That will be 30$ on top of 80$ sir.
The other one is cute but this one is just retarded
>>720709426The other one looks fucking stupid and makes no sense. Why does it just have things sticking out of its ears? Why didn't they just make it the ears? It throws off the entire designAt least the X one has a clear shape and flow
>>720709229every single mega just looks like a shitpost
>>720709229>rAIchuBravo slopfreak
>>720709229>Gayfreak gave up so hard on Raichu it's just Pikachu but shaped in an X or YI really do love paying money for dogshit
>>720709229So much Mega Raichu art in my TL
>>720710071Which one has two dicks and which one has four balls?
sex with electric rats
>>720709229>It's another Gen wun Poke evolution but goofy and ugly as fuckI hate nu-Gamefreak so much
>>720710109Logic says that Raichu Y would have two cocks since his horns stand upright while Raichu X would have two balls since his tails are down.
>>720709229at least they're adding onto his existence after two decades+ of pikachu being in the limelight thanks to ash.
>>720709229>game isn't even out yet>already showing off DLC megasPeople love eating shit and Nintendo knows
>>720709229>30$>80$Why are ESL spics lying about games they would never play anyway?
>Raichu X got one tiny fang>Raichu Y got two tiny fangs>Fangs are absent from the rest of the lineWhy they added these details?
>>720709229I'm not evolving pikachu.
>>720710109Male Bidoof have their two extra balls showing
>>720709229>They butchered it twice Raichubros...
>>720710548gorochu had fangs
>>720711507>Nishida: Yes. It was “Pika(chu),” “Rai(chu),” and “Goro(chu).” The Pokémon known as Gorochu bared fangs and even had a pair of horns.So it's literally Gorochu
>>720710223I hate whiny people who either don’t even play the games even more or buy them regardless but complain anyway.
>>720709229>day one $30 DLC for a $80 gameHow the fuck does Nintendo keep getting away with it?
>>720709229do I really have to buy the dlc on release or can I just get this shit later? I heard the first wave is just dumb costumes and the good shit will be released later.
>>720710548Raichu Y things on his head are supposed to be ugly ass horns. The beta Raichu evolution had horns and fangs. It was supposed to be some type of electric oni I guess.
>>720709229Pokemon gets worse every time I turn my back
>>720711662You guys are the biggest problem to gamingKys
>>720711662You can always buy later. It doesn't change anything really.
>>720711662The only time-gated DLC content are earning 3 balls of 4 different types, aka fucking nothing. The costumes are not time-gated, if you have the DLC then they're going to show up in your wardrobe.
>>720711852>>720711901thank fuck
The problem I have with mega art is the "base with additions" style that do. I just can't see that as anything other than fan art.
>>720711605Nta but the game doesn't seem too convincing to buy besides from the mid gameplay so im not buying im just going to wait for either another monster stories or actually buy the digimon time Stranger while also waiting for a new update for palworld or i can emulate it when it gets a rom or something since its on switch 1 too
>>720712561Fan art is better than most megas.
>>720711662Sorry anon, you HAVE to buy it, just like how you HAVE to buy season passes for every game you play.
Kill all a-holefuckers
>>720712561What should it be? Mega evolution is the Pokemon powering up further, not evolving.Like the retards that asked for mega Houndoom to have 3 heads. That's dumb.
>>720713642but this is just pikachu & raichu fused isn't that also dumb another note to mention it looks like someone's pokemons drawn oc
>Die to Cheren in my Blaze Black 2 Redux nuzlocke>Close the game>Check /v/>See >>720709229
>>720711623Because Pokemon fans have proven that they are cultists that will shell out more money for less content. The success of Sword and Shield firmly proved that Pokemon fans are genuine NPCs and GameFreak can get away with ANYTHING.
Raichu > Raichu X >>> Alolan Raichu > Raichu Y
>>720713930Z-Moves are a negative
>>720714146>less content is okay because I don't like itThe world would be better off without you.
