I love Koraidon but I don’t know how to feel about it having big wheel decorations on its body that can’t move, Miraidon is just a cool motorcycle

 

[Mr. Reloaded]

but the gimmick is fucking stupid, just reintroduce Z-Moves and call it a day already

Huge facts.

 

[AverageNamiEnjoyer]

So I can have 6 Pikachu with different forms in a team.
Cool

Huge facts.

Like, that’s obviously what they wanna do, this new mechanic is literally “Give a Crystal to your Pokémon and it will do something special” and they expect us not to notice it’s virtually the exact same shit they did two generations ago. Raid battles of all God damn things are gonna return, but Megas and real Z-Moves weren’t deemed important enough to retain past their introduction??

Agreed. Makes zero sense for megas to get abandoned when they were actually unique and have real effort put into them, but we're gonna rehash Z-Moves just cause.

This new gimmick is basically hidden power+Mega, but at the very least megas are dope, some Gigantamax looks lit, and some z move animation is cool, these forms are just slapping new texture and stupid big decorations on a mon, lazy as fuck

They’re running out of ideas lmao tbh I don’t think fans expect completely new gimmicks every gen, they really should hold on to a few of them
Especially Megas, fans LOVE them

Gen 6 is the only one I haven’t played, so Megas are fascinating to me and I was banking on them sticking around for a while…

They'd have to put in actual effort if they kept making more, can't have that

Nice to see the name Paldea i typed weeks ago was the actual region name in katakana

This “you can seek out a stronger gym” kind of implies there’s no auto level scaling like the leak said, that’s a bummer

"you can plot your very own path, like grind for the first 50 hours to beat the highest level gym first and then roll over the rest, or look at the internet for the >>>correct order<<< instead, since we didn't bother with a scaling feature".
That's really, really bad.
And lazy.
Kinda sad.

Thank you.

There's no point to this

Really makes you wonder what gamefreak‘s thought process on this was…

They weren't thinking.

Too bad. It could be a cool way to encourage people to try the different starters and pick different routes that favor their match types, or even go for some "hard mode" challenge picking an intentional harder typing route, etc.
we could have some great nuzlocke runs with all kinds of routes, but with the level ceiling, that will be virtually impossible, if the levels are still fixed, that is.

Btw, do we have voice acting in this game?
