will this game be full of sweatlords?
>>59139111>game centered around PVP and ONLY PVPYes.
Yeah. The first month or so before the meta is figured out it will be okay, but after that and the inevitable player count drop, it's going to be tryhard city
Its the sweatlord containment game
THE fattest sweatiest neckbeard manchildren known to mankind...
>>59139111it will go to hell after legendaries, UBs and paradoxes get into it
>>59139111There's already a showdown fork full of sweatlords, there's little hope for casuals other than hoping your fellow noobs crowd the nerds out.
I'm going to try some fun teams while the game is new.I think I have a good plan for Reds Team, Mega Charizard Y can set up drought, and Venusaur can work off that with double speed and insta-Solar beam and quick sleep powder, and Fire/Grass Pledge combo in doubles. Snorlax with Belly Drum/White Herb/recycle is always fun, Blastoise can chip and slow shit down with icy wind, Pikachu with Light Ball and a sneaky lightning rod can be legendary tier and disrupt with fakeout. Espeon with Trick Room can make shit like Snorlax an unstoppable machine.It's probably full of holes, but it will be fun to build and try.
>>59139111100% it will, the only thing the game offers is pvp, no single player mode, it's going to be one of the most sweatiest games on the Switch
>>59139783>Fire/Grass PledgeWater/Grass is better, nobody knows how to deal with Swamp.
>>59139111Sweatier that battle spot, less sweaty than showdown.
>>59139813Depends, firestorm is good to break sash wwhere applicable
>>59139111without a doubt
>>59139160If ZA is any indication it will have rotating seasons but yes trying to play through any legendary season will drain your will to ever touch competitive again
>>59139111>everyone better than me is a sweatlord
Sweats, but with people trying to learn and improve too.I will be trying to use Pokemon that I like that just aren't very good, like regular Samurott and Emolga. But I really do suck at teambuilding and predictions.
>>59139111The first one or two weeks will be ok, then the normies will be deported once the true sweats figure out the meta
Bets on what the primary normie complaint Pokemon will be? My money is on Dondozo
>>59139878Dondozo for sure, the hate for the fire bara cat will sky rocket to atomic levels, even more than it already is
>>59139878arch/peli electro shot, though I think if you can pull that off you'll quickly get out of the elo hell normies will exist in
>>59139882I feel like normalfags will understand Incin being popular because it's a known meme. Stuff like Whimmsicott Tailwind or anything with Grimmsnarl will catch them off guard.
>>59139111>Make a spirited team that showcases your genuine love of the franchise over the years>Proceed to lose to the top 20 mons in every single battle you doIt would be foolish to think that the magic al days of Stadium 1&2 can ever be duplicated.
>>59139111The true sweatlords will stick to Showdown the first time they see a Snow Cloak or Sand Veil mon holding Bright Powder and using Double Team
Its going to always be a little sweaty thanks to home support. Imagine being fed random scraps from the gacha while someone else has all their powercreeping S/V mons locked and loaded
>>59139111>imageLooks like a chinese game with fake pokémon.
