Pokemon red blue and green:
In the world of Pokémon, the art, inspiration, and design behind the iconic creatures have shaped the franchise's immense success. Exploring the origins of Pokémon Red, Green, and Blue reveals the passionate efforts of a small Game Freak team. Their vision was to create an RPG where players would explore, collect, and trade creatures known as Pokémon. The early designs went through a meticulous process, guided by Ken Sugimori's design philosophy: 'make a Pokémon cool and then make it less cool.' This approach aimed to strike a balance between approachability and distinctiveness. Pikachu's rise to prominence was intentional; it was designed as a rare encounter to enhance its desirability. Leveraging the anime's popularity, Pikachu became the face of the franchise. The artbook, manga, and trading cards further expanded the Pokémon world. While many designs were successful, some, like Kotora, were discarded due to high standards. I embarked on a personal redesign of Kotora, inspired by the creators' philosophy, aiming to strike that balance between cool and approachable. This exploration highlights the intricate world of Pokémon design, where every detail contributes to the franchise's enduring appeal.
Music: Pokemon OST and remixes such as Trainer Red Epic Remix
