ENOUGH WITH THE BABIES
The babies are a blight to see every time I look up the roster of a Mario spin-off. You have over a hundred unique and original Mario characters and you resort to using baby versions of characters in the game?

I dunno. The Galar Pokémon so far have been rather meh for the most. Not the biggest fan of the designs.

Also, Dynamax is dumb. I’m sorry, but Mega Evolutions and Z-Moves were better in comparison to this.
But gigantamax gives Pokémon a new form and a crazy powered up move

It’s mega evolution and z moves

A thing I don't like about Pokemon is how they make almost all the Pokemon with the colour of their types.
There's so little variety of colour.

Almost all Fire Pokemon are orange or red.
Almost all Water Pokemon are blue (something completely ridiculous considering that in real life stuff like frogs and fishes can have amazing colours).
Almost all Fairy Pokemon are pink or white.
Almost all Electric Pokemon are yellow.
Almost all Poison Pokemon are purple.
Almost all Grass Pokemon are green.
Almost all Ice Pokemon are white or light blue.
Etc.

Bug and Flying are like the only exceptions.

They should make more Pokemon like Floatzel, with cool colours.
Drednaw was a cool surprise too.

It makes them giant. At least Mega Evolution gave some Pokémon a cool new form and Z-Moves were flashy, some of them like Decidueye’s were even cool.

I’m just saying, turning a Pokémon into a giants sound better on paper.

No bro

Dynamax makes them big

Gigantamax gives them a new form, like megas.

Part of that is so the player can indicate at a relative glance what type the pokemon is. First time players use those colors as cues to decide what types to use against it.

I don't disagree with you, but I think that's precisely why those colors are generally repeated.

Wait, Duraludon isn't the pseudo-legendary, is it?
Probably not. They're already advertising it as the rival to Tyranitar, so it can't evolve any further, and it seems like it's just a single-staged mon like Druddigon.

That’s why I got rid of all but Baby Mario and Luigi in my MK9 roster.

It would be interesting to think about from a design standpoint, like what kind of design would allow an Ice type to be red or a Fire type to be green?

Drednaw is a good boy but I won't lie, I'm REALLY not digging his Gigantamax form.

Just for that you get Baby Gooigi for complaining.

True. There are also the metallic characters!

But being serious, it is strange that they resort to babies over minions, Birdo, or others like Toadsworth.

You don’t appreciate his stronk chonk?
The way its legs and body are positioned makes it seem like the designer even realized it shouldn't be able to stand on two legs but did it anyway.

It just kinda sucks because, to me, Drednaw has the best design of the current Galar Pokémon but the Gigantamax version doesn't hold a candle to it.

Idk, they are fantastic animals with superpowers, they can do whatever they want.
Just make a green spider that can spit fire lol.

They just made him bipedal and massively shrinked his head.

I wonder if there'll ever be an Azura amiibo.

I mean, it's about as likely as a Solaire amiibo.

Or Banjo-Kazooie being in Smash.

Hmmm I feel like this is a design philosophy to help casuals determine that type they could be at first glance. The type's UI color matches these patterns. Obviously some are horribly wrong...

If you thought it couldn't get worse, Dr. Baby Daisy is something that could very well exist in our world. Before Dr. Funky Kong no less.

Nintendo, since the game was revealed: Just so you know, Dr. Mario World will have microtransactions
Gamers today, when they found out Dr. Mario World has micro transactions
I actually didn’t know they said that LOL

I’m a bit iffy on it, but it’s not in my control so no sense dwelling on it.

Huh.

AmaLee did a cover of Black Lagoon's theme, and this may be the first time that I actually think the original is way better.

I don't think her style matches the song at all.

Don't worry, eventually GF will stop including it in games. :troll:

Nintendo thought they were :shades: enough to buck the mobile ecosystem what with their ten dollar Mario game.

But dread it, run from it, microtransactions arrive all the same.
