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

I know it isn't set far enough in the past but I still kinda want them to show us what pre-fossilized shieldon, bastiodon, cranidos and rampardos looked like. They probably won't, but I don't think they're going to be setting too many pokemon games in the distant past so now's the time.
I was thinking about that too, it be cool to see more “fleshy” versions of those Pokémon.

I bet they'll only consider that if they decide to explain the lore of Mew, given the species is supposed to be the origin of Pokémon, including the prehistoric Pokémon.
 
Slightly off topic but this just gave me a flashback to that one guy who reset his game at least 1000 times to get a shiny Treecko.
I get the whole point of playing legitimately and all, but sweet baby Jesus nobody in their right mind will blame you for just giving up and Gamesharking that shit after the 10th cycle. Shiny hunting has got to be in the top 5 most retarded things people do in video games overall.

So are we to assume the reason all these Hisuian pokemon aren't in any future games is cause they went extinct
Hell, their genetic line might have ended up somewhere else in the world, given how Pokemon's loosely based on Earth and I figure the existence of new Pokemon in newer games is just a silent retcon, because how else can you explain that they managed to figure out genetic manipulation before discovering Hoothoot, because nobody ever thought to drive south for about an hour

Maybe all the Hisuian Growlithes got traded away to Westerners during the Opium Wars and they all ended up in Pokemon's equivalent to Boston. I dunno.

I could see Pokemon Legends being a series for if they ever feel the need to go back and explain the lore for certain legendaries. It probably wouldn't happen, but I would love to see a Pokemon Legends Zygarde so that we could finally have the Pokemon Z in some form.

I would've agreed with you before we knew of Complete Zygarde. I love Zygarde as it is, but I really hate the stupid gundam form it has, and a Legends game would absolutely be focused around that. Why couldn't it just stay a big cool snake? What's a big robot got to do with balance and duality?

Look at this lil casual

Given that enough Dex entries, Pokémon Mansion, and the Faraway Island event (still can't believe Emerald lets you go to supposedly Guyana) are probably enough for base Mew lore.
 
Just not got to see the new trailer. It looks very alright. Probably not for me. But! I am glad to see them trying some new stuff.

Did it seem to anyone else as if whoever directed this trailer had just spent an entire night watching the BOTW trailers on loop?

I prefer the original formes of the mix and match fossils.
 
I'm glad that walking Pokemon seem to be making a return in the remakes. Still, I do not like the chibi style and the second trailer really highlighted how ugly I find them to look. The trailer also made me remember contests back in gen 4. I wish that they somehow made them more akin to how contests are in the anime, but alas.

I'm now pretty hyped for Legends. I can't wait to see what Sinnoh was like before. I wonder if the playable characters in Legends Arceus are the ancestors of Dawn and Lucas.

I'm honestly curious to see if the gym leaders have ancestors, not like I want to see Cynthia's grandma or granddad-
 
Am I the only one who looks at new growlith and thinks it's an onion:

I will wholeheartedly accept foo dog arcenine though. Sounds dope.

Anyway, legends arceus looks a lot better now. I like the idea of dodging to evade encounters with high-level/enraged pokemon. I would really like if you had to do different maneuvers to avoid different pokemon though (e.g. a dive/roll to evade flying types) but maybe that's too much button space.

Still a lot of other things I want. I'll sperg only a little.
It's canonical that some pokemon are as smart/smarter than humans. It would be awesome to see settlements made by pokemon for you to be able to quest in.

I would LOVE "intelligence"—or something—to play a part in how you build teams (e.g. having intelligent "ally" pokemon who are rare/can't be caught but CAN be recruited via quest. Maybe you only have 1-2 allies per party, or one permanent slot with a second slot for active quests. Completed questlines add that pokemon to a roster of recruitable allies. Meanwhile, your remaining party slots (4-5 slots) are filled by "pet" pokemon whom you CAN catch. This may be overly complicated fluff but I really just want........ new ways to play the game. Codefags feel free to steal this for a ROM hack).
Spergery aside, I may buy legends arceus. First trailer made me X to doubt but second trailer looks.. ok. Kinda interested.

Guess we'll see how the real game looks. Good thing Nintendo lets people post gameplay these days so we can make fun of them.
 
of course is the typical niggerfied Ace Attorney character avatar twatter
Fucking cancer
The Great Ace Attorney 1&2 official localization was a mistake
I love how to these absolute retard fucking weebs they act like japan didn't do its own little bits of imperialism with shit like the Rape of Nanking (not meji era but if japan was the good boys these twatter fags claim they are wouldn't they have learned from how the evil west fucked them over), no Japan were good boys who dindu nuffen, again not to say the meji era and it's after affects don't matter to its contribution to culture but Christ its so fucking retarded the lengths they will go to say "west bad, east good" from a bunch of morons that never even left outside of their hometown.

The price of the Let's Go games finally dropped enough. Bit the bullet and bought Let's Go Eevee, which is surprisingly harder to find than Pikachu - I've been meaning to for a while after seeing comparisons between LGPE and SWSH and I was absolutely surprised by it. The tutorials are short and sweet, the graphics - while typically lacking for Pokemon - are much livelier and polished than SWSH and the music's pretty good. Even found a full odds shiny Rattata while going to face my rival near the Indigo Plateau.

I'm not going to give my full thoughts until I've played through more of the game, but so far what I'm seeing is way more promising than SWSH was.
