wot's HMs?

they are special moves that serve as keys on the world map outside of battle while also being battle moves. basically you get them for beating bosses and they let you break rocks in your path or travel on water or whatever.

people don't like them because they take up space in your pokemon's move list.

What is Nintendo doing with the 3DS now that the Switch exists? Will the 3DS be phased out and Nintendo will have just one system for everything?

Only time will tell. Maybe they plan to fill some of the 3DS market with tablet and phone games. :(

thats the theory i heard that makes the most sense. more handheld series on phone (FE/Animal Crossing/NSMB are all upcoming) probably means they aren't going to make other small budget handheld tier games out of them. the upside is that they'll make larger games for the console out of those licenses to draw the mobile crowd to switch maybe

It's a 20-year-old system and they need to overhaul it instead of building on it.

I think it's cool that they're still making the same game but more and more refined

The game runs perfectly fine doing all these cinematic angles during battle and stuff and then a third rock ruff enters the battle and it seriously drops to like single digit framerate with nothing going on, just picking moves. It's insane

partly that's because it turns on the gyro for no reason which makes everything all herky jerky even at the best of times, but also the game runs badly

If they made a new one it would probably be a f2p phone game based on scanning QR codes to make monsters.

Hell, I'd play that.

Not for Porygon. Even though it's been almost two decades the wounds from taking the fall for what Pikachu did and the subsequent government inquires have never truly healed the rift between them.
