Yep. it's Pokémon Waves for me.
>Marketing thread
first time I cnat decide because neither theme is appealingI guess Ill grab whatever version is less popular
>>741359676Why did Nintendo betray DEI. They look to female and male coded.
>>741359676it's so sad that pokemon will never get good trainer design again in favor of shitty bland dolls for the sake of personalization
>>741360269Yeah, it sucks.Calem, Serena, and Elio were the last good MC trainers (even if their game sucked) and it's all been downhill since.
>>741360269>posting the ugly ass emerald outift
>>741361445both are good
>>741361501no, orange and green is ugly

What locale is the region based on? Are we finally getting a Florida region with manchineel and chigger Pokemon? Is this the legendary?: https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2024/12/06/old-hitler-has-this-monstrous-florida-shark-terrorized-the-gulf-since-wwii/
>>741362208its Indonesia bro
>>741359676wave-chan my belovedI hope they bring back good looking clothes since they're abandoning the Xe/Xim body type mechanics
>>741362304Oh, okay. But IF there was a game in a Florida region, what would you want to see in it?
>>741362208It's SEA so at most you may get the child trafficker pokemon
Going with Wind because I can tell it’s the boy version and the boy version always is better
>>741359872>>741359676>>741354778
>>741362647why would I go from one marketing thread to another?
>>741359968youre kidding, this is the first time im thinking about getting a pokemon game since yellow because the themes are so good. problem is i cant decide which one i want
>>741362992You're a paid shill though so nobody cares what you think.
>>741360269It's really annoying since XY had good MCs and it still has the best customization, their 'fits clear nupokemon.
>>741363082but im not, just an anon who hasn't played pokemon in 20+ years but loves sailing and flying
>>741361550U wot m8?
>>741363241vegeta if he was left in the sun for 10 years isn't really proving otherwise
>>741359676I already know I'll be playing as the girl and admire those tights. Hope they give some customization options for makeup and hair too.
>>741360187>betray DEI>girls still can't wear skirts>"Type A/B" character selector
>>741360269I'd rather have the customizable trainer to be honest, even if it means the protags will constantly be shown wearing bland default shit i'll never actually wear ingame
>>741359676>lust provoking image
>>741362489Would rather have a different region of the US than that shithole.
>>741359676no French hot couture clothes no buy
>>>/vp/
>>741363474Hey if you think the character on the left is a girl, more power to you sister. Fight those norms.
>>741359676>poke protag female in fullbody wet suitthe porn is gonna be insane
>>741363803That doesn't answer the question.
>>741363803Most of the US is way worse than Florida, you’re just jealous.
Imagine
>>741364435Thank you for sticking up for me but this still doesn't really answer what I asked in the first place.
>>741359676>only difference is the hat and backpacklazy fucks
>>741359676Really depends on the mons, got Scarlet because of the Past Paradoxes and Armarouge.
>>741364435I don't like it because of how it is. I'm not jealous of it.
>>741363474damn. how fucking long has it been since a pokemon protagonist came with a skirt?
>>741359676for me it will be the one that brings more female gym leaders/npcs. also the one that actually have mons I like more.
>>741362750>>741356397Aniimo > Pokemon
>>741360269and that's a good thing!
>>741360269Play Aniimo instead >>741356397
>>741359676PURE SEXO
>>741367528I want to aggressively hit on her at checkout while she rings up my items knowing she hates it
>battle animations still forced>exp share still forced>shift still forcedYeah...
>>741367863Nohttps://i.4cdn.org/v/1781790260513602.png
>>741368206unironically cope and seethe harder.
>>741368206>battle animations still forcedHaven't played a game since gen 6, can you really not switch those off any more?
>>741368387yes.
Those fat boat sombreros look so fucking stupid wtf man make it some aerodynamic vs water repellent or something, what is that slopAlso those are the MCs right? Why are they so mundanely plain
>>741359676the cap is so much less stupid-looking than the cowboy hat
>>741368452they're 3d now, how would you.
