Why dont pokemon actually attack each other?I want to see bite actually bite.Is it too expensive to do?
I don't know, why don't you get any bitches?
>>59046601maybe
>>59046607Your normie insults don't work on me
>>59046611I got a (you), so I guess they do faggot .
>>59046601You basically answered your question, it’s also for family friendly purposes, pokemon was always rather lighthearted and having them directly punch each other is violent according to soccer moms. it might have been possible if they kept the limited move pool on pokemon but game freak are morons and give the Pokemon way too many moves to ever make custom animations for every learnable move
>>59046666>give the Pokemon way too many movesYet Pokemon like Theivul still have shitdick movepools.
>>59046601>I want to see bite actually bite.Is it too expensive to do?Yes, because you would need a new animation for each model. It's much easier to just add a generic mandible animation.>Why dont pokemon actually attack each other?Pokemon don't actually fight each other, Pokemon is a "sport" with rules, that's why they follow turns, only have 4 moves, fall for entry hazards when they come out of the pokeball, Pokemon that clearly can't move well outside water can fight perfectly on ground and respect priorities, etc. The anime and manga got it wrong, it's not a real cockfight.
>>59046601>why don't boxers use weapons to do more damage?
>>59046681It's absolutely supposed to be like a real fight, nothing in the games suggest that the turn by turn fighting isn't an abstraction of the trainers giving orders to their Pokémon. They just tend do not fight to the death, and Pokémon love fighting
>>59046707It's not a real fight.>Trainer 1 sends out Magikarp>Trainer 2 sends out Delcatty>Magikarp (outspeeds Delcatty) uses Tackle!>Delcatty (after patiently waiting for the enemy attack to land) uses Double Slap!>Magikarp (it's its turn again) uses Tackle!>Delcatty (after respecting Magikarp's turn priority again) uses Double Slap!>Magikarp (it's time to be allowed to move again) uses its most devastating attack: Splash!It's a mock fight that respects rules.
Because they chase an E/7's rating, meaning they cannot in fact display such animations and still get such a rating, as that is more than just "mild fantasy violence", which is the reason for them getting an E/7's (because they can esoterically display any type of attack while not actually triggering a higherr age rating like they'd be forced to do if they made the critters actually made comntact with their physical moves).I want to see less adults act so fucking retarded and egocentric and sperg about what (They) want their kiddy game series to be or do. Because they have no fucking concept of it not being theirs, which shows they still haven't grown the fuck up to the reality they've found they've shaped the franchise into.
>>59046851Kids dont play pokemon, at least not for a decade or two.Are you pretending to be retarded?
>>59046747At least bait the hooks next time
>>59046873That cope has never been applicable to the real world, as evidenced by this shit REMAINING kiddy slop while its peers assign themselves the older demographics, to get the cast-offs and turnover kids who grew up and can't into the kiddyshit no moar. And thats no different to Gen 1, when Tajiri told Mario Club to fuck right the fuck off begging for more challenge in Red/Green, as he INTENDED it to be brain-dead fucking easy for shithead kids to be able to play easily. they're still hitting their market, shit even the delay of the next Gen lines the fuck up with past Nintendo system releases (Pokémon appears on new hardware two years after the new hardware launches. Nintendo release a smaller form system release to coincide with Pokémon's new system debut. Switch 2 released in 2025, Pokémon's releasing in 2027). And I guarantee like they made bank off shithead kids with the playdoh Switch Lite, they're going o hoover up just as many with the playmobil Switch 2 Lite.
>>59047030Forever miffed the BDSP special edition was a Switch Lite. I had the DS Lite special edition it was an homage to as a kid so I initially wanted it, but I passed on it as it wasn't a full size Switch (or Switch OLED). Don't really have a use for a Lite myself, I might have considered it if they'd given the Lite dock compatibility.
>>59046639A rebuke is not "seething"
>>59046670There’s definitely some that get sidelined for popular Pokemon but overall Pokemon get too many moves, more importantly there’s just very little thought into what moves Pokemon do get. Snorlax for example has access to double team. And literally everyone get’s toxic.
>>59047070never said it was
