Please change Lugia EX back to the original art

Options

Hello. I appreciate all the effort that has been put into the art of Pocket TCG, and the last-minute changes that were done following the similarities between the Ho-Oh card and fanart. While I understand that Ho-Oh needed to be changed, there was no reason to change Lugia. A lot of players online agree that the new Lugia looks much worse. The anatomy is off, its neck is bent abruptly and its torso looks strange. The original Lugia art was perfect, and it was an original piece, so it did not need to be changed. The Ho-Oh could have just been changed in the Lugia immersive. I've read comments online about the new art and a lot of people are complaining about Lugia. For me personally, it feels really bad that a Pokemon I love had amazing art, and it was not kept. It has affected my experience with the game such that I don't even want to use the card or pull for more of them anymore.

    I completly agree that new lugia is under the standards, the proportions are weird, the pose don't give out a flying creature vibe, the old one was WAYY better, i do prefer the new Oh-oh thoo, its great, the pose is good and Dynamic, i really Hope they bring back the old lugia wich wasn't problematic..

    Lugia is such a beloved pokemon and i've seen a lot of people complaining online about the new Artwork, i really Hope they listen to the community and bring back the old one, the work is allready done..
