They add an item that makes you immune to stealth rocks the same gen they remove articuno and moltres. What a cruel joke.

Yea I looked at Reddit and hilariously that place is full of nothing but not just Dexit meltdowns but weird, like, over dramatic protest art and other insane things, plus just classic poo poo that didn't happen like 'I'm a third grade teacher and one child was in tears over furret not being in SwSh so don't tell me it's just old people!!!!'

qnqnx posted:Get this, they are both mechanics and features in need of improvement. Yeah trade evolutions just don't make sense conceptually. You trade something as an exchange, doing a trade just to trade back just for evolution kind of flies in the face of it. You're also putting a lot of faith in the other person actually sending it back, which I remember was the cause of a lot of playground fights and ultimately why the game got banned at my school. That said, I wouldn't mind it so much if you could just flag a pokemon as a 'trade back' so you could put up something like a Kadabra and have it automatically trade back to you after the initial trade evolution is complete.

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Also people were talking about mons having silly heights earlier- friendly reminder that charizard is 5'7" and blastoise is 5'3" I choose to give as much credence to Pokédex figures as I do it’s claims that Grimer come from X-rays from the moon or the fossil freaks being natural creatures. Charizard and Blastoise are at least eight feet tall and nobody can tell me otherwise.

Framboise posted:Did anyone else have parents who bought into the whole Satanic Panic rush that Pokemon had, by the way? Mine sure did. I wasn't allowed to have any psychic or ghost pokemon. (That they knew of at least, because even kid me knew that was loving stupid.) We somehow dodged the pokemon panic, think my dad had become slightly more human by then. We were, however, forbidden from watching Smurfs or CareBears/Rainbow Brite. Also weren't allowed to think about Dungeons & Dragons. I think Smurfs were maybe communist and honestly looking back I have to assume CareBears was banned based on some weird homophobic concern. Oh yeah and Simpsons and King of the Hill were both banned too, so I only watched them at moms. I think those were banned on base of being too secular/liberal. Felt arbitrary even at the time. mutata posted:Man, I'm so out of touch, whenever y'all get into the weeds of battles I instantly get lost. Gotta look up a guide for newbs or something. So many hidden stats... You can beat the original game using just your starter and four different water type attacks. There hasn't been a game since any more challenging than that. I would bet every pokemon game could be beaten using only the first pokemon you get, using basically just the first attacking move you're given. The pokemon you're using, the moves it has, the item it holds, and the stats it has only ever gain relevance in PvP, and even then, only in specific PvP circles. You literally have to go out of your way to make the games complicated. Khanstant fucked around with this message at 21:54 on Nov 8, 2019 |

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Also people were talking about mons having silly heights earlier- friendly reminder that charizard is 5'7" and blastoise is 5'3" All pokemon heights are relative to a 10 year old boy. If they're taller than 4 feet tall they're huge, if they're around 4 feet they're big, and then everything else is pet sized.

I just tried doing that thing I do every new gen and build a final team of 6 from the revealed new Pokemon up to that point and with this gen I just can't, there's too many I want to use and I absolutely will be switching mons in and out of my party constantly. This is why people keep buying Pokemon games btw - not to buy it full price, catch literally just Ekans, and retire contentedly til you can catch Ekans once more in the next gen.

autumnal oddium posted:dugtrio at least has the mystery going for it. and magnemite has an insanely good aesthetic. the klink line...... What a bizarre take. I can understand not liking magnetite and klink lines, but if you like one and hate the other, seems just like traditionalism. Cute, floating, chunks of metal tech stuff. If seeing impossible gear arrangement bothers you on magic creatures, that's a lol Framboise posted:I got little use out of the GTS because even for a lot of simple things, people were making pretty ridiculous demands for trades. No, I'm not gonna give you a level 80 rare Pokemon for your breeding chaff. Just gimme the other starters I don't have! The trick to GTS was to put up those ridiculous requests yourself. I was constantly surprised at how much rare or cool poo poo I got for posting up mediocre egg rejects, being in a beast ball is dope, but a beast ball version of route 1 trash is still not worth past game exclusives imo. Still, it works. Khanstant fucked around with this message at 22:00 on Nov 8, 2019 |
