The thing is there shouldn't be nostalgia involved at all
Nostalgia is one of Pokémon's strongest weapons though, I don't think there's a franchise out there that's more heavily affected by it, so I'm sure they'll prioritize Gen 1-4. I expect Gen 1 will be there in its entirety since they already have all the assets from Let's Go, which is sure to get a lot of people mad and screaming about the ever infamous Kanto bias.

Lemme see if I understand this.

The world is your oyster, and you want me to slap on the eyes of basic-*** anime ************ #375?
This is Nagito we're talking about. This ************ played Russian Roulette with 5 bullets and won.



Fine then, put on these eyes and this smile instead:

The models are just Sun and Moon but upscaled but poor poor Biggest Franchise On The Planet can't afford hiring a bigger team I suppose
Gwen I know you're in full "Brands are Evil" mode right now but that literally isn't true. Some Pokémon, if not most, have entirely new models. One look at Growlithe confirms this.

No, the "Galar dex" is the collection of Pokémon, old and new, that are catchable in Galar.

Likely they're only gonna cut about 400 Pokémon forever
Okay but like, every region has its 'Dex'.


The games after SWSD will have the missing Pokemon.

Does anyone know if this tune is going to be in the new B&K stage?
I dunno if it's been unveiled or not. But it better be.
We have no idea what music will be in either stage. I'd think that it would be, given the presence of Grunty in the stage, but we probably won't find out until much closer to their release.

Well I know Spiral Mountain's bgm has been confirmed. I was checking to see if that was too. XP

So I realize that I, along with staindgrey staindgrey are looked at as the “Resident Evil” dudes, but I have to say, the fact that they’ve got all but 2+3 on Switch (even if the quality is suspect) is pretty awesome.

While I wouldn’t necessarily say the presentation of it was at the same level as Dragon Quest XI, they did make a big deal out of the fact that there’s a selection of RE games on the Switch.

Call it a hunch, call it bias, whatever you want to call it. I think there’s a chance Resident Evil might be the pick from Capcom.

At this point, even if i’m not sure how it would work, I could see them doing Chris, Leon, AND Jill as costumes either each other.

Thoughts?

The official BK account said on Twitter that yes, the song in the trailer would be in the game.

I tried to look up at how the japanese reacted to the smash reveals just to see if there was a difference in how they reacted.
While they definitely were excited for the Heroes, what surprised me is that they were also excited for Banjo and Kazooie.
This is the stuff that I like to see man, just people enjoying things.

2:34 for the Dragon Quest reaction
7:32 for the Banjo & Kazooie reaction

I didn't actually know that but I admittedly jumped to conclusions due to it looking like upscaled SM. Still rather disappointed about that regardless

Honestly, maybe I'm looking in the wrong places, but I'm seeing the Hero salt kill the Banjo hype.

Like, it's pretty much a Bayonetta and Corrin situation, though not as severe.
You should migrate to the Erdrick support thread. Even people who were incredibly pessimistic about how Erdrick would be received turned around.

So I wonder when we're getting more info on the characters.
I'm expecting more Hero details at the Tree House at some point, since we're probably only a few weeks or so away from his release.
Banjo & Kazooie will probably be whenever we get another Direct.

RIGHTFULLY SO

****ING ********!
I mean, since they have already done all the assets for them, there's literally no reason to cut any of the Kanto Pokémon considering cuts are only done because of time restrictions. People will throw hissy fits anyways though, because just the word Kanto makes people see red these days, so logic just flies out of the window.

RIP Typhlosion. There's no way he's in the dex when Charizard's already showed up.
Starters are 100% going to take priority, I don't see them getting even near the chopping block.

Well... I wonder whats gonna happen in here when i refresh from page 343...

I still have Nintendo characters I want, but with more and more third parties, this game is really becoming insane and wonderful to a level I could only dream.

Yet still I dream harder. For more characters from more games.
Resident Evil.
Mortal Kombat.
Fallout.
Minecraft.
Crash Bandicoot.
Tomb Raider.
Ace Attorney.
Assassins Creed.
Bomberman.
Spyro the Dragon.
Tekken.
Tetris.

I'm sorry to report that, due to a desire to teach children of the rampant deforestation harming animal species, the Smash team is cutting Banjo from the game and replacing him with a cow farm.

The only major complaint I have with the Hero is that they took the sword and spell gimmick I wanted Celica to have, but with a broadsword as opposed to a more rapier-like one lol.

Even if the missing pokemon don't end up getting patched into Sword / Shield, it's not like they're getting wiped from existence forever. If that were they case, they probably wouldn't even be compatible with Pokemon Home.

I don't know if it'll be Pokemon Gun or Sinnoh Remakes or what, but they'll be back eventually. It's not like they're getting permanently retconned out of existence. Yet some people are acting like they are...

Kanto isn't just about nostalgia.
It's in more than half of all generations.
People who argue this hold Pokemon to a different standard than every other series.

There's absolutely no reason that Pokemon should be considered differently.
