Just like I did with the trainer, I did a sprite comparison for some old gen pokemon shown. You don't know the jump in colors from R/S/E to D/P until you see them side by side...

Better than thou
Holy macarony plant on a stick! Once these games are out and a runnin'I gonna enjoy spriting in that style,
The style appears to allow sizes greater than 64x64 (Scizzor looks 74x64 that's nice) and extra colours, which makes it easier to make better looking sprites.
I do wonder how many sprite artists they put onthe pokémon games, considering every pokémon needs a pokédex sprite, icon, back sprite; gender and female sprites (Although one is a recolour and the other a minor modification, I do believe they can be done within minutes.)

New Scizor is awesome
New Butterfree is cooler than the old ones
but I preffer R/S Wooper than the new one

I think new Sciscor's head is too long. It just looks weird to me. Other then that they're awesome! I"m gonna love this game!

I love the Scizor sprite, it looks so cool. The Wooper sprite doesnt look different at all(except the mouth), but we cant expect every D/P sprite to be as awesome as the Scizor one.
After the dissolving of Team Magma, Hank, one of the famous TM Admins, was faced with ruin. He had joined the Team at a very young age and never really made plans for his life after Team Magma. Hank had to start from scratch and went back to his birth place, to Sinnoh. As he and his beloved Slugma were meandering through the lands of Sinnoh, he met an old Couple, who specialized in Pokemon breeding. Hank was amazed by the whole idea of getting the best out of a Pokemon and maxing out its strenghts. Hank all of a sudden had a vision. He decided to become one of the best Pokemon Breeders and amaze People with his special & strong Pokemon.
Meh, not exactly that much of a leap at all. The DS can do better than that.

In terms of 2d? How much more better is possible? Look at 2d art in other 2d DS games,sprites really aren't that much better
You're right - but that doesn't mean the sprites couldn't be better. Not a single game has pushed the hardware to it's limits yet.
But whatever, I'm satisfied with what we've seen so far.
Espeon will own all!
They look pretty simelar, I'm glad that there are male and female sprites
~Simple and Clean~
The male and female thing makes me happy. It's just like lions and moose. Moose are cool.

Lost in history...
Me too, as it gives them more individual aspects (if that's the word), imo.Originally Posted by poke_fan_12
I see pokemon have come along way since their Green, Red and Blue ancestors, lol.
What goes around comes around...

Hey, I got an idea - wait until clearer, non-scan images are revealed then improve your comparison - and add male and female for dp section.

Scizor's sprite rox my sox!
Butterfree's is alright.
Wooper's kinda creepin' me out, though.
Meet my first shiny!
You're not going crazy. You're going sane in a crazy world!

The Wooper sprite for D/P seems like it doesn't have as good shading, though it may be because it's zoomed in, unlike the Scizor and Butterfree sprites.

They arent bigger I dont think, its just the scan size.
I agree, the sprite for wooper isnt done very well, it looks as if the outline is all black and there are only two shades and no lighter blue shade to round out his head. Do you think they might be changing style? it looks like an easier (although kinda clean and cute) style.
Feel free to add to your sig if you are importing from Japan!

I think the sprites are better than r/s. I can't place whats different, but they just look so much better.
And, as if by magic, the webmaster appeared...
The wooper one is a bad example as it didnt physically come from a battle screenshot and was already severely enhanced when placed into the magazine

The name says it all
the scizor and buterfree sprites look awsome
My claims: Ralf from Ed, Edd n' Eddy, Star Wars Battlefront II for the PC, Cheeseburger in Paradise (Jimmy Buffet), Star Wars theme from SW Battlefront II, Meta-master (myself), and Roy from Super Smash Bros. Fear Me!
Thanks SKECHi for this awsome banner.

Scizor is solid but the Butterfree one looks outstanding to me. Certainly the best I have seen.

I think they're a lot better, even from R/S/E/Fr/Lg. The D/P sprites seem to have better blended colors, and more unique shapes. They also don't seem so 2-D to me.
