There's nothing soulful about it, it's pure pandering to the irony poisoned internet

They stopped trying in Gen VI, after they put so much misguided effort into Gen V only to make a lot of turds that nobody liked.
They said, why bother. Just put some spikes on Charizard or paint it black, or both. Put three wigs on Dugtrio. Turn Pikachu into a big kaiju. Make Gallade a robot. Give Starmie long legs. Who cares. These games sell like hotcakes anyway. Why bother.
And I don't blame them for seeing things that way.

>>723237579 (OP)
Its not. Its a game.

Wrong, I was in lumiose city yesterday and saw a mega starmie in person, it was crazy.

you will buy it anyway like you always do

PORN WHEN

>>723237579 (OP)
What pisses me off isn't that it walks, it's that it's bipedal and the ruined the radial symmetry of it. You could have made 5 arms equally long and made it roll around like a wheel. When it floats and spins like a UFO is perfectly fine for a psychic type.

Who gives a shit when the games keep selling? And the games are cheap as fuck to make too, and clearly take very little effort considering how shit the end product is.
Being praised is the last thing in their minds.

>>723240356
Nice pic anon, it gets me thinking hard

>>723238971
Anon the Starmie line has always been a reference to Ultraman. Look up their Japanese names and why they do certain poses in their animations.

>>723240894
What is it a reference to? The actual "he's fast" meme? "Pikachu stood up!"?

Notice how digimon never gets this response. the gamefreak designers are smart

>>723241253
Ignore post, I read above

Common Pokemon W

>>723241259
no one cares about Digimon.

>turn it into a mixed attacker with more attack than special attack
I don't know how to feel about it

>>723237579 (OP)
Why does the funny pokemon make some anons angry? Can't they appreciate the joy of small things?

>>723241484
Remind me, and I know it means nothing in a post-dexit era, but does Starmie have any worthy physical attacks other than >>>spin?

The new Digimon game set an unrealistic and unreasonable precedent for these style of games. I said it.
No company should be expected to model and animate 500+ different 'mons', provide voice acting, and complex gameplay systems. It's not something that's possible or achievable without inflating budgets into the 500+ million range. You're a piece of shit if you're hating on this.

>>723241484
Frosslass, Skarmory, Delphox, Scrafty, and Chandeleur look like the only usable ones here. Everyone else either has garbage speed or some dumb flaw in defense.
>M Emboar: defense 75

>>723241747
They make fucking billions of dollars they could easily animate every pokemon properly.

>>723241747
>small indie company pls understand

>be patient with them, they dont have money

>>723241627
Waterfall and that's it.

>>723241627
They will probably give it Aqua Step, it also has flip turn and gyro ball and psycho cutter

>>723241526
See >>723239454

>>723241747
Betheada games have hundreds of NPCs with unique dialog and they all use the same 8 actors. Pokemon LITERALLY SAID they were making Dexit to work on higher quality models for each Pokemon DESPITE THE FACT THEY ALSO SAID THEY HAD DESIGNED A STANDARD MODEL FOR EACH SPECIES THE PREVOOUS GENERATION THST ONLY NEEDED SIMPLE TWEAKS TO KEEP UPDATED.

>>723241790
>Skarmory
>loses defense
>speed and offences aren't anything special even by gen 4 standards let alone 10
>useable
lmao why would I waste my megaslot on it instead

Why would you invest resources on different animations when you're 100% sure your fanbase will gobble it up regardless? That's basically burning money for no reason

>>723241627
waterfall and psycho cut? flip turn too which is water u-turn, but they probably gave it some new move

>>723239171
Also stupid gimmick designs go viral easier than safe designs.

>>723241253
Ultraman, you fucking retard. Staryu and starmie having laser and simple "haya" sound effects was a reference to Ultraman.

>>723242047
65/100/110 is pretty good defenses for a pokemon that also has 140 attack and 110 speed and Weak Armor.a Swords Dance into taking a hit should be all you need to sweep.

>>723242079
>>723242006
>>723241965
Thanks. Yeah I'm sure they are not dumb enough to turn it into a physical attacker and not improving the movepool.

>>723241790
Adamant Excadrill will be omnipresent in doubles and probably singles too

>>723237579 (OP)
I walk like this

>>723242164
Yeah but I can do that already with other mons.

>>723242183
Cant sash it though. Maybe in Singles if the enemy doesn't turn off the Sand, but doubles it seems like it'd die to a special hit easily.

>>723237579 (OP)
>I'm going to page 10!