>>720714212Less bad content is absolutely unabashedly 100% better
>>720714146And SV has 823 pokemon but he clearly made that to shitpost
>>720714212Ill introduce content to your future games then a 5hr long expansion where i fuck your mom
>>720711812What the fuck anon? Stop turning your back then! I can't believe you're the one responsible for the state of this series.
>>720709229Hasn't the game been finished for a year according to leaks? DLC 4 months after launch seems ok in that case.
>>720710548One of them deals more damage than the other with Bite.
>>720713930I really really want them to make a 2D game but with maximum focus on soul. Hell release it on the fucking 3DS if you have to in order to keep the graphics workload down.
>>720713812>but this is just pikachu & raichu fused isn't that also dumbNot really. Other mega evolutions of the past like Tyranitar, Ampharos, Gengar and the new Dragonite do it also. To be honest they should've made so that Blastoise did the same, too.
>>720715562why would you want a dogshit game? at least ask chunsoft or the devs from pokemon conquest
>>720709229>30 bucks for a deviantart style bad drawed mega raichu form.Nintendo is so dead to me, and pirating the shit out of the Switch 2 will feel even better now.
>>720716091Yeah we get it, you're part of an anti-Nintendo discord. Can you just do something else with your time?
>>72071609130 bucks is for a dlc like we've gotten for the previous gens you stupid human cock bait elf.
Surprised they gave Raichu a Mega form instead of Pikachu with how few fucks they've given about Raichu since they made it.
>>720716273This is probably them realising exactly that.
TPC suing PocketPair makes a lot of sense when you see that THIS is what they've been cooking up. Really exposed their grift.
>>720716396What does that even mean.
>>720716396>when you see that THIS is what they've been cooking upThere's not even any proof that they had this before Palworld came out either.
>>720716437Except, you know, common sense
>>720715581>Other mega evolutions of the past like Tyranitar, Ampharos, Gengar and the new Dragonitethose are different those are like devolving back to gain back its pre-evolution traits while this just looks like a fusionmon
>>720716091Make sure to download more viruses while you're out there.
>>720716437You're right. This could be them trying their very best in response to a new competitor. That's much worse for them, honestly.
>>720716476Wasn't ZA originally supposed to come out in 2024?
>>720709229I swear to god gayfreak keeps fucking over raichu on purpose
>>720716627yes, also it was in hiatus and brought back out of hiatus
>>720716520i can't believe piratefags are this desperate
>>720716745but why would anyone that aren't genuine autistic pokemon fans buy this when it looks like someone's first flash project
>>720716884>but why would anyone that aren't genuine autistic pokemon fans buy this when it looks like someone's first flash projectBecause at the end of the day, it's STILL Pokemon.You don't have to be autistic for that at all.
I was really hoping we were free of megas, the gigantamax designs were a lot more soulful and this means my girl Heracross is permanently tied to that god awful form to be usable in champions
>>720716437It was revealed February last year. >>720717019>the gigantamax designs were a lot more soulfulNo, no they weren't.
>>720709229I've decided to not play Z-A because of this shitThe premature DLC announcement gave me the ick
>>720717019>I was really hoping we were free of megas, the gigantamax designs were a lot more soulfulEveryone would disagree on you with this and it's not even funny.
>>720717053Consideirtng it was originally going to release in 2024 after delays, they probably already had the DLC finished.
>>720717101Yes most Pokemon fans are retarded I’m used to it. Butterfree turning into Mothra is a lot cooler than Tyranitar getting a bunch of spikes.
>>720716971my question if this was sony, microsoft or even valve would their opinion change and they would they actually criticize it instead of being unhealthily optimistic about it >Yes i know it's pointless to bring up other consoles because nintendofgs are going sperg no matter what
>>720717046>>720716476>It was revealed February last year.OOF.
>>720717252that was when the game was released it existed during 2023
>>720717215Maybe not for Microsoft or Sony but absolutly Valve if only because people can write reviews there.Whether or not those reviews are worth a shit is another matter entirely though.I like nintendo games personally, I just don't care for the company itself.
