Now I remember where I've seen that dumpy-looking apple crocodile before.

Probably won't happen as that would make him the objectively best choice type-wise and it would also mean we'll get another Water/Fairy starter to balance it out.

We've already had water/fairy from Popplio and I don't want the little cutie bird turn into a fairy twink.
Even though I think all three starters look cute, I'm going for the duck boy.

I hope that emulation will be smooth for the game when it first comes out, I want to try it for free before buying it.

And I'm 100% certain that the region is based on Spain because there's the building that looks like Sagrada Família, a famous cathedral that's been in the works for ages.

Can we also add hoping for a Pseudo-Legendary that isn't a dragon-type while were at it?

I love dragon-types but we haven't had a non-dragon type Pseudo-legendary since Metagross all the way back in Gen 3, twenty freaking years ago!

As a reptile/dinosaur/dragon enthusiast, fuck you. I see and acknowledge where you're coming from, and you're right, but fuck you.
 
New game looks nice, but did anyone else notice that they didn't show off the battling system? Can't wait to see how retarded the new gimmick is.

I won't be surprised if it gains the Fairy type.

I miss that series, although AlphaDream brought their failure upon themselves

Am I the only one who just doesn't see the appeal of shiny hunting? Like at all?

Finding the right Pokemon you want is already tedious enough as it is. Why would you want to search for hours and hours for one that's only difference is that it has different colors?

I've spent a lot of money on these stupid games, I want to get my money's worth. Since I can't battle competitively worth a damn the only thing I can do is shiny hunt to keep me playing after finishing the main story. Does it suck? Yeah, it isn't much of a reward at the end of the day, but it makes me happy and it's something I can just mindlessly do while listening to YouTube or something.
 
Pokémon starters lean two ways.

Either the starters for the gens are pretty good, or plain shit. It seems it’s leaning toward the latter this time around.

I can’t help but chuckle though at the Donald Trump hair on the water starter.
 
I can usually decide what starter I'm going to take by first appearance alone, and it looks like I'll be going with the grass cat this time. Croc boy looks a bit goofy, and duck is just duck. My guess is the final form of duck is gonna be some sort of giant swan or goose.

Yeah, right now I'm leaning toward Sprigatito (the cat) since I'm a cat person, but I'll wait and see what the final evolutions look like before I make my final choice.

Also just wanted to say that I'm hoping the duck has a sailor theme and his final evo's design takes inspiration from Popeye the Sailor.
 
One of weed cats eyes is fucked, I cannot unsee.

I fuckin' hate the daybreakers update in legends. Just when I was actually enjoying a Pokemon game for the first time since Emerald/White 2. Not even about the shiny hunting being patched, what did they fuck up with the ai in the update? Sitting back and chucking jet balls is pointless now since if it's an aggressive pokemon, the next one to spawn in will automatically know where you're at and aggro on you. I also don't really care for the massive mass outbreaks being on a timer either. It would make running around the map more fun if the spawns just stayed there until you cleared them out. If GF didn't like people resetting outbreaks, they incentived it with this new update. Save at camp, give the Munchlax berries, check the spawns. All garbage you don't want? Reload the save to get the berries back, leave and try again.


I'm hoping they keep the QoL changes from Arceus in the Gen 9 games though. At this point, they can't make a shittier mainline game than Sw/Sh though, so at least the new games have that going for them. Was a bit concerned when I saw gen 8 pokemon in the trailer, if the new norm moving forward is to not include every pokemon, can GF at least stop pretending that some pokemon suck and can be removed where nobody would miss them? Keep the fan favorites and removes the useless shit likeVolbeat/Illumise, Maracactus, the Gen 8 starters, etc.

I haven’t had that problem with the AI on mine. I can still chuck Jet Balls at aggressive Pokémon and so long as I move away a bit from where I throw, they don’t sense me.

I’m thinking we’ll go back to regular turn-based in Gen 9, but keep the “battle in the overworld” stuff from Arceus.

I'd be fine with that, the overworld battling is so much faster that it'd be hard to go back.

Agreed. Arceus managing to streamline and make battles go much faster was easily one of the best improvements to the formula.
