Just a vocal minority. I've seem just as much praise for the games despite their shortcomings
Same here. I liked Shield for the most part, sure there are things that I wish were better, but I love the more open world feel and hope that they expand upon it.

Dexit aside, the games are decent. Not mind-blowing but decent. Pokémon's basic formula is still fun and engaging.

I haven’t had this much enjoyment from playing a new gen game since BW. XY post game got dull after awhile and SM were decent but the smaller areas to explore felt disappointing and USUM the wormholes were too random that you often ended up in the one that had Heliolisk for the umpteenth time in a row.

To be fair, it feels like this has been the trend since B&W. To hate on the new games until the next new game comes out.

Ah, a lot like the Sonic Cycle and the Zelda Cycle. As soon as the next one comes out, the previous one suddenly is liked a lot more.

(Remember how everybody was screaming about Wind Waker and its "cutesy" art style and colorful world at a time when "Real Is Brown" was the norm? By the time Twilight Princess came out, the Toon Link games were suddenly some of the greatest Zelda games ever.)

Just caught a Lurantis. Can't believe it doesn't have access to the Solar Blade from lvl 47 has only has access to Solar Beam as a compromise.
Only difference that Solar Beam requires recharge and is 120 BP power instead of 125 BP. It's like they crippled Lurantis.

Lurantis is a recent pokemon, what kind of backlash were GameFreak trying to avoid. Why did they think of removing a move that Totem Lurantis was known to spam during sunny day?

Did any other pokemon lose signature moves like this.

Lurantis didn't lose a signature move. Solar Blade wasn't removed, it just learns it at a later level.

It's not even that good of a move anyway.

Got the muskedeers and finally managed to capture Keldeo on a normal pokéball (weird goal, I know). Now to see if I can get Poipole then I can do the Star Tournament

Level 63. It's the very last move Lurantis learns by level-up.

I would remember because I use Lurantis online. While it's since been replaced by Leaf Blade, she used to have Solar Blade.

I can't wait for a Zarude distribution for my country, seeing as it's starting to roll out in parts of Europe, I'm guessing it won't be long before the UK gets news on a distribution as well?

I just hope it's not a GAME based event this time, since we people in the UK are in a lockdown, thus all GAME stores right now are closed. Ideally, if they really still want to go the code route, they should wait until no more lockdowns, otherwise anywhere where there's a lockdown, they should distribute it another way.

I mean, doing a code based event during a pandemic is a questionable decision regardless, but it's better than nothing? (I don't know...)

What scandal?

"Scandal" is an overstatement.

It's a mess and poorly handled but hardly a scandal. Just chill and wait; if it's that widespread a problem they may have to address it and resolve it.

But this thread isn't for begging for spare codes, so don't do that.