>>720717215>>720717335i just realized i made a spelling mistake >I like nintendo games personally, I just don't care for the company itself.thats pretty fair i only got a playstation 3 for only 4 games and also the playstation home but i wasn't really a fanboy of sony i was a fan of the xbox 360 since i played most games on it same with the wii
>>720709229>NEW Raichuits the fucking shill Rat
>>720709229>Both new Mega Raichu are electric monotypeSo DOA as far as competitive use goes?
>>720709229Thats pretty good. I love Pokemon and also own a lot of merch like t shirts and pillows and blankets and floor mats and cups and plates.
>>720711605Damn.This is seriously >You don't even play the games!and>You'll buy it anyways!In one post.
>>720713642mega is meant to be going back to a more primal form, all these new megas do not have that
>>720718173>mega is meant to be going back to a more primal formWas that actually mentioned or is that something you are assuming?
>>720718173>mega is meant to be going back to a more primal form,Just because a few like the weather trio, Aerodactyl and Charizard Y do it doesn't mean it applies to all.
Did you all forget Xenoblade 2 also had a $30 DLC announced for it before it launched?
>>720717252This is where common sense comes in anon.Do you think that the game was made in a single year?
>>720717215>my question if this was sony, microsoft or even valve would their opinion change and they would they actually criticize it instead of being unhealthily optimistic about itSony? Are you fucking kidding?They've had the absolute worst generation right now and yet the system has sold 80m and they still have devout cultists. No one criticises Sony ever.
>>720718512Quite a few Nintendo games had $30 DLC.Instead of going back to the MTX model they had under iwata Nintendo has opted for an expansion model where they have small dlc like challenge modes, extra quests etc and the a final massive expansion.
>>720709229Honestly I'm glad they buried my interest in this before it released. I'm a drone when it comes to Pokémon games, but locking megas behind a day 1 DLC? I'm not that much of a fag.
Do you think maybe the guy responsible for cool mega designs in the past upset his superiors by getting nore attention than their garbage "funny" and gimmicky designs, so they removed him and banned cool designs internally? And then with Gigantamax being a flop ,Tera looking absolutely ridiculous, and seeing how people were anticipating the return of megas they got so buttblasted they purposefully decided to shit all over the new megas?Japs are autistic and vindictive like that, internal sabotage by an angry guy is very much possible.
>>720718797>day 1 DLC?Try to be more subtle instead of using the shitposts the anti-Nintendo discords gave been spamming since the reveal.
>>720718797But they did that in X and Y with Mega Blaziken, all you did was memory hole it.
>>720718543I don't think anyone doubts that Nintendo is always working on "the next" Pokemon game. However, the designs... that's another thing.
>>720709229who the fuck okayed these??? i would've fired the fuckin guy who came to me with these designs.
>>720711623The board darling, sonic crossworld has day1 season pass dlc and everyone is happy about it. Nintendo observed industry trends and took it as a good thing to do.
>>720719124This is more of a modern gaming issue than anything else and I hate how everyone is OK with it because they keep giving devs they like a free pass, so it just became the norm.
Why do both look like they are growing extra appendages and turning back into Pikachu?
>>720719109the only thing you're in charge of is a microwave timer
>>720719203Knowing GF it was intentional.If it looks closer to the main mascot people will like it more I'm guessing.
>>720709229>Raichu but PikachuCringe
>>720719253Of course it was intentional. Do you n think they just manifest the design from the ether?
>>720719203Because Raichu will always live under Pikachu's shadow. It's a heaven mandate.
>>720719295No, AI did that for them
>>720719230>defending an actual bad design.of course the diehard fan comes to defend this travesty.
>>720719295Of course not but according to shitposters they did.
>>720719464if you wanna decree yourself the supreme ruler of taste, make an argument why it's badit's still gonna be wrong because taste is subjective
>>720719464>calling someone a diehard fan>hates pokemon like he's personally offendedPot meet kettle.
>>720719575I don't think they said they hate pokemon just that design in general.Personally it's fine for me I guess? It doesn't really do anything that makes me say 'wow' though.
