More evidence why 2D > 3D. The fossil mon look god-awful as 3D models, but as 2D sprites I actually kinda like them.

What if home let you play Pokemon battles, separate from any game? You collect and trade them there, and then fight battles. Something akin to Arena for MTG.

IDK man, considering it will probably need cloud services and a constant subscription going off of how they handled bank, I would trust it as far as I could throw it.
also considering its Nintendos online combined with Game Freaks programming, that makes me extra wary.
 
I think people are way too optimistic about this new Pokemom title. The game is a straight port of Sun & Moon engine, which is a straight port of X & Y. This is a title from from 2012 mind you. They basically had to deliberately cut out all the things they did, this wasn't a time constraint issue. I know people are excited for a new game in a franchise, especially on the Switch which I love. But you are better off buying Ultra Sun and Moon because it's a better Pokemon game. I mean it's literally an improvement over Sword and Shield in every way. The online battling is free too. It makes me sad to say this.

Galar Darmanitan has Zen Mode as it's hidden ability again, turns it into a snowman and it regains its fire typing on top of gaining 20 (!) base attack and 40 (!!!) base speed.

>995 - Darmanitan 2 (Stage: 2)
>Base Stats: 105.140.55.30.55.95 (BST: 480)
>Abilities: Gorilla Tactics (1) | Gorilla Tactics (2) | Zen Mode (H)
>Type: Ice

>995 - Darmanitan 3 (Stage: 2)
>Base Stats: 105.160.55.30.55.135 (BST: 540)
>Abilities: Gorilla Tactics (1) | Gorilla Tactics (2) | Zen Mode (H)

So the datamine has determined all prior gen Pokemon in the game are identical copies of the models and textures of the 3DS titles. Any differences in appearance are due to compression of the hi-res textures on the 3DS and differences in the lighting engine. I will update if this turns out not to be the case, but it's looking 95% accurate approaching 100% within the next day or so.

Huh, they didn't alter even minor details?
I thought they would improve it a little bit somehow but just like the main game itself, they half assed it

Yup wireframes, textures, and UVmaps are a direct rip so far. It was probably more work for the them to cut the Pokemon than it was to just port Sun and Moon fully over. This wreaks of mass $$$ micro-transactions plans. I think it will come out as I originally thought, that Sword and Shield are actually a direct Sun & Moon port onto the Switch. More like an expansion for a new area than a new game.

Maybe GameFreak should just work alongside Genius Sorority, try to expand or give another studio another chance to do it. The more I hear about this game, the angrier I get and want to yell at the blind apologists for defending this lazy garbage.

I just want a pokemon game to go through a full 5 years of dev time for once, no bullshit, one gen per system, maybe remakes if they want to, but it's more profitable to release 2 per console gen so they wont do shit.

I actually would love a longer development cycle, but the Pokemon Company more likely wants a pokemon game every year for merchandise sales and marketing for other products. I would even take something similar to Pokemon Colosseum and XD : Gale of Darkness instead.
 
Since it's not already on here, heres the full dump so far. It's been stated the game uses a fork of Let's Go game engine, I was wrong :heart-empty:.
