@woop @matrix I mean even Gamefreak openly adopted that design philosophy for Gen 8.

@ArdanianRight @matrix @woop@pl.skyn3t.in the girls in gen 8 generally look worse than in previous gens
and the mons are less fuckable than ever. Corvknight, Sandaconda, and Toxtricity are like the only ones even remotely good.

@ArdanianRight @matrix @woop@pl.skyn3t.in Designing a character just to be fuckable is an awful way to design a character. All you end up with is a hole. Who cares how fuckable a character is if they have nothing else going for them? In anything, it detracts from their fuckability. Lusamine - objectively the best character in pokemon and the #1 best waifu in the series - is a perfect example. Physically she isn't the hottest, even in her own game. Very youthful for her age, but a bit plain. And yet she still stands out as the most attractive, because of her personality, her character, her actions, and her beliefs. These are the things that make a character stand out as attractive. Making waifubait trash that exists only to be fucked is boring, generic, and so overdone. There are countless crappy harem anime, doujins, eroges, vns, etc, each filled with dozens of characters just like that. They're just cheap garbage attempting to pander to the lowest common denominator - no different than anything else in S&S.
