I really need to play Crown Tundra to finish off the ones I'm missing: both new regis and ice horse. IceHorse and accidentally Articuno Get. Feels good. I just wish I had premier balls when I blundered into the bird on my way to the Crown Shrine. Oh well, I still need to catch it in Shield still so I can remedy that.

Game Freak tends to view most of their extra features in each game as one-off experiments that are dumped to make room for other ones in the next game. Its only when it becomes a quality of life essential to the Pokémon experience does it become a mainstay. Although that being said, it would be great if Pokemon could follow you in the overworld in BDSP and not just in that Amity Square that only allowed like 10 random Pokemon.

After finally getting into Sword, I'm incredibly happy with how cute I've been able to make my trainer, and am beginning to see why the Diamond and Pearl remakes are going to be a real step down.Gaius Marius posted:Man I don't trust anything after they cut follow pokemon and the pokenav, both universally loved and cut without a second thought by the cruel master Masuda I remember B2/W2 having a thing that made it easier to tell how many different kinds of pokemon were on a route or something, was that just a feature of the dex? I remember it being handy for hunting down those low encounter rate mons without directly looking up the tables on bulbapedia or whatever. Is that a feature that's existed in games after? I noticed Sword has a recommended catches based on stuff you've missed, but it also doesn't like, update to be relevant to where you are.

So I don't think it's going anywhere. SUMO had two good outfits and they were both post-game rewards Everything else was so half-assed its a wonder they ever bothered to put it in "Oh, you want to wear actual shorts as a boy? Screw you, capris are all you're getting."

I really hope the successor to Pokemon Camp isn't as abusable. I'm not a fan of the 'if you hug and play with your Pokemon enough, they can do all kinds of broken things in battle!'. I want to cook curry and things without the result being that my Pokemon are gonna bounce every time I send them out.

Are people using "following Pokemon" to mean something different than what Let's Go had for all of its Pokemon and Sw/Sh had for all Pokemon in the DLC zones?
|
# ? Mar 3, 2021 09:38 |

Chances are clothing is sticking around since it stuck around for 3 generations already. That being said I wouldn't expect it to be in BDSP since ORAS didn't have it.

Pretty big gently caress you in SwSh to have all "official" battles use the really lame uniform, at least we should be able to somewhat customize that. And once we're champion? We should be able to roll onto the field in whatever we want since Leon got to wear that cape and everything.

Get it together Gamefreak, GET IT TOGETHER!

The simplified look of the DPPt remakes gives me some hope that they'll bring back follow pokemon, but they'd probably have already shown that if they planned to include it. The last time we had follow Pokémon before Sword and Shield was Gen IV, after all.

Since the artstyle in-battle is different to the artstyle out of battle they can’t really just use the same Pokemon models that are already in the game for the battles and scale them down, they’d have to make and animate a separate overworld model for the 200 odd Pokemon in the game.

It's kinda strange how they're not even in Pokemon Go. Go introduced Pikachu Libre like a year ago, and this year Pokemon's doing all those virtual concerts, yet not a single hint of Rock Star Pikachu. It's not like Pokemon Go to leave potential pikachus on the table https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pikachu_variants#Pok.C3.A9mon_GO (this list doesn't even have christmas sweater pikachu, lucario hat pikachu, rayquaza hat pikachu, surfing pikachu, and mimikyu costume pikachu)

I do not care for Grapploct. Why will they not stay in these ultra balls? Why do they instead decide to die to hail? How dare they be resistant to the one catchrate enhancing status I have on me. How is an octopus you find literally in the water not part water type?!

They're also adding the modern conveniences of later Pokemon games... Which probably amounts to the game not being as hard as you remember or something. (it's probably just QoL poo poo introduced in later games like Bottle Caps, Ability Capsules Mints etc.)
