ http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen4/dp/122.png Diamond/Pearl's Mr. mime sprite. For Mr. mime, the wierd mime Pokemon, it looks quite cute with its happy smile. I actually really like this sprite! :D http://media.pldh.net/pokemon/gen4/hgss/122.png HG/SS sprite. It looks worse than Diamond/Pearls imo. It's not smiling anymore. ;_; Yeah, not as good as D/P. :\ |
Hm... ESPEON TAIMZ

@Koratah Lol, the RB Cubone sprite has always made me think of a cow. I have to look to see the Cubone there X3
Man, what happened to Ninetales? It used to seem so epic and elegant, but in recent games it's kind of generic and 'meh' looking. It must be the poses. HGSS is getting somewhere except the face is kind of boxy. Couple fewer pixels on the chin would have been a bit better. Spoiler:
Also, anyone else think it's kind of strange that all the 'animations' after Crystal seem like they've had way too much coffee? That or Hoenn and Sinnoh must suffer a lot of earthquakes. It seems they rely less on actual animating and more on shaking/rotating/transforming and use only like 2 actual 'frames'. Kinda cheating if you ask me. :/ |
HGSS Rhyhorn doesn't even look like Rhyhorn. :( And that has to be the most color problems I've seen through the years. That poor thing is a different color every generation, isn't it?
I agree on the Emerald and DP animations. Platinum and HGSS did better than that, though. Growing in size and flickering around doesn't count as an animation for me. Also, with those Ninetales sprites, as the years went on, it just looks like they made the tails longer, but didn't have any room for them and crammed them in. So yeah, it's not looking as elegant as it used to. |
Interesting, I wanna try some:

So, Mew went from this:http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/3/38/Spr_1g_151.png (I mean, what is that?)
To this: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/5/50/Spr_4h_151.png Big improvement. |
I agree on mew, thats a big improvement. :/
One of the Best, from RBY to HGSS: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/1/1b/Spr_1b_059.png original R/B, one of the best looking ones in my opinion http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/4/41/Spr_2s_059.png Silver sprite, even better http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/4/44/Spr_3r_059.png FR/LG, A step back i think, not much personallity http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/a/a8/Spr_4d_059.png DPPT, still not a sprite befiting an awesome poke. :/ dumb pose http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/05/Spr_4h_059.png Sprite Perfection. |
I noticed Generation 3 reused Generation 2 back sprites.
Example: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/6/63/Spr_b_g2_001.png http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/00/Spr_b_g3_001.png They were only recolored to look better, but still the same sprites. XD |
