yeah probably lol
It basically sounds like they're gonna continue with the current release structure but they do want to address the major problems SV had in future titles (but unfortunately leaving SV as is for some ungodly reason, possibly due to janky code).Takato Utsunomiya said:
The Pokémon Trading Card Game is also pretty damn good despite being the TCG equivalent of Methuselah. You'll jut have to remember that your collection will always be missing two cards due to Card Pop being disabled.
Pure grass types have that problem where they mostly only learn grass and normal moves. at least Serpy has that Leaf Storm + Contrary combo and a nice design, I don't like Meganium's bland design, Bayleef looks better. And Ho-Oh's shiny is one of the best in the franchise, it's hard to compete with that.
bro at this point you could just cut the Reshiram and Zekrom model in half, put em together and add kyurems color scheme, the result is still going to be better than what to come.
Should be Grass/Dragon Type like in Blaze Black/Volt white.
Pseudo Legendarys used to be a highlight of every generation and dont have to be intimidating. Even Goodra, both forms, have their appeal (not that kind of appeal they have for a certain tumblr lolcow) and fits into the Kalos' theme like Garchomp fits the cave region that is Sinnoh. Dragapult was a huge disappointment and this ugly ass shaved Duraludon is no better.
It's pretty great, I can't believe I forgot about it. It'd be nice to finally get the sequel officially translated too, but that will probably never happen. I wish they would just edit those cards into your save file, I know they've made special save files for other NSO games before.
Lmao, thanks. It doesn't get nearly enough love. Porygon-Z is great but kinda makes me sad if I think about it too hard
Haha, that's funny. Gen 7 onward is where I started really diverging from the design philosophy (it's still a pretty damn good generation, it just gave me way more mons that I dislike than most- the difference between it and what came after is that it still had enough good designs for me to be more than happy with the franchise as a whole) whereas 6 is the last generation I really really loved. So much so that I made another list solely with designs from 1-6 (and their alternate forms that came later).
I don't think they really have a choice with SV. The way the Pokemon machine is structured gives them no time to go back and fix shit outside of things like releasing DLC or hasty patches during the generation's life cycle. If they really are going to start slowing things down (which I doubt, but hope for) then they'd definitely have to start doing it with generation 10 instead of attempting to start now.
Except that in BW + BW2, Contrary isn't accessible whatsoever both due to Snivy being a starter and the fact that Hidden Abilities were locked to Hidden Grottos and the now-defunct Dream World until gen 6+, so you can't even have fun with that combo outside of one single event that I downloaded
in gen 6 that might've allowed you to make Serperior usable.
A product that's set to be a "X killer" is bound to fail. Remember when Sony's own Killzone was claimed to be the Halo killer just to spite Microsoft, and look how that turned out.
Brands that big don't get killed by the competition unless they face a major scandal that creates a movement away from the property (Bud Light Effect). The sheer mass of the enterprise will keep merchandise churning for decades. Kids get shown the old series by nostalgic parents who also let them engage with the new content because they remember it being clean entertainment and is an easy fixation to cater to.
I had a blast with Legends Arceus. To me it felt like my childhood dreams came true with it (it's very close to what I always have wished for in terms of gameplay in Pokemon games) and it is the first time since Red/Blue that I 100% a Pokemon game.
That sounds very stupid
I like Dragapult's head and its transparent tail, even if the rest of its deisgn is just a boring lizard.
Oh, you meant in their debut generation? My starter Serperior in White is decent with Leaf Blade and Coil/Swords Dance, but yeah it gets destroyed in online play,Except that in BW + BW2, Contrary isn't accessible whatsoever both due to Snivy being a starter and the fact that Hidden Abilities were locked to Hidden Grottos and the now-defunct Dream World until gen 6+, so you can't even have fun with that combo outside of one single event that I downloaded
Or, you know, hacking.
Gay
Yeah, I don't tend to consider how mon perform in competitive because it's like my least favorite aspect of the games and I'm always so late to the online-play party that I rarely get to participate. In base BW Serperior sucks dick until like gym 7-8 when it finally gets Coil/Swords Dance but by that point almost every other grass type you can find outclasses it (Sawsbuck has Horn Leech and a better Attack stat + Normal STAB,
When you put it that way, yeah, Serperior sounds quite useless, but honestly I didn't notice it playing through the games as a kid. Unless you're doing a challenge run you can just overlevel to make up for any weaknesses in movepool or typing, and as Serperior is a starter it's more likely to be overleveled than most other Pokemon (especially because it's decent early game as you said). Also, I'm one of those people that picks Pokemon based on their design without really caring if they're good.
I also go off of design, but there comes a point where even a mon's design isn't enough to save it. I fucking love Ariados but even in HGSS it's so completely useless that it's obsolete before it even has a chance at proving otherwise. Same goes for Beheeyem and Kabutops to a lesser extent. Serperior and Meganium have never bothered me due to that affinity for their designs (that being: I don't hate them), but their poor performance is noticeable and I tend not to pick either unless I'm explicitly looking for a challenge... which, to be fair, I now do like 90% of the time when replaying lol.
