Default Crappiest RBY Pokemon sprites?

I think Squirtle, Vulpix and Geodude in R/B are pretty badly drawn.

I always thought Scyther circa Green looked pretty god awful.

There are a lot of bad ones, though:



As for the US Red/Blue games:



By Yellow, all of them were looking pretty good, save a couple:

Haunter looked pretty creepy in Red/Blue.

A Pidgeotto in Red/Blue looked very chubby IIRC.

Also almost all the back sprites of Pokemon (the ones where their back was facing the trainer) looked pretty ugly too.

Lmao. R/B Golbat and Green Gengar look hideous. As for Green Mew, that's one fucked up kitty.

All the green ones were horrible, except green version gengar. It's my all-time favorite pokey sprite (lol).

But I had the US blue version.

Fearow... wtf?

Squirtle... lolz


That green version Mew is the freakest thing I've seen.

This just looks stupid.

I think the worst one is this, though.

Well, looking back at my R/B player's guide...

Omastar looks like he's trying to disco, Gastly looks like a spilled packet of fun dip, and Kabuto makes me wonder if anyone knew what his underside looked like just from playing the game (you only see the top of him).

I think above all, I'd have to go with the Mew from Green, though.

Green Ninetales looks like a freaking wolf and Green Alakazam looks Constipated, crosseyed and stupid and has a White Jewish star on it's forehead.

What I noticed with the Pokémon Green sprites, is that almost all of the eyes look completely retarded.

Green really does have the worst, with Gengar probably having the ugliest sprite in Pokemon, nay, video gaming history.

Some other green gems:
wtf kind of snake has a mouth like that
Don King Oddish?
