Conkeldurr being considered a "Smug Old Man" is honestly really heartwarming and funny (and honestly I can see it as truth). Especially since it made someone happy.
Conkeldurr really feels like someone you will tell to their face that they’re ugly as hell, but still appreciate having them around for their personality and skills.
In contrast to Bramblin tumbling around, it would be cool it this Brambleghast stood still like a withered tree in the desert, lunging forward once a trainer comes closer to investigate.
@@dinodude8899 I suppose, but Cacturne is an older mon. It's not as likely to get the scare factor as something brand new, especially if you went into the game blind
Yeah my thoughts exactly. To that end, I think the pose would be cooler if it stood with its hands on the floor, fingers rooted into the ground so that it cannot roll away.
One gripe I had with the redesign (even though I still really liked it) was that its whole gimmick is that it's carried by the wind but now that you say that that makes more sense
@@meeb_consumer Yeah I like to interpret this design as kind of a second form where its trying to create the impression of being humanoid. Its ‘travel form’ is looking like a tumbleweed just like Bramblin. This would explain the weird proportions on this design, it looks like it could barely move let alone have base 90 speed.
It looks great! It makes me want to see how he'd redesign Galarian Mr. Mime and Mr. Rime given how his redesign of Kantonian Mr. Mime looks in this video.
I just want to say that the inclusion of the card art was such a good idea for this video. It allows us to see alternate official art that maybe takes the same designs in different directions than the key art we're used to, while still being the same design. Sometimes the design isn't the problem, it's just, not great key art, for whatever reason.
Yeah in the key art they're in the most basic poses. One way to fix that is to have them in more dynamic poses so they look cooler. Some of them look terrible just standing there while one like Typhlosion showing it roaring makes it look cooler since it's not just standing there
I can totally picture Brambleghast plunging its fingers into the ground and using then growing them as an onslaught of spreading roots that emerge and plunge again in waves.
Hello, I am the man you didnt know existed, Swinub is my favorite pokemon and I deeply love Mamoswine because I was actually disappointed in Piloswine, so getting a cool new final evolution that kept my favorite little boy's lump of a body was amazing. That being said I am IN LOVE with your redesign of him! You kept all my favorite parts and just made him even more interesting! Thanks!
6:14 since bramblins whole thing is that its a wandering spirit, for the redesigned brambleghast it could be about trapping other wandering spirits with its big hands and absorbing them into itself
@@ing4gi I like how regional variants are half, “Let’s see what happens when we put x Pokémon in x environment!” And half “Yeah, we need a reason for a redesign”
I WAS WONDERING WHERE I SAW THE MAMOSWINE + MR MIME REDESIGNS BEFORE!! i saw these on twitter already and LOVED THEM so much, oh my god. words cannot express enough how much i DEARLY WISH that mr mime design was canon. it's so genuinely perfect
13:02 Mamoswine is my Favourite pokemon. I was worried when it popped up here, but I can't believe just how much a small change, like the back colours, can impact the design! Great job everyone in this video.
I saw Manectric in the thumbnail and (pre-predictions for whoever redesigns Manectric might say) I kinda understand… I like Manectric to a good extent and really like its Mega, but I never understood why it normally has its mane sticking up to a specific point. If you’re looking at Manectric from the front, you get a sense of its 105 speed, but then from the side, you’d probably need the sleekness of its Mega to convey that more like how Electrike did with its design. Edit: Okay, Jack and I are on similar wavelengths
I've always liked the idea of embracing the train design for Coalossal and making it a Onix style rock worm combined with a train... like Orthworm... it should have just been Orthworm.