>>741368452No because in gen 9 there’s coop and battles take place in the world map, they probably didn’t want to fuck around with making syncing and stuff work properly
>>741360269I dunno man bodysuit girl is pretty hot
howdy, my name's kenichi smith and I'll be a pokemon master
>>741359676Is that boy wearing a Walmart uniform?
>>741368587because they just give you barbie dolls to dress up now, haven't a decent MC since sword/shield, not counting Arceus.
The "guy" just needs eyelashes or more defined edge eyebrows and he's instantly full on girl, fucking fruitcake faggot
>>741359676I like the waves fit more, but I'm expecting at least some personalization that doesn't suck ass like zamn, but at this point I have zero hope for gamefreak to not do another either no customization like scarlet/violet or basically only female clothes like zamn, and not very good ones at that.
>>741368528No.Aniimo is better
>>741368801aniimomons just look like blobs, why can't these pokemon clones do the actual monsters well...
I love Pokemon so fucking much
>>741368918https://youtu.be/XHPS09hP7m4?si=MqJP0Pd1bceHr__CAniimo (free) >>> Pokémon ($90 + tax)
>>741359676OH BOY I CAN'T WAIT TO PAY $70 FOR GAMECUBE GRAPHICS AND LESS FEATURES THAN A DS GAME
Ah great the pedophiles are here
>>741369049> AND LESS FEATURES THAN Aniimo that’s free to play & available on every device
>>741369040alright but the aminomons still look like shit
>>741369184Pokemon has shit graphics and gameplay for $100 on a shitty switch 2
>>741368739Why what's the point, is it that much harder to make 2 more good character designs? I don't think anyone'd be weirded out once you enter the game that you can pick hairstyles and change your clothes over time. But having a good starter would be great too.Is it just to not overshadow the customizable stuff because it's going to be DLC/cash shop bait? Please say I'm wrong on that.
>>741369825They want little girls to buy in and little girls like to play dress up. It also happens to cover grown women and men who want to be little girls too.
>>741364448wet suit sexo
>>741370010I don't want to be a little girl. But the boys have looked so faggy since like 4th gen I just never picked them again from that point... why aren't they cool anymore. AT LEAST I get to see a cute girl I guess. I'd much prefer her be my rival though and see her that way instead.
>>741368943Imagine the tanlines
>>741368943things this sexy were not meant to exist
>>741368943Imagine the sweat that comes out when she takes the suit off
>>741369825The character designs are fine it’s just>oooga booga old good new badAutism
>>741361445fuck this shit for trying to be a blatant red and blue reboot. emerald is where its at. oras repeated the same mistake.
>>741371203wiwa is an improvement but ZA and SV MCs sucked, androgynous and boring.
The version I select for my male playthrough is going to entirely depend on any changes to gym leaders or other NPCs. I like having a yuri adventure on my second playthrough for the version exclusives.
>>741371489I don't see what that has to do with the outfit being ugly
>>7413596760 fucking skin allowed...
>>741359676Winds is for plebs too cowardly to enjoy Hoenn.
>>741371646the ruby and sapphire outfits just reuse the pirate look of the gameboy TCG protagonists and didn't even fucking try to make anything original. the free flow style of the emerald outfits that aren't as stuffy are so much better and make more sense.
>>741372005They look nothing alike, take your meds.
Hahaha they have those chink wetsuits on looking like complete dorks
>>741372112I don't care about your anime may obsession it has literally no relevance to the games
>>741371986I'm all-in on waves. First thing I'm gonna do is dive in the ocean and catch everything I can find.
Which one are you going to choose?
>>741372289kill yourself
>>741372005I always forget the degree to which Genwunners are insanely fucking autistic about stupid bullshit literally nobody gives a fuck about I have never even seen this art
>>741372240>literal R/S stock art isn't game relevantGenuinely what are you talking about? Trolling has to make at least some kind of sense if you want to upset people.
>>741372349Why?
