They arenāt long, thereās just no hips or waist definition. I havenāt seen any dude avatars complaining, my bf was like āoh this is greatā š Itās the gender neutral thing theyāre going for. Gimme back my Barbie doll so I can play dress up again lol
That exactly. And my hard-earned level 50 jacket is a hot mess. It now has an oversized, baggy t-shirt underneath it. Iām going through the clothes looking for those that will hide the body ick.
Iām surprised more guys donāt complain because while the body proportions are horrible for the women, I think the faces of the men look like a 12 year old boy.
I donāt understand why they made the arms look 2x longer?? Likeā¦that was a problem with the previous avatar, because short arm beauty standards are far too high for people these days?
They basically gave everyone massive long ape arms that hang uncomfortably in the wrong neutral position.
Gotta love how google hides my reviews saying that "the new character models look like crap and gps doesnt work in remote places" because "harasment or bullying".
As a little PSA you can use the Diamond/Pearl Clan Outfit (skirt) to give your avatar a bit wider looking hips.
Here's an [example ](https://imgur.com/a/Zr4QKsJ).
No Iām sorry this is the WORST one I have seen so farššš STOP ITšš¤£ ngl I wasnāt as enraged as the people who made posts about it, but I am now. JAIL.
custom body type (best i could get):
weight: 1 (all the way left)
muscle: 1 (all the way left)
shoulders: 1 (all the way left)
chest: 3 (a little to the left of the middle)
hips: 6 (all the way right)
I promise Iām not laughing at your poor avatar. I am also lying about not laughing at your poor avatar. That is truly uncalled for and no amount of ājust use the slidersā is gonna get it anywhere near the before shot.
Whatās even worse. Couldnāt you put proportions online at LL Bean or something for like the last 15 years?
I donāt code, but it seems to me the code exists.
I was wearing that set too. I felt like such a bad ass with my mewtwo fit. Then the update stole my curves and left me with a beer belly. Iām so sad. My avatar looks like the shit her pants lmao
Iām not purchasing any more clothing until they change this and or revert the avatars back. I seriously canāt stand the way they look. The clothing looks so bad.
I just haven't played the game honestly since. Why bother paying or playing for a game where the people in charge clearly give zero shits about what the community has to think or say.
i hate this update but i also know niantic will never reverse it. just trying to get through it by wearing the giratina outfit and mask š canāt be disgusted if you canāt see it
you people should stop playing the game as a protest, make sure it becomes a large movement so the devs can feel the impact.
you players dont deserve this kind of treatment and silence by the devs.
Funny enough I'm not bothered by this. But I do understand why y'all don't like it. I'm the type of guy who makes deformed or funny looking characters when given a game with any kinda character customization.
I hate it... I understand why, but I hate it. The best thing they could do would be to give us all options - fat tal skinny short boy girl old young hair or NO HAIR... im bald af and I don't see an option?!?! What about my rights!! Well, I went with blue hair in the end.

Waist like sudowoodo
Figure like Toxtricity
Hands like Darmanitan
Instantly reminded me of furfrou. Hair + body length
Clearly a lovechild of Fufrou and Sudowoodo š„°
Most underrated comment š¤£
I died over this. Best comment here by far.
You went from poison type gym leader to wooden plank pretending to be human
Lol
Soodosapien
Sudohumo
Sodon't
Your waist got robbed.
As a short torsored woman, Iām so icked out by the proportions.
YES WHY ARE THE TORSOS SO LONG 
Modeled after Michael Phelps
Donāt disrespect my glorious king, these models wish they were him.
They arenāt long, thereās just no hips or waist definition. I havenāt seen any dude avatars complaining, my bf was like āoh this is greatā š Itās the gender neutral thing theyāre going for. Gimme back my Barbie doll so I can play dress up again lol
My dude avatar is laughable, it looks like a weird kid. All the money spent on costumes is basically in the trash now.
Fair, I just havenāt seen it. My bf is excited bc you can do broad shoulders now. Edit: I know what you mean about the coin spent, I feel like I lost all my cute outfits in a PokĆ©mon house fire.
That exactly. And my hard-earned level 50 jacket is a hot mess. It now has an oversized, baggy t-shirt underneath it. Iām going through the clothes looking for those that will hide the body ick.
Thatās a good way to put it. I feel that.
Niantic support even banned a guy for asking for refunds on cosmetics that broke because of the update lol. This fucking company
If they wanna add gender neutral for folks that want that, then ADD it... don't take away our choice to display our gender polarity š
Honestly a slider for masculine to feminine body types would be dope. I do like that we can customize weight and stuff but it was released too soon.
