No it’s because Nebby, the pokemon, evolves within the main game story plot, and Lillie does not become more than maybe a few months older when Nebby evolves (furthermore Team Skull disbands after the game ends) and in Pokemon, Pokemon can not de-evolve.
Nowhere was the art tagged as aged up, it was tagged as ‘corrupted’ and I find it important to once again point out that not only do the team skull tops not go that low collar wise, but that the art of Lillie is missing the bandana that all grunts wear, a bandana that would also cover whatever the collar of the shirt doesn’t.
So why did LAM not only remove the bandana from the outfit, but also alter the outfit to have a lower neckline while increasing Lillie’s bust enough for her cleavage to look like that?
Once again, notice how Rapp, whose design is just the female team Skull Grunt, is drawn, notice how even when her banana is not covering her neck the neckline is still higher than LAM depicts it on Lillie.
Now notice how Lillie’s top doesn’t even have the white edge of the top (Hell it’s drawn more like a Vee neck, despite it not being a Vee neck in canon)
You see the difference right? The bandana being missing wouldn’t expose her chest like that, a chest size which she is never shown having.
(Behold, Lillie as she appears post game and during the main game, notice how she is completely flat)
Even if the team skull top had a neckline as low as LAM drew it, Lillie would not have the cleavage she is depicted as having by LAM.
Plumeria, an adult woman and member of team Skull, wears a modified version of the outfit and even here the neckline is not as low as LAM drew Lillie’s. (Though in the official art it does get pretty close)
And you know what makes this even worse? If this was an example of LAM trying to give Lillie a unique Team Skull Outfit, then why does it take nothing from the outfit Lillie’s brother, Gladion, wears while HE works alongside team skull?
This is what Galdion wears as an enforcer of Team Skull, which covers him even MORE than a normal team Skull uniform would.
Hell Lillie has a design you can alter if you wanted to make a team Skull variant!
This is Lillie’s post canon outfit, this is canonly the kind of thing she chooses to wear after she is able to choose her own clothing (and wouldn’t you know it, it’s a short sleeved hoodie just like what he brother wears)
Lillie in canon, as per her character and personality, isn’t the kind of person who would wear what LAM drew her in, it does not fit her personality even slightly, so why did LAM alter the team skull uniform to be even MORE revealing, including taking away the iconic bandana?
Why are you defending this Raf? Why are you defending what any normal person can see is someone altering an outfit in a way to sexualize the female character they drew wearing it as being nothing? Is it because Exist pointed it out and Arby defended it so you’re so starved to make us look terrible that you’ll latch onto anything regardless of how you actually feel? Cause it fuckin seems that way.
