If you can't love pokemon at it's Vanillite, you don't deserve it at it's Alcremie. Oxyclean fucked around with this message at 17:42 on Jul 8, 2019 |

Happy Noodle Boy posted:Shuckle is like a turtle fungus on a coral shell? Anyways it’s not food and is actually the best pokemon ever made. It ferments berries into its shell into 'berry juice'. Sorry but it has food based gimmick, it has to go.

Yeah, gently caress that. I've never interacted with the online portion of any pokemon game and I'm not about to start now. I've never even done any "raid" in a game before for fucks sake

Shuckle eats the berries to make powerful toxins shuckle is not a berry tree or whatever. Please don’t libel my good and real friend Shuckle or he will end you.

I thought Shuckle was supposed to be a sentient slime mold living in a rock for protection? It's a fun and novel idea for a pokemon at least.

I agree that Shuckle is not a food pokemon, but disagree in that food pokemon are good The only bad pokemon are Lucario and Lopunny, so sayeth the Lord

quote:Flying-type moves used by Gigantamax Corviknight will change to G-Max Wind Rage. G-Max Wind Rage deals damage to an opponent, but that’s not all—it will also remove any effects of moves like Reflect, Light Screen, Spikes, and Electric Terrain that the opponents may have! Gigantamax lasts 3 turns lol

quote:Water-type moves used by Gigantamax Drednaw will change to G-Max Stonesurge. G-Max Stonesurge doesn’t just deal damage to an opponent—it will scatter sharp rocks around the opponent and cause Pokémon entering the battlefield to take damage! Sssssssssstealth rockkkkkkkkkk I know someone will say "stealth rock is fine in doubles and that's the format game freak cares about" but if game freak cares about doubles more than singles why is 99% of the story single battles! Why did they abandon the Colosseum doubles-only format after introducing more abilities and moves that only matter in doubles! Also game-exclusive gym leaders is super hosed up

the new mons are very very good, dynamaxing still corny and gigantamaxing, eh, I'll have to see more to have a real opinion on it besides "eh." the graphics only look like a slight improvement from US/UM (which I've said look very good, to be clear, just idk if it's enough of an improvement for me to buy that they didn't have the resources to do all Pokemons). Nessa and Bea and Allister are cool e: also "gigantamaxing" is such a stupid name. they should have taken a few more pitches on that

Raiding sounds kind of fun though? I’m not sure how the connecting with other people online will work, but I wouldn’t mind being a part of a goon group that cruises for Gigantamax mons.

I'm hopeful that they'll knock this aspect of it out of the park. they usually have a couple home run ideas per generation and hopefully the raiding will be one of them

Remember, the secret to pokemon is love, pour your friendship into your pokemon and bond with it to make it truly strong! And also throw it away after 30 levels for a replacement from the same species that has the gigantamax flag enabled. Ometeotl posted:We can't have the whole National Dex because of all the new models we have to make for this game. Also good luck seeing these new models for yourself, assholes. Hey they also had to make all the new models for the dynamax pokemon! (apparently they're distinct models that look the same but are bigger rather than just rendering the old ones at 500% size, because gamefreak)

I'm curious how more than one person can catch the Raid pokemon. If raiding turns into literal World of Warcraft raiding where you have to farm regularly with only 1 person getting the gear/pokemon at a time, I'm gonna fuckin' die laughing.

But what's more, is once you get that one with the flag enabled, you'll chain breed it for many generations and iterations until it has the right nature, IVs and egg moves. Having a big incentive/reward for Max Raid Battles, particularly for pokemon you can otherwise obtain more easily isn't bad from a game design perspective, it's A) still funny in regards to a particular ethos of pokemon as we just outlined and b) totally dependent on how rare they are, and if you can raid battle with people remotely.

I can't remember if they said anything about online, but so far, you don't need a paid Nintendo Online account for SwoShi, correct?

Watch the gigantamaxing flag not being inherited through breeding, resulting in having to raid even more. Or just do like smart battlers do and save edit.
