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

[Zeke Von Genbu]

Yeah, I feel the game should at least have one extra year of dev time at least and release a new generation every 4 years instead of 3.

If I had to propose a rough 5 year cycle for console Pokemon games that I think is plausible to happen it'd go something like.

Year 1: New Gen made by GF

Year 2: Spin off game that is some genre shift that is meant as pure fan service for popular mons (Pokken Tournament, Snap, etc) made by some studio.

Year 3: New gen sequel (Ultra Sun/Moon, BW2, etc game) made by GF.

Year 4: Spin off game that is still an rpg of some sort with more focus on adapting Pokemon's setting to something more interesting then the standard formula akin to Mystery Dungeon, PLA, or Colosseum/Gale of Darkness.

Year 5: Next new gen, repeat cycle from here.

Put remakes somewhere in years 2-4 as needed. This way GF has about 4-5 years to has out a next gen as it on the side makes its sequel within 2 years instead of 1 year like Sun and Moon.

Not really a big fan of the player character designs. I don't know, they seem a bit off for a Pokemon game.

They look like clones despite being boy and girl.

 

[Archeops]

Well, hunting for an Alpha/Shiny Spiritomb is going to be a HECK of a lot easier now.

It appears that they can be in massive mass outbreaks.

Oh, and massive mass outbreaks WILL stuff up your boxes pretty quickly so it’s best to release what you’ve caught unless it’s important. TPCi should’ve announced Bank compatibility today because I’m a bit miffed.

EDIT: I replaced the pic with a better one I found on Twitter that also confirms that Unown can appear in massive mass outbreaks.

They look like clones despite being boy and girl.

The lighting on their faces looks off too, it makes them look like Pixar characters.

I guess since pocketmon games are now developed for a simultaneous worldwide release, Western developers have influence over game design from the start. The old days of the games being developed in Japan and then later localized in the West are gone now.

 

[SteelPlatedHeart]

Alpha Spirtombs are terrifying…but I got four of them.

 

[Lowlife Adventures]

I don't like the ingame player model. Not sure if it's because of the uncanny valley or because the more realistic design style seems out of place in the cartoony pokemon world.

Edit: it's the blush. They could've just given the PC the usual pink circles used in anime instead of the oddly realistic-looking rosy cheeks.

 

[Rotollo 2]

I doubt it’ll be a vassal state since non-Japan regions are largely independant of each other. On the other hand that doesn’t rule out Japan-inspired architecture being somewhere in the game.

Its more of a joke about how they might be reusing alot of sinnoh mons due to this being built off of pla, we already got lucario, starly, and combee

Like I said it’s mentioned on the games’ official site, if PLA-styled mechanics were in the game then they’d be here in the text.

Japanese site has a different translation I think but it is machine google translate shit

I'll wait and see when we get gameplay footage in like may or some shit

EDIT: I completely forgot to add this.

But here, a "better" Pokemon for this display.

Spoiler: A most cursed Pokemon POP

Now you have something that is part-soy, part-furfag, part-consoomer, and part-degenerate all in itty-bitty package!

Yeah but its not a kanto shill mon so it's not as funny

Spoiler

Really tho the white face makes it a bitch for fethering and made it rough to add in the background
but here's my attempt lol

 

[TrippinKahlua]

I hope Grass Cat gets a fierce evolution.

I realize “Gatito” is Spanish for Kitten, but couldn’t they have just used the more common “Gato” for Cat?

This name is so convoluted.

Spiro Agnew?

 

[A Widdle Woach]

Do people really think Fuecoco looks like an apple?
Personally I see a ghost pepper. His face has skull like markings and his little pepper shaped body.
I’m really hoping this means it’ll be Fire/Ghost

 

[TrippinKahlua]

There’s too many Fire/Ghosts

I hope it’s Fire/Dragon.

 

[Nauseated Courgi]

I hope it’s Fire/Dragon.

Probably won't happen as that would make him the objectively best choice type-wise and it would also mean we'll get another Water/Fairy starter to balance it out.

 

[TrippinKahlua]

Well I don’t want to see another Ground Type Crocodile. And I sure hope the Starters are multi type this time.

The Starters always get more interesting if they are Multi Type.

 

[AnotherPleb]

The Starters always get more interesting if they are Multi Type.

Water starter already looks like it's part flying, but I wouldn't be surprised if it turns into water/fighting.

 

[TurkishOreo]

Water/Ghost to fulfill the JoJo angle.

GF has been using Fighting too often already.

 

[Nauseated Courgi]

Well I don’t want to see another Ground Type Crocodile. And I sure hope the Starters are multi type this time.

It would be a first for the fire starters, though. Not to mention that that the Fire/Ground multi-typing hasn't been used since gen 3.

 

[Creep3r]

Now I remember where I've seen that dumpy-looking apple crocodile before.

 

[Kuchipatchi]

Probably won't happen as that would make him the objectively best choice type-wise and it would also mean we'll get another Water/Fairy starter to balance it out.

We've already had water/fairy from Popplio and I don't want the little cutie bird turn into a fairy twink.
Even though I think all three starters look cute, I'm going for the duck boy.

I hope that emulation will be smooth for the game when it first comes out, I want to try it for free before buying it.

And I'm 100% certain that the region is based on Spain because there's the building that looks like Sagrada Família, a famous cathedral that's been in the works for ages.

 

[Andthensomeguy]

There’s too many Fire/Ghosts

I hope it’s Fire/Dragon.

Can we also add hoping for a Pseudo-Legendary that isn't a dragon-type while were at it?

I love dragon-types but we haven't had a non-dragon type Pseudo-legendary since Metagross all the way back in Gen 3, twenty freaking years ago!

As a reptile/dinosaur/dragon enthusiast, fuck you. I see and acknowledge where you're coming from, and you're right, but fuck you.

 

[NerdShamer]

New game looks nice, but did anyone else notice that they didn't show off the battling system? Can't wait to see how retarded the new gimmick is.

nAn entire generation of young girls are about to learn a very hard and sad lesson with the weed cats Evo line.

I won't be surprised if it gains the Fairy type.

Now I remember where I've seen that dumpy-looking apple crocodile before.

I miss that series, although AlphaDream brought their failure upon themselves
