A leaked image of a new Costumed Dragonite in Pokémon Go has disappointed players, who feel that the design lacks effort and creativity. The costume features sunglasses and a bow tie, which are also present in the Shiny version. However, players believe that more could have been done to visually enhance the Pokémon.
Many fans expressed their disappointment, describing the costume as a collection of random elements added to an existing model without much thought. They believe that Costumed Pokémon should have unique and visually appealing outfits, such as colorful scarves, special gem necklaces, or belts.
Others shared the same sentiment, deeming the costume “pretty lame” and uninspired to the point where it almost appears fake. Players are urging Niantic, the game’s developer, to put more effort into designing costumes, suggesting even simple additions like a matching tuxedo suit or a top hat would greatly improve the appearance.
One player even compared the Costumed Dragonite to the Marine Style Dragonite costume in Pokémon Unite, noting the stark difference in creativity and attention to detail. They praised the military-style clothing in Unite, which featured intricate buttons, pockets, medals, and a perfectly matching hat.
Players are hopeful for more imaginative and detailed Costume Pokémon in Pokémon Go, similar to those found in Pokémon Unite. However, their expectations are not high following the release of this lackluster Dragonite costume.
Pikachu has had numerous cute and fancy costumes, such as the Rock Star Pikachu. However, for other Pokémon, the costumes are often simple, consisting of hats or flowers on their heads. Nevertheless, players still consider these costumes to be a step above the leaked Costumed Dragonite, especially considering the ill-fitting sunglasses.
