Fake Pokemon sprites : Electric dragon !

[ssbkid]

No Pokemon 'grew' colors between games. All of there official art depicted them with all of the colors we now see today, the gameboy's limitations just forced them to use a certain amount of colors.

Also, yes. They ALL are. Go to bulbapedia and look any Pokemon up. They are all based on something.

Yes, I'm aware that Pokemon had their colors to begin with, its on the box art after all, but what I meant by that is that due to the less amount of limitations the newer games allowed, that Pokemon "grew more colors" in game.

Ah well, regardless, my Pokemon is based on the form of lightning.

I guess I didn't make myself quite clear on the colouring aspect. What I meant was that they picked colours that could more-or-less be interpreted with a single colour palette. Notice how much of Blastoise's shell is black, or at least darker than his skin, and much of his inner body is white?

The problem with your dragon is that yellow and blue lie on opposite sides of the colour spectrum, making it seem an unrealistic design for a generation 1 styled pokemon, as it is impossible to convey such a massive colour difference without using more colours.

The number of colours is also not, on it's own, relevant. They were limited to certain palettes of colours too.

Your bringing up Blastoise strengthens my other point, though. Look at him again. Does that REALLY look like a simple design to you? Segmented arms, knee caps, reasonably complex shell rim. The first gen pokemon weren't simple, they just didn't consist of spikes, robot machinery and lots of bright colours.

Then they would just simply make his wings a darker/lighter shade of yellow or maybe even its body a lighter/darker shade of blue.
They did that with Venasaur's flower thing, Charizard's wings, Blastoise's shell and various other Pokemon. I don't think the colors really bothered them as much as the amount of colors did.
And you can't tell me with a straight face that most gen 1 designs weren't simple. Further gens designs were usually more complicated, and thats usually the reason many people only like gen 1 (That and nostalgia). What made them simple was their lack of different colors, which like you said, they needed a limited amount of colors.

But if everyone agrees that the wings need some work, what are some things people suggest happen to the wing? Should they really be colored the same way as its body?

Also....

YOU STOP DOING THAT.
I already stated how I wasn't going to remove the hair, stop being so stubborn...
