after they started only making abortions starting with sword and shield why would anyone give a shit about these games

>>715863768 (OP)
Pokémon’s as popular as ever, but everything about it sucks. Games have been shit for years, the anime is flopping, spinoffs have been replaced by gachas

>>715863768 (OP)
Palworld beating the shit out of nintendo in court made pokekeks kill themselves.

Don't care, still buying digimon.

can't wait for them to fuck up Champions by making it some bootleg version of the main games like the TCG mobile instead of just being an official version of showdown

>>715865585
it's too early to say it but i guess the setting is also turning some people off, why would you be stuck in one goddamn city in a pokemon game? this game will underperform in my opinion
as for the next gen, depends if they learned their lessons with scatvomit and palworld

>>715863768 (OP)
Pokemon has been dead for at least 15 years.

Switch era broke the camel's back for a lot of people (if not way earlier) and while I have no stats on it I think what remains of 4chan's userbase is old enough to not just consume, and the outlook is miserable across the board, be it mainline or spinoffs.

Reminder that Sword and Shield are still the worst games in the series. And they forever will be.

I only follow Pokémon news from a distance since Emerald because the games weren't evolving in any useful direction, I might be the one faggot who will appreciate a revamp of the combat system.

Switch 2 emulators aren't going to be there for a while...

>>715873390
It's an action game now, the pokemon move around during battle and the attacks are unlimited use but go on cooldown after you use them
I don't know why people are complaining, this kind of experimentation is what the spinoff games should be for

Pokemon? Is that just a ripoff of Digimon? No wonder no one's talking about this

there is zero reason to bother with pokeslop when palworld exists

>>715863889

That's our Gamefreak!

>>715873923
On top of that it's pretty much guaranteed to have zero new game announcements since ZA and Champions news is expected to be the big 'reveals' of the presents. We will be lucky to get a little blip of "gen 10 is coming" with zero new mons shown.

>>715874407
Pokemon still has an appeal for its turn based gameplay, there's merit in wanting to play the older games at least and not the new slop.

>>715867140
Keep that 3d shit away from it

Not fan of cooldown on everything because that lead to mmo-style rotations, but it does sound interesting.

Nintendo just did a regular court procedure than ensured their victory last time.

>>715863768 (OP)
Looking at the "quality" of the games from past few gens, i have 0 interest or hype.

Are the chances of the next-gen reveal zero? Is that kind of stuff like, pokemon-day exclusive or something?
Has there been a pattern to past reveals? I've never really kept track.

>oh your pokemon doesn't have a mega evolution?

>>715873498
>I don't know why people are complaining
'cause it's Gamefreak.
The last time they tried to be creative with a combat system we got Little Town Hero.
There is a good reason they never deviated much from the dinosaur-era Gen1 combat gameplay: it work, and for them it's a miracle they know won't happen twice.

>>715876805
Haven't played Palworld since forever, did they ever give the non-starting area the same level of polish as the starting one?
I remember everything beyond the start and middle being really "how do I use the heightmap painting tools?" tier, which shit randomly sprinkled over it instead of trying to be interesting like the tutorial zone.
Or are they just adding new zones and leaving the old ones forever as is?

>>715863768 (OP)

>Pokeshit
It will suck, as usual. Wake me up when the actual Direct is announced.

>>715876617
>Is it confirmed there are no abilities? What does that even mean for Mega Kangaskhan?
Gamefreak will make adjustments for edge cases like that if Legends Arceus is to go by. Abilities are technically in Arceus but litteraly just for Regigigas. Cherrim's sunshine form's base stats are also buffed to match what they would be if it had its ability.

If Zygarde is balance then I assume the new A legendary will be Chaos.

>>715873498
Assuming you can dodge every attack, Mega Beedrill will be good for speedruns.

>>715866062
SV was far worse.

>>715863768 (OP)

Probably still won't buy these games but it'd be neat to see.
Gonna be fun to see how hard it powercreeps every previous mon like always.
I'm thinking 200 in every stat, Ice + Fire + Electric + Dragon type and immunity to Ice + Electric + Fire built into its passive.

This is long time coming, hopefully Pokemon will get the wetwork it desperately needs.

they've made the exact same game for 20 fucking years or something crazy like that. yeah i'm not excited for it, i haven't bought a pokemon game since heartgold.