When you were talkin' about what else could be done with Bramblin's evolution the first thing that popped into my mind was the idea of tumbleweeds getting stuck to one another and creating a big pile or bush of tumbleweeds which is somewhat commonly seen in areas where tumbleweeds tend to roll around i believe. Now obviously just a big pile of Bramblin's alone does not make for an evolution but i think one could tinker with that concept and make something interesting with it. For it's evolution method you could even integrate the picnic mechanic which Gen 9 tried to push by making it so that you need 4-6 bramblins in your party and then you have to hold a picnic with them. Play some ball get them to move around a bit. Then when the picnic is over they all evolve and merge into one pokemon. The idea being that as you played with them during the picnic, they got stuck to one another but through their mutual trust and friendship with you their trainer they converge into one being through a unified sense of purpose and direction and now they follow you as opposed to them going in all directions or wherever the wind takes them as the aimless wanderers they previously were. Or something like that anyways.
This is such a fun collab! I know that redesigning pokemon is always sparks controversy, but honestly I love videos like these. It's so cool seeing how the redesigns will push forward the elements that the artist already enjoyed about the design and put the pokemon in a whole new light! My favorite for this video HAS to be that Mamoswine though. I've always sat on the fence with Mamoswine because it feels so powerful and like it could do so much, but always so awkward and weirdly featureless. Its a simple redesign but its PERFECT and is everything I love about the original and yet better!!!
the alternative to Brambleghast was cool. However what I was thinking of was a Bramblin that settled down and sprouted like the real life counterpart would.
I love how these redesigns keep the originals in mind and don't totally throw out their ideas or simplify them. It feels very.... nice? Respectful? I dunno, but I like it. They aren't being turned into totally different creatures like what some redesigns do.
Beartic always reminds me of that old cartoon series called "The Secret World of Santa Claus". It has an "anti-Santa" as the main villain, who has a somewhat pointy bald head, a pear shaped body, constantly grumpy expression, and a blue-ish spiky beard. It's literally him as a Pokémon, association with the arctic and all...
I've always liked Electrike and Manectric, but I absolutely love what you did with the silhouette! I agree entirely that Manectric's head especially just feels awkward for a Pokemon that's supposed to be fast and what you did to it is perfect I love him mwah
Brambleghast rework looks sick and has great shape language, you can almost see that it can cantort it's arms to make itself a ball again to move around quickly, while still keeping 'spooky little guy' vibe
I kinda like how interesting the redesign is but i do not like the hair/ear-leaf-thing. The original ear-leaf-hair is so much more sassy than the redesigned one and i much prefer it over the redesign
Sneasler is a weasel, that is why it is so lanky. I can see buffing it up a bit using Wolverines as a reference since they are in the same family as a weasel. Thus making it a little bear like. But making it a monkey is a big nope for me. XD
While this has nothing to do with the designs, Mamoswine is one of my favorite ice types. I like it because it’s an ice type that isn’t just “oh I’m made of ice or snow” it’s just a big mammoth made to live in the snow. The redesign does look awesome though.
These are ALL Pokémon I don't use because I disliked their designs. You all made me like/love all of them. Well done! Special shout out for the Beartic, Manectric, and Mr. Mime designs! SO MUCH BETTER!
I think Mamoswine is totally fine. I think its funny how Jack says that Piloswine doesn't look like it needs an evo when from my point of view who only really got into pokémon post-gen 4, Piloswine does kinda look like a mid-evo. Like you have these pig-mammoths and then you unlock its hidden ancient genes and it becomes this big hulking mammoth. Like it feels incomplete without Mamoswine. It's probably because Jack associates Mamoswine as an addition rather than part of the whole evo line
I technically had played Pokémon since I was a very young kid and therefore started with Pokemon Yellow, but as I only started understand what was going on when I was older with Pokemon Platinum and only made signicant progress in a game since Gen 6, I think that it was necessary for Piloswine to get an evolution. By the standards of towards, third stage evolutions are maximalist asf, and so Piloswine does look awkward even in Gen 2 and Gen 3.
The Mr. Mime redesign is a VAST improvement! It still looks like a mime/jester without looking too much like a human(I always thought Mr. Mime looked like a middle aged man). I love how you made Mr. Mime’s weird hair horns actually look like a jester’s hat, brought back Mime Jr.’s eyes, and exaggerated the portions
I think Beartic's triangle shape is supposed to evoke a snowy peak but also wasn't comunicated that well in its original design I dig what you did on the redesign tho, the stylized beard is awesome
I think Brambleghast and Mandibuzz could have a sort of symbiotic relationship. Brambleghast lets Mandibuzz nest on it's hands and perch on it's head, and in return, Mandibuzz will bring it food.
