2026... I am forgotten
2026… never forget Cynthia cheated
>>59606853i hate ponbon i hope the evolution sucks just to spite it's fans
>>59606861*pisses in your cereal again*
>>59606873You'll get a fursuit twinkmon lucario clone btw
>>59606861I hope it's a biped and a fighting type
>>59606853seriously, when are we getting any news on this game?there has been nothing no characters, new pokemon, or anything
>>59607226Pokemon Day
I'm probably gunna skip this one too. Haven't been interested in new games since sword was just mediocre.
>>59607280>Suddendly i have standards
>>59606853They frankly look like something you'd see in some pokemon knockoff game. Their evolutions are not going to turn out well.
>>59606853
>>59606853I'm playing Aniimo
>>59607281Oh shut up
>>59607373Make me
>>59607385damn got his ass.
>>59606853So what will be the new gimmick?
>>59607318Unironically, unless it has the pokemon brand attached to it, it's some fakemon bullshit undeserving of my attention.
>>59607314That's exactly how I felt about S/V
>>59609554Fleas
>>59606861But Ponbon will have the best final stage of the 3 so you're just dooming everyone saying this.
>>59609554You press a button and the mon will change into an extra stupid form for the duration of that battle.
>>59607318The Palworld designs do look superficially like Pokemon, and they're probably the most faithful simulacrum of the official style among all of the knockoff brands. The problem is that the game fucking sucks and feels very unlike actual Pokemon, so yeah, this would be my reaction.
>>59606853>Palworld 1.0 has shown that you can make a successful mon catcher without following the pokemon formula>Aniimo has shown that you could copy Palworld instead of Pokemon and still manage to be successful as a online mon catching gameI don't know how Wind/Wave would do that would attract players into playing their game if its going to be the same like S/V. They tried action combat and it turn out terribly with ZA.
>>59609630>if its going to be the same like S/VI think it's going to be much better than S/V.
>>59609632Shame. I wish they could make a tight, linear RPG but everything has to be le hecking epic open world now
>>59607226I blame the 'take your time' faggots. Giving a company a huge leash just to shit out the same product on your plate is regarded.At least if we had rapid production we'd be getting something other then legends slop.Reminder: it doesn't matter if Gamefreak (or any big studio) takes 1 year or 6 years, the product will still be shit. See: Wolverine's 300mill 6 year product.
>>59609644The emphasis on islands seem to suggest they're shying away from pure square map style open world design, which Palworld and other knockoffs like Aniimo do use. Islands or at least geographically isolated parts of a region is a very good convention for Pokemon, since the game is really supposed to be about ecosystems and creature variety. The issue in recent gens has been overfocusing on story and human characters.
>>59609655Of course, anyone but who's actually to blame in Nintendo delaying Switch 2 and forcing Game Freak to enter the 30th anniversary year with nothing to show, bar re-releases of 12 year old games, purely because Kanto otherwise.But then again, they only give a shit about casuals and casuals don't sack the fuck out if they no get their new pogeymans game this year, they fuck off and okay some other casual-magnet release during the year until it's time to play Pokémon.
>>59609657It feels like S/V did the best with the story in that regard, but somehow fuck it up with ZA. Aniimo copied S/V story telling with the whole 3 branch that merge into one at the end.
>>59609669It sounds like Winds and Waves is going with the same routine again, if the leaks are anything to be believed, which is maybe how Game Freak is trying to balance the demands of traditionalists vs. waifufags, basically. I'm a traditionalist all the way so as long as the games are enjoyable without waifufaggotry, I'm good. I just want the game to deliver on its environments, which every single 3D game has failed to do. If they do that I'm sold.
>>596068532027 will be eatin' good
>>59609667This is currently the longest gap in Pokemon franchise history. The previous longest gap between mainline generations was 4 years.I don't give a shit if Pokemon is the biggest IP in the world, how the fuck are you supposed to stay relevant if you don't indoctrinate people on semi-yearly basis?Literally grown ass men in their 40s are scalping Pokemon cards with kids not being able to even sniff a pack themselves. Add that to game production taking for fucking ever. This take your time shit is absolutely regarded.
>>59609691It's a little bit longer than the gap before Diamond and Pearl. That one was a doozy. You probably need to relax.
>>59609691>his is currently the longest gap in Pokemon franchise history.>what is ZA
>>59609699Do you know how to read bold print?>>59609697An entire generation of kids has gone without a Pokemon game. Do you think they will be acting like feral Pokemon manchildren in the future if they weren't given any nostalgia to latch onto?Long release times are fucking stupid.
>>59609691What do you think Pokopia is? It's no small wonder to make a spin-off sell you needed to get Game Freak to set the concept, but here we are Pokopia the best-selling spin-off since Pokémania. There's also FireRed and LeafGreen, trite and old to you, new and undiscovered to kids while they happily wait for "2027" and more news. Cry more about how they don't give a monkey's for overly attached manchildren, contribute to the empty nothingness of young adult male rage over kid's games.
>>59609708>An entire generation of kids has gone without a Pokemon game.Just a mainline game. The IP has expanded greatly beyond that, and remains relevant as ever.
>>59609601>so you're just dooming everyone saying this.Evryone but me so who cares?
