Artist recreates Pokemon Sword and Shield's Pokemon as Game Boy sprites
Can't beat the classics!
The Pokemon series may have started life on the Game Boy, but it's certainly come a long way since then. Pokemon in today's games are showcased with some lovely looking polygonal models, but longtime fans of the franchise are curious what today's Pokemon might look like in a classic style.
Rather than just wonder, artist Pat Ackerman took it upon himself to take the Galar region Pokemon and give them a Game Boy makeover. You can see the fruits of his labor in the tweet below.
(Of course I posted the wrong version) NOW here are all of the Pokemon from generation 8 in pixel form... #pixelart #pixelartist #pokemon #nintendo #NintendoSwitch #pokemon25 #gameboy pic.twitter.com/2hI0MWXyM2
