This leak season was fun. First ever for me. I hope to see you all in 2-4 ish years.
its currently missing two Pokemon (Suicune and Virizon) and whats weird is that Tinkaton line, Charcadet line and the new evolutions come after the legendaries and paradox Pokemon.

That and Pokemon aren't in order of of the regional dex, but instead grouped by their typings, making it look very odd.
I think you need to see the pokemon in game moving around, see their animations and personality etc. For example, Tatsugiri is a GREAT design, and looks adorable in game, all 3 colour forms really pop. Dragon typing makes perfect sense (it's imposter sushi) and we need more water/dragon mons.Really don't like most of the Pokemon, they doesn't look Pokemon-ish to me.
It feels like we have too many birds Pokemon, that even look similiar, and many bugs as well.
Dudunsparce - we've been waiting for a Dunsparce evolution for 20 years and this is what we get?
Spidops, Lokix - look too childish and not complete, maybe this is just the artwork that we have so far.
Tandemaus and Maushold - couldn't make a simplier Pokemon, so lame.
Tatsugiri - dragon type? Really?
Pawmi line - it's like all three looks the same.
Flamigo - looks too real and not Pokemon-like.
Nacli line - Nacli is okay, the others...
Bramblin line - what is this? Some kind of a Dhelmise?
Gholdengo - looks like a character of a 90's game.
Ting-Lu - those horns with this bowl are so useless.
Chi-Yu - Bahhh
Also, really don't like the names of all those four legendaries.
Future and Past Pokemon are a lame idea, even more those lame names.
It sure did seem like it. Thing is they didn't give us enough information pre-release.Ya'll remember how people were actually believing that Cyclizar, an apparently common pokemon, was the Legend's pre-evo?
Lol yeah no it ain't
I like that the design of the e4 members don’t imply their specialised type .it’s refreshing compared to what we had in smIn general the teams of Gym Leaders, E4 and especially Geeta seem rather disappointing. Always though that Geeta would have Ceruledge in her team.
Weird to single out SM when that holds true for multiple characters in every game including this one. Even the specific example of blue = water specialist is true for SV.I like that the design of the e4 members don’t imply their specialised type .it’s refreshing compared to what we had in sm
A blue girl = water specialist, for example
I think she was referring specifically to the Elite 4, which is true. Many of them have designs that gave them away in the past like in X/Y where if the 'Fiery' personality and her talk of 'hot rage' didn't give away her type, then the literal Flaming chamber would. It was the worst in Sun/Moon because 3 out of the 4 of them you had already fought throughout the game (that was THE laziest decision; lore-backed reason or not) and in case you had forgotten their type specialty, their arena would give away the design before you fought them.Weird to single out SM when that holds true for multiple characters in every game including this one.

Nah the SM Elite 4 being made up of characters you had met already was my favorite execution of the elite 4 concept, I always hated how there'd be these super powerful trainers who don't show up in the game until then and do jack all to help against world ending threatsIt was the worst in Sun/Moon because 3 out of the 4 of them you had already fought throughout the game (that was THE laziest decision; lore-backed reason or not) and in case you had forgotten their type specialty, their arena would give away the design before you fought them.

Larry has a cloud pattern on his tie, it's hard to see in game thoughI think she was referring specifically to the Elite 4, which is true.

At least here, I had NO idea who I was up against each time. Even against Larry, my expectation was subverted when he decided on another type from what he used previously. I hadn't a clue clothing, design, or personality-wise for any of them on what type they specialized in.
The specific example was Lana who is not an e4 member and again even specifically talking e4, SM designs were no more revealing of their type than other games. The point you make about SM isn't really about character design but I personally loved how SM handled the creation of the league, it was a refreshing take on a concept that was growing stale. That said, Galar got rid of the e4 altogether for gym leader rematches so by that definition it should be worse.I think she was referring specifically to the Elite 4, which is true.

I believe that Larry was called in to fill a vacant spot in the Elite 4 as one of their members had left before the game started to become a Gym Leader to replace a Gym Leader whose Gym was destroyed. I think that he was nothing more than a placeholder to be filled in later.I think she was referring specifically to the Elite 4, which is true.
