February 27, 20196 yr Sensing a recurring theme here Gen 5: Western Hemisphere Gen 6: Eastern Hemisphere Gen 7: Western Gen 8: Eastern so I’m thinking Gen 9 will be another Western Hemisphere region?
February 27, 20196 yr The starters are kinda cute but it's always the later stages that make the whole line look like a true mess. I mean, we can already tell that Scorbunny's final evolution is probably gonna be some ugly overgrown, buff hare. I'm leaning towards the monkey or maybe the water type. The game looks nice but for me the most important/vital points are: - the game shouldn't be too easy - the game shouldn't be too short and we won't know that until after release, so I can't really say anything yet about my level of excitement.
February 27, 20196 yr I'm already a Sobble stan just from that clip alone Scorbunny and JooE from Momoland give off similar energies
February 27, 20196 yr btw here's the video for us to overanalyze the shit out of fKiz265SMME I'm already seeing Stonehenge and Westminster Abbey references
February 27, 20196 yr Author I don't want to say I'm underwhelmed, but I kinda am :lol: I LOVE the idea of a UK based region, but the starters while cute look a bit... basic? Like idk how to explain it, they kind of have too much of the same style and whilst they're different animals they just seem a bit similar. I expected a bigger step up from Gen 7 graphically too, I guess it might be one of those that pops when you actually play it and they'll have added things etc. that show that. I'm still excited ofc! *.*
February 27, 20196 yr I like what I see, but am not that excited about it really. I'm hoping the game won't be too short/easy and that the evolutions for the starters will be decent!
February 28, 20196 yr Sensing a recurring theme here Gen 5: Western Hemisphere Gen 6: Eastern Hemisphere Gen 7: Western Gen 8: Eastern so I’m thinking Gen 9 will be another Western Hemisphere region? Isn't the UK also western?
February 28, 20196 yr oUwJnBdguPI There will indeed be another (presumably final) series of the Sun & Moon anime. Quite like the look of this, seems less slice of life than the previous S&M series.
February 28, 20196 yr Similar thoughts to the rest of you guys really. Map looks beautiful and I'm OK with the starter first stages but it's all about the gameplay at this point. A couple of generations ago I would have trusted the gameplay to be solid but I'm terrifed of a Sun/Moon rerun at this point.
March 1, 20196 yr From the trailer, it seems very "back to basics" with the gym emblems, random wild encounters and stuff, but what threw me off was the football stadium and the jerseys at the end before they highlighted the starters. Is that going to be relevant in the story? Does Pokemon have a World Cup theme? What I'm more interested is how everything is going to look come the 2020 tournament season.
May 27, 20196 yr Pokemon Direct presentation on June 5th at 2pm BST has just been announced and will include 15 mins of new information about Shield and Sword! I’ve just pre-ordered Shield this weekend :)
June 4, 20196 yr Prediction before tomorrow’s direct: Box art legendaries Early route bird/rodent/bug Pokemon Forms (if not, next trailer) Evil Team (same as forms) Starter 1st stage evolution Bit more of a view of Galar Release date Bundle
June 4, 20196 yr I just want some cross-gen evolutions. The likes of Dunsparce, Stantler and Girafarig deserve their time to shine after 20 years.
June 4, 20196 yr I know Gen 6 had Megas and Gen 7 had regional variants, I’d expect Gen 8 to come out with either something new or combining them both. I just wish we got another Mystery Dungeon game :(
