    Electabuzz is an example of a pokémon whose sprite hasn't changed very much at all over the years :]

    My favourite is the D/P one. Monkeybusiness!

    • I'll give it a try!

    Let's do magmar!
    R/G:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Just boring really, and his right hand looks like a mace or something.
    R/B:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    I'll throw you outta here!
    Y:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Do the magmar everyone!
    G:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    It's ok but why is he spitting upwards?
    S:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Pretty good, and he's aiming at the enemy this time! :D
    C:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    :classic:
    R/S:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    A bit brighter than usual. And he's aiming upwards again.
    E:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    I told you magmar, you'll never hit the other pokemon aiming that high!
    FR/LG:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    I like this one, a lot more shading on him.
    D/P:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    :(
    Pt:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    :(:(:(
    HG/SS:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Pretty good actually, a nice recovery from the awful dppt ones.

    My favorite magmar sprites would have to be crystal, frlg and hgss.

    • Let us examine Skarmory:

    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Gold, surprising not bad, doesnt have the red on its wings, but it looks decent.

    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Silver, if i may ask, what in gods name were they thinking?

    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Crystal, not bad, had the red wings and a decent sprite, but inferior to Gold Version.
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Emerald, goes from gold sprite, to silver sprite, back to gold...
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Diamon Pearl....awfully similar to Ruby/Sapphire...different shading and colors
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Platinum, hope they didn't hurt themselves on that.

    didn't know how to get R/S or FR/LG sprites, the site doesn't have their front sprites.

    Nidoking
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY] The face looks like a fish and he has boobs R/G
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY] Best Sprite ever IMO R/B
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]Looks so stupid Y
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY] Another awful Sprite, it looks like he's hugging the air S
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY] Eh a alright locking one, much better than the Silver and Yellow G
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY] Looks pretty good C
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]I hate all the R/S Sprites, and they made him way too light R/S
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY] At least they dulled the color E
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY] It would look alright if the head wasn't the size of a peanut, and it didn't look like it had Clefable wings FR/LG
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]Looks God awful and they made the color too bright again, almost as bad as it's R/G sprite D/P/Pt
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]Finally a good sprite after all that time HG/SS

    I would have to say my favorite sprite for Nidoking is it's RB sprite.

    Green, looks like someone brushed its vines downwards.
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    R/B, Tangela is quadratic :shocked:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Yellow, Too dark
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Gold, were's its colour? This stupid green is awful
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Silver, is it tripping or what?!
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Crystal, Same Sprite as in Gold, but the colour is back!
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    R/S, Too much light. Looks like it is in front of a spotlight
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    LG/FR, Too much Light
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Emerald, Poor animation, same thing with the light
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    D/P, Wow the first good sprite. My favourite.
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Platinum, That one is good, too, but I like the other position better
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    HG/SS, that one disappears me. Its vines and feets shrinked! It looks like one of the first gen sprites.

    Pretty much all Yellow sprites sucks a.. i'm not going to say that, but they are really, really bad. I mean, they may LOOK cool, but the coloring is just sad. I mean, yes, it is Pokemon Yellow, but that doesen't mean EVERYTHING HAS to be yellow! Jeez Nintendo, what's up with the yellow people, the yellow pokemon, EVERYTHING YELLOW?

    Yellow must be the stupidest pokemon game ever. Especially since you start with Pikachu and you can only catch bugs, a flying type, and normal types that early. Seriously.. were you supposed to beat Brock the same way as Ash did in the anime? I don't think so. How did you do it?

    Anyway, Yellow sprites may have looked good, but the coloring was lololololololololololololololollolololololololololfail.

    @Moltres: Get a Butterfree.

    A lot of Yellow sprites were coloured okay and didn't look yellow (at least not when I played them on my GBA SP) but there were some that looked terrible...

    • Okay, now Bellossom:
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    Pokémon Sprite Discussion [from RBYG to XY]
    The flowers are flying from the head. The leaf skirt is too large. And the colors don't match with any of Bellossom's artworks.

    Cuter, but that's what i call a BIG HEAD!!

    Now the colors match, but why are those leaves red??!! Fall, maybe?

    This is a cute sprite. The shading is a little overloaded but it's a good sprite.

    This is a Bellossom. Less shading, and also cleaner. The best so far.

    This one is pretty too, and the animation is more dynamic. HGSS has the best sprites.
