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

gen 6 and the onwards are dog shit and almost all of the mons are slop
Gen 6 had a lot of problems, but it’s mom designs are not one of them. The only truly weak ones I can think of were the Barbacle and Diggersby lines. Even Gen 7 has a bunch of great designs, even if it is kept above water by Megas and Ultra Beasts.

I kinda sort of agree, but at the end of the day 3D pokemon main line games were the nail in the coffin for the series. you also have to admit that the game literally spawned the tranny mascot pokemon sylveon or whatever it's called or something.

Also fairy types are fucking gay as hell and kinda ruin the point of dragon type also now ghost dark is meaningless so spirttomb and sabeleye can be put in the bin. also, all the fairy type designs are lazy and boring. megas and ultra beasts are honestly fucking gay as hell and belong in a shit game like yu gi oh or that carbon copy wanna be pokemon game digimon.
 
I tried making Lumineon work in SM meta. This thing is just way too mediocre, it should have at least gotten a Flying typing so that it would have some sort of niche. Water/Flying mon are rather rare.
I enjoyed using it as a support pokemon in Scarlet/Violet VGC doubles, for that regulation where legendaries weren't allowed. It's niche being that it's the only Tailwind setter with Storm Drain. Gave it Soak, which was very fun for setting up surprise kills, but awkward to use since it doesn't work on Tera'd targets. Encore as well.

Well, at least your opinions are consistently dogshit. Fairy is, both thematically and mechanically, damn near perfect. Remember, it exists as a balance to how out of hand Dragon and Dark got by the end of Gen 5. You know, the exact reason why Dark and Steel themselves were introduced. Ghost/Dark having no weaknesses was retarded mechanically, and was never actually utilized thematically. If having a single 2x weakness is enough to ruin a Pokemon, then that Pokemon wasn't exactly that great to begin with.

Megas and Ultra Beasts were fucking great. They were each a discrete addition to refresh concepts that were at risk of becoming stale: Megas for the battle system and Ultra Beasts for Legendary Pokemon. I struggle to find a visual design for either that is any worse than "pretty good".* They both achieve their intended goals of over-the-top redesigns of existing Pokemon for the former, and really out there original designs for the latter.

Digimon trying to be Pokemon was as untrue in 1999 as it is today. Even the Cyber Sleuth games, which come closest to the Pokemon formula, still take more from their Tamagotchi-like origins than Pokemon.

*Mega Charizard Y and the Mega Latis are really the only "weak" Megas, and that's due to how fun the entire concept really is. The Naganadel line are the weakest Ultra Beast designs, since there really isn't any actually theming to make them more interesting.

Politely disagree, because binacle and barbaracle have a chaotic G1 energy.

Bro I haven't played a new Pokemon game in like ten fuckin' years. The idea of a Pokemon MMO sounds awful because: 1) MMO's in general are awful, 2) Playing Pokemon with other people outside of playground rules is awful, and 3) it'd indubitably open world, which universally makes games awful.

The patrician answer is to mess around with the various disassemblies.

I agree that what you describe sounds like hell and MMOs are fucking dogshit, open world pokemon games are crap. Pokemmo is just the first 5 games roms, you play the region you want to play and there's a global trade link and you go between regions by catching a boat. that's it, that's the game. I think there is a micro transaction store where you buy shity little cosmetics, but you have to be a real low iq nigger to pay for a game that is free. it's nothing that you've imagined. As for you saying you don't play modern pokemon, why even defend it ?

I haven’t. The concepts I’ve defended are a decade old at best, and are from games that, were you to take such elements away, could still be described as “serviceable if a bit stale” at worst. The issues with Pokémon only metastasized with the Switch titles selling so well despite being a massive step down in quality.

The concept for Ultra Beasts was great, but design-wise some of them kinda suck. They should have stuck with Megas throughout the games instead of DMax/Gmax and Terrestialization.
 
I've personally never been someone who feels really strongly about the designs. Some designs I like and some I don't, even the ones i don't particularly like, I'm usually just indifferent towards them. A part of this is definitely because there's bigger problems in modern pokemon then the designs. Even if I hated the designs in gens 8 or 9 I would still think there's other issues to point out.