Loved this episode, glad you did another one of these! The redesigns were amazing to see, obviously. Coalossal and Mr. Mime were definitely my favorites-their concepts are so much stronger now, way more clear through obvious visual cues and great color palette placement. Also, I like Godzilla. Brambleghast and Manectric are definitely my runner ups. I will be honest, Snealser and Palafin are probably my least favorite-the former’s top heavy body is very orb-like, so much so it actually makes it harder for me to imagine it climbing. Like, I’d imagine it’s so big that it’s bottom half scrapes against the mountain, which throws me off. Palafin is definitely more visually clear, but the removal bubble gloves, despite their rubbery texture, means it loses the “superhero” aspect it has, and now just looks like a buff dolphin (or a Wavemania character). Still, extremely well done redesigns all around! Props to all 4 of you for getting this together!
100% agreed on Sneasler, when he said "it does not have what I would consider a climbers body" I was just thinking, tell me you've never seen a free-climbers body without telling me you've never seen a free-climbers body. Despite being strong as hell those people are usually pretty skinny because you don't want to be carrying all the weight that comes with large muscles. Sneasler's bulky forearms are more than equipped enough to carry itself along with a small child. Also the "monkey" inspired redesign doesn't make sense for a weasel pokemon, especially when the monkeys in the real world that do a lot of climbing are, just like humans who climb a lot, skinny.
LOVE Mr Mime's redesign here - cute and creepy, without the overly humanoid proportions. And Coalassal too for actually going full Kaiju, as overly stated. Brambleghast, Beartic, and Manectric are cool as well.
these are all so wonderful and super well executed, i really love the direction yall took with sneasler's body type because it's so true, we never get "feminine" pokemon that aren't just slim and graceful. this version actually looks like it has some power behind it and accomplishing that by taking inspiration from monkeys is honestly genius. also that mr mime is an absolute home run im SO obsessed oh my god. it's the looong arms that really sells it for me like they could have been more proportional to the rest of the body but god yall really went the extra mile with that one. need this to be a divergent evolution Immediately
This video was incredible. It was so much fun to see these incredible and creative designs, but it was also so much fun to hear the way you all interact. Everyone was so excited about each others designs and were so supportive of each other’s creativity. Please, more of these!
This evolution of Brablin is SO COOL! I imagine it can form back into a ball but just by curlilng its fingers inward, and I imagine it just doing cartwheels across the sand.
I definitely understand this took a lot more effort and time than many of your other videos, with the collab and all, but man oh man I would love to see more of these!
The palafin redesign is PEAK, it looks so much better, and I no idea the"gloves" were supposed to be bubbles and I always found the original design to be awkward, but this one was to much smoother and dolphin like while getting the point across perfectly! Fantastic work from all of you!
for brambleghast, I could also see a scarcrow kind of direction, going with that humanoid progression kind of thing, but also having its own unique inspiration. Not to mention scarecrows are kinda scary and mimic people, hense ghost type. and weed to something made out of straw also seems natural.
It’s been five years since the first one of these??? Omg it’s been so long. I’ve been watching since the beginning, time flies. Yet another great subjectively video. Keep up the great work!
Conkeldurr is great, love the ugly bodybuilder, super cool. Imo, the worst design is the Vanillish line. They just don't make sense to me as pure ice-types
i feel like they could have benefited from gen 6 slapping fairy onto random pokemon tbh but if you dont want to take alonan ninetails’ unique typing it could gain a unique type of its own and become normal ice because its literally just an icicle
@@LabRatz-Ivor I know what they are. But they also came in the generation with Pidove, the pokemon that Darwinian evolved to have heart shaped crests to get more food from people. In a world with Darwinian evolution a creature making itself look like ice cream makes no sense to me lol. But fairies have precedent for being food themed. Making vanilish a fairy type would solve all my issues with it
TUBZ AZ???? LETS GOOOOOOO!!!!! Absolutely love him and his art been following him for a few years now. So glad to see him getting attention like this!!!
