One part of me is super excited for this game (albeit cautiously) and really wants to see more of it, while the other wants to focus on having a life and not thinking about it until it comes out.

My contract for this job ends this week so I should start thinking about where my life goes next.

Just be clear though, they both look bland as ****.

How do you have a spain region and the best you can do is white bread and whiter bread
GF once agaun not relizing that Afro-Spaniards exsist. GF, for the love of god, stop ignoring us. Stop with all the White Bread. I see enough of it at the store

Fr, at least toast that ****. Hell, burn it. Make the next protags burnt toast.

Also, I am now once again asking for black hairstyles.

Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly. They’re the starters of the games that were just announced!
xD Oh Ok I just looked it up, stopped keeping up track with Nintendo games...I cannot believe that I am saying this but the cat is ADORABLE. And this is coming from a not-cat person. Of course it will also depend on how they look by the end. :3 Wonderful job drawing them, Noi!

From the official website:

"Various towns blend seamlessly into the wilderness with no borders. You’ll be able to see the Pokémon of this region in the skies, in the seas, in the forests, on the streets—all over! You’ll be able to experience the true joy of the Pokémon series—battling against wild Pokémon in order to catch them—now in an open-world game that players of any age can enjoy."

This to me seems to imply that it's even more open than PLA was. I hope they keep the fast paced combat of that game if nothing else, that could make or break the game for me.

Welp... .did not expect to get Gen 9 so soon. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, eh?

I'm a little skeptical given how soon it is because given an assumed November released that would essentially be THREE rpg pokemon games releasing in one year, which is a bit much tbh, but it definitely looks promising regardless. New region appears based on Spain and with a confirmation of it being a seemless open world, there's a ton of potential for this to be one of the best pokemen games. Still would've liked the developers to give the game a little more time to cook. Starters I'm honestly a little reserved about, but that could also be due to the disappointment of the Galarian starters so hopefully they'll turn out better. Of the three I'm most interested in the fire croc, so we'll see how that one turns out. With practically no context I'm leaning towards Violet, but we'll see how the box legends turn out, as I usually grab my version based off of that and other exclusives.

With all that said....my wallet is hurting this year. Now there's too many games that I want that are set for this year and we're still only in February.


BTW, I haven't said anything here but Legends Arceus has my full attention, there's clearly a lot of issues with the game but it's the most fun I've had with pokemon in ages.

The more I'm looking into press releases, yeah, they've been very quick to let people know it's gonna play like PLA.

I wonder what that means for comp? Surely, they're planning on bringing abilities back into the mix, yeah?

Maybe...Just maybe...Use PLA's EV IV system? 👀 👀 👀

Don't bring in PLA's EV and combat systems, they're great for single player but would kill competitive.

Just improve and streamline the traditional systems instead.

So when do you guys think we'll get more info on these new games?
The riddler said big things in April. Arceus isn’t getting anything else, so that means we have to be seeing this game then.
I have to know, is the bdsp Shaymin shiny locked?
In prior versions it wasn’t, so it shouldn’t be shiny locked now. You can also run away, leave flower paradise and go back in to hunt it, rather the. Reset.

I may not be a competitive Pokemon player but from what I've seen everyone's saying no one likes the traditional systems anyway
