Alright. Friday is almost here. We're about to see Gen 10 for the first time, it likely won't be much but it's still something to look forward to.Let’s keep it simple:What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?What kind starters are you hoping for?And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?It will be fun to come back here and look at what people expected and compare it to what we got.
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I hated everything except area 0>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?I think they are make a full teaser because of the existing leaks>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?A good game.
I wish they would let us change the pokeball a pokemon lives in.. maybe one day
>>58962000Sus
TND!
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?hated most of the new designs as they all looked like basic shapes (spidops) or looked like they lacked all textures (lady caca ostrich), graphics were too damn muted and textures repeated themselves like wallpaper, super glitchy as all fuck. loved the sense of scale, adventure wasn't cringe, NPCs were alright, dlcs were super fun. unironicallly spent hundreds of hours dicking around.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?absolutely nothing but shitposting and somehow something worse than we all collectively expected.>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?good color balance, art direction, good new pokemon, as little diversity/ugly people as possible
>>58962000>Let’s keep it simple:>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I liked the ample amount of content SV offered, Gen 9 was fun and one of the best gens in a long time. I did hate the performance issues however.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?We'll get the starters, the titles, and a small peek at the region. I don't remember if they revealed the map during the first trailer last time around.>What kind starters are you hoping for?I hope that the green skunk isn't real. I also hope at least one of the starters is based on a mythical creature and has a majestic appearance. >And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?Bigger world and more polish in addition to overworld catching being confirmed. I'm looking forward to this. I enjoyed PLA and SV, I haven't played PLZA yet though because I was too focused on work and watching football over the past few months.
I liked the ralts you can catch at the start. I disliked that even if you beat lacey, there are no missions even if you beat victory road.I think it will mainly be a teaser. Something for people to chew on.For starters I want the og trio but I want dark, fairy, and psychic typingLikeWater/DarkFire/FairyGrass/Psychic Mainly what the legendaries looks like and the look of the new area.
>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I liked the story, a good chunk of the new pokemon and the music of SV. Performance and meh art direction really held SV back.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Something similar to SV, a title drop and the starters. Maybe a few quick flashes of gameplay.>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?Some proper dungeons. I've been missing those in pokemon games.
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?Like: I had fun playing the games (Violet and ZA)Dislike: These games are unsat coming from the largest multimedia franchise on the planet.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Eh probably just the starters like with Gen 9.>What kind starters are you hoping for?I just want the Grass starter's final form to look cool and be strong in-game.Grass is such an awful typing. Give me something like Grass/Steel.>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?More polish and evidence of better production.
>Skipped Gen 8 and 9 and switch games are just shit>Last good oen for me was Alola, it was a complete game at leastshould I have hope? i returned to POkemon go recently and I do like a lot of the new mons I see there, but man the mainline games deserve much better
I can't wait for more Kantoslop
Only thing I’m expecting is to be disappointed. I’m keeping my hopes down and only hope the waifu starter is alright.
>>58962185Hopefully none of the starters become waifus but that's such a longshot
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I liked not being locked to starting zones and being able to explore past each city without doing the gyms first. I just wish the gyms had some level of scaling, like amount of badges you have, so if you wanted, you could do the bug or grass gyms last and they would have more and higher leveled pokemon. >What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?I'm expecting a first look at the region with no new Pokemon other then either starter or legendary reveals. I expect the world to be open world like Paldea again, but smaller islands with different biomes like Alola. I just hope the game doesn't look like trash with horrible frame rate.
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I liked that you could go practically anywhere after the first trip to Mesagoza, I enjoyed going around the region catching Pokémon way too strong for me to use, then breeding them to make my baby team of 6 to take on the game, it's the most accessible team building had ever been.I disliked how boring the team star bases were, how the plots came together to just end up being Arven's epilogue, the BB quests in the DLC, a lot of small things alongside the obvious performance and visual issues.A bigger gripe is that despite letting you reach any objective on the map without issue, the teams/levels were static. It made the whole point of being able to go anywhere feel kind of shallow, I would have preferred it if gyms at the very least scaled based on the number of badges you already had.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Something similar to SWSH/SV, a few clips of the region in-game, maybe showing a battle, the MC designs, the logos, and the starters. We'll probably not see the footage of the starters in-game until the bigger trailer in June, and we'll definitely not hear about the gimmick until then, either.>What kind starters are you hoping for?I'm not too fussed about what animals they're based on, I just hope I like them.>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?All of the above would make me feel better, but I'd honestly just accept some form of improvement in terms of region design. Galar was a line with a loop and a branch and Paldea was basically just a lump of land with shit scattered everywhere with little thought put into it.If the region is smaller than Paldea, but the shit that is there feels more meaningful, I'd be fine with that.
