    I get why this game to a lot of people felt like a step backward after the Colosseum games, even compared to Stadium. But to me it's still the best the series has ever looked in 3D. The music & atmosphere are unparalleled and it blows how Genius Sonority has been trapped in mobile game hell since.

    The problem is Game Freak. Stadium was Nintendo EAD and Colosseum was Genius Sonority. Game Freak has never done a good 3D pokemon game. At best theyve done some average ones (the Legends games). At worst theyve done absolute trash. (anything on the 3DS or Switch that isnt Legends).

    Hand the care of a 3D main series Pokemon game to Genius Sonority, and actually let them cook, and it'll probably be pretty ok. But as long as Game Freak keeps being lazy as shit.... main series Pokemon is dead(tm). Legends has promise, and ZA doesnt seem awful but mainline is poop now.

    While the Genius Sonority games get a lot of credit for how much personality they give pokemon through their animations, it's worth noting two things: -the point is more true the more recent the stadium game is -A more reserved style can still be valid as long as more dynamic posing is used

    Best seen with Smeargle, where the shiny and default are swapped for both gen 2 and Colosseum/XD, but not for mainline gen 3 and onward. It's probably just that Genius Sonority worked on the game while gen 3 was still in development and never got updated designs between 2 & 3.

    There are some people theorizing that the reason Colosseum hasn’t been announced for NSO is because they have decided to go with a remake instead, and I truly hope that’s the case! Though it would be unlikely that Genius Sonority would be involved, which sucks. I would prefer a proper sequel game!

    Apparently Pokopia "proves" Gamefreak should let others use the IP. I guess I can see why Spike Chunsoft&Genius Sonority haven't been asked to make another Pokémon game. Their games tend to require a lot of reading comprehension, and this discourse really does prove the prominence if illiteracy.