>>723242164
I don't consider any of those mega lists complete because none of the other megas kept their original abilities

>>723242370
People will just use the EVs you don’t need in speed due to sand rush for the special defense if it’s relevant

>>723240445
That's retarded though
Confusing 'esoteric' for 'goofy' is a sign that nobody working there has any understanding of art as a concept

>>723242643
It's the mindset of a sitcom comedian. Dan Schnieder would do this.

>>723238159
Hold on, is this real?

>>723242643
What the fuck do you think esoteric means.

>>723241484
I like how the game is so power crept now that adding 100bst to these older gen mons still makes them look weaker than the bullshit weve been getting the last couple of gens.

>>723243446
It's about opprotunity cost too.

>>723237579 (OP)
There's a pokemon that is literally a bridge, a pokemon that is a penguin with an ice cube for head, and pokemon that is a pile of bricks with eyes, and this where you draw the line? Starmie with long legs?

>>723239549
The idea of letting someone else come in and develop the games has been floated repeatedly and Gamefreak has shot it down each time. They don't want to let go because they know they're mediocre and got lucky once.

It's literally supposed to look bad.

Starmie's line as a whole are gagmons based on Ultraman. The whole point of the mega is that it's meant to look like a human wearing a bad Starmie costume, like those cheap looking monsters in early Ultraman series.

>>723243415
Let me guess, you also think cute is a synonym for sexy

>>723241484
The fuck are these stats? Theyre so fucking bad holy shit. Mega clefable is literally just togekiss, an already bad shitmon, but slower. All these dumb mixed attackers like elektross and victribell are literally nothing special stat wise, theyd still be considered shitmons even if they didnt take a mega slot and were able to hold an item. God damn they better have some crazy ass abilities when they get ported to the real game.

>>723244145
Obviously it means delicious.

>>723239454
>What pisses me off isn't that it walks, it's that it's bipedal
It was always bipedal you fucking goblin

REDDITBOB!

>>723244201
Yeah I don't know what they were smoking. The mega gives +100 BST rule isn't enough anymore when they give it to 440BST shitters when minmaxed 550BST+ thta can hold items mons are everywhere lately.

>>723244145

It also doesn't help when they like to keep pushing for mixed attackers.

"i came"

I need skarmory feet pics

>>723244959
Yes anon the point of some megas is to make bad mons better.

>>723241484
Does that matter when the battles are real-time? I guess they'll probably port these megas to gen 10 like Arceus did to gen 9 so we'll see them in a turn-based format eventually.

>>723245213

This whole game lacks the Sovl of Pokemon so this is just slop. Only people who know about SOVL can say this btw

>>723245481
OH LAWD HE COMIN'

>>723245503
Yeah they specifically create a gimmick, new designs and a total restat to forgotten mons like Chimecho and Victrebell just to make themworse. Just accept GF doesn't know what they are doing stat wise.

>>723245625
>Just accept GF doesn't know what they are doing stat wise
Yes this has been the case pretty long, not sure how this goes against how competitive viability of mons suddenly matters.

>>723245207
Well it also tried making good mons even better too. Mewtwo and Rayquaza were never bad mons but they got megas.

>>723237579 (OP)
SOUL

>>723245481
Now this is a good design.

>>723245706

Shillchomp Mega was unusable because he lost 10 speed

>>723247401
Unusable? I used him in the game just fine. Did you have a glitch or something?

>>723247465
Yes I would indeed call my mon getting worse when I use le gimmick a glitch.

>>723247814
Did you lose to the champion or something? You want some tips to beat the Elite 4?

>>723248097
Dunno I never tried pressing the big red button until I went to comp (not in cart ofc) and my chomp was worse. It maybe was glitched.

>>723248245
>Don't know
Clearly.

>>723247401
It also lost rough skin for a useless ability. Nowadays if it kept rough skin itd probably work as a bulky hazard setter with a strong af dragon tail since thats the role current chomp has(no, its sweeping sets are beyond trash these days)

>>723249361
hahahaha lmao no all the emulator generals in /vp/ were crying why it doesnt even launch lmao

How convenient that everyone ignores all the posts saying the Staryu line has always been a joke reference to Ultraman all this time. You'd rather pretend that they were a line Gamfreak designed seriously.

The nips knew about this since the beginning since Ultraman is pop culture to them. It"s like the whole "Pokemon shrink inside Pokeballs" thing again.

Bro this is so cool how the fuck can one company be so incompetent

>>723254395
>Palworld and Digimon Time Stranger mog Pokeslop though
HA no. I'm a diehard Digimon fan and time stranger is just as bad if not worse than CS. Sure it looks like but as a game it still makes the mistake of making their bosses tedious but not hard, having linear maps and awful dungeons, tons of recolors and they ruined the farm to sell DLC.

Palworld is just a bad tamer in general because you can't even control your pals and that's all it takes to be cemented as shit.