With all due respect, but I prefer the original Palafin, I thought your design took away from the superhero swimming champion aspect. I know it can improve a lot but I don't think the Palafin's design is bad.
That Mr. mime redesign was so awesome. I don't like the original Al design that much but this redesign was so cool, the card joker style, Harley quinn costume style
honestly this video just kind of makes me sad solely because i am upset that some of these are not the original designs 😭 i absolutely adore the sneasler and mr. mime redesigns. absolutely did hisuian sneasel justice (i LOVE that thing) and mr. mime is just. perfect . everything i could have wanted fr
When you mentioned Manetric, I thought you were going to fixed that it's never looked like an evolution of ElecTRIKE. Child-me always thought it was going to evolve into a grass-electric triceratops. I was so disappointed when it was a random dog-lion. Your geometric design would have probably been more of a consolation, though - good job everyone in this video!
I love to imagine the brambleghast curling up into a tumbleweed when moving around and in the overworld so you initially mistake it for just a bramblin untill you battle it
31:46 i love all of these designs so much but getting rid of sneakers mean girl aura is such a crime, i love sneasler because she looks like shes just back from her manicure and ready to insult someone even if shes awkward, but getting rid of that for a monkey aura in an already hybridy (both a weasel and a cat already) pokemon feels very strange, also the constant he him made me do a double take.. a big part of sneasler is her feminity andi love the idea of making her buff but getting rid of that feels like a very different pokemon entirely, more like a split evo,,,, love these designs though, sorry for the rant 😭
i didnt get what twink death was on an actually deep level until i saw the sneasler redesign, i cant believe what they did to my boy. my heart has been shattered into a million pieces. the only reason im not losing it completely rn is because i have yet to see all the meowscarada redesigns out on the internet.
Super sad to see Manectric in the thumbnail. I’d much rather keep the original over the redesign, I feel like the redo took away what makes Manectric so interesting to me and just turns it into “generic lightning dog” rather than improving it. Coalossal being Godzilla just made me groan, I’m very sick of Godzilla mons thanks to Baxcalibur being so plain (as much as I like it as a mon) and Iron Thorns existing when we just got Mecha Godzilla last gen in Duraludon. Begone Godzilla mons lmao Brambleghast and Beartic’s redesigns were good, I liked those, and Palafin’s was decent. The rest I could pass without, though.
What I don't like about Crabominable is that is takes the design ideas from Crabrawler and throws them in the trash. If it was a split evo with another Pokemon that was more boxer-like, I'd probably dig it more. I just love Crabrawler so much, guys.
Crabominable actually has a really solid idea behind it imo, since its deal is that it's a yeti crab- which are real things! Yeti crabs are weird little guys who live near thermal vents in the deep ocean and have hairy arms full of bacteria that eat the mineral soup pumped out by the vents, and then the crabs eat the bacteria. They're funky little crab guys who just hang out near vents all day waving their arms around. Translating a yeti crab into a literal Yeti+Crab combo does kinda take away the weirdness of the real thing (maybe there could be a regional variant that's fire/poison or something), but it's still a fun enough idea, it's just that Crabominable completely fumbles the execution with a weird lumpy body and an open-mouthed expression that's too silly to be cool but too weird to be appealing in a "dopey lil' guy" kinda way. Plus the weird yellow sprig of hair just makes it look like it's wearing a wig. To fix it, I think I'd start with making the arms look like they could actually punch something instead of just waving around awkwardly, and making the face a bit more like crabrawler's. It can keep the silly mouth, but having the default state be "closed" would honestly do so much for it.
As a Hoenn first genner, I will be stealing a time machine to make this Manectric cannon. Electrike has so much promise and then just...pointy helmet dog.
It always kinda looked like Manectric had armor to me, so I would have played up that bit and maybe given it some yellow fur on the shoulders, and just angled the 'helmet' slightly back, but still mostly pointing up.
