the fennec fox pokemon will be fighting fire type and it's final form will pander to furries calling it now.

they're still just making red and blue over and over again, right down to the unnecessary two-game setup and the fire grass and water starters

it's been fifteen years

The starters are boring but I'm happy they involved a frog, maybe his evolutions will be cooler (I disliked piplup but he turns into a badass steel emperor penguin). The rope swinging and web bouncing segments actually had me intrigued though. I'd love for more stuff like that.

Like slurpee said, it's the same ol' dumb formula.

I am excited that they are at least pushing the visuals forward a bit more. But I'm so tired of them constantly adding new Pokemon. If this was just gen1/gen2 Pokemon only I'd be much happier.

God damn it its going to be like summoning in final fantasy all the time. Each battle will take five minutes.

adding pokemon is a good idea its just that they ran out of ideas 10 years ago and all the pokemon they keep adding suck

gen1/gen2 for life

There's some good ones in each gen after those but there's not as many. I like this guy a lot

I'd love to see them remake generation 1/2 without adding new pokemon, but just making the same game with this new visual style

Oh wow, I always thought pokemon would be a million times better if they used Pokemon Colosseum style graphics. I think i'll actually play this one.


I don't think the starter will be fire/fighting because there already were two starters with that type. Then again, that grass starter looks like grass/earth type so maybe they're just copying ruby/sapphire version


also, spoilers: an improved version of the game with extra features will come out like a year later called "Pokemon Z"

it looks cool this will be the first pokemon game I'll be getting since gen 3.

I'm getting pokemon Y I've decided. I'll prob choose the water starter because hes kawaii uguu~ or the grass one

the one with the antlers is obviously the better choice

I like the bird more

but i bet the antlers one can use fly for no apparent reason. How does the bird land on the ground without feet? also is the bird part lizard where is the bird's genetic integrity?

I also like Y but I do not own a 3DS so IDC.

Actually, the last three. R/S, D/P, and B/W had firefighters. Also, the Grass/Ground was in Diamond/Pearl. You're probably thinking of Swampert since he was Water/Ground?
Ruby/Sapphire was the last time I liked all three starters, crappy internet memes be damned. These guys though? I'm skeptical.

No really. I would have never imagined.

Why don't they die when they get hit by all those things?

I think Pokémon togheter with most of what Nintendo has made is quite overrated.
Mind you I dislike all rehashing of the old in the wake of neglecting innovation. I do enjoy when say they make Super Mario Galaxy as it has new features but I still don't get why the fuck you have to slap on "Mario" or "Pokémon" as if that made it somehow better. It's just an excuse to rehash an old concept and formula where the fans adore it instead of whine that it's a copy of "Game X".

EDIT: Not saying the first ones were not great games, I don't doubt that, I'm just doubting they are worth the zealous praise they get. Any game which does not hold a sway over our childhood memories does not get the same leniency when they do not deliver innovation to the same degree-

I was thinking of the badass Torterra, one of the best starter designs yet IMO.

You're right, I mixed them up. In my opinion, Diamond/Pearl has the best starters of the entire series. I liked them even better than gen 1. They all had brilliant concepts and a solid design. Black/white starts are way overdesigned and the R/S final forms look kind of I'm a edgy teen apart from Blaziken.

I'm hopeful for these new starters though. They look pretty legit. I'll probably go with the frog in the hopes that he grows an epic beard thing

but pokemon isn't made by nintendo. It's made by Game Freak, a private company.

Ack, well my mistake then.

Still the thesis remains. I always dislike when repetition goes in the way of innovation for the sake of pure milking of a concept/franchais. I hold the same standard to the CoD/BF/Moba/Etc. series and/or games.

But this is derailing so sorry for that :D

Pokemon is a very repetitive series indeed, especially with their habit of releasing games in 3 versions (two at first, then one improved later), which is obviously a scam. However, over the course of the series they have improved a bit and changed up the gameplay. Each generation added new things upon the next, like breeding in gen 2, double battles in gen 3, battle frontier in gen 4, etc. Actually, this latest update seems to be one of the biggest changes to date, with the conversion from 2D to full 3D graphics.


The thing is, with some games they just found a system that works perfectly so if they changed it too much it would be ruined. You can still have legitimately great games even if you don't do anything too crazy with it. This is a special style that the Pokemon, the Dragon Quest, Disgaea, and a few others have perfected. They keep the core gameplay that everybody loves and wants more of, and just spice it up with new locations, new content, bigger maps, and more to do.

It's not the same as Call of Duty, or the "new" Mario games that nintendo is shitting out these days. Those games never change anything or add to the amount of content in the game. It's just the exact same thing, but often WORSE than the original. And actually, if you play some of the new mario games to have added a lot of new features
