Protect in Generation I is probably my biggest Mandela Effect thingie in the games.
Right???
About animations, everyone clown on move animations in the mainline games, but I remember the Stadium-esque ones also have their fair share of wack animations.
Agility for example always looked bad, in fact Pokémon Battle Revolution might have my least favorite take of this move. I hate the blur this game gives on this move and others.
Seismic Toss, on the other hand, is perfection and I will not accept any other opinion.
I can't believe I've never done a post about move animations, should really get on that. Double Team in Gen II is a longstanding favourite.
Quite fond of a lot of PBR's animations. I particularly like how the HP bar has a different animation depending on what move a Pokemon was hit with - if you lose HP to a Fire-type move, the depleting HP has a little flame effect, and if it's a Grass-type move, it looks like leaves.