Are they actually going to take into account why the pokemon were designed the way they were or are they gonna turn a cool looking Japanese delinquent gang leader into an ugly sumo wrestler again?
@@mellow_mallow I'm pretty sure they deleted that video due to all of the negative feedback. I think it was something like "fixing bad gen 6 pokémon designs" or whatever.
@@mellow_mallow Yeah, a lot of their old "fixing" pokémon videos was just them being racist and ignorant of Japanese culture, completely misunderstanding why the pokémon were created they way they were.
Sneasler is perfect and the redesign is a huge downgrade for me. She's an edgy teenager first and a climber second. He killed the teenager on Sneasler in favor of the climbing, and that's unforgivable in my books 🙅🏻♀️

can you fix my parents marriage in the pokémon artstyle
Bruh that is hilarious
not even Leonardo Da Vinci could fix that
Not even Bob the Builder can fix that, sorry lad
Not even a Reparo spell could fix that
this is wild
Brambleghast being ‘unfolded’ and being able to fold back up is the coolest thing about that design, it sounds like it was not intentional though.

It looks great! It makes me want to see how he'd redesign Galarian Mr. Mime and Mr. Rime given how his redesign of Kantonian Mr. Mime looks in this video.
I agree. The hat gives me Nights' vibe from Sega, while also having the rubber hose animation vibes from early cartoons.
I was also thinking of giving him noodle arms, those elbows & knees just look wrong.
It's my favourite from this video as well
His redesign makes me so sad it's not official. I want it on my team!
The design notes for coalossal being just "RAHHH GODZILLA" is hilarious
huge fan of videos like this, maybe for a special version of this you could fix each others least favorit pokemon? like a secret santa version of this
Oh that’s a fun idea!
Oh that idea is fantastic

@@darknesswave100some pokemon have been straight up saved for me because of movement, either card art or anime.
Both the Brambleghast and the Palafin card arts shown here make them look so cool even though the base design is mid at best.
TCG art can give you a whole different perspective on a Pokémon’s design!
I can totally picture Brambleghast plunging its fingers into the ground and using then growing them as an onslaught of spreading roots that emerge and plunge again in waves.

Reminds me a lot of groot from the guardians of the galaxy.
Maybe he also uses his vines and drags people down into the dirt.

I also love Swinub and it’s line 🥹🤍
6:14 since bramblins whole thing is that its a wandering spirit, for the redesigned brambleghast it could be about trapping other wandering spirits with its big hands and absorbing them into itself

Those big hands on the Brambleghast change reminds me of how vines and ivy are sometimes described as choking the plant they grow on.

29:10 this is what I always wanted from this doggo boy.
I liked manectric but the odd head shape was hard to get over
Accidental genius turning Coalossal into Godzilla inspired creature ! Coal is a member of fossil fuel !
Also, Coalossal already had the body plan of Pokémon associated with kaijus, being similar to Tyranitar and Aggron. It could have gone all the way

Same, and I still really like mamoswine's OG version, but I feel like the redesign was still an upgrade
The Mr. Mime redesign is a VAST improvement! It still looks like a mime/jester without looking too much like a human(I always thought Mr. Mime looked like a middle aged man). I love how you made Mr. Mime’s weird hair horns actually look like a jester’s hat, brought back Mime Jr.’s eyes, and exaggerated the portions
I think Beartic's triangle shape is supposed to evoke a snowy peak but also wasn't comunicated that well in its original design
I dig what you did on the redesign tho, the stylized beard is awesome
Ahhhhhhhhhh i thought it's shape looked like something snow related i just couldn't put my finger on it
I'm glad that Mr. Mime doesn't look like he's Ash's new stepfather!
That HD Black/White Pokedex template is clean as hell!! Huge fan
I think Brambleghast and Mandibuzz could have a sort of symbiotic relationship. Brambleghast lets Mandibuzz nest on it's hands and perch on it's head, and in return, Mandibuzz will bring it food.