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?Liked: Area Zero, Concept of Paradoxes, Skeledirge, Orthworm, Brambleghast, Toeds, Bombirdier, Cetitan, Veluza, Baxcalibur line ( I normally hate Pseudos) Gholdengo, Ruin pokemon, More Appletun line, Raging bolt. Handing out bred Perrserkers and Azumarills to anons and raiding with them.Hated: Phoned in graphics, School setting with terrible plot and "classes" Rivals, Worst Champion ever, "Play gyms in any order" But they don't scale. Big bad is the theater kids, Tinkatroon, Klawf being absolutely shit, Sandwiches, >What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Starters and an overview of the world. Would floor me to see fixed galar fossils or new fossil mon.>What kind starters are you hoping for?Marine Iguana, Hippo, or Tardigrade for WaterBat, Raptor, Snake for FireAny Bug, Sloth, or Ankylosaur for GrassOr Javan Rhino in any slot.>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?Lush world, all I've ever wanted in 3d were for pokemon to look like part of the environment, more like Pokemon snap, I want to see a venusaur picking fruit off a tree, or a wailmer asleep bobbing against some rocks on a shore. Not empty field #3 with seven gogoats and a charizard.
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?Everything about Area Zero and how the story wasn't fully concluded until the DLC. I think the conclusion was disappointing but it did make speculation more fun than it had been in ages.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?I'm expecting a reveal much like gen 9s. A few enviromental shots showing off old pokemon in the new engine, maybe a reveal of the starters as well.>What kind starters are you hoping for?I hope there is a cool / angsty one this time>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?I just want a pleasing art style and 60fps. I don't need any big game-changing gimmick
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I liked Arven's storyline, Area Zero, and the DLC. I liked the music (minus how jarring the Ed Sheeran song was) and I thought the game overall had good bones, but needed a year or two to flesh everything out better. Didn't like that you couldn't enter houses or buildings, how the environments looked, and how shit Penny's storyline was. Also hated the lack of character customization options because of the school theme.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Quick look at the environments, some existing Pokemon to bait that they improved textures or animations, the new starters, and the box legendaries to close.>What kind starters are you hoping for?I would like a dog. We've had 2 cat starters already.>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?I'm not delusional enough to expect BotW/TotK or Xenoblade levels of detail, but something more like New Snap would be nice. I also wish Pokemon would go for a more stylized look like Zelda rather than what they did for the human character models in SV.
>>58962289Arven earned that epilogue
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?Liked: The story, the vibes, the music, the Pokemon designs. Generally, I think they did a good job at balancing appealing to kids and adults. They just need a hard mode so crybabies will shut up about it already.Disliked: Open world. Now hear me out. I loved being able to go where I wanted to explore and get lost and wander into high-level territory. I just have been screeching autistically since GTAV about how fucking overrated and boring open world is. It's a band-aid, a substitute for good game design.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Knowing how GF operates these days, we'll probably get one of the following 3: Starters, title, or region teaser. Definitely not all 3.>What kind starters are you hoping for?Honestly, I don't care as long as they're well-designed and aren't awful to look at like Intelleon. In fact, I guess what I want is a water starter that doesn't look like shit in its final stage.>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?More polish. Huge, empty worlds are cringe. Make them believable/immersive first. More meaningful bonding with your Pokemon. Even better animations (They're improving slowly, but nowhere near the Stadium-esque games). More color variants than cringe shinies.I know we're not getting any of this now, but some additional hopes:>Fucking actually fix ice type>For the love of god some new Eeveelutions>Less focus on gimmicks outside of maybe megas, more focus on a good game.
