Year of Pokemon

In all of our talk about Pokemon designs, we haven't touched the legendaries yet. That changes now as we look at the best and worst designed legendary Pokemon in the entire franchise.

The designs for Pokemon Sword and Shield are pretty good, but there are some that are still off. Which are the best, and which are the worst?

While streamlining systems and providing many quality of life updates, Sword and Shield's technical, graphical and narrative issues weigh it down as one of the worst entries in the series.

The Pokemon found in Pokemon Sun and Moon are pretty neat, and have some solid designs to them. Which are the best, and which are the worst?

Pokemon Sun and Moon brought a fresh new look and gameplay elements to the tired franchise, but should have pushed farther. Still, Alola remains the most beautiful region in series history.

Pokemon designs are always the highlight of any Pokemon game, so what did Generation VI give us? Let's look at some of the best, and worst, Pokemon designs from Generation VI.

After nearly 15 years, the beloved monster-catching series finally stepped into the third dimension; the boring region and over-serious narrative dampened a great crop of new Pokemon and features.

We take a look at the worst designed Pokemon from the fifth generation, Pokemon Black and Pokemon White.

Pokemon Black and White brought the franchise quality of life upgrades, ambitious narrative ideas and some of the worst designs in the series.

2021 marks the 25th anniversary of everyone's favorite monster-catching franchise: Pokemon. Celebrate the big milestone with TechRaptor as we take a trip down memory lane through each generation.