16:21 wait this make so much sense. It’s perfectly that shape
You guys all killed it! I'm especially partial to that Mr. Mime and Beartic!
bruxish is suppose to be ugly tbf, and i love it for that. the patterns are just purposely ugly enough to make me really appreciate it!
I also love Bruxish!
I love how down to earth you all sound.
Its part of what I really like about these videos. Just a bunch of people doing what they enjoy.
Loved this episode, glad you did another one of these! The redesigns were amazing to see, obviously. Coalossal and Mr. Mime were definitely my favorites-their concepts are so much stronger now, way more clear through obvious visual cues and great color palette placement. Also, I like Godzilla. Brambleghast and Manectric are definitely my runner ups.
I will be honest, Snealser and Palafin are probably my least favorite-the former’s top heavy body is very orb-like, so much so it actually makes it harder for me to imagine it climbing. Like, I’d imagine it’s so big that it’s bottom half scrapes against the mountain, which throws me off. Palafin is definitely more visually clear, but the removal bubble gloves, despite their rubbery texture, means it loses the “superhero” aspect it has, and now just looks like a buff dolphin (or a Wavemania character).
Still, extremely well done redesigns all around! Props to all 4 of you for getting this together!
100% agreed on Sneasler, when he said "it does not have what I would consider a climbers body" I was just thinking, tell me you've never seen a free-climbers body without telling me you've never seen a free-climbers body. Despite being strong as hell those people are usually pretty skinny because you don't want to be carrying all the weight that comes with large muscles. Sneasler's bulky forearms are more than equipped enough to carry itself along with a small child.
Also the "monkey" inspired redesign doesn't make sense for a weasel pokemon, especially when the monkeys in the real world that do a lot of climbing are, just like humans who climb a lot, skinny.
LOVE Mr Mime's redesign here - cute and creepy, without the overly humanoid proportions.
And Coalassal too for actually going full Kaiju, as overly stated.
Brambleghast, Beartic, and Manectric are cool as well.
Coalossal as Godzilla is fantastic!!
these are all so wonderful and super well executed, i really love the direction yall took with sneasler's body type because it's so true, we never get "feminine" pokemon that aren't just slim and graceful. this version actually looks like it has some power behind it and accomplishing that by taking inspiration from monkeys is honestly genius.
also that mr mime is an absolute home run im SO obsessed oh my god. it's the looong arms that really sells it for me like they could have been more proportional to the rest of the body but god yall really went the extra mile with that one. need this to be a divergent evolution Immediately
It's funny that both the pokemon Jack did had weird triangle heads
that beartic redesign makes me so mad because it’s what we should’ve gotten! what an incredible redesign
I was waiting for this series to comeback!!!
This video was incredible. It was so much fun to see these incredible and creative designs, but it was also so much fun to hear the way you all interact. Everyone was so excited about each others designs and were so supportive of each other’s creativity. Please, more of these!
That Sneasler is so cool!! I love it!
This evolution of Brablin is SO COOL! I imagine it can form back into a ball but just by curlilng its fingers inward, and I imagine it just doing cartwheels across the sand.
Every time Subjectively posts, my day gets a little bit better. Every video is just the best
The fixing pokemon series is the one that got me into this channel and this is a great way to bring it back!
THE AUSSIE ARTIST COLLAB SO GOOD
I definitely understand this took a lot more effort and time than many of your other videos, with the collab and all, but man oh man I would love to see more of these!
This thumbnail art is perfect
The palafin redesign is PEAK, it looks so much better, and I no idea the"gloves" were supposed to be bubbles and I always found the original design to be awkward, but this one was to much smoother and dolphin like while getting the point across perfectly! Fantastic work from all of you!
“Subjectively” appealing huh? Seems like a sweet premise, someone should make a YT channel about it or something.
That Sneasler edit is SO GOOD. Instantly fixed what I found weird with it and makes so much sense for how much it climbs.
The Subjectively Renaissance! Let's go!
for brambleghast, I could also see a scarcrow kind of direction, going with that humanoid progression kind of thing, but also having its own unique inspiration. Not to mention scarecrows are kinda scary and mimic people, hense ghost type. and weed to something made out of straw also seems natural.