This, because one Mega Pokemon does a callback to its base form all Mega Pokemon ever would do the exact same thing.

>>723256674
Exactly.

>>723256430
That's because it is. If you read the complaints people have it's never about the game itself.

>>723256430
The only thing I don't like compared to the original leak is that the area where its legs connect was brought down with its legs. Now it doesn't look like they gave it long legs, it looks like they just gave it a pelvis.

I don't dislike the available shitmon only perspective but holy fuck seeing mega doom with NP but only having access to ember or snarl is so fucking off putting. Yeah he's level 37 I get it but lmao.

all israeli cats are trained in krav maga

>>723261370
Do the cats starve babies to death too?

>>723261463
yes israeli cats are trained to steal food from children

>>723237579 (OP)
GameFreak is creatively bankrupt.

do people not know staryu and starmie are joke mons?

>>723237760
Because your taste is utter dogshit.

>>723261748
cry about it

>>723259250
Nta but you sound like a pathetic retard and a shill.

And when you hear people defending this series it's always strawman low IQ retards like you. Strange, isn't it.

>>723262159
Digichads won actually

Last decade of pokemon games confirmed kusoge slop by the devs
Gen 6-9 were all shit

>>723238159
what in tarnation

>>723263739
The lack of handheld consoles I think really fucked them
Pokemon used to be a defining part of the console. People would buy a DS FOR Pokemon
Now it's just shovelware people care grab on the console they already bought for Mario Kart or Zelda or whatever

>>723248073
I wish I didnt laugh at this but the bit at 0:05 got me

>>723256260
Not fully controlling your pals makes it more of a real tamer, unironically. Same with Digimon World.

>>723261370
They crave manga.

>>723237579 (OP)
This is fucking kino
Feraligatr however is a travesty

>>723244889
His destiny

>>723266091
His mega doesn’t even make sense, he has to move his arms in place every single time he wants the big jaw to chomp down

>>723266426
It's genuinely mind boggling how they even came up with something so odd and terrible, out of all the other possibilities

>>723266091
It looks like Totodile.

>>723250171
Well, it was never as blatant as Decarabia until now.

Reminds me of the Waterwraith when it loses it's rollers.

>>723268339
This pure genius.

>>723268339
hopefully nintendo gets sued for this

>>723238159
AIslop will never be funny. The original cgi one is a thousand times more entertaining.

>>723238159
Hilarious.

>>723268339
except those are symmetrical, just like regular starmie

>>723267919
Thanks I hate it

>>723237579 (OP)
Imagine that shit charging you down in the middle of the night. They unintentionally nailed the "eldritch night terror" aesthetic with this.

>>723238159
The AI dancing cats only look as good as they do, because the fur provides an effective blurring effect for the shitty ai jank.

>>723241484
I don't get why Mega Drampa isn't an electric type when it's design clearly has thunderclouds and it's dex entry says it controls storms

>>723240356
yea but they are MEGYA EVOLVED

>Rock papers scissors

Tell me when Pokemon has moved away from this gameplay.

>>723249648
It's funny how this board managed to make me feel happy whenever I see Bazzy

>>723270824
It’s rock paper scissors but you spam more moves now with cooldowns

>>723270939
Qrd?

>>723249038
This is way better.

>>723237579 (OP)
>we want silly goofy pokemon
>no, not like this
Pokemon fans are never happy.

>>723257678
I miss lanky mario.
And I miss costumes.

>>723268339
Brilliant.

I haven't played a Pokemon game since GBA

When did they become Soulslikes? It felt so fucking surreal when I saw this

>>723272362
I don't get it honestly.
I honestly don't think the core Pokemon gameplay of catching some cute new dudes and battling 8 new gyms would ever get old provided the games were simply functional to the bare minimum you'd expect of a AAA game.

But for some reason GF have decided the issue is that the entire fundamental formula needs a shake up so instead we're subjected to more half finished unoptimized garbage but now with dumbass battle gimmicks instead.

JUST DO WHAT WAS WORKING BEFORE BUT FINISH THE FUCKING GAMES BEFORE RELEASING YOU MORONS

>>723272362
What happens if the trainer gets hit?

>>723272951
Agreed. The gyms work fine, those island challenges in sun/moon were awful.

>>723273656
totems were a pretty cool take on boss battles though

>>723273706
Nah, I like my classic gyms.

>>723242142
not seeing it?
if so, it was poorly executed

>>723273092
It's probably like Arceus where the edge of the screen gets red until you take enough damage and die

>>723273092
There was another webm where a pokemone did a big arena wide attack, you are suppose to hide behind a ;pillar. They failed to and the trainer passes out ending the battle.

