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

Since there was no mention of Giratina or the Distorsion World, I'm expecting a Giratina DLC. Otherwise, the remakes seem decent enough. Still doesn't warrant the high price though, especially if they're gonna keep the retarded butchered Pokedex idea from SwSh.

Now that I think about it, we didn't see much in the way of post game content either. Skipping out on the Frontier in favor of doing just the Battle Tower like in D/P would honestly suck.

Holy shit Arceus does not look like hot garbage and made the most meaningful change to the battle system since the physical special split, hope styles stay in mainline since they would add alot of tactical variety without being a meme like maxing was.
Whatever happened after SWSH it must have kicked GF's ass into designing a game that feeds into itself
Edit:
>gets an evolution

Stantler Posters, we won

oh jooooooooooy, more alt versions/evolutions of older pokemon from specific regions. GameFreak, how DO you fucking do it? I've AAAALLLLLLWAAAAAAAYYYYYS wanted a Braviary that looked like a colossal faggot!!! /sneed

That actually makes ense, since this was before Sinnou was colonised... equivalen to the prototype Pokémon designs.
Th is actually a great surprise!
...
...getting prototype Pokémon designs in an official game is very unlikely, but you could have said the same about open-world Pokémon games that hire 'this man'. Anything is possible now.

So are we to assume the reason all these Hisuian pokemon aren't in any future games is cause they went extinct

That or just the circumstances in the environments to make these ancient variations exist just are not around anymore

Wow BDSP actually looks good and not the dumpster fire I thought it would be. And following Pokemon seemed to have returned outside of Amity Square. Nice to see Pokeball stickers make a return too.

The fact that it's pulling elements like that from HGSS makes me for platinum content in BDSP, the fact no letters for the stickers were shown makes me sad I won't be able to write "Gay Retard" on my pokeballs anymore though who knows maybe they are crazy enough to put in the unknown quest again like mad men

Speaking of those regional variants, I think it's safe to assume that the typing for them all is obvious?

H. Growlithe: Rock or Rock/Fire

Wyrdeer: Normal/Ice

Basculegion: Water/Ghost

H. Braviary: Psychic/Flying

Placing my bet on rock/fire because 1. mt. coronet is a volcano in ancient sinnoh and 2. at that point pure rock would just be a bootleg rockruff

I'm still not holding my breath but seeing the footage for BDSP and Arceus caught my attention - which is something the games haven't done in a long time. I can't believe I'm saying this - but I'm beginning to feel slightly eager to see what else they're planning to do. They're both a far cry from the trailers they showed off the first time around.

Also I love the way the pokeballs emit steam and fireworks when you use them to capture pokemon. Nice touch.

Legends looks like it's playing in 480p to keep 30fps despite nothing demanding happening on screen. BDSP looks better but is missing Battle Frontier or any reason to play it beyond post game. Legends also has checklist system for tasks which will be the bulk of the game outside of the story.

HOME functionality coming in 2022 for both, BDSP having a Pal Park will mean its revamped into something else, or it will not be functional until HOME connectivity, though I could easily guarantee both Legends and BDSP will only have one way transfers to HOME. Disappointing stream only having new forms to generate hype and people playing defence for Legends because the models are not sub-30fps anymore despite being a product of the most profitable franchise in existence with its head studio working on it.

Come on Girafarig evolution! It won't happen, but it has such potential.

I can't wait to get my hands on that Wyrdeer.

 

[MightyBiteySnake]

Wyrdeer is my new best friend, if anyone talks shit I'm coming for ya

It looks fucking cool man, hope that if this and basculine's evolutions are any indication these forums will be going mostly to underappricated/Non-KANTTTTTTTTTOOOOOO pokemon.
So as an aside, what are good nicknames for this boy other than just naming him after santa's raindeer?

You could name him Respect. Its evolution certainly demands it.

 

[Love Machine]

Absolutely based picks for new evos and forms. Gamefreak sure knows how to get me excited.

I dunno, Legends looks interesting enough for me to want to give it a try, but I'm fine with skipping BDSP.

I'm planning on getting BDSP since my buddies are and it seems like a solid remaster, I'm still too tentative on Legends to preorder. I wanna give it a few weeks after release to see if I want it or not. also troon cyrus genuinely unsettles me

I would have put in a pre-order for Legends if I wasn't so disappointed by SWSH. I'd rather wait to see the reaction in terms of quality before giving them more money for another unfinished game.
