and what kind of world would it be? HUH?!
The only thing that worries me about the trailer is that during the Oranguru bit you can see how loving terrible the performance is during that 2v2 battle. Doesn't give me hope that they learned how to make the game not run like poo poo.

It'll likely perform like Hyrule Warriors on regular 3DSes

For the last time, the Fighting-type Eevee evolution will be named Takemeon. This isn't hard, people.

I've never seen someone misspell Champeon so badly. Did you have a stroke? Are you ok over there?

They uh, just sort of run around Unova causing bad weather.

Then they can look into a mirror and turn into hideous animalish-forms!



Also they're obnoxious because one of them is the only pure Flying type in the series and that bothers the gently caress out of me.

They are one of Unova's legendary trios. Their typings are Flying, Flying/Ground and Flying/Electric, respectively.

They also have alternate forms, in which they become a harpy, a tiger and a qiling.

This might just be fun after all.
Uuuugh I'm probably just gonna break down and get both games.

Both werewolves are good but Daywolf is better and I want it. I like that one is a full wolf werewolf and one is more anthropomorphic werewolf. Now we just need a third Eclipse version that is a wolfman werewolf and we'll have the full spectrum of werewolves.

Rugby monkey and Librarian Guru look like fun.

YESSSSS for full dressup mode and no hats!

So much good stuff in this, but I really want to see starter evos. Come on, we've got what, seven weeks left until release? Please show me if I need to swear off Good Kitty Litten because it turns into the dumb wrasslecat.

Edit: Also, I LOVE that Pikachu's signature Z-move is you literally throwing him into battle. And that Eevee gets some love with a cool Z-move.

Considering it can't use a Focus Sash, Eevee is basically hoping you do something that gives it two whole turns to live. Technically MAYBE 1, since 458 speed is hard to outspeed without a Sash, but its' defenses are kind of hot garbage, meaning it's gonna get KO'd pretty easily and all it takes is some priority or power.
