my guess is they cut this one because "bird that wears bones" is a little too similar in concept to Vullaby/Mandibuzz.
it's a shame though, I like these ones better and the text seems to imply they might have been fire type which is interesting.

it's cool to be vindicated about Southern Kalos after all these years. but honestly, people are acting like half the game got chopped off the day before release, when in reality these areas were probably never anything more than some lines on a map in the very early stages of planning. I don't think XY discussion is going to recover from this for a long time. but, still neat to see.

Anon XY was the first game to have 3D models. I'm talking about them needing to provide 3D models for every single Pokémon. That took up a large amount of their time.

I have mixed feelings about Alola. I think the dex is fantastic, but the games themselves are dogshit.

Pokédex 3D Pro used the same models as XY, just with different textures/shaders/etc. Similar to how Sword/Shield used the same ones too, just upscaled and updated. Basically, they designed all the 3D models, realized "hey, we could probably release this as a standalone", released Pokédex 3D Pro for the 3DS for $15, then updated the models for XY's engine.

Rhyhorn Race (tentative)

▼ Theme: Bonds with Pokémon (Rhyhorn)

▼ Interactivity between player and Rhyhorn.
Can participate with your own Rhyhorn.

▼ Players climb onto Rhyhorn's back and ride it. Six of them compete.

▼ Use the analog stick to control direction and the A button to accelerate.
Use the analog stick to determine direction, and the A button to gradually accelerate (imagine an excited Rhyhorn rushing forward).
As Rhyhorn turns red as it runs, it becomes harder to control. Also compatible with the D-pad.

▼ Brake with the B button.
Press the B button to slow down.
As its speed decreases, it becomes easier to control.

▼ Synchronization rate
By following what Rhyhorn wants to do, the player can increase the synchronization rate and run faster.
A blurry icon appears above Rhyhorn's head, and within that icon, Rhyhorn can be angry or calm.
The player is also notified by a live message. The player responds to this.
Control Rhyhorn while sensing its mood.
* If it is angry (hard to control), pull the reins, if it is calm, destroy the rocks to inspire it...

▼ If the synchronization rate is high, Rhyhorn's speech bubble will become a heart mark.
It is fast and can be controlled properly.

▼ Live commentary of the race
A message will appear while running, providing a live commentary. The player can make a decision based on the live commentary.
"(If it turns red) It seems to have forgotten itself!"
"(If it remains gray) It seems to be unsatisfied!"
"It looks like it used a move!"
* If you synchronize with Rhyhorn, your synchronization rate will increase. It will be easier to control. It will be faster.

▼ Course image
Rather than a typical race course, the race takes place in a normal area that looks like Violet Forest has been turned into a race course.
The image is that you are racing through the forest.
The road is wider than in other normal racing games.

Makes me sad, Gen 6 was what made me drop this series until SV, even at the time it felt like such a stripped-down game.

>>
>>56671843
They can just sue them for stealing their property, you can't "reuse" copyrighted designs.
>>
>>56671970
I'm starting to think that the breakneck release schedule GF has is the real cause of Pokemon's 'downfall'. the fact that they hold themselves to release an entire new generation every 3 years since BW is just insane, it's virtually impossible to build a complete and ambitious game from the ground up in that time, each time with a new setting, cast of 100+ characters & monsters, new lore etc.
you can tell that sometimes there is real passion behind some of the ideas but they never give themselves the time to fully realize them before they have to throw it all out and start over from scratch to meet the next deadline.
this franchise would benefit hugely from having a release window of 5-6 years or even more between major release, like most other major Nintendo franchises have. GF still might be deeply flawed devs but I genuinely would like to see what they could accomplish if they were just given more time to focus on a single game.
>>
>>56672034
New world, lore, characters, etc. isn't necessarily impossible. They could probably do it if they simply went back to iterative sequels that build on the game preceding. But instead, they seemingly throw out the entire map design framework after every gen, along with the character design principles, and start over from zero.

A game that were designed on a technical level as SWSH 2 (with the asset reuse that implies) could easily have taken less time and resources than SV, and come out more polished than either SWSH or SV due to greater familiarity with the overall framework.

See i prefer this. The mustache is silly but the tail is such a good idea. (IDK why the beta deisnger gave all the Megas weak chins besides charizard.) Mega Blastoise playing off of Wartortle's dex entries is such a good idea because Blastoise himself is such a departure from the line design wise. He completely drops the squirrel and hair stuff for canons.

I always knew SM was the death knell of the franchise. XY was deeply flawed, but I always felt at the time like it was just a misstep, there was still a feeling that things could get back on track and improve. the game disappointed me, and yet I was still optimistic for the franchise at large.
with SM, I knew there was no going back. that the series was now irreversibly on a downward trend, and that it wasn't just a hiccup. and so far, I've been proven right. I feel like it was a real junction point for the series. there was an opportunity to learn from the mistakes of XY and recover the trajectory of the franchise, but instead they doubled down on everything that went wrong just to rush a new gen out for the anniversary. and I don't think they've ever found their footing again, or will.

crazy headcannon. anyways got any dex entries to back that up? is it ever animated like a balloon in a floaty bouncy squishy way?

I mean, they're both flamingos, the parallels are pretty obvious and I think you do understand that. I'll concede to you that Flamigo is based on a balloon as well, but let's be honest, for the vast majority of people I'm sure that's the secondary association after it being a flamingo. and the balloon concept doesn't really interact with any other aspect of the Pokemon. it's not reflected in the typing, or the moves as far as I know, doesn't have any unique behaviours or gimmicks relating to the fact that it's a balloon. Flamigo could easily be replaced by any kind of Flamingo design and not lose anything meaningful, the balloon animal concept would be better off being used for a Pokemon that actually does something creative with being a balloon beyond just "it's a balloon because it is lol"

it feels obvious now that you point it out. now Im just both mad and sad at the missed potential of doing anything funny with that gimmick. again the way its shaded in game doesnt look reflective like a balloon, it cant blow out air to fly faster, its not mentioned to use it to float on water like buizel or anything cool like that. it really feels more like an afterthought sadly

I sort of want to believe this, but a huge part of Flamigo is the fact that it's a synchonised dancer, not just based on it's pokedex lore, but also it's ability too. What's boxing got to do with that? Feels like a very confused pokemon design despite it's simple appearance.

the synchrony thing is related to the animal rather than the object. When they mate, the males do a little "dance" all together. That's hwo they find a grilfriend. Flamigo's ability Costar is also a reference to this.

I could see them using the beta design as a regional variant.

Sirfetched makes sense in his current design because it is a Galarian leek, right? It would be so easy for them to make him change evos based on regional leeks.

If we ever get a legends around johto I could see them giving sirfetched a samurai look similar to that old one.

The design notes do confirm that they did in fact count Megas as new Pokemon, btw. Which makes sense considering Megas take virtually the same amount of work to implement as brand new Pokemon.

They planned 70 new species and 30 Megas for 100 new Pokemon total. We got slightly more than that with 102 (72 Pokemon + 30 Megas)