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I disliked most things. They should keep co-op.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Some people will be doing shit and then pikachu or the starters will come to life and lead them to their switch 2 where they show flashes of the game and the title>What kind starters are you hoping for?Good ones, it's been 20 years since I last liked all the starters (final stages anyway)>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?A drastic change in direction from the leaks. A smaller scale but more focused and tighter designed game that controls like a modern video game and prettied up presentation of the battles. It should also let me ride my own pokemon instead of random mons I don't give a shit about or a fucking scooter. And don't make the MCs horrendously ugly like their leaked designs.
Have you guys finally copped with unovan pikachu becoming the new face of the franchise?
>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet? Im a consoooomer so I liked most things of Gen 9. Unironically one of the most fun times I've had with a Pokémon game was Violet. Games definitely felt like too many cooks in the kitchen, so hopefully they streamlined the design portion of development better.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos? Go in expecting nothing and you will always be surprised>What kind starters are you hoping for? Hopefully a trio of mons that are all actually good without a specific standout>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish? Make it 60fps and put actual fucking customization in it the school uniforms were so stupid
>>58962000I loved SV and played the hell out of it but you can't really say that without people getting mad at you so i generally keep it to myself. Only thing I didn't like where the amount of bugs and slowdown issues but I didn't get anything gamebreaking
>>58962862The new design is better.
>>58962908Same.
>>58962000i just want better mechanics for singles competitive because z moves, dynamax, hdb, tera, etc have all been complete garbage that made the game more sacky than ever. i dont care about the in game or graphics, i just want innovations to the combat that arent 1 time use "i win" buttons
>>58963088I honestly don't want any new gimmicks. Just give us plain battles again.
>>58963122No i would absolutely prefer some new mechanics or a new battle system in the game since 4 moves and a switch button being your only once per turn interactions are getting stale after 5 gens
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?It wasn't a finished and polished game.
>>58962027I want this for Gen 10 too.
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?Tera is the best battle gimmick. It took what made Dynamax great, its universality and dynamic timing, and made it even better by adding more more risk/reward to when you use it, making it even deeper strategically. You can get burned by a bad tera. There is strategy to baiting out a tera then punishing.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Title, starters, and legendary reveal. No names, just visuals of the Pokemon.>What kind starters are you hoping for?I don't care in the slightest, I only care about competitive at this point. Single player Pokemon hasn't changed in 9 gens other than becoming easier to the point it's boring,>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?If they show me gameplay of a small closed world with good frame rates running in the actual in game engine, I'll be hopeful. If they show open world slop, I'm expecting a game worse than SV.
>>58963132Eight moves, three targets, and two switch buttons.
>>58962000>What did you like about Gen 9Some of the new Pokemon designs like Meowscarada, Tinkaton and Koraidon>What did you dislike about Gen 9The empty open world; no building interiors aside from gyms and the E4; E4 doesn’t have separate battle rooms>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal?Title drop and starters>What kind starters are you hoping for?Grass reptile>What would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful?I’ve already given up hope on GameFreak and spinoffs. At this point I’m only here for the memes and porn.
>>58962193None of the Galar starters were waifumon
>>58962000hoping for a new starter waifu along 2 kaiju starters so everyone wins, also hoping for a new eeveelution, a new rotom form and for a real villain team and better online play modes
>>58962000I liked the illusion of an open world. It was nice getting to decide in what order to do the gyms. Loved the Kitakami and Blueberry episodes. Z-A was great as a different kind of game. Lida is my favorite pokegirl now.
>>58962000it will be shit like every gen since XY
>>58962000>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful?Since I don't expect to see quality, I wish they'd compensate with quantity. A second mainline game by ILCA would make it a good day for me.
>>58963616NOW WE'RE TALKIN
>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I kinda liked Legends AZ. I hated everything in SV, the artstyle, the gameplay, the characters, the music, most of the new pokémons, everything sucked ass.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?I'm 100% sure we will get starters. We might get the legendaries but i doubt it. I'm not expecting a lot besides titles and starters. This will probably just be a reveal teaser>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?Honestly, nothing. I don't think they can satisfy me yet make me buy an overpriced shitty hardware with a 80 bucks game that runs like shit and has a shitty cgi disney artstyle. The only reason why i got AZ is that it costs 40 bucks on release in my country.
