Re: Pokemon Game Discussion 2.0
Yeah lol. I have a feeling this is also why Nintendo is delaying any big announcements. Apparently it has to do with the supply chain being disrupted._JNavs_ wrote:Was going to get a switch with the most recent Poke game back in April, but apparently it seems like Switches became non-existent post-January.
Anyways, I started playing the Isle of Armor DLC. it's aight. I like the location and everything, but It would've been better at launch of sword or shield. If you've beaten the game already the thing is a cake-walk, although I do like it. It's the type of thing that if you hype up is sorta lame, but fleshes out the main game in a nice way. I have a feeling the later update will be more of a challenge as well.

I've always liked the original N64 game, so I'm pretty stoked about this.GIGAN05 wrote:New Pokemon Snap is a go.

Re: Pokemon Game Discussion 2.0
So a few days later I've been having a lot of fun with the restricted sparring. For those who don't know, once you beat Mustard, you get access to a "battle frontier" type special challenge mode. In it you pick a specific team of three Pokemon, and face off against 5 different teams of 3. The gimmick is that you can only heal twice, and the enemies are pretty strong. I've managed to just beat the Ice-Type with:
Arctozolt
Mr. Rime
Darmatian
It was a decent challenge, and the DLC made it easy to EV and IV train. I had fun with it, and it's fun making teams of three with one specific overlapping type. I can see this being something I put a lot of time into.
While the Isle of Armor DLC is a little short, and I still wish it had a little more regular trainer battles and was just a little longer (maybe include an extra battle against Hop/Avery, or some random trainers on the island), I had fun with it. I say it's worth it, assuming the next Expansion is bigger. This honestly felt like the type of expansion that gives players more options, easier to get new/old Pokemon, easier to get rare items, easier to get new moves etc... and serves as a nice "side-quest" to the main game. My hope is that the next expansion is longer, and has an actual dungeon, expands on the story, and works as a satisfying conclusion. Overall I liked it.

Re: Pokemon Game Discussion 2.0
I meant to comment on this, but it’s the type of thing of why. Why, why, why. I get why it might make sense as a business situation, but it comes at a time that ranking the reputation of Pokémon at this time isn’t such a good idea. I’ve been fine with other Pokémon spin-offs, but this was the first thing that has felt like a legitimate mistake to me.Giratina93 wrote:

May I introduce you to non-sexual Gardevoir fanart?

Has anyone seen the D&P leak that's been going around? I can definitively say that I prefer beta Garchomp over the final design.

Re: Pokemon Game Discussion 2.0
The garchomp is neat, I think that the final version has always been too “busy” for my liking. Beta Gible sucks though.

Re: Pokemon Game Discussion 2.0
My problem with the beta Gible line is that they don’t really look like Sharks, not until Garchomp anyways. When I first saw Gabite I wondered how anyone could think that this was a shark. It looks like a mammal.

Also, that Regigigas beta sprite looks so fucking atrocious. It looks so bad I doubt it’s even real.

I'm 100% sure that Giratina was modified from an Eeveelution sprite. Either Umbreon or Espeon.

Re: Pokemon Game Discussion 2.0
I don't mean to be Captain obvious here, but it's really unfair to judge the standards of explicitly beta things. We don't know what exactly the regigas spite was used for beyond it just being there. It could have been a proof of concept or a lot of other things to be quite honest.VoyagerGoji wrote:My problem with the beta Gible line is that they don’t really look like Sharks, not until Garchomp anyways.

Honestly, I'm equal parts hyped and terrified
Hyped because I love Sinnoh
Terrified that they'll it butcher up
Guess we'll just wait and see

Re: Pokemon Game Discussion 2.0
You can really tell the Sinnoh remakes were handed off to some developer usually responsible for assets/support work, I was expecting them to look at least as good as Let's Go. The other game I'm going to say less on because we don't know enough about it but my fear is that it's basically going to be "wild area but more" without any of the interplay between different gameplay systems that really justify open world games being open world.

Re: Pokemon Game Discussion 2.0
Legends looks neat, interested in hearing more about what that has to offer. But those DP remakes, the textures and backgrounds look really uninspired. Not really feeling it with that one. I kept watching thinking it was going to be for 3DS, but I forgot that these are all becoming Switch games...Giratina93 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 26, 2021 7:41 am []https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCAQb0kARAA[/]
