My favourite pokemon is Sunkern who is factually the worst one and I don't give a gently caress, he's great

I just started watching Journeys and when I realised Pikachu evolved because he loved Kangaskhan so much I got emotional. I still kinda think the VA quality dents the cartoon a bit. The acting is not super. I'd change the language and read subs but for some reason Netflix doesn't offer Japanese as an option. e: what a bad snipe. My copy hasn't arrived yet. Amazon are being slow. I am going nuts.

oh my god there are so many pokemon in the first couple of areas. I'm dazzled. diglettless goons, I caught one and I'm not gonna use it so if you're really hurting you can have mine So far, noticing some occasional slowdown. One in a while a fixed camera angle will clip through the ground for a second. Fading in and out of cutscenes is oddly hesitant. The actual battling and catching is smooth and fast and fun.

I went with fuecoco and it was entirely because of his animations. He kept running up to me all and I could not resist him.

Maybe he actually likes pokemon. I thought the song was cute. This radar is lying to me about Bounsweet dammit.

Mr. Funktastic posted:So are the bugs and glitches really as bad and prevalent as advertised? If so I may hold off on picking up SV until they get some patches in to fix it and improve the performance. You will see slowdown, you'll see a lack of antialiasing, you'll see weird decisions about dropped frames in crowded scenes. It's not like, heaving with bugs, it's not unplayable, but that's going to be a matter of luck. As others have said, the reason it's particularly annoying is that the game itself is *very good*. It's the Pokemon game I've wanted to play for ages (though I would want more fashion). It's just that it only mostly works.

Nearly wiped to a wild Mankey! I can't believe he's going to get so cross he'll die. Relatable. My only issue outside of technical ones is that I feel a bit overwhelmed. So many places! Pokemon! Items lying around! If they'd left in the ability to capture without a battle this would be my perfect game.

BARONS CYBER SKULL posted:The game is $60 USD and from a company that makes hundreds of millions in net profit. It should probably run correctly on set hardware with only one platform SKU to make the game for. Oh it's unacceptable yeah. But it's not unplayable and people are just sharing their experiences so other people can make purchasing decisions. Like this is not okay, that it's like this. But we all fuckin bought it anyway.

I like how nearby Pokemon will like, pause and watch the battle. I was fighting a trainer and this nearby Growlithe got super involved, he would bark when moves happened and hop about as if he was excited to watch. Then he ran up afterwards and tried to fight me and Nora the electric rabbit destroyed him, but still, it was cute. e: omg she's fallen asleep while I was typing and she's got her little paws over her eyes

Augh I can't commit to a direction, it feels like there's always somewhere else to go. This is the best problem. I never usually dally around like this in Pokemon. e: oh wow there's a little feature where it advises you whether to learn a move or not HopperUK fucked around with this message at 15:56 on Nov 19, 2022 |

I would really love them to patch in a little sparkle effect and sound for shinies. I don't know what the new pokemons' shinies look like and it makes me worry I'm missing them.

Larryb posted:No? I just can't remember its name and wanted some Pokemon recommendations Greavard is its name I think. Don't know where it is, sorry. Lechonk's evo has a big male-female difference and I always enjoy that, it is still a piggy. Just caught Tandemaus after seeing them both skipping through the grass and I am in love. And I think the game uses sensible pronouns as in 'They were both sent to your boxes!' so I wonder if it'll do that for Falinks in future.

Macaluso posted:Wait there's really no indication that a Pokémon is shiny this time beyond its color? They didn't include the sparkle explosion this time?? If you're using the autobattle system where your pokemon runs around and kills things, it will refuse to attack a shiny. That's your only other hint.

Even though I'm probably gonna pass on this game for a few months, I still wanna see the new dogs Serebii will be collecting it asap I should think. Listen I took a picture of the mice I don't know what more you want I wanna see pics of all the shinies.

Took a few goes but I am content with my look. If they ever sell clothing options as DLC they will pick my pocket so easily. It just occurred to me that naming my Tandemaus 'Nadja&Laszlo' is gonna seem odd if they spawn children.

I love Maschiff. I know a red mastiff and they always look so tragic. Exactly like they're about to say 'please take me seriously right now ' And the one I know is huge, and also terrified of everything, so will try to get in your lap. I love her. My mice evolved and now there are four of them. I kinda wish it would keep going TBH. I feel so excited playing this, it's just - tech issues aside (and I've been lucky that way), it's so *fun*. It's so *Pokemon*. I feel like I'm on an adventure. I wanted a stronger water type so I headed for water and there they were. This is almost exactly what I wanted. I'm not even minding having to fight to capture any more since the mice got Thunder Wave and Super Fang.

You can remember fairy by thinking about fiction. They're weak to steel because fairies can't stand cold iron and they're weak to poison like Tinkerbell drinking the poison in Peter Pan. I know they're strong against dragon but I'm sure there's more about them I'm forgetting

Flopsy posted:Finding a charcadet is an absolute motherfucker in this game. For presumably being everywhere they're extremely hard to find. Kinda had to give up my dreams of using a ceruledge because the one I caught has a modest nature. She's too well suited (heh) to being an armarouge. One just ambled up to me in the starting area just after Los Platos. Meanwhile can I find a bounsweet? I cannot. I've got a Steenee I'm just gonna breed it instead.

mycatscrimes posted:Personally I prefer it without voice acting. Adding voice acting just means i'll play the game with the sound on a lot less. I get that I'm the weird one for finding it intrusive though, games have long since moved past my personal preferences on that front. I really dislike Disco Elysium's voice acting but I realise I'm the only person in the world.

I dunno I was playing SwSh last week and this game feels way swifter than that. I suppose it didn't occur to me to compare it with Arceus cuz I did so little battling in Arceus. Gonna evolve my primeape, gonna get him so mad he dies. Gonna call him Robin.

Lux Animus posted:Found a Red-flower Floetta (Fairy type that holds a flower) with Tera type Grass, which I thought was really cool because its Ability makes all Grass allies (intended for doubles battles, obviously) immune to status effects, which now include itself while it's Terastylized. Neat! I got a dragon-Tera wattrel and I don't know if it'll ever be useful but it looks neat. Found the same Floette! I wonder how randomised the overworld tera spawns are or if they have a chance to appear in the same spots for everyone.

Hrist posted:Today a Scyther with a tera diamond on its head wiped my entire team. (it was 5+ higher than 5 of them and spammed a boosted double hit move tbf.) I still have no idea what type that was supposed to be. But that's the first time I've lost a pokemon battle outside of online since RBY. Game is pretty good. If it looked like a huge diamond it was probably Normal type.

Well that Dark team didn't know what hit them. I have looked up a guide just on what order to do the main stuff in. I won't follow it to the letter but it'll help me keep from forgetting anything.
