Here's a new feature that nobody likes or cares about. We will put it in every city in the game. We will also bring it to the next generation.
>>56098901I like contests and doesn’t Emerald swap some with Battle Tents?>We will also bring it to the next generation.and that’s a good thing
>>56098907>I like contestsHoly tranny. YNBAW, also 41%.
>OP stood up and clapped when contests got replaced by this
>>56098907>and that's a good thingGen 4 contests were trash though. And yeah Emerald has the Battle Tent in Verdanturf, Fallarbor, and Slateport.>>56098921Tell me you're a faggot with no friends without telling me you're a faggot with no friends. Gen 3 contests were peak kino.
>pokemon are friends and partners in life! we don't just use them for battling>except the games just let you experience the world of pokemon by battling oopscontests are a great area for lesser known/battle focused pokemon to shine, and it's a shame it's not focused on more. middle evo's, shitmon, etc would thrive
>>56098942>Gen 4 contests were trash though.contests were always trash
>>56098901Lol just use a Claydol
>>56098946>contests are a great area for lesser known/battle focused pokemon to shine, and it's a shame it's not focused on more. middle evo's, shitmon, etc would thriveImagine Pokémon having Base Stats for Pokémon Contests.If only there was a Pokémon Contest focussed side series in which Pokémon Contests are as in-depth as Pokémon Battles. A contest metagame sounds fun.
Feels like a concept the anime staff came up with to give the girls something to do, and Game Freak decided to put it in the game too
>>56098901>We will put it in every city in the gameThey were supposed to be the equivalent of gyms and so they appeared in towns/cities that didn't have a gymBy Emerald they realised this was unnecessary and replaced most of them with Battle facilities, although I feel it was a mistake to not have Contests available before Lilycove
They shouldve had an elite 4 contest as a secondary optional endgoal to get while becoming a pokemon champion
Is there any reward that isn't a ribbon or aesthesic related for doing contests/musicals? I know ORAS gives you cosplay Pikachu after the first contest and you need to beat Lisia for Lucarionite.
>>56099255RSE had unlimited Luxury Balls for winning Master Rank with a Pokemon that already has the ribbon.
>>56098907emerald replaced all of then with battle tents except the one in lilycove and shoved all the contests in that building
>>56098901It was aimed at girls. We liked it. It was cute.
I wish people would stop saying contests are for girls. I blame gen 4 and the anime.
>>56098946It's an RPGBattling and exploring is the point
>>56098942You are [ ]-ly confused
>>56101915>esl logic
Why are contest haters always obsessed with trannies?
>>56098932i love when gameplay is replaced by cutscenes
>>56098932>knight oshowatt, king zoroark, princess angel victinisoul
>>56101915That's fine. Contests don't need to be too big of a deal in the main games. But what that anon said is right.Pokémon are used for more than just Pokémon Battles and Pokémon Contests are a good example of that. Which is one good reason why to have more for us to do with our Pokémon in the main games besides battles. That can still be the case while still having battles be the main thing. It would be good to get more side games not focussed on battles and instead on other stuff for us to do with our Pokémon.
>>56098901They literally said it was a way for Pokémon that aren't good at battling to have something they can do well. If nothing else it was a fun side mode.
>>56098901AhemLet's see your Master Ribbons and paintingsSome pokemon were designed to dominate contests, like Delcatty. Not all pokemon should be battle-focused
>>56100807>girlsJapan has a huge pet contest scene. It was aimed at that crowd.
>>56098921get a load of this retard
>>56098901Ribbonlet detected, St Peter will never let you in at the pearly gates of the Resort Area Ribbon Syndicate. I bet you couldn't even afford the Gorgeous Royal Ribbon for your favourite mons. Have fun getting bullied out of the pokemon center with your mere effort ribbon and regional champion ribbons.
>>56101915I thought the point of a RPG was the RP.
>>56098901lmao dis nigga doesn't even have an art exhibit
>>56103003This is why I miss it... Mightyena sucks ass in battle bro I just wanna use it in other things...
>>56104190That's not how JRPGs work, despite the name.
>pokemon fans are now complaining that features are being kept across generations
>>56098901contests were missed potential. I like that they give you a reason to use pokemon that aren't necessarily great for battling. they just needed slightly deeper mechanics and better rewards. it could have been fleshed out to be an alternative path to the gym quest.
>>56105498The idea of making it an alternate path is a good one. Gen 9 sort of has multiple paths but not really.
>>56098921>tranny tranny tranny tranny And retards still will tell 4chan isn't mindbroken
>>56099050How would smogon ruin contests?
contests are trans-coded gameplay
>>56106793gen 9 has multiple paths, but you're required to do all of them so there are no alternatives
>>56098901Weak bait, you should complain about too much water while you're at it
>>56100807Only the dress up shit in gen 4. Gen 3 contests are high T
>>56107211Exactly.I think it would be good to be able to choose to go through a game doing the usual Gym challenge or Pokémon Contests or so on. But I don't think they want to do that since that would mean they are putting in more work for people to experience less of what they made. Which is why I'm guessing they ultimately make you do all the paths in gen 9.
>>56106839Depends on what kind of contests you mean. If you mean with contests as they are now then one thing is for sure. Smeargle is getting banned.
