They literally never introduce any new concepts to their games I think the last new innovation in the pokemon game is supposed to allow you to have two vs two. That was about 10 years ago I think
I'm so so sorry to do this to you. Double battles were introduced with Ruby and Sapphire... 22 years ago...
Vicious rumor spreading will not be tolerated. The '90s were 15 years ago
Already 15? Wow time flies
I like to shit on Pokemon and Nintendo as much as the rest of them but this isn't really true. Legends: Arceus, while not a great pokemon game overall, introduced several new mechanics, some of which then made their way into Scarlet/Violet. The biggest and best of which, in my opinion, is the ability to catch wild pokemon without battling them.
You have always been able to throw a ball at an unharmed Pokémon to capture it. Just had a very low chance of success unless it was either very low level or it was a great ball or one of the other ones they introduced later. But even back in red and blue you could always try it and it might work.
but you still had to initiate a battle. Unless you're just playing stupid, you should go watch some Arceus gameplay to see what I mean.
I think there are triple battles now. Those might be 10 years old
