I liked the deep voice Sonic had in Frontiers, and would not mind it being used for Super Sonic specifically (as a small way to make base and super sound different enough)

…also I just want the deep voice to be heard again just cause…

Honestly, a part of me wonders if they're leaning into the "This movie is soo ass" intentionally.

It'd be a hell of a marketing stunt with a high chance of failure if the movie actually is ass.

Speaking as someone who is researching logos to base Pokemon off of, I've noticed online talk of logos amounts to:
75% weird kids making weird YouTube videos and sharing weird comments
20% normal talking about logos and past experiences with them
5% dictatorships (luckily this isn't an issue anyore)

Whenever I go back to playing classic Final Fantasy VII I'm going to make sure I battle a Cactuar.

My first exposure to Final Fantasy was watching a series of Newgrounds animations starring Cactuar and Tonberry many moons ago.

I've been having an amazing time design logo-inspired Pokemon, so here's a bunch of logo-mons I designed for certain classic Pokemon archetypes
Logomon Rodent!.png

Based on Boje Buck Filmproduktion
Logo Pikaclone!.png
Based on Walt Disney Home Video
Logo Regional Bird!.png

Based on Swan Productions (seen on The Carrier)
Logo-Based Dog Mon.png

Based on Mad-Dog Producitons (seen on the TV show Outlaws)
Logo Regional Bug!.png

Do I really need to say which one this is based on?
Logo Pseudo!.png

I won't name this particular logo as it has a pretty brutal jumpscare on there, plus some blood, but I was just really proud of this one

Iron leaves and walking wake whenever Gamefreak runs out raid ideas ( they can’t give us mythicals because that would break the economy)

Raids feel like they had soo much more potential to 'em, but they just didn't.

They were 'fine', and had some neat ideas like Mewtwo's, but like.... Feels like they could have done more with 'em.


That, and they stopped doing Mightiest Marks right before the Paldea starters, meaning you're still stuck with basic ***** Pokeballs/whatever is in GO.

Completely agree. Mewtwos was the only notable one imo, and that’s mainly because mew getting Omni boosted for it was a fun idea. Would have been interesting to see something like that encouraged for other special raids.

Like let’s say they applied this to non legends and you could get a special mark covernknight. Perhaps brining tinkaton to the fight gives it an advantage. Things like that would have at least kept them fresh.

I honestly expected raids to get pushed to the side and for the DLC to just do Tera Type Adventures, where they do the Dynamax adventures but again. Using Terra types and stat changes would make for powerful fights and be a great way to expand the terra raid concept.

How cool would it have been to like

Have 5 special raid dens each with a Regi inside of it, and then once you catch them all, you can find a 7* raid with Regigigas.

I know they basically did it already in Sword/Shield(And they wouldn't do it right now since they still want you to buy Sword/Shield and its DLC) but c'mon.

Tbf this kinda feels more like a direction issue, the games are all seemingly one and done takes with Kirk Thorton saying that for Dark Beginnings they actually called the cast back in to rerecord those lines and surprise surprise, Karen Strassman's Rouge didn't sound utterly terrible like usual, then in ShadGens, her Rouge was **** again. Kirk Thorton himself seems to have finally gotten the hang of the role to the point after learning more about the character and not playing him as some highschool bully or something. Especially if RCS does well in some areas but less in others, though for Frontiers they specifically wanted a deeper voice for Sonic which explains why he's like that
Funnily enough I think Frontiers is RCS's best performance as Game Sonic.

Pokémon Masters finally has a character that hails from a completely different universe:
IMG_4384.jpeg


Unlike the previous protags, Florian comes from a completely different universe. Having been lured here by Hoopa.

This is probably to play off of the paradox story, but this does technically mean characters from spinoffs or even the manga are fair game. Although the later is probably unlikely.

Regardless it opens up the possibilities of doing stories with characters we know but under different circumstances. Like what if they had a version of Brendan where he’s from the rainbow rocket universe and lost to Team Magma?

A lot of potential for where they could go with this concept, so I hope they expand it.
