So was it ever explained why the menu sprites for the Galarian Legendary Birds weren't just made in the style of the regular birds?
All three birds got new icons in both forms. Previously they looked like this: Now they look like this: And the Galarian ones: They made the icons bigger in Sword and Shield. They actually started making icons bigger in X/Y with Mega Evolutions in particular, but it has since extended to many other species. Here's the problem: PFQ's layout does not support icons of this size. It supports 32x32 icons, and no bigger. Fitting larger icons would require a major redesign of many parts of the site, as well as re-programming the Display Codes to support it. So instead, we have custom-made icons that mimic the new style but actually fit in a 32x32 box: Which, personally, I think is incredibly good work <3