I assume the same thing happens if you are hit by enough regular attacks.

>>723273092
it would be extremely painful

>>723273092
its almost impossible to get hit unless you dont move at all, he just gets stunned so cant issue commands for a bit.

>>723273092
It hurts.

>>723277270
I live for this.

>>723237579 (OP)
They did the meme >>723277270

>>723274179
I can't help but feel like they're explicitly copying Palworld, at this point.

>>723274179
>a pokemone

>>723237579 (OP)
I’m the original starmiewalker….

>>723277504
That's why they went so hard with the lawsuit.

>>723248671
Pikaman!

>>723277612
These leaks are pissing me off

>>723277270
Add Bazz next to them and it will be perfect.

>>723277270
I like them both.

>>723279308
I don't see why the retard that made this image chose to use a decent mega.

>>723277525
This cat looks DUMB.

>>723259781
I played pokemon stadium so I'm immune to the shit moves on fully evolved pokemon take.

>>723279308
Unironically the starmie is growing on me...

>>723241484
>mega meganium
where is she?

>>723259781
There is nothing wrong with snarl. It's weird to see it on a sweeper, but it's otherwise a great move.

>>723237579 (OP)
This is funny and I like it, but for every one thing I see from this game I actually like, there's at least two things I don't.

>>723248073
This is a dead cat, isn't it?

>>723280441
does he look dead to you?

>>723272362
It’s not a mainline game
It’s a sequel to Arceus

>immediately realize Mega Starmie is a 80s tokusatsu villain
Is this what it feels like for people that recognize the yokai stuff in Yokai Watch?

>>723239549
Is there anything more that needs to be said? Why does GameFreak incite so much discussion? It literally does not matter how fucking garbage Pokemon games are, they consistently make a shitload of money and both fans and critics alike somehow praise them as good every single time. There is no incentive on part of GameFreak to put any effort into making a good game when this is the case.

>>723240158
So why is Scarlet and Violet the fastest selling game in Nintendo history if apparently the fans don't like it?

>>723249648
(_)'-o^o-'(_)

>>723281209
Yokais are cute.

>>723279308
Like clockwork.

>>723258879
this is the kind of chair woman sit on with a naked ass and tons of lube with a camera placed under it

>>723250171
A lot of them are references.

>>723282340
I've been living a lie.

I think they have inexperienced people modeling the new pokemon first and someone drawing them second.

That's why we see mesh stretching, copy-pasting and simple shapes.

>hope Feraligatr will be water dragon, to complete the trio of mega dragon starters with Charizard and Sceptile
>it doesn't even look water dark, just a shittier Totodile
Just fucking murder me already.

>>723284281
It's water/dragon.

Where is mega Typhlosion? Is there no mega Typloshion?

>>723284939
There's a list out there with every pokemen in the game.

>>723253720
dw anon, i'm sure next velma season will be fine, considering you hate the past so much

>>723284939
typloshion has bad reputation now

>>723277270
>pushing narratives through memes
ask me how i know the person who made this webm is 100% going to buy the game

>>723237579 (OP)
has science gone too far?

>>723237579 (OP)
>becomes water/fighting
>runs towards you to punch you right in the balls an there's nothing you can do about it.

>>723279875
I liked Starmie-man as soon as I saw it. It's not enough to get me to buy the game.

how hard will they fumble mega absol Z
mega absol is already one of the best looking megas, i can't imagine that they'll somehow pull an upgrade or even a sidegrade

>LA had all the plot reasons about being set in the past to give evolutions and regional forms to a lot of pokemon, including the starters
>LZA completely dropped the past plot so nobody got a new form and it's all just new megas
Every time I think I'm already disappointed enough in ZA, I remember a new reason to be disappointed.
Hope you guys enjoy Winds/Waves bringing back megas too because there's no way they'll drop the gimmick again right after adding so many new megas.

>>723238159
ISRAEL?

>>723282259
Why would tons of lube be placed with a camera under the chair?

these threads are peak artificial, coordinated bitching. Tertiaries are really something else.

>>723277525
The foul beast.

>>723289061
I still don't like how it looks, but I am glad that it's water dragon, thank you anon.

starthem/they

>>723273092
You die in real life.

>>723279308
Why would whoever made this meme use one of the new megas that actually looks good? Mega Excadrill and Pyroar are right there.

>>723237579 (OP)
Why does this have more soul and appeal to me than any pokemon game since black and white

>>723271129
Funny dead on arrival game has funny shank'n'run woman

It's awesome

>>723292829
True, oldfags who grew up on rby and gsc know that Pokemon is long dead

Starmie is fine as fuark

Need to show his hoodie down form

>>723296392

Fuck Gamefreak.