I haven’t been as thrilled with Pokemon for a few generations. I’m hoping since they glaze kanto so much they’ll use a proper art direction inspired by it.
>>58963825This.
>>58962000if its gay and childish and looks like shit again im done with pokemon this is where im drawing the final line, you can only fuck me so many times
>>58962000What do you guys think the 3 shitty chibi animals will be this time ?
>>58963994dick balls and manassscreenshot this
>>58962000I didn't play any of the switch games. I only care if they bring back all the Pokemon, otherwise I'll skip the games.
Will Gen 10 have all Mons?vote here[] Yes[] No
>>58964046Obviously not. Hopefully UBs return tho so I can use Kartana again in VGC.
>>58962000>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Live action trailer that leads into starter reveals with like 30 seconds max of gameplay>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?All this and then some for me to even consider buying a mainline game again after so many years
>>58962000Oh so it does exist! :oWhat I liked about Scarlet and Violet was the general vibe of it all, it was very comfy and cozy and every named location had something going for it. That, as well as expanding on the flying mechanics from PL:A made it quite nice. My only complaint that wasn't fixed with the Switch 2 version (that I didn't play bc no switch 2) is that the level order thing isn't very well done, so I had to dart around the map using a guide for the "correct" order ;w;What I'm expecting from a gen 10 reveal? Probably a title drop with the 3 starters, like Scarlet and Biolet, but also I'm hoping that it's specifically dealt with like gen 7, where every week we get some news about the game! :DJust uh, probably not AS MUCH revealing stuff. Y'know? The starters? Uhh.. honestly, I'm just hoping we don't get another dark type starter, y'know? Outside of that? I want something else to make the chinese zodiac fans confused bc those guys are silly.As for the hopeful stuff? I'm always hopeful! but if they really want my attention for gen 10, maybe cel-shaded graphics like BoTW? but as a whole, they could port over the Pokewalker to gen 10 as well as make the TFG come back.
>>58964046No. No game since dexcut has had all mons.
>>58964682No game has had all mons ever. They split it into versions and gatekeep with events. You aren't supposed to catch them all.
>>58964046YesChampions is Gen 9 and will go through to Gen 10
>>58965073legends arceus say hi>b-but muh embortif it’s not in the dex than it doesn’t matter. You had 7 years
>>58965080>Championslmao
>>58965099The idea is to add all them over time
>>58965099Hopefully it shadowdrops tomorrow
>>58962000Kneel
Has a Direct even been announced? Don't they normally give at least a day's notice?
>>58965422iirc yeah they did, but I don't exactly remember where.
>>58965441Just found it, it was announced on 20th. Thanks.
>>58962000i expect the worst
>>58965660My expectations are middling
>>58965660Why you here then mate? Do something you like instead...
>>58962000It will be shitscreencap this
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I liked the characters and progression, I liked 2/3 of the starters, at least more than what we'd been getting lately.I didn't like the raids at all, and them being the only endgame system was complete ass. And as with all games nowadays, no contests, no secret bases, no battle frontier, not even a battle tower this time. Also the breeding in SV was so dogshit that the one thing I have left for fun (I enjoy breeding) was all but removed as well.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Landscape shots of the new region showing some returning Pokemon in their habitats, protagonists shown, titles dropped, and then starters revealed. Basically the same thing they've done for SwSh and SV.>What kind starters are you hoping for?Please no Intelleon and Quaquaval equivalent this gen, no starter has ever been as bad as those two. Obviously I'd love them to ditch the anthro jobshit entirely but thats too much to ask, so I just ask that one of them is at least vaguely looks like it would be cool, preferably a reptile.>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?Locked 30FPS with visuals at least at the level of the leaked beta screenshots (obviously with final environment lighting of course) would be fine, It doesnt have to look good, just not distractedly bad. In terms of what would make me feel hopeful, cool looking starters or cool looking player characters (or potential to make them look cool with customization, neither of which are ever possible) would be nice, but from leaks seems we're getting the same kinda garbage we got in SM and SV. I don't care about world size but I'd like for the islands to actually have some paths to take and navigation instead of just being a fucking heightmap with monsters spawned around.
