Looks like pixelart

Some things were scrapped though, like the raisable legendary and the procedurally generated islands
>>732327485>Scrap the only two interesting thingsOf coarse
>>732327237Cobblemon will have more features than this phone game.
>>732327543And the "every rideable Pokémon" thing was... Let's say, reimagined.
grok is this real
Hopefully we finally get a special edition switch 2 for this in nice colors.

Pokemon Wind Waker?
inb4 missing pokemon
>>732327237i don't care about pokemon
>>732327237>SEAmonkey settinggrim
>>732327237>Every Pokémon can be ridden or touchedLmao no. We saw the rotom scooter leak.
>>732327456Too much bullshit, this must be a gym leader or an important character.
>>732327418Those mountains look terrible, gamefreak is absolutely dogshit at modeling terrain
>sea settingLITERAL TRASHMON CHADS WE ARE SO BACK
>>732327418I imagine each island is going to be as 'linear' as they look.
How do people still have hope for this IP?
>>732329930you can if you are a fucking retard
>>732327609heh...does it let me ''ride'' Gardevoir?
>>732329930The IP itself is still mostly fine, they just need to give the games to someone that's not Gamefreak.
>>732327237The budget always gets me, how can Game Freak & TPC be so fucking jewish? lmao
Each new Pokémon generation is just an expansion pack for the following things:1. Porn2. Fanfictions3. FangamesThe actual games are good for a laugh, I suppose.
>>732331486Pokemon design took a nosedive in Gen V and only got worse
>>732331567if you could spend 100 million to make a great game that would sell incredibly well or you could spend 19 million to make a bad game that would sell even better somehowwhich one would you choose
>>732327237>Indonesia*mario dies SFX*
Why do they insist on making Pokemon some sandbox survival game? Just make a traditional monster catching RPG, but actually good
>>732327237Graphics too good for pokemon standard. Fake and gay
>>732333367>Why do they insist on making Pokemon some sandbox survival game?Palworld utterly mindbroke GameFreak.
>>732336152>Yokai and backlash to BW, despite BW doing well, mindrapes Masuda in the early 2010s>Palworld and backlash to SV, despite SV doing very well, mindrapes his successor in the 2020sAlways gives me a hearty kek
>>732336465>Yokai and backlash to BWWhat's Yokai referring to?
>>732327237This sounds somewhat interesting, the kind of game I'd imagine for Pokémon back during Gen 1/2. Like Survival Kids with Pokémon. But it's probably fake.>>732336691Probably Yokai Watch, whichever one was out around that time.
Shame. This sounds like a lot of what I wanted out of a fully realized console pokemon game, but that budgets shows it's gonna be more of the same shit. Not buyin, not even piratin.
>>732336691Yokai Watch. The first one came out around the same time as BW in Japan and for a short while overtook Pokemon as the go-to franchise for kids. This combined with the backlash in the west due to BW not allowing use of old Pokemon until after the postgame (with the exception of the event Shiny Johto Beasts and event Celebi for Zoroark and Zorua respectively) by people who probably weren’t going to play BW anyway has been argued as being a factor to why so much Kanto pandering from XY onwards occurred.
>>732331775Aloola has one of the best 'dex ever so no.
