for the longest I can remember, I've always gone either Grass or Fire with my starter on the first run I think I might go with Quaxly? or Sprigatito. both are the coolest looking to me and it appears their function in the game is also pretty solid all around too

There was some discussion at the end of the last thread about the lack of Battle Tower and the effects on the post game- but isn't there some sort of randomized school tournament thing? That sounds like it'd be as good or better than the really half assed Battle Towers we've been getting lately. Is it just not that good somehow? I'm fine with the game being over when it's over, but it feels bad when there are cool post-game Pokemon but nothing to do with them!

That sounds like it'd be as good or better than the really half assed Battle Towers we've been getting lately. Is it just not that good somehow? Sounds like it's similar to the champion cup rematches in gen VIII or the champion challenges in Gen VII but those are still a step or 2 below the competitive level endgame content that the Battle Tower (and previously the Battle Frontier as a whole) provides. So for people wanting content at that level, looks like there isn't a whole lot there for them.

Well, it's a bunch of fun RPGs and also the biggest financially successful franchise of all time. But you're not here for the cool stats, you're here to understand why this franchise is still going after all these years, and why the weed cat is wearing a sparkly hat:

My wife's car is in the shop so she's taking my car to work tomorrow so I won't be able to pick up my copy of the game until tomorrow evening. Tomorrow is going to be a long day

A nice confirmation - when you send your pokémon out into auto-battle mode, they will outright refuse to attack shinies.

Haven’t played a new Pokémon since Sun and Moon put a bad taste in my mouth. Looking forward to smoke pouring out of my Switch as it struggles to hit 20 FPS when I throw a Pokeball.

So, what exactly are the clothing options? Are the four uniform choices all we have?

How's the battle speed? I never really finished Shield because I just got sick of the battle system. But the new critters in SV do look good.

I'm contemplating whether the battles in SV are different/faster enough to merit a playthrough, or whether I'm just done with the Pokemon franchise forever I guess.

No, the battle system hasn’t changed much. Maybe you’d be interested in Legends: Arceus though? Catching is the main focus in that game and what little battling there is is pretty quick

Hogama posted:You can accessorize, but your four seasonal uniforms are all you get for shirts/shorts, so you can't drastically change your base apparel. It is so unreal to me that after all of the customization and focus of really being your own trainer in the past howevermany games they pulled this one back. I can't imagine it's engine limitations. I realize it's fluff but anything that lets me feel like the game is my own personal Pokemon adventure helps.

went into target today to try and buy the double pack (for the little statue bonus, please understand), and for some reason the employees in the electronics section weren't willing to break street date when bribed with a small snickers bar alas

I'm on the fence right now, leaning towards not buying it. I got Sonic and God of War, and there's gonna be some wacky sales in a couple days so I could get AI Somnium Files 2, Elden Ring and like finally DQ11 for the same price as pokemon...

This series is like 2 incremental improvements and a system upgrade away from being the game I imagined in my head 30 years ago (it will be 30 years by the time this happens)

Hope the day 1 patch addresses some of the performance issues being shared online. Unless those are people playing on emulators and not saying so, which wouldn't be the first time it happened but it's not like Pokemon games are exercises in optimization that squeeze every drop out of the system. They're not Monolith Soft after all.
