A lot of these designs feel very... out there to me. It almost doesn't even feel like a Pokemon game.

Maybe it's the 3D models, but they all look too round and plasticiney for me, spare for a few decent-looking mons.
And maybe I'm just getting old, but they also lack the charm older mons had, until like gen 6/7.
 
I want to throw hands with anyone who sees these and still thinks gen 5 is an ugly gen. That primeape evo is a war crime.

Tulip be lookin like Natasha Legerro lol

I'm still debating. I'm leaning towards Scarlet but i dunno. I'm curious if the version professors provide differences as well as the architecture, towns, etc.

Dachsbun tho 🥰🥰🥰

sorry if this is annoying, im trying not to read the leaks, but there's some mechanical info i wish i had. does anyone have the answers to these questions?

1. does terastallizing use up your turn, like mega evolving or etc? (i assume yes)
2. terastalizing uses up energy from the terestal orb or whatever. is that orb an actual held item, or just a key item or something?
3. is there an item like an ability patch that will change the tera type of a pokemon?
4. do ability patch and bottle caps come back in scarlet/violet?
5. are all "past" paradox forms exclusive to scarlet, and all "future" paradox forms exclusive to violet?
6. do "normal" basic pokemon evolve into the paradox forms, or are there paradox forms of the whole line? e.g. a normal form phanpy evolves into one of the paradox donphan, or no?
 
got the rom off of /vp/, the game is not ass, menus are clean as shit. bravo gamefreak, it took ohmori what, 3 gens to make a game he directed that wasn't ass?
 
RetardKun has been streaming for the game for like 14 hours, still running after waking up and watching last night. Been funny seeing all the crappy, cringe and/or unfinished things in the game while watching RetardKun live up to his namesake by playing like a mentally handycapped child.

I'm a sucker for the kind of weirder/goofier pokemon designs (Vanilluxe is a legit top 5 favourite of mine fuck the h8ers) so I like pretty much everything so far except Sprig's evo which looks like a really shitty Sonic OC. Fuecoco evolving into Serpentera from Power Rangers makes up for it though.

Usually in the past I felt like people were just reaching when they made statements like this, because you could tell it was just a code for "this pokemon has a design element or a bright color scheme I don't like wah-wah-wah where's my desaturated ugly pokemon like in gen 1 gamefreak pls fix" but in this case I gotta agree.

I'm not complaining and saying they're all bad. It doesn't matter what Pokemon game you play, there are clear winners and losers. Like Clodsire. Clodsire is an absolute cutie and fits right in with every other Pokémon released to date and has absolutely no design flaws. Everything else though? I've never played whatever the hell Temtem is but if if you pointed at most Pokemon this generation and told me they were made available in a Temtem expansion, I might believe you.

I'm going to pick up Violet and try to have fun with it. Maybe it will grow on me over time.
 
Anyone got any story/character leaks by the way? I know its autistic to care about the story of a children's game but given I will have to endure whatever mess the writers came up with for the first couple of hours of playing it I wanna know for how much cringe I need to prepare myself for.

Best mindset to go into this with, to be honest. When I picked up Sword a few years back I thought the same and thought that even if it ended up being terrible, I'd probably be entertained by it for a while. In the end I was pleasantly surprised and actually ended up liking it quite a bit, despite all its flaws.

I might pick up Violet as well. I don't care too much about the exclusives given one can just trade them in but I think the box legendary in that one looks slightly less retarded at least.
 
Some game fluff hinting at the DLC was apparently found in the game.

It’s basically a mishmash of the three Legendary Beasts and I suspect that Paradox Virizion will be the same thing (with the possibility of having Keldeo thrown in for consistency’s sake).

EDIT: HP-recovering moves like Roost and Recover have had their PP counts nerfed, they’re now limited to 5 PP. Stallfags on suicide watch.

EDIT 2:
Protean has been nerfed, it now only activates once each time the Pokemon enters the battle instead of activating whenever the Pokemon attacks. There are also rumors that Intimidate only works once per battle in order to prevent stacking stat drops.

Paradox Suicune looks great. I like that concept way more than what we have seen so far with the other paradoxes.
And now GF has an excuse to have this in the games wow

It's weird to think that the most profitable media franchise has the ability and money to hire the best concept designers in the world, but they just don't use it. But considering the success/quality ratio of the latest games, they apparently don't need to.
