>>41108445At first I was hopeful, then we started getting shit info, bit by bit.
Then I decided I'll wait on my original plans of buying a Switch, plus copies for my niece and nephew to get them into the franchise I've been in since Blue.
As the news got worse and worse, I couldn't resist the urge to shitpost a little, usually resorting to "you'll buy it anyway", just because it gets fucktons of (you)s regardless of how you frame the posts.
I thought maybe the leaks would help, but no, they cut half my favorites, and I outright hate half the new Pokemon, and the ones I like aren't enough to make up for it.
Fast forward, all of the official trailers and reveals were horrifyingly underwhelming and I hate every square inch of it.
Dynamax is shit, Gmax is a little better, but making it postgame-only, rare, AND selective to a handful of Pokemon
and only in certain parts of the game makes me gag.
This gen might literally have been the straw that broke the camel's back and brought back my old depression.