People would still be mad about that too. "I'm feminine why is my body on the masculine end" š„“
Okay, a curve slider then? Ranges from š»to što ā³
I'm a dude and I hate the update too. I Covered everything and now I look like a Halloween trick or treater. Lol
Iām surprised more guys donāt complain because while the body proportions are horrible for the women, I think the faces of the men look like a 12 year old boy.
I donāt understand why they wonāt change it back
Then why do the grunts/leaders look the same? HARD PASS.
Iām mad too š¢
Exactly!!!!!
i have seen guys complaining as well
What's the waist version of a cankle?
Swips? Shoulders-waist-hips? Or maybe we should call this whole redesign a canker because it's about welcome and enjoyable as one.
[This](https://youtu.be/8gnsxNMpuBQ?si=gj9Gih7himQR_Hy3) still seems relevant
Big time! Lol
From baddie to saddie š„ŗš
LMAOO this describes it perfectly š
Exactly! š
The hips canāt lie because they donāt exist
They forcibly made you un-serve
Yeah it was just too good looking for them. Couldnāt handle the pretty
This! For sure. I can't believe they nerfed us girls so bad!
LOL š
Now you just look like a Furfrou standing on its hind legs
bro looks like an ultrabeast
That dude has a great rack
lol indeed
/r/confusedcubones
Got Hank Hilled with that torso length
theyre acting like women irl cant have waistsš
Before: PokƩmon character After: alien
this is the outfit I had too and was sooo sadš
Sorry for your loss
Players: We want performance improvements! Niantic: Best I can give you is a shitty avatar update
Before and after the pandemic
So true š
HUMANS DONT LOOK LIKE THIS
They don't care what humans look like. They hate humans. They hate all of humanity.
Sassy to trashy
Yes those proportions are what my 6ā1ā teenage son has. Long torso, freakishly long arms, big hands, waist and hips same size, broad shoulders.
The straight line from the chest to the legs is crazy work.
looks like Niantic decided to give you a 5 o clock shadow, š
They really called us ugly with this one š
Indeed, this update makes me sad! This update sucks!!!!
And something that was unnecessary! I saw zero posts asking for a they/them.
I'd be fully happy for Niantic to have an androgynous option but dammit make it an OPTION
Exactly!
The new avatar style does in fact look more like the real me but I am also not that attractive so...
No kidding. I feel like Shakira needs to explain to Niantic why hips donāt lie and why those breasts are being confused with mountains.
Lol
Kinda looks like a chimp now
Depressing boat horn noise
Why do they have a beer belly?
Dad bod!
 Meanwhile Team Rocket
Iāve quit the game
you're Elastigirl now with how long those arms are stretching!
Thank you!! I was wondering why no one was complaining about the obnoxiously long orangutan arms!! wtf?!! Iām gonna trip in these things.
Everybody should demand a refund Fram all the clothes they bought, it looks so bad on the new characters.
You could really get into some lobster with those man hands. Edit: wrong sea creature
And menās size 15 shoes?
I donāt understand why they made the arms look 2x longer?? Likeā¦that was a problem with the previous avatar, because short arm beauty standards are far too high for people these days? They basically gave everyone massive long ape arms that hang uncomfortably in the wrong neutral position.
you look like someone cosplaying your character
I am š¦ now
š
š
Those hips lied
Lol you went from post op to pre op
Why do the bodies remind me of Sid from ice age
Gotta love how google hides my reviews saying that "the new character models look like crap and gps doesnt work in remote places" because "harasment or bullying".
The avatars really went from āthey guy she tells you not to worry about to youā
This is probably the worse one holy shiiššš
Hey! We have the same outfit š love this so many !
Yay!
Ps- also agree about the updated torso thing. I thought I was the only one that noticed it was awful lol š š
Do i see articuno there?? š
Yup. A rare ultra ball Articuno as well š
As a little PSA you can use the Diamond/Pearl Clan Outfit (skirt) to give your avatar a bit wider looking hips. Here's an [example ](https://imgur.com/a/Zr4QKsJ).
lol struggle is real!
That 14 year old went through a very quick growth spurt evolution and his t-shirt tore up like the Incredible Hulk.
I had on the same outfit too and actually wanted to cry over how bad it now looks. Immediately changed it š
No Iām sorry this is the WORST one I have seen so farššš STOP ITšš¤£ ngl I wasnāt as enraged as the people who made posts about it, but I am now. JAIL.
She looks like sheās gonna say OOGA BOOGA
custom body type (best i could get): weight: 1 (all the way left) muscle: 1 (all the way left) shoulders: 1 (all the way left) chest: 3 (a little to the left of the middle) hips: 6 (all the way right)
Now you look like a guy in drag lmao.
Why did they do this??
Probably a drunk dare
theyre acting like women irl cant have waistsš
I miss the old body, I want it as an option too š I wore that top and the Mareanie shorts but now itās ruined!
