also its currently like this

  • Fake Out cannot be selected after it’s used once
  • Many widely-used items (Choice Specs/Bands, Life Orb, AV) are just missing
  • Less than 200 Pokémon currently
  • NS2 version is still low-res/30 FPS
  • Stalwart Mega Skarmory

Also Mega Hawlucha can give its allies No Guard for 100% accurate 1-hit KO moves lmao

When was the last time Pokemon was even good?

The first 5 minutes of Red?

[-] PKMKII@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago

Pokopia’s been pretty well received, but Koei Tecmo made it so that’s why it doesn’t have the usual half-baked cash-grab Gamefreak stink on it.

It's also a copy and paste of dragon quest builders 2

[-] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

Thank you! I knew I wasn't crazy! It looked so much like it to me, but I'm only like one of 3 people who actually played that game so no one knew what I was talking about.

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

To be fair there's a lot of changes, but like, so much of it has the same skeleton, it's uncanny.

[-] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

The most absurd part to me, is how pokemon battles actually have a lot of depth, that we literally never see explored in any of the games, every game can be beaten if you have a decent mon with a super effective move, no strategy needed. I know they're children's games, but they don't even try to show off a ton of the stuff you can do.

[-] PKMKII@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

More like DQB 3 but with Pokémon instead of DQ characters. But yeah, we are talking about the company that’s slapped a ton of variants/IPs on the musou template.

Idk, I enjoyed Z-A. The dlc is kinda ok, the base game is fun. I might not dare to say it's good, but it's fun. Tbf I used alternative means to play if you know what I mean, so my opinion may be a little skewed, since I didn't pay for the game

You can't just call everything slop.

I swear to god there better not be bald Ganon again. People keep sending me this image of bald ganon to psyche me out and it's working.

The Legend of Slop

[-] Aquilae@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

Gen 5 was peak Pokemon; in the art, story, music, all of it

[-] BironyPoisoned@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

Too bad it was still the same old Pokemon gameplay that was stale even for the NES.

[-] Goblinmancer@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Pokemon showdown randoms only.

But yeah the emulators smoothes out the game by allowing the game to go faster so you dont get the glacial speed of battles.

[-] BironyPoisoned@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

Pokemon showdown

My goblin is so desperate to defend Pokemon they had to go to a game that wasn't even made by Pokemon Team.

[-] SmithrunHills@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

Mystery Dungeon was pretty good. Never played any of the games past the DS titles though

[-] swelter_spark@reddthat.com 2 points 1 month ago

I loved it. Great plot and gameplay.

[-] BironyPoisoned@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

Mystery Dungeon

Dungeon Crawler from the creators of the problematic Danganronpa Series. If it wasn't branded with popular Pokemon it would be boring. No one would care if fucking Dweeble over here got lost inside a cave.

[-] TheBroodian@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

I think gen 5 was the last good generation.

[-] BironyPoisoned@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

The only good generation in Pokemon will be the generation of gamers who rise up and burn every last game, manga, and piece of merchandise that contains the Pokemon brand.