>>720709229IT LOOKS FUCKING SHIT AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>720719187The difference is barely anyone said anything when Sega pulled that shit but when Nintendo does the same now it's a big deal
Theres no way a single person at Gamefreak still cares at all about Pokemon.
>>720719824You know he's going to act like it's the other way around so why bother.
>>720709229
They're hideous. Would much rather of had Gorochu.
>>720711591Where the horns then, nigga? They got stupid new ears instead lol
>>720719824Sega is a dying company with exactly 1 relevant IP that they treat like a battered housewife, wanting them to be held to the same standards as a gigantic company like Nintendo is pure retardation.
>>720719824It's either an $80 game with DLC you have no idea about or a 'deluxe edition' that has the dlc you know nothing about bundled for an even more expensive price.Then people will slurp it up every time, only to then go onto whatever social media platforms they use to complain about it.And the cycle repeats with the games slowly getting more expensive over the years.
>>720709479>Why does it just have things sticking out of its ears?Because Raichu has those, you are complaining over something like 30 years old.
>>720719857They gave up after gen 5 wasn't well received but gen 6 was, and since the games have gotten them way more profit as they've gotten more and more lazy, they aren't allowed to care even if they wanted to.
>>720709229Both of these fuckers are so ugly. Man atleast I have alolan raichu and he doesn't get this dogshit. Man I thought the guys saying pokemon designs have went to shit since gen v were retarded, but maybe with sv and this game they have a point. Fucking mega pikachu y looks like something an ai would generate.
>>720720085Sega does have other ip's, the sakura wars reboot did alright, but sega is the most incompetent company out there and killed their revived series immediately after that. And don't get started on how shit the yakuza series has been since they went turned based.
>>720720085If you don't want to accept Sega why not bamco and Digimon then?They aren't failing, they're the second largest toy maker in the world, yet time stranger has real day 1 dlc and pre order dlc as well as obnoxious editions.
I'm at the point of accepting that Pokemon was never good.
>>720720673TS even has surprise Denuvo and no one is talking about it.
>>720720750Then elaborate.how is it worse than other rpgs.Most time you people don't even know what a good game is.
>>720709229>30$Why are ESLs like this? It's not like they have money for video games in Paraguay or wherever OP is from.
>>720720815For one, most other rpgs at least try new things and over half the designs arent objectively dogshit. The only thing of any worth anymore for Pokemon is the girls and even those designs have fallen off a cliff.
>>720720979Objectively speaking, pokemon has more depth than other turn-based RPG series.>Types>IV>EV>Abilities >Held item>Moves>Generational gimmick>Other shits i forgot
>>720721182>If this is your metric than any gacha game has more depth than Pokemon.
>>720721304Except Gacha has it all in a horrible mix of microtransaction hell with multiple timegates on everything, dragging it all down.
>>720718865>Do you think maybe the guy responsible for cool mega designs in the past upset his superiors by getting nore attention than their garbage "funny" and gimmicky designs, so they removed him and banned cool designs internally?There was no such thing as "cool mega design" to begin with.
>>720721432>Except Gacha has it all in a horrible mix of microtransaction hell with multiple timegates on everythingAnd Pokemon doesnt?
>>720720979>most other rpgs at least try new things and over half the designs arent objectively dogshit.LOL
>>720709229Plus $20 NSO for the kalos starter megas
>>720721543Maybe for the timegated stuff for them to introduce a pokemon, old or new into the game as an event, but that is hardly the same as limiting how much you can play due to the game 'demanding you pay more to continue or wait 24 hours'.But they are not charging you extra money for it that you have to buy in an ingame shop.So not really, Gacha has defined itself in a very specific way after all.
>>720709479>Why does it just have things sticking out of its ears?
>>720720979>most other rpgs at least try new thingsI said elaborate, saying "oh they do indiscriminate new things" isn't elaborating, examples are needed. That said it's not like you have any examples, a lot of them have seen stuck in their ways for over a decade now take final fantasy for instance, a series that used to be about innovation for better or four worse is now just a generic action adventure hack and slash button masher. That said it's not like Pokemon doesn't but peooke write them off as gimmicks for some reason.>half the designs arent objectively dogshit. Opinion, aka not objective.This is what I mean, you clearly don't care about video games seeing as you have absolutely zero standards.
