When Brawl showcased Pit for the first time it was as if he hadn't been missing in action for over a decade. Not only was he back but he was completely modernised - he even had a a 3D trophy model in Melee with a drastically different interpretation of the character. The interesting thing with Pit is this resurrected design in Super Smash Bros. would become the basis of the character going forward and he would dawn the exact same getup in Kid Icarus Uprising. Modern Pit completely feels like Sakurai's character and it's only fitting that he would also direct Uprising.

A few attributes were lifted from Myths and Monsters such as his darker hair colour but for the most part, this was a complete reimagining of Pit and it's very hard to go back to his older interpretation.

Was going to say Penelo in Revenant Wings but it appears my memory lied to me so never mind.

Isaac Clarke's face in Dead Space 2 is a great design.

It was intentionally plain in the first and you didn't see it much and he ended up looking kinda similar but thinned out and with a stubble and it looked really good.

I miss old Pit's red hair colour tho. Not even an alt colour in Smash!

I seem to be in the minority, but I think current Pikachu design's a lot better than the round shape it started out as.

Does Noctis count?
He looked like Sasuke wearing a trashbag in 2006, a lot of things about Versus 13 interest me, but not the designs.

There are a lot of good and much needed redesigns in the new KI. I'm posting Jago, but also Fulgore, Orchid, TJ Combo, Spinal and Sabrewulf are worth mentioning.

He looks worse in CGI cutscenes in game. Really shallow face with duck lips.

Not only looks better, but his new VA fits so well too.
