you know, playing USUM, you forget, just how god awful the learnsets are in pre-gen V games feraligatr, the physical water type, only learns aqua tail well after the elite four. you can move-tutor it on there, but only from the battle frontier in the postgame. for 40BP. (yes you can also just stick waterfall on there, but again, that's not until the eighth gym, what the gently caress) e: hopeandjoy posted:https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/c055b5/gamefreak_nintendo_and_the_conflicts_most_fans/ Blaziken386 fucked around with this message at 22:28 on Jun 13, 2019 |

this is stupid and they're stupid for saying this. especially if they plan to continue the Let's Go line, where (presumably) they'd get around to all the Pokemon anyway. otherwise they should just say "these are the Pokemon who will never appear on switch" and get it over with

I don't think it's tension in the strained-relationship sense, like they're not making this decision to screw Nintendo or use it as leverage or whatever. it seems more along the lines that Game Freak doesn't want their existence solely reliant upon the one franchise that Nintendo retains control over, which is understandable on a business and creative level

That Reddit post gets several fundamental things about the relationship between the various companies that contribute to the Pokemon franchise wrong. The fact that they keep referring to things that Nintendo doesn't have to rely on Game Freak for is a huge signifier; TCPi is the one that explores the development of other titles, and Nintendo barely plays a role whatsoever. Hell, Nintendo had to come up and said that not only do they not develop Pokemon Go, they actually don't make much money from it at all. That reddit post is all ill informed speculation and rumormongering with the mask of trying to appear like they have sources, but it's all poorly informed.

quote:With Pokémon Go’s popularity, Nintendo can see the profitable future without being beholden to GFs artistic decisions, which is also why they’re now launching tons of Pokémon apps (Masters, Quest, Sleep). GF feels like they’re being pushed out, and are hoping they can launch another franchise that Nintendo doesn’t have a stake in. This is the most ridiculous part of that reddit BS. Nintendo famously lost a bunch of stock value because they came out during Pokemon Go's original heyday to say "We do not see as much profit from Go". The reddit post starts by claiming that Nintendo likes the games because they see money from game sales and consoles and further Non-pokemon game sales but then at the end they're claiming that Nintendo wants all the apps made and care less about the games? Also those pokemon game profits cited are ludicrous. They sell 10+ million a year.

Vandar posted:Gen I Bellsprout legit has a better learnset than Gen I Tangela. that's probably why its moveset sucks and its learns are so late, because you catch it and it can only ever have learned four moves to that point. and then you gain a couple levels and you get the rest. everything else is single-use TMs

The thing to remember about Gen 1 levelup movepools is that because breeding wasn't a thing yet, there was no reason to have them learn moves at levels below the range you catch them at. That's why Tangela doesn't learn anything beyond its starting moves until level 29 - the lowest level you can catch it at is the mid-20's.

Someone taking some actual info and spinning it out of context for the narrative they want. Already saw a different big effort post doing circles citing that it'd be 14 gigs to include all pokemon, when those numbers don't add up at all given the last few games very public file sizes.
