>>35768256That makes it a bad product, but not a scam. They barely released the teaser and they are being completely upfront with how shitty it is, disclosing only 150 pokemon, and no GTS, and no this and no that. As a consumer you are able to decide if it is worth your money or not.
I'm guessing this game's advertising is being handled a lot by niantic, because if gamefreak made the announcement trailer, it would be misleading as fuck "experience pokemon in a way that will revolutionize the franchise!" "use incredible new ways to explore the overworld with your pokemon!" "breathtaking battles!" "the world comes alive with pokemon lurking around every corner, you never know what surprises await!" "for the first time, go on a journey with a second player and work together to take on the challenges of kanto!"
ANd then they'd spoil everything