>>741371986If IGN doesn’t give Waves a 7.8 and Wind the actual score I’m gonna be very cross
>>741359676both outfits look ugly and i really hope the customization is better than scat vomitbut i'm sure i'm not gonna like the game anywaythe multi region mmo sounds interesting
>>741372301>Dive in>gamefreakIM 90% sure they're not animating a diving animation for this game, best you're getting is a quick cut to black cutscene or if were generous a wavey cutscene with waves (No pun intended) into a water area intermission
>>741360269character designs have been bland shit since xy because of trainer customizationsad really
>>741372352>noooo stop calling out gamefreak on their sloppy gen 3 red and blue replacement and physical special split shenanigans they let down all the environmental artists that made the game with their bullshit. anyway, you can let that generation rest now.
>>741364448they're obviously not gonna let you remove that horrendously ugly bag, cap and shirt+shortsthere'll be some ugly color variant you'll be forced to wear at all timesso close, the swimsuit looks good, but the other shit ruins the design
>>741372723I'm not expecting much, I just want to explore and catch pokemon.
>>741372937That stuff has ALWAYS been changeable. The thing that might be non negotiable is the wetsuit because it’s needed to go underwater and a convenient excuse to not allow skin
>>741359676I got to see box legendaries, and exclusives before I make a decision
>>741368918you're replying to some butthurt pokefag who is intentionally falseflagging as shill for an upcoming monster tamer "competitor"this happens literally every single time some new game comes out and feels similar to a nintendo ip
>>741359676Wi's cowgirl hat for me. The blue wa cap just looks like the dodo cap from acnh.
>>741373020scarlet violet was way too restrictingi'm hoping the customization isn't as badlza was an improvement sure, but i'm not get my hopes up for a non-legends post scat vomit game
>>741372440the emerald sleeveless design is a clear reference to green (shocker), and that already makes it better than the ruby and sapphire "unoriginal" designs, at least with the recycling they were trying something new. emerald 1, leaf 1, fire 0, ruby 0, sapphire 0. *mic drop*
>>741372723it already showed off a black fade before getting under wateri'm glad to see underwater exploration is back and the entire trailer was decent and of acceptable quality, but i know gamefreak will cut corners
>>741373084>The falseflaggers are sabotaging some chinese bootleg nobody has ever heard of beforeplease open a window man breathe some fresh air
>falseflagger immediately felt called outkek
my predictions for the mmo "project seed":>kanto, johto, hoenn, sinnoh, kitakami, spin off regions, plus multiple new regions for the rest of japan that hasn't been covered yet>new mons, regional forms>likely no gimmicks>completely redesigned regions, not grid-style but organic terrain>seamless traversal between regions, with intermission areas similar to genshin impact's nations>could be turn based or action like za, anything is possible here>could be f2p like unite, champions, etc with optional monetization>major focus on fomo, fomo events, fomo battle passes, cosmetics, etc>could introduce customization for pokemon as well>direct connectivity with home, but will probably not focus on pvp>could be heavily pve co opthis releasing probably in 2029 or later gives me hope that it's a massive project
>>741359676waves 100%the cowboy hats look gay as fuck
>>741373084Cause Pokemon sucks >>>/vmg/2063511
I just found out that the team that did BotW and TotK are working on WW with GF
>>741367528All the women at my Walmart are well past retirement age and are working the checkouts. They wont even say hello to the customers or anything. They bitter self loathing hags they need to be fired.
>>741359676For me, it's Winds girl and Waves guy.
>>741359676When are they going to stop designing pokemon trainers that look like hardcore joggers
>>741374398Anyone happy to be working at walmart is probably a serial killer. Those people have the correct disposition for being trapped in soul sucking retail jobs.
>>741363139Do tendies really think they're fooling anyone?You bought every pokemon game. All of them.
