Yeah, if Gen 8 started with only Kanto Pokemon, I'd just leave the series until all the Pokemon I actually like came back.

Screw genwunners.

Guys you're acting like Game Freak would lose money, they've been actively catering to Gen 1 heavily since idiots weren't happy that Black and White tried to be completely fresh
The Gen 1 starters in Gen 6 were harmless, the Alola Forms were harmless in Gen 7.

But this? This is trying too hard to please Gen 1 nostalgia. On top of wanting to integrate Pokemon Go.

Probably going to be the second Pokemon game I will skip.

Ehh...

I would actually like Eevee in Smash personally.
Yeah, Eevee's cool, but let's not right other Pokemon off though.

Beta max tapes?

*looks up*

Oh you mean home movie tapes?

Bruh who even remembers those without prompting? VHS tapes are where it's at.
Nah sis, Laser Disc is what's in this cenntury.

considering i'm a tiefling i like hell :V

anyway i don't wanna light ya on fire cause i rather have ya pepper uni with more bullets, more use that way :tired:

yup
Depends on which level of hell your from though :v

Shoot Uni? Okay. :v


That is something I can only fully share with the enlightened.

The kaleidoscope of infinity that is the existential stream is not for the weak to witness.
Maybe, I'll believe you if you get your horn back, but seeing as red is never giving it back, that'll never happen :v

Go big or go home :V
Still wasted effort.

Cause there's no need to burn me, when I can just shoot you again

1486955438012_1.png
:troll:

if i don't burn lily you get more suffering :V

not a win win, but one win greater out weights the other win
Anyhow, why burn me when you can just burn Uni?

tbh, I would be the angriest you all will ever see me at a pokemon game if they pulled this.
Oh same here. I'm normally pretty patient with dev decisions, but if they pulled this stunt heads would start rolling.

Genwunnerism is a plague that should never be rewarded and Gen 1 has the suckiest Pokemon to boot.

Take it you skipped Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon then?

And yeah, it would be pandering to much to Gen 1, also means my fav Pokemon Sylveon and Absol wouldn't be in the games, which I would not be happy about.

I love Sylveon as my adorable Dragon Slayer.

At this point, if Game Freak decided to appeal to Gen 1 fans again, well... from something I read, it would basically be the equivalent of a financial failure. I doubt anybody wants that to happen as I don't think Gen 1 needs to be represented for the fourth time now. If anything, I'd be more happy with Gen 4 remakes or even just a brand new game in the series (Gen 8) then I would with another Gen 1 remake.

"Real Leaks" is at it again.



You may begin to laugh/outrage/etc, etc.
You all scrolled here.

You've heard it by now.

So you don't need me saying this is a pile of bull****.

But guess what it is.

Wait, are you saying Betamax tapes outlasted VHS Tapes, jesus ****ing christ, I feel even older now.

But still, you love your laser discs, right old man? :troll:
Aight so.

First up, hard to say. Last VCR was manufactured in 2016. Last major VHS release was 2006. But I haven't been able to track down the last date of manufacture for VHS tapes themselves. Presume they're still actually going so some Sundance Festival darling can record some authentic hipster trash or something.

Second, I'm over here in 'Murica. We didn't give a **** about Laserdisc brand new. Don't give a **** now. If I've ever even been in the same room as a LaserDisc player I'm not aware of it.

Third, apparently LaserDisc lasted until 2000 or 2001, and the last player was built in '09.

Fourth, this is a Windows 3.1 game. Why haven't you gone after that fossil directly?

Fifth, probably because 3.1 support lasted about as long as LaserDisc. Ended support in '01, you could still buy OEM licenses till '08.

And sixth, almost every last bit of this - except 3.1 - predates me by decades. I just grew up around a lot of hand-me-down tech, so now I enjoy it for aesthetic reasons.

Still younger than thirty.

Get at me.

Alolan Forms were great other than the fact there were like 11 of them, and them being Gen 1 exclusive. Gen 1 also had the most Megas in XY and barely has the second most Megas after ORAS.

Meanwhile I am STILL absolutely livid we never had Hydreigon turn into a literal ****ing tank LIKE IT'S ORIGINAL CONCEPT WAS GOING TO BE GODDAMN YOU SUGIMORI I WANT TO SEE THAT AS A REALITY AND CALL IT BUILD TANKTANK

well i have basic tiefling heritage so that means i was descended from a type of devil, which one isn't specified at all and since it came from a cursed bloodline of ordinary humans it had to be from at least a devil of some presitage as a lesser ones bloodline would travel that far in generations

thats about it though, i don't know enough of lore to tell which layer thats from though

thank ya~

Anyhow, why burn me when you can just burn Uni?
cause i recently ate and am full to the point that i don't wanna get up and chase him down :tired:

Yes, I skipped Ultra Sun & Moon. The plot had minimal changes and the only good thing is bigger post game. That’s skip worthy for me.

Also, if I CAN’T have my Aromatisse or Primarina, why bother?

