I mean at this point Joe might as well be an extension of TPC's marketing arm so it makes sense why he would do itView attachment 1001346
Is Game Freak not fucking around, or is Serebii Joe doubling down? You decide.

Like I said before, whether or not the designs can be considered good is an entirely subjective matter. Some like them, others don't.IM SO FUCKING SICK OF YOU PEOPLE SHITTING ON APPLETON, HE IS FUCKING KINO.View attachment 1001341
Hold on, did they just give this thing a stronger grass type acid spray?View attachment 1001382
Ok since you little fags dont get it.
>body designed for peak tanking, no need for anything else
>dumped all defensive stats into hp because it isnt a cuck
>every time he cooms he lowers your shitmons special defense
>ripens all the berries he carries to give him huge stat boost or full heals.
>chad grass/dragon typing.
And an ability that doubles the effects of berries.Hold on, did they just give this thing a stronger grass type acid spray?
There's the usual shilling and corporate dick sucking, but he also nearly got his career completely demolished during BW for dealing with leaks. So ever since then he pussies out and turns tail the second he gets even a whiff of trouble that daddy Game Freak isn't happy. Undoubtedly they yanked his leash earlier as well when Dexit first became known at E3. He was in agreement that it was a bad choice but then out of nowhere he went 180 to full-blown shiller mode.View attachment 1001346

Its impressive that they managed to fit half of the galar Pokédex in one trailer.https://youtube.com/watch?v=nShZJFxuMh8"Fanbrase revroltingu? Ohmori-kun, give gaijin Charizardu trailer! KRANTUUUUUUU"
Also the comments are disabled, fuckin amazing.
Someone posted the official tweet of this ad elsewhere and by the time I clicked on the link the tweet was outright taken down, probably because of the flood of negative replies. Our Japanese brethren are that pissed. Amazing.https://youtube.com/watch?v=nShZJFxuMh8"Fanbrase revroltingu? Ohmori-kun, give gaijin Charizardu trailer! KRANTUUUUUUU"

they do that alot in japan, even smash's comments sections are always nuked for some reasonAlso the comments are disabled, fuckin amazing.
Thing is I don't doubt its going to sell, its pokemon, but shit like not giving out review copies and the leak being were we got all of our info instead makes me think we might actually get some people to not use kid gloves when discussing this genThey should bottle GF's tears and sell it, mmmm delicious. Put out a shit game, lie continuously, get caught red handed two weeks before the game drops. I mean yea no one should be that crazy over Pokemon, but let's be real they are this upset because a ton of preorders got cancelled and think this will significantly impact sales.
Game Freak logic.
- Spending a year coming up with a new feature that would justify you cutting 5 major features from the past 6 years.
- Spend 6 months designing the tall grass for the game and realize your running out of time.
- Cry because you you put in QoL changes that have been requested for 15 years but forgot you converted 3DS onto the Switch and it looks terrible.
- It's ok cut out most of the Pokemon at random and then reuse everything you possibly can from Sun & Moon.
- Trickle out as little information as possible about the game.
- Pray no one actually plays the game before it comes out.
I think it will probably impact sales about 10-15% which let's say the game had the potential to sell 20 million copies (which it did), they will lose about $120-180 million. That's nothing to scoff at. By the way the Japanese fans are reacting though, I think it may be much higher over there. Maybe up to 25%.they do that alot in japan, even smash's comments sections are always nuked for some reason

Correct, my mistake. But the point of the tweet being deleted still remains.I thought that was the case for all Japanese comment sections
Well, considering recent events, it's not that hard to figure out why they're being that way.I collect artist made enamel pins including Pokemon ones and back a lot of Kickstarters since it's an easy way for indie artists to fund pins. Up until maybe a month ago Pokemon Kickstarters got left alone then all the sudden Nintendo began shutting them down en masse. It's bizarre since Nintendo usually left indie artists alone (Japanese companies see fan works that aren't bringing in tons of money as free advertising) but for some reason Sword and Shield has them a little more aggro than usual.
I buy Nintendo brought the hammer down on Serebii. It's baffling to see them get this aggressive when they haven't been before.
Not surprising, given how Sword and Shield are turning out. These do not look like games designed by people super excited and dedicated to a project; they look like games designed by people who got burnt out years ago and don't have the energy to care.For the sake of context:

Apparently morale at GF is at a downtime low, according to a podcast... That I can't really play for some reason.

This whole Dexit thing only became a big deal because of four factors. I think most people were willing to understand that like 1000 different Pokemon in a game was a bit unmanageable, however the situation had to be handled a lot better and with a lot of polish. I think they seriously underestimated that being the main appeal of Pokemon to begin with. I think it would have been forgiven if there weren't such a glaring issues.Not surprising, given how Sword and Shield are turning out.

I doubt it's just the Dexit crowd's REEEEing that's bringing Game Freak's mood down, though gaining the ire of fans obviously isn't helping. They're becoming second fiddle to a fucking mobile game. Even if the core Pokemon games they develop are no longer the main focus of the franchise they're still expected to crank out a game every year or two. Their latest attempt at branching out with a new IP is shaping up to be a critical and financial flop. And now individual employees can't talk about Pokemon without getting chewed out, even if they had zero control over choices like which Pokemon got culled. It's no wonder morale is low. Game Freak sounds like an incredibly depressing place to work at right now.