>>58966185not him, but to enjoy the painlike a session of CBT
>>58966238It's not healthy. Outrage addiction is why the internet has become so harmful.
Ohmori and Masuda will walk on screen to this song before presenting gen 10https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWRa1jFIK-0
>>58966260based
>>58964046You already know the answer
is there a link to where i can wait on the stream? and what time will it be?
>>58963640Yeah, that is true. Maybe there's hope. I really want three cool looking monsters but we all know they're going to have a job in some fashion.
How many more hours again?
Water starter will be mid, fire will be Dogshit and grass will look the most promisingScreencap this for when I’m right
I'm glad Gen 9 is finally over, SV was complete shit and ZA was the definition of mid
>>58967338Gen 9 was good.
I'll keep it simple too, without going too far into it.What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?Dislike : Like everyone else, performance, just completely unacceptable and they really should have toned down the scope if it was staying on the Switch 1. Great idea, bad execution. Probably my biggest peeve. "One of the best Pokemon Games and some how the worst one too" Like: Open world and the flexibility you had alongside a fun main cast. Though Arven should have been fleshed out way more, but if you take what they were going for at face value, I like it a lot. What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?I'm expecting something similar to Gen 9 , a sneak peak at the region, the starters, and titles. What kind starters are you hoping for?I'm always open but I've been waiting years for a Platypus. But I feel we'll get that when TPC eventually does Aussie land If we really are getting south east asia, having a starter bird being off birds of paradise would be cool, even though it might be the regional bird Komodo seems like a shoe in, but more likely a regular mon, Dark/Poison for sure A QUADRAPED Tiger. Maybe a river dolphin? I see Oranguru getting a regional variant too.IDK just make them look cool, I'll be happy. And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?
>>58962908The people bitching and moaning about SV being a shitty broken game are the same people who prefer to watch some fag vidya streamer rather than playing the game themselves. Ive been seeing SV described as "under cooked" on a pretty regular basis lately and then it dawned on me that the fags saying it are likely parroting some fudge packing youtuber and have never actually formed an opinion of their own ever. Same thing with BDSP. I had a lot of fun playing it but keep being told that I have the wrong opinion of the game. It's funny how enjoyable games are when you don't watch insufferable streamers who think they're some world class critic all day long.
>>58962000I want the starters to be something fresh, not recycles of creatures we've already had
>paldeafags had to wait till the end of their Gen to come out of the woodwork and defend their gameKek
>>58962000I just want the fire starter to be coolThere hasn't been a good one since the chimchar line
>>58967782I think the issue they run into is that they want starters now to be instantly recognizable animals and to have this certain level of charisma which narrows it down a bit.Like, there'd never be a bug starter because bugs are icky and scary and starters need maximum broad appeal. But we get 2 cat starters because everyone loves cats, 2 crocodile starters because another iconic charismatic animal, 2 monkeys, etc. I guess it's mostly shocking we haven't had a full on dog yet (foxes only half count and fennekin leans away from the design language you'd expect). Feels like they spend too long nowadays thinking about the starters and lose the plot, picking very boring inspirations, and yet still managing to make universal flops like Quaquaval.
>>58967795At least fire isn't being karmically punished for the popularity of Greninja like water has been. There's mid starters and then there's whatever the fuck the Ohmori era water staters are. Fucking grass has been the only safeish bet overall and it has fucking Meganium and Chesnaught.
>>58967443Golduck is way overdue for an evo. In my head, it's a surfer where the spikes on its head turn into dreadlocks and it's just really chill and has mastered its latent psychic power.
>>58967795Cinderace is right there>b-but it’s too humanoidSo is Infernape. They’re both in the humanlike egg group.
>If the Gen 10 trailer is good, people will shitpost about it being not as good as other franchises>If the Gen 10 trailer is bad, people will shitpost about it not being as good as other franchisesThe illusion of choice
>>58962000What time is the direct happening tomorrow?
