    It’s a lame ass tug of war battle, one of us takes out the others pkmn and turns into just that back and forth, imagine how’d it even works with doubles

    Yeah they nailed the style of battles, but the mechanics are definitely made for single player experiences. This new turn order system ain't it.

    I think a lot of people will agree with you. In my first impressions when I said I like how they handled battles I was strictly talking about the look and feel

    How we see our trainer and pokemon together. The way we toss the pokeball and they pop out. How the trainer makes movements when they make commands.

    I can do without the agile/strong gimmicks and turn order nonsense tho

    Yeah they nailed the style of the battles. The game play of battles is much desired. I felt what Bhris said. I lost Pokemon due to a alpha pokemon being able to attack me twice some time three times just because.

    Bruh what I think makes it worse is that they do it without even using an agile style move, I feel cheated when a Pokémon uses something like nasty plot or swords dance and attacks right after comp would be in shambles

    BRO this just happened to me. Alpha Machoke used bulk up and then hit me with double edge back to back. Smh in this game Double edge is literally a OHKO attack.

    feel like an old man stuck in the past seeing people say they like this battle system more, kinda think those who do never enjoyed battling in the first place

    The last and only time I gave enough of a s*** about battling to put all those hours into breeding/training was when I was like 10 and OG D/P came out so fair enough im definitely not down to invest that kinda time anymore so I’ll take a more casual system like this any day

    im hoping they keep this as a separate series so people who are more into the competitive scene can still keep doing what they do

    there needs to be a dlc that lets you run over niggas when you’re on the wyrdeer

    damn I tried to finesse the shiny ponyta they give you for a good nature but it looks like shinys/pokemon are nature locked once they spawn in the overworld

    Guys. Do I spend 20 bucks on Arceus? I have Brilliant Diamond and it honestly didn’t really hook me but I’m kind of leaning into the hype of this new one. I love Pokemon, I’m not a hardcore gamer, but I am looking for something moderately meaty to sink my teeth into.

    Is this game worth playing? I’ve seen the videos and criticisms, just curious if the game actually is fun to play. Just want to play on my TV while my girlfriend watches and reads her books and s***. Worth or skip?

    20 bucks? Where are you finding this deal? You should def check it out if you're into Pokémon. It's a breath of fresh air for the franchise.

    2nd biggest launch for switch game in japan besides animal crossing

    Beating bdsp and swsh

    I’d be selling BD for 40 and recouping it into this game

    there needs to be a dlc that lets you run over niggas when you’re on the wyrdeer

    That would actually be a dope mechanic. Just using tackle from wydeer in the overworld and hit a Pokémon and make them dizzy so you can hop off and capture them

    when we getting online battles

    Probably one of my favourite tracks in Pokémon in years
