Pokémon (Not-So) Griefing Thread - Scarlet and Violet Released with 10 Million Copies in First 3 Days in Buggy States

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
But there appears to be some kind of beta Celebi here that I haven’t seen elsewhere
Lol Celebi looks like a smug Teletubby, good find. But that's more based off the sprite for sure. Celebi's GSC sprite is just so odd to the point most of us thought the pinpoint mouth was a nose. So much so that the Crystal sprite's mouth has moved down a bit more to avoid that.

Now I'm going to be hearing Celebi as vinesauce's tinky winky voice for the next couple of weeks
This was interesting to me because it was my first time seeing a spread of all the new Johto Pokémon back in 2000.
I love how they seemed to spread the new ones out prior to gen 2's release, I know that it was an unintended wait due to G/S's delay and probably meant as a tie in with how soon they showed some of those pokemon, but I really think it helped build intrigue as to what the next games were going to be like
 
People are getting mad at GF for not making PLA fully open world despite them never promising us one. I hate to sound like a GF simp but this time the fans are the ones at fault hyping it up to be something it never was.

Also the BBND crusaders are still going. I want all the Pokemon back too but it’s clear we won’t and they’re still desperate to spam tweets and be even more obnoxious than the apologists,

I mean to be fair the editing for the trailer did make it pretty vague about the structure of the game, I understand editing can be a bitch and marketing is going market a game anyway way you can but I can understand how someone would be confused by the initial trailer

I haven't heard anything pro or anti dex since the sinnoh games dropped trailers, personally I just think they should just make a stadium 3 and have that be a live service game compatible with home that can be the hub of the meta and possibly free up mainline to balance more shit to not be worried about handling that along with casual multiplayer and single player. but since TPC hates money I don't think that will happen.

I’ve been going through Hurricane Dorian damaged belongings this week. Found this magazine 100% intact. This was interesting to me because it was my first time seeing a spread of all the new Johto Pokémon back in 2000.

It’s close to our Celebi, but different.
Celebi looks like a baby with a birth defect.

Pokemon community is just horseshit in general. They either don't take themselves seriously, too seriously, or are too young/immature to understand the inner workings of the company on a fundamental level.

Its because the pokemon community is way too large that it's full of dozens of sub communities that all want different things. Again if any other company released non-sports games annually at the rate pokemon does it would have burn out, but because of the community's size and scale it never really happens. It's why they should just have the annual releases cater to different aspects/developers take the reigns (one game be a smogon fags wet dream, another be a game in the style of Arceus, another more simpler game in the style of BDSP), that way burn out with working only with pokemon can be mitigated and each game can be fresh while serving a different purpose to the last release.
Talk about obsessed. I’m starting to wonder how many of these people are shit posters and trolls.
probably abit of column a and abit of column b. I don't think shitposters are a problem, its the people who try to make the same video 20 times over, if your going to make a vid on a topic, have something new to say from your already existing content instead of making it again and again just for youtube money/efame
 
Is this the dude that owns Serebii? Bruh, even he bought into the intentional design horseshit over there at Nintendo.


The Switch isn't a beast
The switch has at least 10X the power of the 3DS. It is equivalent to a mid tier PC for it's size, this is also horseshit. The switch could run a significantly more powerful engine with less filters, better (and less hardware consuming) PHysX effects, larger and more Pokemon-esque worlds, yada yada. The switch has the power to change this RPG series mechanically. Why is it just less of a Pokemon game?

Yes this is the guy that owns Serebii, why else would he have a checkmark?

Hang on. A lot of people thought it was a nose?
 
GameBoy screens were small, dude. Your little brains had to fill things in. Imagine my shock when the fourth movie came out that Celebi actually didn't have a black nose.
When you squint, you can tell that it's a nose. Maybe I just had better eyesight, I don't know.🤷‍♂️
 
Possibly, but I was also the dummy who thought Smeargle was a goat and not actually a beagle. I just saw things wrong, I suppose.
Dude, what average person would look at Smeargle and think it's a beagle? First time I laid eyes on it, I thought it was some kind of monkey.

These designs, man.
 
For reference, here's picks of Smeargle, Snoopy (another cartoon beagle) and an actual beagle.

for the record, I always just saw smeargle as smeargle, never really clicked what he was meant to be other than a vaguely animalistic artist. But I think adding in Snoopy helps. Between the two. You can see the tail tip, the ears, the eye markings, the head shape, feet shape, and mouth placement.

This might seem arbitrary, but snoopy was first introduced to Japan in 1968, and Ken Sugimori was born in 1966. There's a hotel dedicated to snoopy in Japan, and the only satellite snoopy museum is the one in Tokyo. It's absolutely possible snoopy is an influence on Smeargle.

When I was a kid, I thought Smeargle was a sock monkey or something. I was the same way, my brain didn't recognize it as a dog.