>>589680146am PSTAwkward time for me but I guess I'll make it work
Please no more cute girls who are actually guys.Actual dungeons too please.
>>58962069I would sooner restart Gen 8 and 9 and also nailgun my balls than go through Alola again.
>>58962000I HOPE THEY REVEAL NEW LEGO SETS
>>58967924>gay ass soccer player rabbitsterrible
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?The freedom to go where ever you wanted was nice even if it ruins the flow of the game because of the lack of level scaling though I don't think I'd actually want level scaling. A lot of the pokemon designs are good and area zero is interesting. The performance on release on switch 1 was completely unacceptable and the art direction is still pretty bad. Being restricted to the school uniform suck ass and makes a lot of the extra accessories worthless since the colors will always clash but I did like how much you COULD customize (clothing and trainer options) The hair selection sucks ass though. I liked the trainer options more in ZA at least but the game itself was less interesting than Arceus with it being restricted to one city. The flare hideout stuff was nice I guess.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Main character trainers and starters I guess. Maybe a tiny bit of the region.>What kind starters are you hoping for?Monsters instead of blatant furbait>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?I'm already hopeful, I liked SV on switch 2 and ZA was fine. I'd like a more linear region with exploration like old games but not a literal hallway like SWSH.
>>58968220how many hours is that from now?
>>589684266 hours 10 minutes
Remember the ZA leaks literally minutes before the reveal last year? Think it will happen again?
>>58962000>I think that, gameplay-wise, SV was one of the better games since the 3ds era, probably better than X/Y proper which is, for this era of Pokemon, a high bar. (there's still a massive powergap between that and platinum/gen 5.)That said, SV's performance is known to be ass, but also ZA wasn't exactly the hit I wanted it to be after playing Arceus. Makes me worried that SV is gonna be a flash in the pan for the series.>I'm a little more optimistic that we'll get some more info than just one part... because the leaks confirmed some of the info. If anything is held back, it'll be the starters.>Some cute folklore mons that don't all turn into humanoids is all I care about. Skeledirge was such a breath of fresh air.>I can't say anything about hope until I see the actual release of the game, but as one other anon mentioned, Open World is a meme that very few games actually manage. Openly declaring backing away from that philosophy would be a step in the right direction, if they follow through.As for my troll opinion: I wish Battle Styles from PLA comes back. Agile and Power style moves were a blast to work with and I'd bet they'd rip the competitive game to shreds.
>>58962000I don't care about the region.I don't care about the story.I don't care about the graphics. I don't care about the designs. I don't care about the gimmick.All I want in Gen 10 is more Pokemon with 1%-2% encounter/spawn/biome rates. I hope a situation like Gen 4 and Gen 6 where there were no new 1-2%ers doesn't happen in Gen 10.
I’m optimistic we will get gameplay footage. If they were willing to show off SV even in the state it was in, I’m certain this gen will have a bit more polish and they’d want to show that off. I hope. I just really want to see it.
>>58968778This but instead of rare mons, waifu mons
HOW MUCH TIME?
I'm just wondering how will they push customization this time around:Will we finally have Rusted Bottlecap for 0IVs or an IV slider mechanic? Even if IV slider costs some in-game currency/resource or gatekept until Champion clearWill we have Poke Ball swap? They can keep Cherish Ball for event distrosWill we have gender swap (when target is considered applicable)?Will we have shiny swap? Surely blocked on legends/mythics
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?Liked Arven. Liked Garganacl and Glimmora. Liked the gameplay experiments in Legends ZA and them not just doing another Legends Arceus with the setting. Hell I even liked Paldea's inspirations.Did not like SV overall unfortunately. The open world was a nice idea, the execution was absolutely abysmal. I can only hope the DLC had at least the amount of effort Area Zero got throughout, because every other part of Paldea just reinforces my opinion that they should've never made the visual switch they did from gen 5 to gen 6. ZA was a lot better likely owing to it being a much denser entirely urban setting, but that's such a low bar I'd need a shovel to find it regardless. What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?Another nail in the coffin. >And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?A release date in at least 2028, ideally 2030. Smaller world, tighter design. Paldea being as big as it was just made it worse by stretching everything out into a big unoptimized desert.
