>mega pyroar on the front cover
>>59274041August 7th, 448 pages, full colour, B5 format, pokédex info, etc, etc.Basically the National Pokédex in physical format.
>>59274041But I don't want to pay 1500$ to scalperman so I can read ugly things about nu-shitmon from games I will never play.
>>59274049>it has all pokemon>"read about nu-shitmon from games I will never play"So either you are retarded and mad or most pokemon from the 1025 that currently exist are considered "nu-shitmon" from games you don't play. What are you doing here then? You literally don't like pokemon anymore if MOST of it is shit you will never touch.
>>59274076A book with only gen 1 to gen 6 or 7 is objectively better and not a waste of paper.I love gen 1-6, especially gen 3, 4 and 5 they are so cuddly!!!Gen 8 and 9 are evil because there are tok many shitmon from games I will never play!!!
what was the other book that was like an encyclopedia? has it released globally yet?
>>59274048where's cosplay pikachuwhere's pikachu-colored pichu and spiky-eared pichu?
>>59274048I like that you can see the art quality degrade in real time!
>>59274048GMax Pikachu has more Soul than the AI Mega Chu's
>>59274041I still can't believe these are official renders of Mega Raichu X and Y. The shading is non existent. It looks so amateurish. Ken Sugimori wouldn't have made renders this half assed.
>>59274121Maybe in a separate page since they are unique individuals rather than something normal of the species
>>59274176>"remember KANTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO days' Pikachu? Now it's a power up!">soul
>>59274048>no Spunzorek Pichu and Ukulele Pichuheh
>>59274400Fratello... learn more english
>>59274371Yes better than those AI slop designs, NuMegas are a mistake
>>59274041What's the point of these when it's just stock images + copy pasted dex entries?It will say again that Venusaur loves sleeping under the sun and Charizard loves fighting and Pikachu is wholesome.Totally worthless junk but now with Gen 9 pokemon
>>59274048We really hit the point where Pokemon has become truly Digimonesque
>>59274486Shut up and choose your starter for Pokémon Seed, coming out in February 27th, 2030.
>>59274048>50% of the page is empty and white>text is so small and tightthis is why art degree is important
>>59274515>Pokémon SneedI will probably not play it becauseI don't want to buyfag a Switch 2, but if it's on PC I will pick Eevee as my starter.I love Eeve he is so cute and FLUFFY!!!I like Leafeon, Sylveon, Glaceon, Umbreon and Flareon and I will pick one depending on what other mons are available to me.
>>59274092You mean the one announced the other day? That's an illustrated book. And if you meant the one from last year it's more about the ecology side and how pokémon interact, less about what the franchise normally uses for encyclopedia ("dex" is called "illustrated encyclopedia" in japanese after all)And I think it came out overseas already, yeah.
>>59274476It's just an art reference book really.
>>59274048Jeez. The one that only had 151 and partial info on Togepi I had as a kid had more information in it.
>>59274041>>59274048>Collection of stock renders that have been around since forever>Will probably get scalped to death anyway
>>59274125The art already went to shit when they went digital in Gen 3
Boring, the other books looks better pokeecology
>>59274041What a bad selection of mons.
>>59274121You know that isn't true.
>>59276863Meant to reply to >>59274347 I am retarded.
>>59274041>shitty stock art>copy paste dex entries from decades agoSUGOIII THANK YOU GAMEFREAK
>>59275885>the book that had to cover for 152 pokemon could get more into each species than the book that has to cover 1025 pokemon and a few hundred alt forms
>>59274544>And I think it came out overseas already, yeahThe ecology one releases in July
>>59274371Yes. when will you learn?
>>59277577Is there a reason why it can't be an omnibus of Pokemon?
>>59277798It has to be sellable to kids.
>>59274515Finally, we forget about Clefable.
>>59275959These nip books don't get scalped.
