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

What the hell is with starter evolutions getting increasingly anthro? It's really off-putting.
Grookey's evo is fuckin rad tho, he's an ape anyway so he gets a complete pass from me. The other two are more meh in my eyes.

Edit: Gigantomax Lapras, weird honeyjar dragon thing, new sneks

/vp/ is a massive salt mine right now and I am having so much fun watching them melt down over the leaks.
 
That Scorbunny final evolution is the weakest thing I have ever seen.
 
Here I was saying I'd wait until Super Sword or whatever this time, but with those Pokemon...yeesh. The dex is the one thing I pretty much always look forward to and I can't say I'm a fan of even a single one of those designs, maybe the centipede? I think maybe Sun and Moon were my last stop with this franchise, much as I hate to say it. There's not a single thing I can say I'm excited for with these.
 
I am glad they're giving some of the underwhelming and/or forgotten pokemon the gigantamax forms. Kingler and Lapras look really neat. I think it will be good for both casuals and the hardcore competitive people.

Really liking the snakes.
 
Alright, someone slap me, but is there any actual confirmation that these things are real? Where the hell is the confirmation?

Cause remember, we've been down this road before:

Especially considering how long the initial 'leak' was made a long time ago on 4-chan, there's plenty of time to make these assets.

Not saying that I don't like what we're seeing, love the foxes and I hope they're real, but everyone's diving headfirst into the pool here.

And remember, that fake bug pokemon up there? It only took the guy 1 day to make this and troll the entire pokemon community. I'm just saying, we shouldn't just jump face first into the shallow end.

I was wondering when we were going to get the leaks, but it still fucking astounds me these leaks were even able to make it out. Maybe we're being trolled (Grookey's final evo, if true, is bloody amazing ngl, I might actually change my starter because of a drumming Jheri curl gorilla), but that employee clearly has no fucks to give and is willing to risk their livelihood to keep to tradition.

But in general, I honestly don't know how I feel about these new Pokemon, especially the anthro angle on many of them, and the Dynamaxing just feels... yeah, gimmicky, I dunno how else to explain it. I hope they're only limited to certain areas, I don't really know if I'm going to be super happy with having to be forced to use it when I *really don't want to*.

Outside of SwSh, yesterday I finally whipped out my UltraMoon copy to start playing through it. Figured I should hype myself up somehow.
 
What the fuck were they smoking when they made up Popplio to evolve into Pennywise the Clown?

Grookey evolving into a drummer has been one of the leaks since the start, same with Soible being a spy, its definitely true.

He already helped with Town (which apparently sucks lol) so might as well make use of him whilst he's hanging out there.
Whatever happened to that guy who was claiming that GF was going all in on Town to give them a non-Pokemon future. Because just looking at the game that clearly wasn't the case.
 
Centiscorch and purrserker are so fucking stromg design wise. I just feel bad for sobble fags.

I'm still sticking with Sobble as my starter. I'm not thrilled with the final but I'm not spazing about it either.

Hopefully it'll come across with more character in motion.

Am I the only one who thinks Grookey's first Evo looks like Pepe?
 
Yeah, water starter is my usual jam, but I think I’ll be taking the fire starter for the first time with this one.
 
I'm personally a fan of the fox Pokemon. I'll try not to spoil myself too much since I do want to be surprised by what I see in-game but as of now the fox is my favorite.
 
Favorite new mons are definitely the fire centipede and the coil snake
AGREED