>>741372787xy designs were great
This has the potential to be the most erotic pokemon game since SM, hopefully the other girls are as good as the MC
>>741372342probably the dog, i expect too many nuwaters is the dex to pick the sexlizard
>>741359676>"I'm going to summon a pokegod to destroy the world using tidal waves!" This is just Team Aqua again
>>741366890shield, retard
>>741359676They really do look like they're wearing some Walmart hats in the Waves version.
>>741375762most of XY gym leaders are terrible, also the two retards of the friend group are horrid (the fat idiot and the coconut head)
>>741372787sumo and ss were fine, ball dropped in gen 9
>>741372342Pombon for now, but subject to change.
>>741359676I would have to buy a Switch 2. That is fucking crazy. I have a Meta Quest 3. Practically all the officially released games are piratable at the click of a few mouth buttons.This thread...while I shall peruse...is to convince me to...ughh..I just...I...I...just can't...I just can't do it! I don't want a Switch 2!
>>741374398M8, they're past retiring age and still have to work customer service. You'd be miserable too
>>741359676>Waves goodbye to the franchiseYep.
>>741376615the post said because of trainer customization, so i assumed it was talking about the trainers you can customize.also who cares about boys, shauna is hot and viola and valerie are hot enough
>>741363975>>741372289>VP!!>VP!!WAAAHHH! JANNY SAVE ME!!!
>>741372342the dog unless the water one is sexy, in a erotic manner. the bird might be flying type which will nerf them in grass terrain
>>741377450they shove them in your face without giving them good quirks like shauna
>>741377116salazzle is such a babe
>>741376116>shield, retardIts been several years, and almost a decade since sword and shield came out.What the fuck went wrong since then? Its been so bad.
>>741379041gosh two whole games without a skirt, the west is fucking doomed
>>741379217I wasn't talking about the skirts, I was talking about how the games fucking sucked since then.
>>741379217the real problem is that they replaced them with ugly ass skorts
>>741359676Would it kill them to design MCs that don't look like bland 6 year olds?
>>741380348Seems fitting for a game for six year olds.
>>741372005>bandana>pirate lookOh no, it's retarded.
You would literally die from walking around a tropical island while wearing a wetsuit 24/7
>>741380932they are Rotom air conditioned
>>741359676Remove Fairy Type from the Game. Pokemon became Lame and Gay after Gamefreak started catering hard to fags and women. You can legit crossdress little boys in Pokemon Champions its actually kinda sickening when you think about it. Who asked for this? You get ZERO customization options but TPC had to make sure you could paint makeup on little boys. Everything Before X/Y has a SOUL. Everything after designed with the FAGGOT FAIRY TYPE is Nu-Pokemon made for Trannies and fags, Primarina aka TRANNYRINA is the living embodiment of a Tranny Pokemon its 87% Male. Same with Manscarada.
>>741380514>hasnt seen pokemon Champions
>>741381541Actually obsessed
>>741363474>>741364118Its funny because DEI has become such a nothing word that you can betray it and be it at the same time. Now I get to watch a chud faggot defend type a type b.
>>741372342bro these are all melding together for me with like the last 2 generations why are these starters so ass and samey now
>>741381541>Dragon fuckers are still crying to this dayLove to see it.
>>741366890Shield. Also this girl will 100% have a skirt clothing option because the swimsuit prevents upskirts
>>741382627>I lost and all my studios are closing but I get to bitch about le chuds online
>>741380932just take a dip once in a while
>>741374369Ideally it's just getting input on area design and it's strict and limited help from them, especially from the music department. Those games are so shit but they would be able to be helpful if someone was directing the retarded grugs on the few things they're good at and implementing them in the game.
>>741381541Make BUG(ods) super effective against fairy, ‘nuff said.
>>741382783>Dragon made Pokemon Relevant and sent everyone into hysteria>Fairy type noted the downfall, Digimon and Palworld soon to eclipse nowNow all the Pokemon designs look like Palworld rejects kek Dragon Type was pokemons identity, when it was about boys wandering off and going on adventures, not any of this fag shit
>>741382846You can literally crossdress in Pokemon Champions.