>>58968829Brah put 6am PST into a timezone converter
>>58968829british person here, my thing for it comes down to at 2PM, so that means it should be here in about 3 hours and 20 or so minutes! :3
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?Well the game actually crashed once, that was shit. But area 0 was genuinely interesting and cool. I actually cared about the characters. It was better than sword and shield at least.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Full region teaser? Just a title drop? Absolute chaos?At the very least starters, but considering this is the big 1-0 generation, I'm hoping they hint or reveal something about the world to make it interesting, maybe true open world, more liley whatever regional gimmicky they came up with this time.>What kind starters are you hoping for?I'd like one that's part bug, bug types are cool and a starter bug would be rad.>And finally, what would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?Polish, please, but for the love of god more things that make it feel like an actual world. Let us go back into people's houses and actually talk to people. Make some Pokemon hard to find, and challenging to catch. Optional areas to explore that are fun to explore.A man can dream.
All I want is for the battle gimmick to not be shit, so I am motivated to actually build a good team and battle online.
>>58968922I expect them to just bring back Megas again. At this point they perfectly know Megas sell.
the drone show is pretty cool
>>58968924megas returning would be good but I feel like nearly every ZA mega looked bad out of spite for people wanting the mechanic to return lmao
>>58969118>>58968924I always expected megas and teracrystals to work together, in a way a terracrystal is just a simple mega that allows an item.
I am sadly ready for zero anniversary event to take place in France as usual.
>>58962000I just want the Gen 10 Grass starter to look cool.More Gen 10 Pokemon outside of the starters would be great as well.So would gameplay, but I am not expecting that much.Beyond Gen 10, give me Pokken 2 please. Just keep my bro Sceptile on the roster.
Where's the english youtube livestream? I'm starting to get worried...
>>58969132It’s going to be a badass mother fucking dinosaur again, I feel it. Kaiju vibes
>>58969132>>58969152It's a humanoid fucking neckbeard piece of shit until proven otherwise. Do not get your (my) hopes up.
WILL THEY REVEAL NEW LEGO POKEMON SETS???
Are you hyped? How much more time do we have???
>>589691975 MORE MINUTES(2 hours)
A new PMD will be announced
stream isnt up yet right? cant find it on the yuutoobz
>>58964046And give up on making people pay for a home subscription? lol, lmao even
I just want Pokémon mystery dungeon to be aknowledged that’s all
>>58969206(⊙▽⊙)
It's gonna be scalper's christmas sadly. don't expect to ever get all the merch at their real price. I can already see those Mc donald's scandals but in 15 different places at the same time.
>>58969185God its ugly
Hear me out.Pokemon tactical RPG visual novel.
THE GREAT DJINN KUYBAH PREDICTS:It'll be meh.
>>58962000>Gen 9 likesArea Zero and the Teal Mask were the best bits of the game storywiseGood music as usual, save for a handfulRunning around anywhere and catching whatever you want whenever you wanted was pretty coolRaids were much better than gen 8 and metagaming them early on was fun>Gen 9 dislikesThe game looked and ran like shit (switch 2 makes it run better but still looks like ass)Removal of yet more features like building interiors, set mode, turn off battle animations, shiny hunting legends, etc.No level scaling meaning you eventually had to play in a certain way despite being open worldBattles are SLOW. Each turn takes forever and there's no way to speed it up>Gen 10 expectations?Just the bare minimum as usual. Starters, box legends and titles. Would be nice to get a region drop as well, but they will probably just sprinkle hints and let us guess.>Starters?Just don't make them mostly humanoids and don't give them jobs. Can we please just have cool monster-like starters that are unemployed? >Feeling hopeful about?More polish, more time, more money. The games will sell well regardless, so they don't need to worry about that. Instead, it would be nice to see them focus on trying to win the fanbase back by showing they actually care about the quality of their product and are listening to feedback
are they really just going to dump the full english video without doing a premiere or livestream?
