I don't think his outfit is that bad. It's not my favorite, of course.
Dunsparce has a point. I love Japanese fashion. I just don't like her hat. >.> <.< |
I liked the way his clothes looked in the originals, but these new clothes aren't too great I must admit. I haven't much of a problem, however, as fashion doesn't matter to me much.
If only he wore jeans with that hoodie... |
whats a NPC?-.-"
To me, I think that the clothes get worse and worse throughout the games :t354:TG |

I'd wear a backwards baseball cap. lol I may even wear it sideways like the youngster does in HGSS. XD I've seen the characters in Animal Crossing wear sideways caps. Also, like others have said, you're comparing Japanese fashion to American fashion. The decade is almost over. (Usually new fashions every decade.) Who knows? Maybe we'll start wearing over sized hats w/ bows and backwards baseball caps again. XD
|
I think they've made him like this so he would look more childish... just think all the trainers in the games are supposed to be 10 years old.... yet none of them look ten more like 16... but now look at the new heros they look like kids dont they?
|
Im going to have to disagree with you here, I personally like Gold's look and I hardly care what they look like. I've never cared too much about any of them except for Lucas. I felt a little left out because I always thought of Lucas as being gay. don't get me wrong, I have nothing against gay people, I even have gay friends, but I'm not gay and having my player character wear a a beret and scarf kinda killed it for me. I've never liked berets, not even on girls, and as for scarfs, well lets just say I'd rather have my sinnoh pokemon journey in a t-shirt and shorts than wear a scarf. (as a matter of fact I hardly wear a coat, jacket, or long sleeved anything in the winter to begin with)
As for wearing a backwards hat, thats the only way I wear a hat. I can't stand wearing it forward, I feel like a dork. |

And yes they do, except for Silver. They made him use Jenny Creg or something. Mr.Chubbz is now Mr.Twig and his eye color magically changed...CONTACTZ D: |
I like Gold's new clothes.....that's something that i'd wear :P I just don't like the way Red's hat looks in FR/LG why can't his hair stick out the front? It would look cooler......

I would have to disagree as well. I think Gold is one of the cooler looking characters, as well as Red. I think Brendan, May, and Crystal look pretty good too. Dawn even looks alright.
But..Lucas. He looks like the worst representation of a Pokemon trainer I've seen. I know, who am I to say what a Pokemon trainer looks like. It's just the way NPC's in the games describe trainers, I just imagine someone (if they were male) in jeans and a t-shirt with a backpack. Lucas looks like he's going to a fancy dinner dance, not on a Pokemon journey. May and Crystal have the best female outfits. Of course Dawn's is nice, but I don't know about that skirt in the cold Sinnoh region haha. But hey, whatever, it's Pokemon. I definitely think Pokemon would benefit from having a few alternate outfits for each character, or something of the like. |
Since Gold/Silver was released in the late 90's early 2000's, I believe they might be trying to make the characters resemble that. I don't know this for sure, of course, but, it could be a reason.
|
WHAT! Gold looks awesome and allways has done!
Lucas looks...how do I put it?...CAMP! |

And from what I've seen, In Japan, there is no cultural connections between Overalls and the Countryside. Characters like Tsukasa from Lucky Star have worn similar Overalls on many occasions. |
I absolutely love Gold's clothes. Probably something I would wear, other than the baseball cap. But it looks fine on him.
|
I still think Lucas has the worst outfit of any character in any pokemon game. I mean...just look at the beret. This is why I always play as Dawn in DPPt... >_>
Gold's original design was admittedly kinda silly (who wears a red hoodie with bright yellow shorts?), but his redesign comes a bit closer to feasibility. At least they made his pants black and gave them the semblance of long pants that have been rolled up...I still don't see why seeing his calves are absolutely necessary... >_< ...and don't dis a backwards baseball cap, it makes you look awesome. ^_^ |
Well unlike you, we're not slaves to the world of fashion. Gold looks retro and cool. Besides its a remake hes going to look the same.
|
i think the big hat would work if it was a bit smaller, soul had her hair worn down and the hat didn't have a stupid bow on the back of it. Couple that with jeans and a normal t-shirt and you have yourself a better looking soul.
Now as for Gold, no, im not even gonna bother. he makes lucas look like gok wan (a fashion guru for those who dont know), but he's meant to be ten, so who cares. |

That is kind of strange. The standard for Pokemon Trainers is 10 y/o, but recently they have seemed older, perhaps 14-17 y/o. Why such a late start? |
I just saw the new JC Penney commercial, and a couple of guys were wearing ...guess what?.... BACKWARDS BASEBALL CAPS. Just like Gold.
|
I have to say that the male character's clothes definitely look better than the female's. Sure, I agree with you when you say that he's wearing a backwards hat, but the girl's outfit is what's really terrible in these versions. Seriously, what kind of girl her age wears overall shorts anymore? I mean, I like her hat...but I think SHE'S the fashion disaster.
|
Oooh pooor you
it must be so terrible to see Gold wear such dreadful clothes HOW DARE THEY I OUGHTA CALL THE FASHION POLICE its just so terrible!!11 >n< I think Gold has some mighty fine pixels to be honest ;o No love for Soul either i see I find those sexy overalls and that cream puff hat enchanting Now the only characters whose clothes i dislike are Kris's (just the colors though, ick) and Brendan, (whats with his hat D:) Though i don't really find Dawn's clothes appropriate for an adventure ._. I actually think Lucas is cute D: |
Red=cute
Gold=adorable, not a fan of yellow shorts, but I like how he wears shorts instead of pants. Kris=meh not too crazy about the blue hair or bicycle shorts. (Wished she had a natural hair color when I first played it.) May=Okay, Better than Kris. Brendan=first outfit was weird, but the second one was better. Leaf=Not too bad, but the trainer sprite isn't as good as the artwork. The hat is weird. I wish she had a baseball cap like Red did. Red=Cute but I like the original better. Dawn (DP)=Fashionable, but I really want to remove that red scarf. It doesn't go. Dawn(Platinum)=It's better. Happy the socks and the scarf match better. Lucas (DP)=Looks like he could be Pearl's (the rival's) boyfriend. Lucas (Platinum)=Much better than DP's outfit, but I would still remove that hat. Gold=Best male protagonist ever. I love his shorts and I love his shoes and shirt. Soul=Has smoother hair than Kris. The overalls make her look like a painter. The hat is cute. I could do w/out the shoes, but it's not that bad. Like the fact that she isn't wearing a Pokeball logo and the fact that her shirt is similar to Gold's old shirt. Appears to be the first female protagonist with brown eyes. From the black trim on the socks and up, Soul's outfit isn't that bad. http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g147/KartWheelyGirl/SoulHeart.png I like Gold's new look. He's cute. :) |
Okay Ms. I-Want-To-Show-Off-That-I-Have-More-Fashion-Sense-Than-Everyone-Here, let's explain some stuff.
Firstly, Dunsparce is right. Japanese have a different Fashion-sense. Secondly, Sugimori probably wasn't trying to cater to the whims of self-proclaimed teenage fashion divas when he was making this guy. His standard was probably a bit lower than your fashion-quota. ;] |

I don't give a rat's hat about fashion, so I don't mind either Gold or Soul's outfits-or any of the character's outfits for that matter. But I'll admit, Brendan has a pretty weird hat, and Dawn seems obsessed with skirts. |