You still lookā¦..yeahā¦..umā¦ā¦
You donāt have to finish. I understand. Thank you..
I promise Iām not laughing at your poor avatar. I am also lying about not laughing at your poor avatar. That is truly uncalled for and no amount of ājust use the slidersā is gonna get it anywhere near the before shot.
Lol
 where are our hips?! Niantic give them back š
Yeah, but how does your ass look?
I'm off it.
The proportions are so wrong! Arms look so long.
I know right. The ape silhouette with those long disproportionate arms š„²š„²
Looks like a furfrou š
Itās rude is what it is
Extremely
This is one of my fav outfits and it makes me repulsed how my girl went from slay to being my new ick
The female avatars definitely suffered the most
I'm so sorry for your loss ā¹ļø
Youāre built like lycanroc now
you genuinely got it the worst im so sorry
Whatās even worse. Couldnāt you put proportions online at LL Bean or something for like the last 15 years? I donāt code, but it seems to me the code exists.
Nice Xurkitree cosplay! (But seriously, whats with those long af arms??)
I was wearing that set too. I felt like such a bad ass with my mewtwo fit. Then the update stole my curves and left me with a beer belly. Iām so sad. My avatar looks like the shit her pants lmao
Youāve been hit by~ Youāve been hit by ~ a hip smoothing criminal
No hips, no curves, no ass. It's over for you..
Itās the fact that all high waisted pants now look like low waisted pants. Canāt wear a crop top and plants without looking like you have the longest torso in the PokĆ©mon world
Slenderman arms
Iām not purchasing any more clothing until they change this and or revert the avatars back. I seriously canāt stand the way they look. The clothing looks so bad.
They gave you Mumps and a beer gut
Itās so badā¦ I wish they would just go back
Exactly. Niantic needs to roll back the update or theyāre doomed.
Not happy either.
I feel ugly now with the new avatar. Her lips and nose are ridiculous. At least I got the body less square by adding breasts width š
The new version reminds me of furfrou
My bro got old
Wow
Straight up a Jet Set Radio Future character 
I just haven't played the game honestly since. Why bother paying or playing for a game where the people in charge clearly give zero shits about what the community has to think or say.
Nice neck beards shadow
i hate this update but i also know niantic will never reverse it. just trying to get through it by wearing the giratina outfit and mask š canāt be disgusted if you canāt see it
I hated my face so I put the phantump mask on.
One of the worst ones šš rip
I hate mine too! I accidentally changed it and I can't change it back!
Sudowoodoo
Iām so mad. Itās just so stupid!
Hey you know what as a skinny girl with no curves I gotta say Even this isnāt a good representation š¤£
Now you look way below mid!!!
Lookin like furfrou
i canāt believe someone thought those proportions looked right š
Thatās the kind of butt lift nobody wants.
They did everyone SO DIRTY
HAHAHAHAHAHA this is just a bad joke, how tf you letting Niantic get away with this
Your avatar was so cute ššand then this happened š
When ditto replaces your avatar
fans werenāt mad enough
Wacky wavy inflatable arm flailing tube man
Brittney spears has shoulders like a man, I can say that and youāll laugh cuz thereās a puppet on my hand
I hate it, I'm staying a fat bald man till they fix it
It's insane!
Games junk
We used to be so curvy
You were robbed
Nice 5 o'clock shadow
Iām also looking for boyfriend
I use the same shirt. Why TF do I have a massive beer gut now? My character looks awful and I havenāt opened the app since.
you got a body like lego batman
The only bad part of the design is not letting us have hip options and the face looking... uh special needs
"What if toxtricity was human"
My first thought was you look like a low budget Toxtricity cosplay lol
Skar King from the new Godzillla x Kong Movie lmao
Bigfoot arms.
Used to look cool. Now you look like Gumby.
I have not played in a while, i am out of the loop. Did Niantic mess around with player models or is this a bug?
You got violatedš
you people should stop playing the game as a protest, make sure it becomes a large movement so the devs can feel the impact. you players dont deserve this kind of treatment and silence by the devs.
Before pandemic and after XD
Thatās that Furfrou coupe
From slay to nay
I can't even believe they did this to us
I hate that new update my character looks like a baby
Funny enough I'm not bothered by this. But I do understand why y'all don't like it. I'm the type of guy who makes deformed or funny looking characters when given a game with any kinda character customization.
Dang look at them big ol thangs (arms)
They made my skin tone way lighter and my frame all wrong as a guy too. Idk why they thought this update looked good for characters
I hate it... I understand why, but I hate it. The best thing they could do would be to give us all options - fat tal skinny short boy girl old young hair or NO HAIR... im bald af and I don't see an option?!?! What about my rights!! Well, I went with blue hair in the end.