As a Mainer, I adore the Habaa region and am patiently waiting for anything regarding that region. I also love these redesigns!
I love that this whole thing is about opinions, it's such a cool and refreshing way to see a channel being run and especially an art-related one :D
Tubbs noo, your messing powers you couldn't understand, don't turn Sneasler into a circle-
It’s been five years since the first one of these??? Omg it’s been so long. I’ve been watching since the beginning, time flies. Yet another great subjectively video. Keep up the great work!
0:10 I guess I'm crazy then...
Jinx
This is such a solid crew of redesigns, super happy the Coalossal ended upgoing that route!
Conkeldurr is great, love the ugly bodybuilder, super cool.
Imo, the worst design is the Vanillish line. They just don't make sense to me as pure ice-types
the vanillish line are actually icicles with snow on top, and not actual ice cream if that help clear things up
Where do you live where ice-cream contains... idk dragon chunks?
i feel like they could have benefited from gen 6 slapping fairy onto random pokemon tbh but if you dont want to take alonan ninetails’ unique typing it could gain a unique type of its own and become normal ice because its literally just an icicle
@@LabRatz-Ivor I know what they are. But they also came in the generation with Pidove, the pokemon that Darwinian evolved to have heart shaped crests to get more food from people.
In a world with Darwinian evolution a creature making itself look like ice cream makes no sense to me lol.
But fairies have precedent for being food themed. Making vanilish a fairy type would solve all my issues with it
@@lexnaumit wasn’t Darwinian evolution it intentionally made itself look like that
TUBZ AZ???? LETS GOOOOOOO!!!!! Absolutely love him and his art been following him for a few years now. So glad to see him getting attention like this!!!
With all due respect, but I prefer the original Palafin, I thought your design took away from the superhero swimming champion aspect. I know it can improve a lot but I don't think the Palafin's design is bad.
That Mr. mime redesign was so awesome. I don't like the original Al design that much but this redesign was so cool, the card joker style, Harley quinn costume style
I love pokemon redesigns
honestly this video just kind of makes me sad solely because i am upset that some of these are not the original designs 😭 i absolutely adore the sneasler and mr. mime redesigns. absolutely did hisuian sneasel justice (i LOVE that thing) and mr. mime is just. perfect . everything i could have wanted fr
Mamoswine slander will not be tolerated
Mamoswine is one of my favourites but I think I subconsciously block out the position of its tusks in my brain for my sanity
my boiiiiiii, mamoswine my beloved
Right????
Mamoswine is one of my favorite ice type Pokémon but I will say that the redesign can work for a potential Mega Evolution.
I love the OG Mamoswinee, but I have to say, that redesign is stellar!
When you mentioned Manetric, I thought you were going to fixed that it's never looked like an evolution of ElecTRIKE. Child-me always thought it was going to evolve into a grass-electric triceratops. I was so disappointed when it was a random dog-lion. Your geometric design would have probably been more of a consolation, though - good job everyone in this video!
MORE COLAB VIDEOS PLEASE!! I love this series and watching the process of your redesigned pokemon!
The little neurodivergent dance i did when i saw conkeldurr in the intro lmaoo
I waved my hands in the air like i was fucking gwimbly 😭
I am a sucker for Manectric, gotta be an all time top ten, but your design brought a new light to it. Very well done!
I ADORE the Mr. Mime redesign
I love to imagine the brambleghast curling up into a tumbleweed when moving around and in the overworld so you initially mistake it for just a bramblin untill you battle it
31:46 i love all of these designs so much but getting rid of sneakers mean girl aura is such a crime, i love sneasler because she looks like shes just back from her manicure and ready to insult someone even if shes awkward, but getting rid of that for a monkey aura in an already hybridy (both a weasel and a cat already) pokemon feels very strange, also the constant he him made me do a double take.. a big part of sneasler is her feminity andi love the idea of making her buff but getting rid of that feels like a very different pokemon entirely, more like a split evo,,,, love these designs though, sorry for the rant 😭
reading this comment makes me think of that one theamandafiles clip that's a rant about Sneasler being a mean girl. We stan a bad bitch weasel.
literally, sneasler is so Big Sister vibes and now she's just a monkey 😢 the art is good but I don't mesh with the design
i didnt get what twink death was on an actually deep level until i saw the sneasler redesign, i cant believe what they did to my boy. my heart has been shattered into a million pieces. the only reason im not losing it completely rn is because i have yet to see all the meowscarada redesigns out on the internet.
