I clearly can't read. Apologies.
Thought Pokemon Go had its own thread and didn't realize this was a catch all thread.

To be back on track, I wish they would drop more of the Pokemon for the new games so I an decide which one I want to get if I do decide to get one. I haven't bought a new game since XY and have felt like everything after has been demos. I have a small bit of hope on, they have to get one decent eventually.
 
To summarize the news for S/V:
  • It's open world and the Gyms can be taken on in any order
  • The new Gimmick is Teralizzing in which the pokemon's typing and moves are strengthen. They can even change typing with it depending on their "Tera Type".
  • Tera Raids will take the place of the G-Max raids and the gameplay will he more RTS than turn-based.
  • The legendary pokemon can indeed be riden and it can even change it's form to travel any environment.
  • There are, of course, more regional pokemon forms. However, the only one we were shown was a wooper variant that'll likely be a poison type.
Now with that out of the way...

Nice! This game keeps lookimg better and better. I like the animations of Miraidon and Miraidon, and I like the roster of Pokemon that have been confirmed to be in the game so far (Hydreigon and Arcanine are in, so I'm happy). The new gimmick looks interesting, at the very least it's visually appealing.

Just wish they had shown the evos for the starters. Looking forward to seeing how they look.

The graphics look so much better than Sword and Shield. Or maybe it's just because it's more colorful and my autistic ass is too distracted by pretties.

Fidough is perfect in every way fuck off I love bread and dogs there are literally no flaws❤️❤️❤️

Maybe it’s because the Switch is a few years older now, but the graphics look much worse to me. Everything looks so blurry and pixelated.

I’ll never forget the moment I defeated the first Trial Captain in the Sun & Moon Generation.

It was absolutely simple.

What did the Trial Captain say to me? “I am impressed you didn’t need to use Z-Power!”

Bitch, you are talking to someone who mastered Gen 1 within weeks despite not knowing Focus Energy did nothing for you. Someone who’s very first League Hall of Fame included the lame ass Tangela you can only get late in the game. Someone who insulted the very existence of Mega Evolution on a constant basis, and only didn’t insult the following gimmicks, Z-Power and Dynamaxing, because they were still a step-up on paper, but still dragged this tired conceptual gimmick out like crazy.

And now what have they done?

They have added a Crystal Aura and Sparkly Skin onto the Giant Pokemon.

In 1995, I thought that was just lazy when the Power Rangers Metallic Armor was just glitter.

The Franchise’s embarrassing need for these gimmicks is getting tiring.

The graphics look fine (though pixelated; I suspect we will be getting less than native resolution), but I am worried about the “not in-game footage” qualifier. The optimist in me wants to believe that that’s just for the headmaster-dude with his superimposed captions and VO work, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they pulls Ubisoft and crank up the draw distance and particle effects in the open world for trailers (anybody remember premier footage for The Division?).

That said, the mocap work looks a LOT better. NPC movements, even background ones, look a lot more natural and fluid, and less like someone jammed a wire brush up their ass and moved them around with it like a joystick, like in SwSh.

I’m cautiously optimistic
