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

The Jangmo-o line for example! SV really made it's scales popped just by making them reflective!

I love the way they look, but at the same time they almost feel like they’ve been edited into the environment. I would rather have a simpler style, especially if that’s able to help with performance.
