Your Computer posted:speaking of chungus i miss first gen when pokemon were chunkier, i always preferred those designs to the sleeker modern ones Man that water color style shading with shadows and empty white spots was really rad, why'd they get rid of that in favor of generic anime cartoon shadows? I remember it sticking around until gen 2 and imo is a very big part of the flavor for the original games

How can you choose a starter before seeing how lovely their final form may be. The fire bunny for example, is going to be a giant muscle freak probably

Gronkykong, where his final form has him playing for the Patriots and infuriating all the other pokemon. I'll probably pick fire, like I have in every other single Pokemon game I've ever played

I still need to beat Let's Go before I can think about Sword or Shield but it looks nice so far. I usually go with the water starter and will probably stick to that here.

I didn't see the direct, is this Pokemon going to be a real game, unlike Let's Go (get our newborn baby his first videogame)?

man nurse posted:I hope the new Poke keeps the encounter system of Let's Go, meaning like, the pokes actually appear on the gameplay field and you can chose to engage them or run around them. That's a fantastic change imo. I'm glad this garbage system did not come forward, and that they're scrapping the lovely "no wild battles, just catch-or-run" as well. The sooner we can all forget LG:P/E existed the better.

I still want a beginning of game option to turn down the starter pokemon, not be a pokemon trainer and just explore the world and then get a job doing pokemon hairstyles in the city or something.

Andrast posted:Do you love zubats or something buh-buh-but repels! e- real talk I think the best of both worlds would be to eliminate random encounters but keep the wild battles. I LOVED the party training mechanic in Let's Go and will be really sore if that's left out of Sword/Shield. I know there are things like EXP Share and other but I really enjoyed keeping a full team trained up without having to minmax encounters and other stupid bullshit (ps. if that's a normal mechanic in the last several games then I've just missed out, I've been out of Pkmn for several gens now) Omnikin fucked around with this message at 17:01 on Feb 27, 2019 |

watching the trailer again i do think it's pretty hilarious how they spend a couple of seconds of the trailer showing a random battle just as a sort of  it's regular old pokemon to all the people who were disappointed in let's go

That's what happened with Chespin and why I ultimately went with the frog instead. The grass starter this time is bad from the beginning though so at least I just have to pick between two

Re: zubats 1. They may not be in the Galar region 2. They could just take the random encounter tables not so obnoxious and less biased towards over particular Pokemon in a given region

Mahoning posted:Yeah, it's mostly combat. There's words and items and stuff in the battle menu that I don't even know what they mean. Such as what? It'd be weird to explain the whole battle system to you if it isn't warranted. And you might have to channel your lost childhood and resort to good old experimentation. The game does have a little tutorial after the first actual dungeon which tries to explain some of the less intuitive things. Maybe try asking in the Final Fantasy thread too. so you don't get lost in Pokemon chat.

Andrast posted:1. They will be (or some equivalent I guess) It’s probably to keep the framerate up, while Game Freak could get away with lousy performance on the 3ds, it’s going to raise eyebrows if Pokemon runs worse on the Switch than Xenoblade Chronicles.
