Ho-oh - Cursed throughout generations. Also, the returning Plat. sprites.
Serebii now has the new Ho-oh sprite.
I feel bad for the bird. In every sprite it had excluding Silver, its wings are in that weird position. When will it not have that? It just makes all of Ho-oh's sprites look the same, except for different leg positions. Also, Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina's sprites were shown. Its such a shame that Nintendo just took sprites from Platinum instead of making new sprites. Your thoughts on Ho-oh and the Plat. sprites' returning? |
Platinum sprites make sense. No need to remake all 210 Pokemon yet again. Only ones that would change are the ones of the Kanto/Johto evolution expansion lines.
|
I actually liked some of the Platinum sprites for the Hoenn and Sinnoh Pokemon. I don't mind if they use the same sprites as long as the Kanto and Johto pokes were remade. Ho-oh's sprite was kind of a disappointment, but it still looks nice. (Have you noticed that the back sprites of the starters still look the same as DPPt's?) They probably wanted to keep that "Heart" look for Ho-oh. I like how they made its overworld and the background behind it on top of Tin Tower. (I really like those Ho-oh statues.) There's nothing I can do about it so I won't complain.

I won't even be using Hoenn or Sinnoh pokemon in the remakes so I don't care if they keep the same sprites for those pokemon.

It's fine with me if they don't want to remake ALL the sprites. They can leave some of the Sinnoh and Hoenn sprites the same, I suppose. And I liked the Platinum sprites, too. I would like to see the Kanto and Johto pokemon sprites remade a little, though.
|
honestly i never really cared for ho-oh
and one of the reasons was lack of originality, for the sprite |
I've always liked Ho-oh (though his face always looks angry) but I agree that they really need to make a new pose for it, mhmm...
|
I'm 100% sure that all 251 Kanto and Johto Pokemon will get new sprites
27 Hoenn Pokemon got new Sprites in Platinum(The ones in the Sinnoh dex), as did all 107 Sinnoh Pokemon So, we'll most likely see: -251 Completely new Sprites -134 Platinum Sprites -108 Diamond and Pearl Sprites (The remaining Hoenn Pokemon) |
sprites dont make any difference to me, as long as i can tell the pokemon apart ;)
|
That's surprising Ho-oh, as a version mascot, doesn't get a new sprite, but I like the Platinum sprites anyways, so it's all good.
|
I don't like the Ho-Oh one that much..
It's wings look, weird. The Dialga and Palkia ones look, almost, exactly, the same. |
it's wings were weird. hopefully heartgold and soulsilver do a better job on it.
|
The wings are up like last time, which shows a lack of creativity. Though, I'm pleased that they changed the legs and the other parts. If you've seen the other Ho-oh sprites, then you should know that the only Ho-oh sprite that doesn't have the wings up is the one for siver. Maybe GameFreak is satisfied with Ho-oh facing towards you with the wings up or they had trouble reposing it. Though, I agree with Gymleaderlily about how cool the background of the top of Tin Tower looks like.

At any rate, I like the new sprites, and it's ok if they just rip the platinum ones. most won't make much a difference anyway. The only ones people will really gripe about will be the local 'Dex ones, and maybe some others. Ho-Oh's was always weird to me, it's not really worse now. |
every pokemon in the Johto Dex will have a new sprite, and the rest will simply have their old platinum sprites which is the same case in platinum were the pokemon not in the platinum dex had their DP sprites, so it was pretty much expected... and for the ho-oh thing, i think its an anime thing why its sprite is always in that pose, but ya i do agree i did get board of that pose and would like to see another :P...
|
Let's see...

There is nothing wrong with ho-oh`s pose. It has been like that because.. 1 - It looks sacred which is the main idea around ho-oh 2 - It is the only way to fit it inside the sprite frame and still look cool |
I hope that in HG/SS that the sprites move when you send them out. Like in platinum.
Also Ho-Oh's sprite dosen't bother me much. |
well theres not alot of ways to show all of ho-oh's feathers and its whole body except by sprites like its current one
|

Ho-oh is still cool. I like its wings like that. If they closed them, it would look similar to Moltres. At least the coloring for it looks a lot better in HGSS. |
I think Ho-Oh looks amazing in any pose. It pretty much owns everyone anyway.

I think the Silver version of Ho-oh looks way worse I do hope they make different sprites like they did in G/S, but I know thats not going to happen, GF is too lazy :t354:TG |
