What Pokémon?
Where?!

That's been a pretty common complaint, actually, that they're reusing some of Hau's animations for Hop. I don't think it's really that bad because it's only a couple of poses that are used, like the "talking while moving his hands a lot" animation, but the pose that's feeling like his """main""" pose definitely looks unique enough. To be honest, I'm getting more Barry than Hau from what we've seen of him.I'm watching the overview video again. Did anyone else notice how Hop poses exactly the same way as Hau does? Then there's that train scene with Hop and the MC, which seems an awful lot like the ferry trip with Hau...
Hop is starting to feel like Galarian Form Hau. Don't get me wrong: I like Hau, but c'mon GF... I wanted something different this time.
General word of advice - just because you don't know why a feature wasn't included, doesn't mean that reason was laziness. Most of us aren't game designers, and the few glimpses we get behind the scenes rarely paint the full picture of just how much work goes into game design.Remember everyone. Scaling can exist in Pokemon. Gamefreak are just too lazy to scale each pokemon to their respective heights. Gigantimax proves that the switch can handle the largest Pokemon against the smallest one on screen.
As for Frozen just go during the day but than again I have gone for kid movies here in LA and it is never busy. Saw Spiderman,Endgame and D.Pikachu and I either have the place to myself or it is only a few people. Now maybe it is due to being in LA and we have tons of places but at the same time I would think it would still be busy Day 1 here. Again maybe my luck for this stuff is just good I'm getting scared
Weird we have a decent amount of that you can make videos for while some poketubers are doing videos about obviously fake starter evolutions. Been critical of aDrive but he's been mostly moving away from covering most of the fake rumors
I don't buy it. Maybe 20 years ago that was true, but if they still don't realise it nowadays after selling pokémon games for over two decades that would just be wilful ignorance on their side. They obviously wouldn't label it as scummy, but let's be real here. The only reason version exclusivity is a thing is to get people to buy what is essentially the same game twice. No other franchise does this because no other franchise would get away with it, pokémon only gets away with it because that's how pokémon has always been. GTA doesn't sell two versions of the same game with 90% the same missions and 10% version-exclusive missions, 90% same cars and 10% version-exclusive cars. Fans would consider that scummy. But that is essentially what pokémon does, and has always done. Other franchises might hold back a titbit of content and release it as "premium" or "deluxe" content, or as DLC, but it's rare that relatively small amounts of additional content cost the same as the base game.
Yeah even taking "Creator-Provincialism" into account there's no way that they are that naive. I mean if they weren't aware of that there wouldn't be bundles of the two versions with pre-order bonuses...
Plus if Gamefreak supposedly listened to their western fans about not revealing so much prior to release this time around, then they are aware of how their global fanbase plays.
The Mega Man Battle Network and Star Force Series have done it though.
Mega Man Battle Network 3, in particular, had it to where you needed one battle chip from the other game in order to fight the completion boss.
Now the Virtual Console does alleviate that by allowing you to input a code, but its not like you can enjoy all the content by having one of the games.
I mean people are expecting info from Game Freak, they already basically confirmed that they gave us all the info they want to reveal. That being said this is really awesome hype commercials and the ending with Zacian and Zamazenta is amazing. Made them both look really cool without giving us much.
Plus it's only a couple of weeks and plus every Nintendo game is leaking I guess so we'll know about stuff soon.
I hope so. Its one of the type combinations I hoped for, and discussed for a long time.

I’m expecting the answer to this to be a resounding No, but it’s worth an ask anyways: what are the chances that the Tetris 99 event will have unrevealed Pokémon sprites in its data?
That music sounds like it belongs on Sonic, it’s nice

This isn't just about pokemon, or even just video games. Just like it's easier to underestimate just how much nonsense that fastfood worker who messed up your order has to put up with on a regular basis, it's also really easy to underestimate the tedium a programmer has to deal with. Assuming it's always because of a moral failure such as "laziness" is just kind of cynical and mean.

This is the general discussion thread, both the rumor thread and the leak thread are where to discuss the new leaks.
Saw a lot of the leaked stuff. Especially the possible Gigantamax forms. Sobs in a dark corner... they look... awesome. Ten times better-looking than Mega Evolutions.
Random Fan - Why are you crying if you think they look great?
If this really is real, they could've been cross-evolutions... why GameFreak... why would you tie them as GIGANTAMAX FORMS!?.
The Megas look more like new evolutions than regional variants, and that was the point of them in the first place.If they truly are having problems with to many Pokemon this gives them a way to use new designs while not have to worry about using them that often. Same thing with Mega Evolutions. Doing it this way means that neither Gigantamax forms or Mega Evolutions will have to be used again until each games remakes.
I do agree that the Gigantamax forms should have been used as regular evolutions. As for the Mega Evolutions most of them should have been Kalos forms.

Given you cannot trade away the Partner Pikachu/Eevee, it seems likely you cannot transfer the LGPE starters to Home once it launches.Anyone know if we'll be able to move up our LGPE starters? I know we can unlock Gigantimax Pikachu/Eevee if we have LGPE records, but it sounds eerily like a consolation prize for being unable to move your starter up.