>>58969135>>58969218>>58969347Can you tourists calm the fuck down and stop being so retarded. Stream starts in an hour and half, it'll be up soon
>>58962000Just remembered the Switch 2 Joycons can be used as a mouse.They're definitely tying an evolution to that gimmick. Calling it now.
>>58969365The Japanese one has been up for days

>>58969462Do you have the UK version? I hate English dub
bro im gonna fucking seethe if they announce gen 10 for 2027
>>58962000i loved scarlet and violet. the only way they can improve it is>characters keep the anime art style similar to Z-A>graphics aren't ugly (saying i want good graphics is asking too much)>60 fps>pokemon amie (PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I'LL SUCK YOUR DICK)yea. i just want to catch mons, fix their stats and chill.
>>58969513New genslop every 3 years is a business model now to make the shareholders happy, they will never break it
>>58969539they already broke it 2022+3 was 2025
>>58962000>What did you like or hate about gen 9The entire generation was a complete disaster and I loathe far too much of it. But quite a few mons I really like hailed from gen 9 like Slither Wing, Armarouge (even though it barely if at all looks like a Pokemon), Tatsugiri, Scovilain (even though it's design looks unfinished), Tatsugiri, Blood Moon Ursaluna and Hydrapple. And I'm eternally grateful two mons I love in Girafarig and Primeape got evos. I also like a lot of the plot beats from SV, even though they were very underbaked. I fucking despise ZA as a game and most of the Megas were fucking dogshit, but I'm still over the moon over some of my favorites like Delphox, Dragalge, Golisopod, Malamar and as said earlier Scovillain and Tatsu.>What are you expecting from the gen 10 reveal?Disappointment, as usual. I know for a fact barely anything's gonna get shown and I fully expect the new Pokemon to look like utter dogshit. We know from the Teraleak Gamefreak's been using AI for basically everything.>What kind of starters are you hoping forI want a varied range of starters instead of most of them turning into furbaits AGAIN.>What would need to see to feel hopeful?Dude, there's no saving this series by this point, it's gone full slop and the Teraleak painted a terrible picture of what to expect, like the fucking DEI "goals of improvement", which are all excuses for horribly dystopian shit, and those are the themes for the gym leaders front and center.
>>58969491It was up when you were typing this shit you fuckin cuck. Check your facts before typing next time or end yourself
>>58969547Shut the fuck up you fucking faggot
I wanna see how retarded zodiacfags can get.Hopefully we get a fire shark starter, and those retards start pretending it fits a dog.
>>58969569>still seething about zodiac theoryit still hasnt bee debunked btw
>>58969584It was debunked in gen 2 retard
>>58969589no it hasnt see >>58969584
>>58969589hedgehog in japanese is harinezumi, literally meaning needle rat
>>58962000New anime, plz
>>58969604>Drink your fug milk
>>58969604This is a good image
>>58962000>What did you like and dislike about Gen 9, especially Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet?I got to Area Zero and still haven't finished SV and have yet to pick up ZA. Long-standing gripes such as the easy difficulty and awful graphics made my playthrough monotonous and forgettable, but I do like how the human cast are becoming more developed.>What are you expecting from the Gen 10 reveal? Hopefully the titles, starters and some gameplay. If they can do it for Galar and Paldea, fingers crossed they can do it here.>What kind starters are you hoping for?Dogs are my favourite animal, I can't believe we don't have a dog starter yet (Fennekin is close, but it's a fox). A bat, sheep, cow or raccoon would be cool too. I really like that 'leaked' Grass skunk. >What would you need to see on Friday to feel hopeful? Better performance? Bigger world? More polish?Honestly just having a pretty world to immerse myself in would do wonders for my first impressions, half of my gripes with SV was how ugly it was. If any gameplay is shown, showing the Pokemon interacting with the environment, a populated and diverse open world and towns with a purpose would be great. I just hope they don't drop the ball on their 30th anniversary.
>>58962000>What kind starters are you hoping for?anything as long as they aren't anthropomorphic. give me something on 4 legs or something that can fly or some shit. tired of goonbait mons
>>58969513>2027fug
>>58969653Oh my god, there's actually a dog starter. Genuinely shaking like a retard right now I'm so happy.
