Diet Poison posted:What, that was not my experience at all. I am positive I selected modern mode when I restarted my game but I don't think it actually put me into modern mode; my pokemon selection in Kanto was still probably 90% Kanto mons. Unless you're talking about rematching them after doing Johto? I'm still halfway through Johto; I keep getting distracted and changing my team. No, I'm definitely talking about the Kanto E4. I found that modern mode had basically no old mons on the first few routes so I think you just played in Classic instead or something. As for the other person asking about Latias, no idea.

Starter Pokemon (or at least from Gen 4 and beyond) are usually based on cute animals that would show up in a viral youtube video. Going by this metric would this mean that we'll get a starter Pokemon based on a crab?

I really want them to do a starter trio where fire becomes fire-water, grass becomes grass-fire, and water becomes water-grass. or whatever. you know what I mean. the same trio but reverse ways also.

Been using Appletun a bit more and it's a shame because three 4x resistances is a pretty sweet deal (Water, Grass, Electric) and it's coupled with a Ground resistance... but then it's weird weakness of Bug/Flying/Poison/Fairy along with the 4x ice weakness just kinda makes it a very awkward Pokemon. It also makes it difficult to capitalize on its resistances since chances are anything that runs Water is gonna be using Ice, Ground resistance doesn't help much when it's neutral to Rock/Fighting/Fire, and it isn't immune to status so anything it could wall like Quagsire could just spew Toxic at it.

Treecko posted:I miss the battle factory Seriously the Dlc looks like it’s going to be the same “we added a few more Pokémon you already own to the dex sitting in a field.” that SwSh had and that really doesn’t interest me. I have literal boxs of Mewtwos and Kanto birds i couldn’t care less about paying money to catch yet more of them. A ton of people would gladly shell out $15 for an actual postgame. You’ve made it easier than ever to make our in-game team viable in serious fights with purchasable bottle caps, uncapping vitamins, egg move moving, and ability capsules/patches. Let us actually use them. Give me a $15~ battle frontier with a Tower Factory Black Tower/White Treehollow style roguelite. And two or three other things and I’ll be set

Remember when ORAS dropped and those rear end in a top hat developers just put a tiny model of the Battle Tower in. I do and I'm still kind of upset. Violet is fun but I want to do post-game things in a game with no post-game

I guess the devs aren't interested in pouring time and effort into creating assets that only a fraction of the fanbase will even see and not a majority of it.

I think part 2 of the DLC will have endless postgame battle poo poo for roughly that reason—you spent the time and money to get there, so it’s worth the dev time and money to make it

S/V having absolutely no postgame is the biggest sin against it. I can't think of any other Pokemon game where I finished up the story and was just done, well, since original Blue and Gold. I guess there was the 4 legendary pokemon behind vaults but you can power that out pretty quick with a guide (or spend a thousand years looking for that one spike you missed lol). Like, they put in that little tournament thing and then populated it with what, 6 opponents? Unforgivably lazy when they could have added all the gym leaders and the Team Star leaders at minimum. Gimme the option of "everybody is at Lv50" rules and I coulda got a lot of mileage out of that. I'd even prefer it to having to beat 50 trainers in a row.. I completely forgot I'd been trying to do Battle Subway til just now. Slamming up against that wall over and over isn't very fun.

The Battle facilitys used to suck because breeding and EV training was not intuitive Now it's so accessible it doesn't make sense to NOT have one That's a good thing BTW, I spent more time learning how stats worked in gen4 than I actually played the game Online battles kinda of scratch the itch but I need to re-ev my Tyranitar

I also suspect postgame is the final consideration and given the lack of polish it probably had to be cut as scope was reduced. it might not make player sense but it makes massive amounts of game-dev sense