>>741380932they're not wetsuits it's just tight underarmor stuff
>>741359676>How do we show characters in wetsuits and not show body outlines? >Just put clothes on top!>But isn't the standard trainer outfit meant for comfortable travel? Won't they be hot in a clingy black wetsuit? It doesn't make sense.>The game is rated E, okay?
>>741383220hotthey should force players to equip girl clothes when they lose a battle
>>741381541GVRY OVK TRVKETOTAL NEW SOI NEWTROON DEATH
>>741383463>fags are biggest goycattle consumers Letting everyone know this is exactly the type of pokemon "fan" Gamefreak knows it can keep shoveling shit to because they will eat it up btw this is who TPC caters to
>>741383884I haven't played since oras, actually. I just had a cool idea and wanted to share. Keep seething at shadows though it's amusing.
>>741359676>Leggings underneath shorts>Long sleeve shirt underneath t-shirtIs this an Asian thing to avoid getting sunburn?
>>741384053its a wetsuit you know cause water
>>741384053it's an athletic get up rather than that, this should be common knowledge
>>741384015Nice backpedal flaming homo, but you and your ilk are responsible for the downfall of yet another beloved franchise. Just how do you manage to do it everytime? You guys' track record is impeccable.
>>741381541Based. Fairyfags get the rope
>>741360269She's 10
>>741384240>Wearing clothes over a wetsuitThat's even more retarded
>>741374252> 4 replies

O can't play Pokémon without exp share anymore.
Huh.
>>741374151
>>741366890You know May, Crystal, or Hilda didn't wear skirts either, dumbass? Stop acting like every pokegirl did.
>>741359676Imagine the swimming animation
>>741387935I'm imagining it>screen fades to black>splashing noise>"you swam!"
>>741359872why would pokemon even need to do gorilla marketing? they could announce today that this game comes out tomorrow and it would sell just as well regardless.
>>741376190they are. the plot of wind/waves is actually going to be about corporate takeover of their small island home, with waves having you play on the side of the poke-walmart.
>>741383185>Now all the Pokemon designs look like Palworld rejects kekYou cannot prove this without looking like a retard>when it was about boys wandering off and going on adventuresSo gen 3? Move on, grandpa.
>>741360269And they seem to be getting into the habit of gutting the customization to fit the setting or story or whatever.It's just disguised censorship at the end of the day.
>>741372793I will always appreciate an autistic weirdo like you over apathetic faggots like the ones replying to you
>le wetsuit which covers le whole body is SEXO~le sigh.
>>741390741Yeah man, people who actively prevent discussion of games because Sonic’s arms aren’t blue definitely need more of those
>>741385117They realized they achieved perfection with mizuki
>>741359676soulless slop
>>741385117Yes, pokemon protags since gen 6 have been generic fucks so you can dress them at your liking, also japs look all the same.
>>741390907yeah I hate niche fetish autists just like the foot faggot and the pubes faggot, someone needs to kill these retards or cut their hands off already. The wetsuit is worthless with fucking clothes on and just looks like athletic wear.
>>741391545Pretty long winded way to say you're gay and suck cocks

>>741394305He's only a shota in fanart, and the full body wetsuit is not a good thing as it prevents seeing bellybutton. Gen 7 boy had his swimwear with bellybutton visible and I fear the wetsuit will be mandatory in WiWa regardless of other customizations

>>741404709I was telling myself that but then gen 4 came along. No way I'm choosing anything inspired by the Fr*nch as MY starter.
>>741403691That certainly correlates with shitholes.

>>741404505For me it's the sexy water gecko thing. I want to deepthroat his hemipenis
>>741360269Female trainers were still fine up until Gen 8. Gen 9 was where they completely dropped the ball
I hope Gecqua evolves into a cute waifumon instead of gayshit like Quaquaval.
>>741405841Yeah. We need another Primarina.
>>741359676Why do they keep making double versions?
