You think it'll do SwSh numbers?
That depends.

SwSh did so good because it was the first core Pokémon in the switch. Historically the first on a console does great (D/P, X/Y) while the second gen on said console doesn’t do as well (B/W, S/M). Many people have had their fill after one Pokémon game on the console.

However the difference here is this isn’t just another generation, this is something entirely new and exciting. I think it’ll sell just under Sw/Sh, but still very well.

Very niceu, ngl

be prepared to do it 7 times over though
Oh yeah, nothing short of what I was expecting. And honestly the style is probably gonna be a tad different once it’s finalized. I’ll likely make it a wee bit more detailed. I want to to look simple, but not too simple.

I thought I was gonna have graphics like a Gameboy Advance or early DS game until I figured out sprite work is tricky as hell. I’ll probably go for something simpler:nifty:

I hope they make toys based on the Smoll DP characters.
Their perfectly for a blind bag like toy.
Pokemon SwSh was also pretty much GF's first time working on Switch hardware. They've been handheld exclusive up until recently. I've been saying that since before the dexit controversy.

You can see something similar with Three Houses. A lot of the textures and enviroments are just...eh. People just forgive that game for it because it makes up for it in other ways and doesn't have some Dexit controvery attached.
That doesn't expplain Lets go, which looks better than Sword and shield on a technical level.

Oh yeah it’s tough stuff. Usually what I do is that I make a rough outline with a normal pen that basically acts as a base, then I make the actual pixel art on another layer. That’s what I did for this art, for example. It helps!

I probably need to upgrade my drawing supplies soon.... my eraser is on the verge of going kaputt.

Good thing I’m getting paid tommorow.

Cats is both ridiculous and insane, yet not ridiculous and insane enough to be a trash masterpiece.

A trashsterpiece if you will.
That's the worst thing a film can be: terrible AND boring.

The Room may be terrible, but at least it's hilarious. Same with Neil Breen films, or Sharknados.

But be terribly written, directed, AND be boring as heck? You get this movie. I felt similarly on Holmes & Watson with Will Ferrell, only THAT one I rage quit. This one I haven't rage quit yet, but I'm getting close to it.

  1. I have made practically Joker/Queen/Fox/Mona my main team
  2. I also got used to Ann and Sophia enough to find uses for them here and there
  3. Now I am able enough to use them all when I feel like it
  4. ...and of course I ended up changing tbr difficulty from normal to easy...thanks first boss fight...Alice your shadow may dress like a stripper and is impossible to find attractive...but I can give you a touch of sympathy...also I will now see her as an evil version of Pokimane
  5. PERSONA!!!!!

Well now that the emotional pain of being rejected for Smash is over, time for the physical!

Rex: I'm not even fighting in Smash!
Nia: Aren't you part of Pyra and Mythra final smashs?
Rex: Oh. Right. I forgot.

Alright, I rage-quit Cats. It's not AS bad as Holmes and Watson, but it's still one of my least favorite films I've seen to this date.

Shocker /s
:p

Sucks that the Pokémon Xenoverse wiki is unusable

Not only is it only in Italian, but it's very incomplete. :/
Probably wouldn't be that hard to make your own.

The hardest parts would be organization and the actual coding, although the big orgs like Fandom and Gamepedia already handle the hard parts.