I can’t blame you, I want my Mega Mecha King Hydreigon too. Broken or not, that **** would had been awesome.

Good point on the Megas being mostly Gen 1 related too.

If they feel the need to only make gen I Pokémon available, at least make it so every gen I-related Pokémon can be caught:
This is a gen VI picture, so no Alola forms.

"Eevee in Smash"

Hahahahahahahahaha. Like that will ever happen.

The thing with Pokemon fans is that they will always find at least one Pokemon that will be in Smash and be wrong all the time.

Remember Sceptile and Zoroark? Both never happened and we got Greninja. So we will get a Gen 7 Pokemon over the likes of more Gen 1 pandering.

If they dare make a Kanto-only game, then that new Pokémon, etc. thing better be god damn true, because that would be its only saving grace.

As well as this.

Tell that to the Eevee fans who are saying that ever since the leak popped up.
I'm an Eevee fan and I still don't approve this message.

They want to give me an Eevee-centric game? Fine. Red's on board all day long. Kanto only? Not on your life. If I want to go play with Red and Blue's mon list I'll go play Red and ****ing Blue.

All I really want Eevee-wise out of the next gen are some new Eeveeloutions to squee over.

I am a simple man. I simply want my foxcats.

"Eevee in Smash"

Hahahahahahahahaha. Like that will ever happen.
Also inclined to agree here.

Put it in the pokeball rotation, sure. But the roster ain't happening.

had turkey biscuits and gravys
See?

That's love right there.

Let's settle things with red then :evil:
Sure buddy.

You just keep that dream alive.

So your not actually from hell then, which is fine, hell is more of a frozen wasteland, in my setting :v

Your welcome. And sounds lovely.

Alolan Forms were great other than the fact there were like 11 of them, and them being Gen 1 exclusive. Gen 1 also had the most Megas in XY and barely has the second most Megas after ORAS.

Meanwhile I am STILL absolutely livid we never had Hydreigon turn into a literal ****ing tank LIKE IT'S ORIGINAL CONCEPT WAS GOING TO BE GODDAMN YOU SUGIMORI I WANT TO SEE THAT AS A REALITY AND CALL IT BUILD TANKTANK
Yes give us region variants for other Gens.

I love that Absol got a Mega, but it should have gotten the Flying typing on it mega, dang it.

Yes, I skipped Ultra Sun & Moon. The plot had minimal changes and the only good thing is bigger post game. That’s skip worthy for me.

Also, if I CAN’T have my Aromatisse or Primarina, why bother?
Fair reason, I got it, but I got Ultra Moon, since I already had Sun.

what ya have in mind? :V
Uni Firing Squad? Since I fire bullets at him and you set him on fire :v

Let's settle things with red then :evil:
Nah, there's no need, let red keep your horn :v

Really funny... :glare:
Sounds like you need shooting a again. :v

I would put all the pitchforks down first.

The leak is probably not as literal as it sounds.

Remember that Pokemon World Championships are held every year so it's pretty doubtful we'll see a Kanto-only roster as it would be a PR suicide (this also applies to the battle system change rumors I've been seeing.)

Gonna play devil's advocate and say this move isn't the "business suicide" people are making it out to be.

It's gonna piss off the Pokémon diehards but Gen 1 is far and away the most iconic Pokémon generation overall to the wider public. It's still gonna sell, and kids will eat up anything with the name Pokémon on it. On top of this, the majority of people complaining about it are still gonna buy it because they're Pokémon diehards, and it's still the first HD, main series Pokémon game, and is STILL handheld as an option.

Personally, as someone who "fell out of love" with main series Pokémon games due to them basically just relying on new 'mons and new forms for old 'mons without actually making many meaningful advancements to the gameplay since about Gen 3 or 4, I would actually really like a Pokémon game that goes back to basics in terms of the Pokémon line-up and returning to Kanto if it meant they could really experiment with the gameplay, which is what the series really needs.

At the end of the day, it's the first HD, main series Pokémon game. It was never going to have the biggest line-up of Pokémon, and you'd be a fool if you thought they could design tons of new Pokémon in HD while also making HD models for old Pokémon. This game seems like it's going to be very much a stepping stone and will be very experimental. Personally, I really appreciate that thought. If how I'm feeling about the project is any indication, it will be the Sonic Mania of the Pokémon franchise - a game that aims to bring in people who used to love Pokémon, but fell out of touch with it, rather than solely appealing to the fans who buy everything with the name "Pokémon" on it already.

I don't find Eevee playable in Smash too likely myself. But that's more due to how to make its iconic gimmick work well.

Eevee had many, MANY chances to be in the Smash roster, and didn't make it every time. Even with an Eevee centric game, I highly doubt it would boost up Eevee's chances.

Holy crap... I just got accepted for a study abroad program I applied to that’s going to Japan. ;-;

After being declined once and not getting off the waitlist for another one, I can’t believe that it’s happened now.
