Pokémon's art style has changed a lot over the years, and I wanted to share my thoughts as a professional concept artist as to how you can read and understand Pokemon designs as well as appreciating how cute they are.

From Pokemon Red, all the way to Pokemon Legends Arceus, Game Freak has gained progressively more art capabilities and a larger team, that will have some large effects on how new Pokémon will be designed. But I'm hoping the video teaches you how Game Freak tackles creature design, and how you might be able to design your own Pokémon too.

I know some folks might not appreciate my love of both new and older Pokémon, but each have their charms. I hope we can all just appreciate cute creatures together :)
