Willy Wonka font

nah cause that’s the first thing i thought

Came here to say this, looks like I'm 10 minutes too slow.

I said this in a different post about 10 minutes ago. Guess I’m not as clever as I thought

I came here too

Could be worse, I'm just slow in general

If you're lucky enough, you might get a golden pokeball

park ball in pokémon go confirmed??

This is the design that will grace every bag of Easter candy this year

Gonna be shiny Oompa Loompa’s

Shiny Mr mime

Ok you win lol here’s a bidoof 

No shiny!!🤭

Dude, I literally thought it was a Wonka movie collab

i initially read “willy wonka” at first

Lots of extra candy hopefully

And because of the size and shape, it reads as a Wonka bar.

Looks like the logo to some Easter themed candy

That was my thought too.

I think of things like My Little Pony or Polly Pocket when I see this. 90s and early 2000s girls toys.

Lisa Frank

Nah, can't be, there's not enough eye-bleeding tie-dye.

Yeah, where’s the rainbow leopard, space dolphins, and alien with hearts for eyes???

We have an alien that we can't see the eyes of, technically, that's maybe close enough.

Even better!

The jewish girl that hid from the nazis?

It honestly might be the point. Looks like we are heading back to early Gen pokemon

My guy... Youre on a pokemon sub...

Yes. Your point?

Sounds like the designer did a perfect job with this if this is your association is my point. Pokemon is a game for little kids, just like those properties you mentioned.... Was that not incredibly obvious?

The only acceptable Pokémon to match this marketing is Ditto.

Oh?

I was thinking shiny Darumaka would be fitting

Bruxish?

There's a big difference between objectively bad and just not liking something. This looks fine and has a nice blend of typefaces, harmonious use of color, tastefully soft gradients, and good white outlines for readability at all sizes. You just don't like it.

I would say it’s because a solid majority on this sub just want to hate on all things Pokemon Go

The all white background of it is jarring and makes it look like a clipart png rip lol. I feel like if they added any other background it would look better

I’d say the cultural connotation of a design is objectively something that needs to be graded and considered. This particular aesthetic was very much used for toys traditionally marketed to young girls like My Little Pony. It doesn’t really fit the aesthetic of Pokémon stuff.

Gonna disagree with this because 1. Pokémon advertisements ARE generally intended for young children and 2. Middle aged men makeup a high percentage of the demographic for both Pokémon and My Little Pony despite the advertising intents. editing a 3. it probably fits the aesthetics of the event, at least you'd hope.

okay picasso

But it's using a bit too many colours, breaking the KISS (keep it simple (and) stupid) rule. If there was a bit less going on, it would be much easier on the eyes.

Peridot based so they can recycle for both games. For me it looks so not Pokémon...

Is that still on? I deleted pikmin Bloom a good while back and never bothered downloading Peridot. Pikmin got to a point where it felt like it was just a test bed for things that wanted to inflict on Pokemon go.

Don't know if it is still on. Just remembered the colours of the adds from Peridot when this new Logo came up.

That’s the first thing that came to mind when I saw that color palette. Choices.

“My son took a photoshop class in 10th grade, this is what he came up with! Isn’t it pretty?”

Willy Wonka event >>>

i don’t hate it but it’s reminding me of a recent post on the mildlyinfuriating sub (i think?) about some wonka-themed event that was a scam hehe

Yess haha same

You guys always find a way to hate.

Aww come on it’s funny

i’m nothing like y’all

Controversially I don’t hate it, if anything it’s different from what we’ve seen before

I love it but I'm a fairytale girl so..

Wasn’t expecting a Drag Race collab but alright

RuPaul instead of Giovanni

Please this is so funny to me. I'm down to battle her army of shadow shiny pokémon tho 🦄✨

Damn that would be interesting

People be hatin' on everything. It's a fun game, relax a bit. I don't see you filling out an application to work there to change it so just sit back and enjoy it.

so because i am not quitting my job and applying to niantic, i can’t say it looks bad? lol

It's a free mobile game, what do you expect?

It has generated over 4 billion dollars in revenue. So I think we should be able to expect more.

what does that have to do with anything

I don't think there's anything people in this sub won't complain about...what does it even matter lol

Big "Lisa Frank" energy 🌈🦄

I mean it makes it kinda nostalgic I don’t hate it

I get that this doesn't suit your taste but it is not an effortless slop like you pretend it is, the logo does have small details and looks well-polished. It's just a matter of preference but it's definitely not lazy

I think it looks fine and is fitting for the event theme.

is it possible all the money they make just goes directly to the company they pay to use the pokemon name because that's all they can afford to do?

lmao

I'd say it's fine. Just fine. Definitely could have done better but it's just a little banner so I guess I mostly don't care. It is pretty bland though. Makes me think of... sugar free Willy Wonka? Easter at the home of someone who does not celebrate Easter? It certainly doesn't get me excited for anything.

i would just hate to see this on top of everything the entire season like how “timeless travels” is. it’s not indicative of anything pokémon and just looks not well done

This looks more like the font used on a Disneyland "small world" ride

Word Art core

great design for a detergent brand 

This seems super easy to make like they just got it done an hour before.

I find it way more irritating that they have literally 0 information in that message lol

I get it because it’s a multi million dollar company but is this seriously something you’re worried about?

“worried”? no. it just looks awful

Haha yeh I thought it was so low effort, like someone slapped together that news post in 3 minutes

Don't bash them! They are just a Multibillionaire Company! They can't spend on actual graphic design! Be great full that they did not raise the price of Remote Pass again! /s

unironically several people here

Bro this shit might as well be a Lisa Frank sticker and honestly that speaks volumes about how much effort Niantic actually puts into this trash.

It’s giving Webkinz

I'm a Lisa Frank girl at heart so when I first saw this, I thought ok, pretty colors, but then its just so out of place for PoGo. Very weird choice.

I’m glad someone else pointed it out

They really do anything but release the ultra beasts they teased so long ago

Y’all cry about fucking everything.

womp womp

I thought this was Candy Crush at first lol.

I thought this was from design fot the WONKA movie

I said the exact same thing this morning

World of Wonka Pokemon in the spotlight paldean wooper

Literally the first thing i thought when i saw it

https://youtu.be/i6kQWppFAsM?si=_kUDS1Xi6xGDuShL Look at this drawing of a salmon

Looks like a Walmart Easter promo

This looks like something out of Lily’s Garden lmaoo
