Skeleton Ghost Eeveelution

View attachment 240807

I’m really hoping this is the case, as I love the Eevee line, and ghost type Pokémon have always been my favorite.

 

[Kirby Dragons]

Yeah, I don't even see the point of this livestream, or why they decided to have one in the first place.

 

[Aurane]

You know, if any of you aren't enjoying the stream, you're more than free to go do something else. I'm just saying.

 

[Kirby Dragons]

Hopefully Eevee doesn't get a Ghost Eeveelution, since it would break the trend of Eevee only evolving into Special types. If anything, they should create a brand new Pokémon with branched evolution that can evolve into the Physical types.

 

[TheCJBrine]

I'm actually somewhat enjoying the stream; while, yes, it's mostly boring, it feels good for the memes and the occasional Pokémon is nice.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Just let people enjoy it. There’s a surely a better way to express your opinions than sucking all the fun out of this livestream.

They have just as much of a right to be upset as you have to be hyped. And we’re all aloud to share our feelings.

 

[Z25]

Man better call stylesx2 because the salt is real.

If you honestly thought the stream was going to be constantly stuff for 24 hours when it was announced as basically a nature cam the. I don’t know why people bother watching g.

It wasn’t made to be a huge event, just a fun stream you can watch while doing other work or whatever

 

[Wademan94]

Also side note, the rumors were true:

I wasn’t really interested in this game before but it’s starting to get my interest now.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

I agree, but I also think we should express our opinions while not sucking the fun out of it for other people.

We’re not all aloud.

I’m very quiet.

Hey man, Im hating this stream bit You should see the house I build in DQB2 while it was on, its amazing

That amd I needed to do something while I get over the fact we gave the dog up

Can you call it fun? It seems to me that it's more like taking advantage of fans clamouring for information to get views and ad revenue on a livestream without actually having to give out much information, if at all.

Noipoi vs Sans. Pun-off.

I agree, but I also think we should express our opinions while not sucking the fun out of it for other people.

Unless you can prove their literally using some sort of emotional vacuum on you, i’ve learned from experience that other people’s opinions only ruin something for you if you let them.

Fastest way to clear a room. (Proceeds to make a me-shaped hole in the closest wall)

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

I mean, the way I see it, it’s good for fans and for the Pokémon company. The Pokémon Company gets their money, and the fans get some nice speculation fuel.

 

[Shadowwolflink]

I've said it over and over I want to like these games, but everything they've released so far just kills any hype I would have. They're out of touch.

here I thought fun was subjective. Silly me.

How exactly were they sucking out the fun if all they did was express their disappointment?

edit: nvm they ruined it, i can't defend them anymore

 

[Shadowwolflink]

I don't want to ruin anything for you.

Can you explain what you're finding fun about this livestream? I'm genuinely curious.

oh man, the communists in this website would hate you so hard right now

The way it was worded felt less like “here are my thoughts” and more so just stating everything they hate about the game, in a manner that isn’t really thoughtful.

 

[Rangez]

Well, I'm back. Looks like nothing's changed much.

 

[Cosmic77]

There's a difference between expressing disappointment and just being obnoxiously negative.

Disappointment: "This livestream isn't what I was hoping. Probably won't happen, but maybe we'll get something else afterwards to make up for it."

Negative Nancy: "This livestream is a perfect example of why Game Freak shouldn't develop Pokemon games. This is their fault. Plus the graphics are really bad and lmao I feel sorry for anyone who's actually wasting their time with this thing. Don't buy SwSh, buy DQXI instead."

 

[Aurane]

Morelull: "I'mma pass you by to say hi."

Lol okay that was kind of cute lmao

 

[Shadowwolflink]

The way it was worded felt less like “here are my thoughts” and more so just stating everything they hate about the game, in a manner that isn’t really thoughtful.

I mean, it was worded the way it was because I always like to infuse my opinions with some level of comedy and the idea of this megacorporation having the personality of someone who goes "SIKE!" Is pretty funny to me.

 

[Will]

Negative Nancy: "This livestream is a perfect example of why Game Freak shouldn't develop Pokemon games.

nancy aint thinking straight if they're saying the developers of pokemon shouldnt develop pokemon

 

[TheCJBrine]

The "Eeveelution" is likely actually Ponyta since people heard Ponyta's cry around that time.

I hope it's a kelpie or something; a monster Horse myth.

or this:



however, its second appearance does look kind of like an Eevee or something...but the bottom of its head is obscured...

 

[Aurane]

Better call Bungie to make the next Pokemon games smh

 

[Noipoi]

I don’t find it fun at all, actually. I think it’s very tedious and I hope they get to the real good stuff soon. But others are enjoying it, so I figure why not just let em have their little moment of fun? When the steam is done it’ll go right back to “SW/SH SUCKS” anyway.

A skeleton horse would be a pretty sick Pokémon, I won’t lie.

The pokemon behind Impidimp looked nothing like the pokemon from before, bar the white coloring.

 

[Kirby Dragons]

We don't have any skeleton Pokémon aside from . A skeleton Ponyta could be a good Ghost or Ghost/Ground-type.

 

[Shroob]

It's cute.

Is it 24 hours worth of cute?

No, hell no.

But it's cute. It's ultimately harmless.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Are people really acting like it's unfair to criticise 24 hours of this? If they confirm a maximum of 5 new Pokemon for a 24 hour game of Rachel and Ross then there's gonna be complaints

Here's a comparison:

You can't see its ears but it seems pretty close with the spiky mane/fluff/whatever.

god dammit Ross

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

I should probably actually start watching this stream, haha.

Here's my issue, there has been fan pushback since E3 in regards to the National Dex, animations, gyms, and a bunch of other negative things. They should be doing a bit of damage control, giving people upset a reason to rethink the situation, but instead they're doubling down on people who would buy the games no matter what happens and it's just pushing people like me further and further away.

That certainly doesn't sound like a company making smart decisions with their advertising.

This is weird. Yes I do see the comparison, but where's the green? Wheres the ears? Something ain't right here.

 

[Kirby Dragons]

As disappointing as the stream is, it doesn't kill my SwSh hype at all.
