I love how they present Pokemon Smile, a thing for kids, on a presentation with just a bunch of nerds watching. Not the target audience at all.

Unless Gamefreak just thinks we all have bad teeth. /s

Bold of you to assume I’m not a child

at least in my heart

 

[Megadoomer]

I just watched the New Pokemon Snap trailer. I don't even recognize what feels like 60% of the Pokemon in there, and I still want that game.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Thoughts on the Pokémon presentation:

• What's with that black Pikachu in the background of the room?
• What the **** possessed them to make a game to encourage brushing your teeth?
• Pass on Cafe.
• **** YEAH! The return of Snap! Hope it has gyro controls and lasts longer than 2 hours.
• Pokémon GO stuff. Okay.
• Part two next week? Better have Detective Pikachu Switch in it.

Pretty nice all and all. Now to wait for work to end to play The Isle of Armor.

 

[TheMightyP]

Currently replacing my entire team for Isle of Armor.

So far, I have Bumeary, Jigglypuff (YES), and Abra.
Member 4 is Fan Rotom
Member 5 is Sharpedo

 

[SnakeFighter64]

How long until Hey You Pikachu 2?

Hey You Detective Pikachu starting Danny DeVito.

 

[Aurane]

Okay I just woke up and saw that Pokemon Snap 2 is a thing. Holy ****. I was NOT expecting that.

 

[Z25]

That first Pikachu in the background is very subtle but a very nice touch:

I’m 90 percent positive the Black Pikachu is there for black lives matter

 

[Hat N' Clogs]

he is Passinate, Loyal, Self-centered, chubby, loud burger loving nerd who just doesnt like Russia. The perfect Stereotype
View attachment 275060And I cant not love him

He looks like he's at a healthy weight to me, but ok lol

My favorite scene that I can remember is when him and England are at the bar, and the day after it's like...

England: "Oh my gosh I'm never going to drink again... "
America: "Dude can party! "

xD

 

[Gentlepanda]

for what it's worth, i feel like next week is almost certainly let's go johto

johto starters, johto legendaries, johto eeveelutions, the original two lets go games, and a few kanto pokemon you can catch in gold/silver's postgame

 

[Speed Weed]

.......well that's certainly one way of acknowledging the movement

 

[Deleted member]

Does anyone know how many new Pokemon and forms the Isle of Armor adds? If it's just Slowbro and Kubfu it would be kinda underwhelming.

 

[TheCJBrine]

People are theorizing next week’s big project is Let’s Go! Johto due to the Johto Pokémon and Let’s Go games in the background of the presentation. Why couldn’t Sakurai hint characters with his backgrounds?!?!

Would be cool if true, I liked Let’s Go! Pikachu. Of course, Sinnoh Remakes and/or regular remakes with normal wild battle mechanics would be cooler, but I’d still get a new Let’s Go.


Also, please give me the black Pikachu plush.

It makes a lot of sense. Niantic out a Pokémon Statement already, they posted the gif of Ash and Kiwawe being bro’s and they’ve been donating.

They haven’t made a big deal about it most because their audience is a lot of younger kids as well and it’s a value they already seem to preach heavily

the only brand new pokemon are kubfu, urshifu, and zarude, and slowbro is the only new form

I don’t even care that I don’t know half of them. I just like that they mawnchin on dem apples

 

[TheMightyP]

My Isle of Armor team has been completed.
It is a Buneary, Abro, Jigglypuff, Fan Rotom, Sharpedo, and Larvesta.

This of course isn't counting Kubfu.

Kind of a letdown, but thanks.

I think in one episode he pointed out that he was gaining weight but I I know in the comics, he worried about him gaining weight lol

All those burgers gotta go somewhere

 

[TheMightyP]

I'm like 20 minutes into the Isle of Armor, and I can already tell they put far more effort into this over the base game.

Aaaaaa
It all makes sense now! XD

Best shot in the trailer:

 

[Aurane]

I'm downloading the update as we speak. I also updated Home, and learned about two things. Firstly, the Zeraora raid event. I'll definitely be participating in that for the Shiny Zeraora. Neatly is the update to Home itself. You can no longer seek illegal or impossible trades.

Progress.

 

[Z25]

Klara’s encounter them and battle music is pretty damn good

 

[TheMightyP]

The now properly scaled Wailord is level 80.

 

[TheCJBrine]

You can no longer seek illegal or impossible trades.

THANK. ARCEUS.

No more taunting me with asking for my child Naganadel, punks!

of course I wasn’t going to trade it anyway, but seeing impossible trades clogging up the Zamazenta list was very annoying.

Gotta have something for the parents who haven't gone to work just yet.

...I would've just announced that on twitter. Rest, though, were neat~

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

why did it take the DLC for GF to make pokmon follow you again. THE DLC. not base game, the ****ing dlc

 

[TheMightyP]

WAIT, THEY BROUGHT BACK POKEMON FOLLOWING YOU?!

 

[Aurane]

WAIT WHAT

 

[SnakeFighter64]

i know this is extremely late but eh, what the hell
1. whenever star force/mvc discussion happens, i see harp note get thrown around a lot so i guess her
2. definitely jojo's bizarre adventure: heritage for the future. one of the best capcom fighting games imo

Thanks. I’m almost done with my latest MvC roster. It turned out pretty big. But since a lot of it is DLC.... it’s just on the tail end of possibility.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

WAIT, THEY BROUGHT BACK POKEMON FOLLOWING YOU?!

WAIT WHAT

yeah but whiles its cool its back, they dont even match your speed. Your normal move movement is to fast for some and they end up so far behind you the pop out and pop back in behind you or in cinderaces case, they run so fast they slam into your ass and slow down

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

Because they couldn't delay the game due to the anime. So cool stuff like that, which requires another model onscreen to animate as well as not cause any collision or others issues... takes a lot of time.

The one resources sadly they don't have. It sucks, but yeah.

My only annoyance with Gamefreak is them lying about the model reusage. There was no reason for that. It's understandable they can't program everything in a super short time limit and all. Just be honest about it. Rest? Seems fair to me. Short deadline to meet, so they can't do an amazing job with hardware they've only recently learned while putting in more than twice the amount of content that Let's Go had.

They also had a fair point that "cuts" were a normal thing. In reality, Pokemon is practically the only monster collection series where they didn't outright cut what monsters you could collect. Overall, we were hard spoiled on that. I want them all to come back, but yeah.

 

[Z25]

I’ve explored half the island so far and seen no new Galarian forms. That’s a little disappointing

It was confirmed that the only Galarian form is Slowpoke and Slowbro.

Not entirely surprised but a bit disappointing regardless.

 

[Lamperouge]

Snap coming back is neat, I guess.

So next week is probably reserved for more Pokemon and nothing else?

 

[Aurane]

Okay, we're all set! It's all updated! I'm leaping in!
