Second region was nice but there's a big difference between the code is almost the exact same so just stick it in like it was in Gen 2 amd now where you'd have to reprogram it between Gens. Also it let them make Johto a lot smaller than Johto deserved.

I wonder if there will still be secret moves that can only be learned at the Move Deleter/Relearner?

There was this one time way back in OG Silver that after hours of chasing I finally caught Entei, but since my Box was full it was automatically released. :negative:

I miss a lot of the fun stuff in Gen II like how at night you could run into sleeping Pokemon in headbutt trees, or the weird ways they played with time so some trainers only fought you at night or whatever. It was neat.

Ruby/Sapphire not having a day/night cycle still stands out as one of the big reasons I just kinda didn't like it as much.

Funny how we have moves named after Leeches but no actual Leech Pokemon. We also need a llama and a porcupine (or does Chesnaught count as one? I always thought he was a weird armadillo). Ooh, and a vinegaroon. I was also gonna say axolotl but Mudkip is axolotl-adjacent.

Seasons are good, but need better implementation. Having seasons change every 24 hours would be an improvement over the previous version for example. Also, actual weather effects tied to the season in certain areas

Seasons were bad because they blocked off content for months at a time but day/night cycles are great and atmospheric.

EDIT: set the next Pokemon game in the Grand Line so you can just go to different islands to change the seasons

Multiple pokemon have control of time, they should put in seasons and day/night and then also let us change them on a whim like Zelda.

They should have cut 1/3 of these out, they're either redundant or actively bad features. Now, if I could keep 5...

Am I missing something with this Mewtwo thing? Is it a special Mewtwo? It doesn't appear to be shiny and nothing seems to be advertising it as having a unique move or anything.

Because like... you can just catch Mewtwo in the game

Yeah but now you can have 2 or get one earlier than the end of the game.

Kid me would've been happy to get a second Mewtwo just to have one.

Didn't Sun/Moon let you go to the "other world" where the day/night was flipped? If they give you an option to alter the time with game mechanics it seems like a reasonable way to have the mechanic without it being obstructive?

Honestly I remember weather conditions being more annoying since you were then relying on RNG.

I think night and day should be more like current JRPGs, tho. Moves normally in towns and stuff, but whenever you are in the wild, it becomes 1 minute = 1 hour, and you can freely change the time of day. And then seasons change every in-game week or so.
