Was anyone else freaked out by Koffing's sprite? I remember in one of the first gen game (I think it was Yellow) where the toxic symbol on Koffing's head was above its eyes when it should be underneath.

Haha that Koffing sprite was in R/B. It looked freaky! Koffing actually looked good in Green but everyone else... need I say more?

Haters Gonna Hate
Green's Hitmonchan is actually a togekiss feasting on a doduo
the gen 1 Pikachu was designed with a tail similar to raichu's and a white belly (thus tying the 2 more)
FEAR the green's Duck Snake Ekans
Wigglytuff's tripping balls in green too.

I think the green sprites are the biggest nightmare-makers of the first generation. Although I will always and forever hate Charmeleon's back sprite in R/B.

I love how much better the sprites got in Pokemon Yellow. I'm guessing it was because of the anime being aired.

Pikachu was fat in the Old days, now it's thin.
And i remember Pikachu way differently, BW Pikachu doesn't look like Pikachu in Anime or previous games.

And Koffing, how did the skull change it's postion?

I second the horror of Charizard's back sprite. It looks like a half-rotting zombie dragon D:

Mewtwo looked like a beast in R/B/Y but it's getting worse in the newest versions. For me the worst sprites in R/B/Y were moltres, parasect and geodude

Perky Goth
Mew's sprite in Green. It looks like a malformed fetus.