See I'm imagining Humanoid Brambleghast still tumbling in the breeze, just ragdolling like a dead Fallout npc
I love brambleghast but the redesign is AWESOME.
These redesigns were all well done amazingly and they fixed the problems the original designs had
Super sad to see Manectric in the thumbnail. I’d much rather keep the original over the redesign, I feel like the redo took away what makes Manectric so interesting to me and just turns it into “generic lightning dog” rather than improving it.
Coalossal being Godzilla just made me groan, I’m very sick of Godzilla mons thanks to Baxcalibur being so plain (as much as I like it as a mon) and Iron Thorns existing when we just got Mecha Godzilla last gen in Duraludon. Begone Godzilla mons lmao
Brambleghast and Beartic’s redesigns were good, I liked those, and Palafin’s was decent. The rest I could pass without, though.
The day is just different when Subjectively uploads a video. Thanks!
I hate crabominable on such a deep visceral level. I dont just think its a flawed design, i believe it to be flawed from its very conception.
How would you fix it
What I don't like about Crabominable is that is takes the design ideas from Crabrawler and throws them in the trash. If it was a split evo with another Pokemon that was more boxer-like, I'd probably dig it more.
I just love Crabrawler so much, guys.
Crabominable actually has a really solid idea behind it imo, since its deal is that it's a yeti crab- which are real things! Yeti crabs are weird little guys who live near thermal vents in the deep ocean and have hairy arms full of bacteria that eat the mineral soup pumped out by the vents, and then the crabs eat the bacteria. They're funky little crab guys who just hang out near vents all day waving their arms around.
Translating a yeti crab into a literal Yeti+Crab combo does kinda take away the weirdness of the real thing (maybe there could be a regional variant that's fire/poison or something), but it's still a fun enough idea, it's just that Crabominable completely fumbles the execution with a weird lumpy body and an open-mouthed expression that's too silly to be cool but too weird to be appealing in a "dopey lil' guy" kinda way. Plus the weird yellow sprig of hair just makes it look like it's wearing a wig.
To fix it, I think I'd start with making the arms look like they could actually punch something instead of just waving around awkwardly, and making the face a bit more like crabrawler's. It can keep the silly mouth, but having the default state be "closed" would honestly do so much for it.
As a Hoenn first genner, I will be stealing a time machine to make this Manectric cannon. Electrike has so much promise and then just...pointy helmet dog.
I'll be honest. Original Sneasler is much better than remake.
It always kinda looked like Manectric had armor to me, so I would have played up that bit and maybe given it some yellow fur on the shoulders, and just angled the 'helmet' slightly back, but still mostly pointing up.
Are they actually going to take into account why the pokemon were designed the way they were or are they gonna turn a cool looking Japanese delinquent gang leader into an ugly sumo wrestler again?
you already know the answer 😬
@@polarknight5376 wait which previous redesign is this comment about i haven't watched all of these (and also i just have a bad memory lol)
@@mellow_mallow I'm pretty sure they deleted that video due to all of the negative feedback. I think it was something like "fixing bad gen 6 pokémon designs" or whatever.
@@polarknight5376 ohhh gotcha
@@mellow_mallow Yeah, a lot of their old "fixing" pokémon videos was just them being racist and ignorant of Japanese culture, completely misunderstanding why the pokémon were created they way they were.
That Palafin is so much better than what we got officially.
Sneasler is perfect and the redesign is a huge downgrade for me. She's an edgy teenager first and a climber second. He killed the teenager on Sneasler in favor of the climbing, and that's unforgivable in my books 🙅🏻♀️
