I'm starting to think pokemon go ruined the franchise because all we get now is cash grab slop instead of actual pokemon spin offs

I wish they would change the soulless 3D models we have now but since the Switch 2 is a continuation of the Switch I don't see that happening for a while.

I guarantee if Champions wasn't on mobile, we'd actually have Stadium tier animations.

>squandered on pvp shit
To recap:
>SWSH Tower is boring and too easy
>BDSP Tower is boring and too difficult
>SV doesn't even have a battle facility
You know things are dire when BDSP is the best at anything.

I don't know what you're laughing at, this is an example of the soul that has been sucked out of the games

Mobile would only affect the graphics quality, not the animations.

I can't believe they tried to market Champions as a successor to Stadium games when it's really just 3D Pokemon Showdown. This game has none of the swag Revolution has. It's kind of funny how people criticized Revolution for stripping the soul out of the Stadium games back then. Champions makes this looks like childsplay

For me it's the pokemon sizes
Yeah Gamefreak, I get it, you just typed in random numbers for how big the pokemon were back in the gameboy days and think you couldn't possibly retcon it
Counterpoint though: Rule of Cool. Every pokemon nowadays is so just dang small and pathetic.