>>720720673The point is that one of these companoes set industry standards, they just follow the trends. The ones who do are, or were the big 3, with Nintendo being one of them, so yes when Nintendo does it it's actually worse.
>>720722037So basically you're using a reversed rules for me but not for me logic purely to shitpost about Nintendo who aren't even doing day one dlc since the dlc releases next year.
>>720722016I fucking swear, ever since they put AI in the keyboard I've been making way more mistakes.
>>720710395wow, I wonder what other games announced dlc before they were released
>>720720254>>720721854Sorry but I'm not seeing them
>>720709229unironically cry harder 3rdworlder-kun.
One is a Raichu with pikachu features and the other is a Pikachu with Raichu features, it is shit,
>>720722218
>>720711901They are Johto balls and Game Freak has been incredibly stingy with them since SM. They probably actually intend for this to actually look like a good deal.
>>720723310>and Game Freak has been incredibly stingy with them since SMNo? You can get them from the item machine in SS and SV.
>>720717252Reminder that Palworld was revealed in December 2020
>>720710548Riachu x should have 4 fangs. Two top and two bottom. Raichu Y should have 3 fangs two top and 1 bottom.
>>720717046>it was revealed February last year>Palworld was revealed during VGA 2020
>>720722881>it is peakyes, they are.
>>720723725It was revealed E3 2021 after PLA which was February the same year
This thing looks like a Deviantart OC.
>>720723725>>720723995Imagine unironically samefagging just to suck corporate cock.
>>720724032>E3 2021Nope. That was their last and showcased no games other than BLM Riot simulators. It was a shitshow to its finest.
With all the heat Nintendos been getting, you'd think they wouldn't put out an 80 dollar pokemon game with pre game dlc
>>720723725>>720723995>>720724032>>720724121>>720724160Imagine Snoyfags and Nintendies fighting over a 1year gap of some shit. Always amusing.
>>720723409The thing is at least in BDSP you had no way to get them in that game without the preorder so if you had balltism and didn’t preorder “sucks to suck”
>>720724160This post aged before you posted it, holy shit.
Why do modern pokemon look like chinese knock off trash?
>>720724697Who cares about BDSP? It wasn't even made by GF.
>>720719124>>720719824I don't need a 500 dollar console to play an 80 dollar game with a 30 dollar dlc not even counting that it's a pokemon game so it's gonna be broken, uplayable, ugly dogshit.
>>720724838Incompetent yet unexperienced staff. Swoosh was made on Unity and even then it was exectuted like a college project.
>>720724791I guess that would be... a Time Stranger.
>>720713930Removing Z-Moves was the greatest thing GF has done. Tera and Mega are the only good gimmicks.
>>720725240CARLOOOOS!
>>720715640I love seeing Sword of Mana in these comparisons because the game is complete dogshit and any sane person would rather play the GBA Pokemon games a dozen times over. Subhumans making these comparisons never play the actual games.
>>720725413I mean, it's always like that. As much as people shit on pokemon for the graphics there's not really a better monster tamer.
>>720724838>Why do modern pokemon look like chinese knock off trash?>gen 2>modern
>>720725240I hate how they refuse to make a better combat system for the fucking Digimon rpgs I've ALREADY PLAYED CS AND HM I DON'T NEED TS TO BE THE SAME FUCKING THING AGAIN AAAAAAAAAAThe Data -> Vaccine -> Virus damage triangle spoils the games so hard for me.
>>720725413>because the game is complete dogshitOkay? Being a dogshit game doesn't stop it from looking good for a GBA game, unlike Pokemon, which was the point of the picture.
>>720725898It doesn't matter what a game looks like at the end of the day. Games are an interactive medium and that should be the ultimate focus.That's why AAA games are so shit but you can still have fun with a pokemon game.
>>720726276Nah.Pokemon games have been trash for 20 years.
>just make....TWO tales!!Absolute State of Chudtendo
>>720727261Case in point.