>>715867140
If GF had good leadership, Gen5 remake would follow HGSS's lead of content overflow, and combine BW/BW2 in one game

>>715882534
The new DK game looked pretty meh to me when they revealed it, but that Dk direct sold me the game and it was great, i really doubt that GF can pull off something like that, hope im wrong

>>715882665
>and combine BW/BW2 in one game
Im pretty terrified of the idea of them remaking BW and then B2W2 one or two years after

>>715878326
Not much has changed environment wise yet in older areas. There are random enemy bases that show up all over the older zones, settlement have gotten a good makeover, there are more quest givers spread throughout, and early dungeons have more variety now.

>>715863768 (OP)
they never announce anything at these things

>>715863768 (OP)
It'll probably suck, but at least it'll be better than Palworld.

>>715867140
I had hopes and dreams for the Gen 4 remakes. Not making the same mistake for BW.

>Pokesloppers actually believe this
TOP KEK

>>715863768 (OP)
The latest gens have really dropped in terms of interest for me. While monster raising franchises branch out to other consoles like Digimon, Pokemon stays really antiquated being gated behind the dog shit Nintendo Switch. That's my main gripe with the franchise.

>>715863768 (OP)
Just release Champions already so I don't have to boot up V*olet to play online

>>715867140
that they skip it and pretend it didn't happen so it can stay "hated" by the fans. I don't want brainrotters to retroactively have always loved it.

>>715873607
It's not better. Legends Arceus blows Palworld out the water with soul, gameplay and actually having pokemon every single time. Gamefreak are masters at their craft, after making the exact same boring game for over 20 years, they know exactly how to perfect making it.

Gamefreak all the way.

>>715863768 (OP)
it will be mid sloppa
and poketendies will eat it up

>>715863834
Not a containment board.

Palworld will always be in Pokémon's shadow, and Palkeks will continue to suffer from Little Brother Syndrome.

Modern Pokemon blows dick but the amount of seethe it still generates is amusing

>>715878649
You're getting mega Lucario 10 minutes into the speedrun we're not using Beeshit

>>715863768 (OP)
Are we getting a normal nintendo direct soon?

>>715888383
You desperately wish PLA had a fraction of the soul that Palworld has

>>715863768 (OP)
genuinely who cares? ZA looks like dogshit, here's no way we're getting more than a shitty teaser for gen 10 (which will also be dogshit anyone with a brain will skip), and they don't make spinoffs anymore besides shitty mobile slop.
there's literally nothing to be excited about.

Palworld won

>>715888830
This

>>715887364
Palworld's a shit game because it's Ark. There are tons of alternatives to Pokemon. PokeMMO, SMTV and Digimon are all better. Palworld has the most aggressive fans even though the game is the worst of all monster tamers by virtue of being survival-shit. Nobody cares about Palworld outside of seething about Pokemon. Look at how low recent views for Palworld animations are. Look at this thread. Off the bat, some Palnigger had to spill his spaghetti. That's why I made that post about whatever this direct's supposed to be will be better than Palworld. I don't care about nu-Pokemon, but I hate Palniggers. To me you're like animals in a zoo who deserve to be pelted with peanuts. And it's only Palniggers that do this which is why you earned the title of nigger. Digimon mogs both franchises, and yet Digibros just keep to themselves and talk about their series.

>>715888503
>Palkeks will continue to suffer from Little Brother Syndrome
They're more like aggressive niggers with rabies. Mention Pokemon once, and they'll go into a frenzy. Sub-human behavior.

>Palniggers claim to love the genre
>A good monster tamer with soul and polish is coming out later this year
>they continue to aggressively push their trashy, Ark, survival-slop clone. Literally the one game in the genre that is objectively worse than Pokemon Scarlet and Violet
No, I will not play Palworld, Valhiem, Subnautica, Ark, Dune, Conan or that one vampire game. Begone.

>>715863768 (OP)
I literally only care if they announce a new PMD or Pokken DX (rollback edition). Every other Pokemon-related thing sucks ass.

>>715891787
Literally why would I play PokeMMO it's just Pokemon but more grindy by many degrees
I picked up Cybersleuth when it was like 5 dollars for both games and bounced off it hard, there was no real strategy just the Vaccine>Virus>Data triangle which was absolute. Pokemon has types but you can still play around them with coverage moves and stuff, in Cyber Sleuth you'd do no damage no matter what attack you were using if you were the wrong type.