In a way, it shows the quality of pokemon and the state of the fanbase if there's non-factors to complain about, like how a lot of people disliked the designs of unovan pokemon. This also goes for certain things I personally complained about even in the 3ds era. Back during gen 6 i wished that the, at the time, modern games would be more difficult, but now? I'd personally be fine with gen 10 being easier than X&Y if the rest of the game is good.

Was this ever fixed in any way, or is it abandoned and permanently broken now that AlphaRad made his video on it?
Alpharad is still working on his other rom hack 'too many types' after it released, so he probably will eventually
 
I’ve been catching up with all of these videos coming out from people camping out in front of stores overnight to scalp purchase cards, especially the prismatic evolutions SPC at gameslop. The crashing out has made me realize something: all of these people who crowd restocks and camp out and give into FOMO all seem to be low IQ spergs. You camp out for another product of a set you know has dogshit pulls? You want to get into a fight over this shit set? You’re a fucking moron and you can have all of this sealed product. You have to lack any kind of self awareness to act the way these people act in public and they don’t even play the TCG.

The retarded collectorfags have motivated me to call it quits trying to buy anything else, especially with destined rivals and soon BB/WF being as heavily bought out as they are and people clearing out stores as well as breaking street dates. I’m just going to finish my galarian/trainer gallery collection like I did with ex era master sets and skip the rest of this like I did the DPP and HG/SS eras. I’ve mentioned (a now former) coworker who now spends over $500 every restock day who was rubbing it in both mine and my wife’s faces because we’ve both chosen to just play our let’s go games we got a while back.

I’ve found a lot of enjoyment in let’s go eevee despite the problems with leveling up being tied to trainer battles and catching wild Pokemon. I like that your eevee can wear cute accessories like the tiny little diglett hat.
 
I kinda sort of agree, but at the end of the day 3D pokemon main line games were the nail in the coffin for the series. you also have to admit that the game literally spawned the tranny mascot pokemon sylveon or whatever it's called or something.

Also fairy types are fucking gay as hell and kinda ruin the point of dragon type also now ghost dark is meaningless so spirttomb and sabeleye can be put in the bin. also, all the fairy type designs are lazy and boring. megas and ultra beasts are honestly fucking gay as hell and belong in a shit game like yu gi oh or that carbon copy wanna be pokemon game digimon.
Sylveon being adopted as a tranny mascot because of its colors and getting backlash for it never made sense. Why didn't trannies latch on to Marill or something? It kinda has the tranny colors and it could actually change sex before Gen 6. Also, it wasn't purposefully designed to be a tranny mon and they don't own that color pallette, stop letting them own it.

Spiritomb and Sableye's lack of weaknesses was never acknowledged in any of the games, it was a coincidence, not a gimmick, and both Pokemon were easy to defeat even without weaknesses. Megas and ultra beasts are better than whatever the fuck is going on nowadays, and Game Freak should've built upon them instead of abandoning them for generational gimmicks. And you calling Digimon a carbon copy of Pokemon teleported me to 2012.

*Mega Charizard Y and the Mega Latis are really the only "weak" Megas, and that's due to how fun the entire concept really is. The Naganadel line are the weakest Ultra Beast designs, since there really isn't any actually theming to make them more interesting.
Mega Charizard Y has one of the better designs and it's a very powerful Mega too, it actually follows the idea of the Mega as a 4th evolution. X in comparison is fanservice for the sake of fanservice.

Fighting too. The bug resist was solely due to U Turn.

While Fairy as an idea was nice, mechanically that shit was super overtuned.
My biggest gripe with the Fairy type is the Bug resistance, it's a stretch thematically and it adds yet another resistance to a type that's already resisted by everything. They should've nerfed U-turn instead.
 
Sylveon being adopted as a tranny mascot because of its colors and getting backlash for it never made sense.
It was adopted because as an eeveelution it's popular and trannies like to steal popular things as part of their whole skinwalker deal.

The backlash was because trannies doing this is annoying, but also because there are some people that would stop breathing if it were an option, just because trannies breathe.

Marril was too busy being Pikablu. The queer movement wa still relatively underground a the time. By the time trannie started anschlussing everything, Marril became just another mon.

I feel tha there are a few tranny Marril character/sonæ, though.

Y is just “Charizard but more,” X is what really looks like a Mega Evolution. It should have had Y’s typing though.
