Hau had Alolan Raichu, so maybe.

I love Reuniclus so I’m down for it getting a new form.
What would its type and concept be, though? Since the Reuniclus line has a cellular vibe to it, I don't see a whole lot of types that immediately come to mind with that mesh well with that subject.

They could try different types of cells, like neurons, or muscle cells (as essentially aforementioned,) or plant cells that have an armored cell wall around them, ect.

I've been watching that Guilty Gear trailer at least once a day. I'm not even a GG player, but after playing DBFZ and watching GGXRD, it's hard not to get excited just watching how their already crazy visuals are evolving even further.....BEYOND!

I mean yeah, which is why you should probably be directing your anger/dissapointment at the Pokemon Company and not Gamefreak.

When Anthem ended up as a rush job did you blame Bioware or EA? Sure Bioware made a lot of questionable decisions in development but the ones pushing a deadline were EA, the publishers.

Pokemon Company has even more on their plate due to needing to organize the t.v shows, tcg, and everything else along with the game. You can criticize them for putting less attention/priority to the game side of things, and you can criticize Gamefreak for the issues Bidoof mentioned, but at the end of the day the shorter timeline is a Pokemon Company thing.





Oh man if they actually gave Reuniclus one I'd be so damn happy.

I like a lot of gen 5 pokemon but Reuniclus is a huge favorite that doesn't really get seen all that much.

I’d be more than happy to do that if Gamefreak weren’t spinning lies about “cutting the dex for better animations” and stuff like that.

Contreras, I just found out that my mother has the worst videogame take ever spelled.

Worse than Snakefighter64 preferring DMC2 over 1 and worse than me disliking the Doom series...

She claims that the Moon theme from Ducktales is just loud noise and not music.

You take the moon.

And you take Star Lord's father.

You take everything that seems cool to explode.

Honestly, I highkey stopped caring for the National Dex a while ago, and honestly, it seems like a lot of fans are getting sick of the discussion.

With that said, it seems as if now people are claiming that the graphics look like an upscaled 3DS game, and...
I don't see it?

Isn’t that the same type of thing we give crap to companies like EA and Activision for?

You know, not caring about the quality of a product and only caring about meeting deadlines for investors?
That's just one piece of the "***** you, EA" pie.

People just don't hate EA for rushing games. They hate them for loading their games with Activision, putting next to no soul and passion into their projects, and the games often just not even being fun in the end.

Making sure SwSh is out by Christmas this year isn't just because they want to please investors, it's because delaying the games will completely screw over several other companies with their own SwSh related media preparing to launch this holiday. Delaying the game would actually cause chaos for all the companies involved in the anime and all the various types of merch from toys to clothing, including all the investors of those companies and their employees.

It's not a matter of "If we delay the game we lose that holiday boost, but release a better game next year and ultimately get better publicity and sales."
It's a matter of "If we delay the game we destroy the entire holiday season plan for several other companies, piss off not only our own but other companies' investors, and damage the relationship the Pokemon Company (our superiors) have with the other media companies, with the reward of angry internet people being less angry."

If SwSh got delayed you'd see a bunch of gaming journalists and social media posters singing GameFreak's praises.
What you wouldn't see is the hundreds of higher ups and employees at different countries losing their minds, because their pay for the next year just got slashed to appease a vocal, but really small minority of Pokemon fans.


As for "not caring about quality," that's just incorrect.
While I'll still fault GameFreak for considering Mega Evolution a one-time gimmick when fan's loved it and cutting it, and for failing to give a good reason for the loss of the national dex, saying they are putting no love into these games at all is just ridiculous.
They didn't need to make wide open areas with free camera control.
They didn't need to bring back regional variants AND expand them beyond Gen 1.
They didn't need to make new evolutions for old Pokemon, something we haven't seen since Gen 4 and fans wanted ever since.
They didn't need to pay close attention to all the little details that help the worldbuilding, such as the sponsors on Leon's back.

They could've just made another game with some new Pokemon, a new story, fixed camera and linear routes, but they didn't because even if some of their passion is misguided, it's still there.

I mean it's not a lie technically, there are new animations for stuff. The thing about it is that it's a weak excuse, and they've gotten plenty of justified criticism for that already.

At the same time though, it's not like they were gonna go "Yeah our publisher that's responsible for providing us the IP to make these hugely successful games is putting us on an extremely tight schedule so... no dex." They could outright lose the opportunity to make any new Pokemon games if they said that, and considering how successful these games are, they're definitely not going to ruin that relationship.

This stuff is just what happens when you make something a yearly franchise using the same development team. Quality dips down and they have to cut corners in order to make release. That combined with the fact that this is their first console game (which means they have to create a lot of assets from scratch) and it makes sense why they had to drop Pokemon.

I've been very critical of Game Freak in the past, but I don't fault them for the dex situation. It's something that's bigger than their development team.

I not only prefer 2 over 1. I prefer 2 over 3.

If that person's 3DS makes games look like this, tell me where they bought it, because I want my games to look as clear as this too.

There's a few jagged lines here and there, but even then, it still looks really good. For the most part, I think we're well past comparing this to the Wii, and we're sure as heck past comparing this to the Gamecube.

This was posted on 4Chan some days ago aparently:

https://boards.fireden.net/v/thread/473284895/#q473284895

Doomguy is a mix between his classic look and his modern look, while the full on modern look is a skin. They really went all out on his moveset. His stage is literally called "smash.wad"

Agumon is the final character to end off the pack. He is still in very early development as of right now. But I know that his moveset is based primarily off of the Digimon Battle Arena games.

Bandana Waddle Dee is in development as a free extra if you bought the fighters pass. Pretty ****ty if you ask me.

What you guys think?

I would actually buy Doomguy if the thing about that design happens.

The stage name kills this leak for me doh.

Agumon however does sound completely reasonable.

Fake. I really doubt augomon(sorry) and doom guy doesn’t feel likely.

Also we know Sakurai doesn’t acknowledge characters in Kirby he didn’t make.

Sounds pretty reasonable tbh. I'm sure they'd sell waddle dee to the rest of us later they did with mewtwo and plant. Probably fake though.
