The bear looks like he's from Hello Kitty Playing Pokemon Go makes me really miss the masterful designs of the first 151.

 

What do you mean miss? They haven't gone anywhere. It's Pokemon Go that's missing the vast majority of Pokemon. Also let's not confuse masterful with nostalgia.

For the last time...I was born in 1996. I didn't play Gen 1 until Fire Red and Leaf Green, and that was after I played Diamond and Pearl. It's not nostalgia, the designs were simple and effective and didn't look like cheap Americanized saturday morning cartoon characters like that bear. And Ice cream, keys, swords, trash, and God knows what else. Why is the only thing that upsets pokemon fans who see someone praising Gen 1, the pokemon designs?

That's a joke right?

I mean I love gen.1 but it has some of the worst designs in the whole series heck I bet if that gen. wasn't the 1st one but was the any other gen,especially the more recent gens,people would hate the majority of the Pokémon.

Well, that's your opinion and I have mine. The newer pokemon, imo, are cheaply made and were made without heart. Gen 1-2 and even 3, were very organic and to me, from the heart of the original character designers. I know an American friend in college who is now working on monster designs in Japan. Their designs aren't my cup of tea. They just look very cheap and not very genuine compared to the first 3 gens.
