I mean the game does not care if I have totally wacky files so long as they have the right name and format. It displays 007.png for a Chyinmunk. Even if 007.png is something out there.

The thing that bugs me the most about Birbie's design is mostly the eye really. Looks a lot better, and if you make the white of the eye a bright blue color (like Pikipek) you can keep the theme of having a big face on the front to ward of predators. Pokemon has a lot of very well defined stylistic stuff to it, particularly in eyes/claws/etc. The most jarring thing to me usually is how fan designs tend to not follow this very well. Spritework dithering or poorly-defined shapes be damned.

I can imagine that it can be hard to come up with a design for your fake pokemon, especially if you're making like, 150 of them or however many you decide to include. Not every idea can be good, and even some good ideas might just not pan out as well in the final product. Like, Chiynmunk, and Birbie. Like, they're alright enough. They could be better or improved a bit, but the idea is pretty solid (for Birbie anyways), and I get what they're going for. But then you get Barewl and it's like "what the heck is this strange beast". I can imagine the design came about like this, more or less: Though it'd be an improvement if that was the case.

Heh, the first time I discovered asset-swapping, I made some very immature changes to an old Windows 95 game called Castle of the Winds. That Teen Birbie Squad goof was a great mistake. Regarding the actual game, one very unfortunate technical issue persisting throughout the game, that I don't believe has been mentioned yet, is how choppy it is. The FPS is regularly in the teens on the overworld map areas, and in-battle I've had it chug down to single digits. I believe this is a compatibility issue with the specific RPG Maker engine used for Uranium on modern hardware, so there isn't really any good fix for it. Even if you go into the project with as much good faith as possible, it's hard to not assume that's a laziness issue, instead of an unfixable technical issue (aside from completely porting the game up to a new RPG maker version, which I have no idea how practical that is). If this game only makes 25% of its shots that's still pretty acceptable for amateur work, in my opinion. I do wish the community wasn't so unfortunate; I ended up getting temp-banned from the Pokemon Uranium subreddit, and never felt like going back, but I guess that's my fault for trying to go against the grain of that community.

A lot of the design here seems to be based around either throwing whatever the artists could put together and then statting it based on appearance or to arbitrarily fill some kind of meta. There's a very common and recurring issue around the type combinations and coverage they choose for the Fakemon but I'll let OFS go over that. Needless to say, it doesn't even remotely consider the possibility that children or just casual players of the series would be playing this.
