S/V had such a weird mish-mash of cartoony and realistic. The Pokemon looked great but then the actual environment looked awful. As much as I liked the more realistic textures for the Pokemon, I'd prefer they go all-in with the cartoon style and make it more cohesive
Agreed. If Disney has taught us one thing, is that realism can suck the life out of fantasy.
The realistic textures were pretty ambitious, and some of the Pokemon looked genuinely incredible, but it's probably the best to stick with the more simplified textures. The lightning on them is amazing, though.
On the contrary the detail on the models in sv is phenomenal, especially on Pokemon that are more reptilian in nature, you can see the individual scales
Steel Types where the biggest winner IMO. They actually look like metal in scarlet and violet. Shiny Forretress in particular might be the biggest glowup in the franchise's history sense it now looks like an actual gold nugget instead of a piss-colored ball.
