>>41030484>Gen 8 initially announced to cater to long time fans>Long anticipated core Pokemon rpg on home console holding hopes and expectations throughout the years>XY was underdeveloped due to the "future-proofing" of 3D models to bring to future gens>USUM was a lackluster middle game>Let's Go was a casual fan or even a newborn's entry to the franchiseSurely this lack of focus from THESE games must mean Gen 8 will be something that's amazing, innovative, and thoroughly prepared, right?
>Graphics looking a little bad"guys don't worry, they'll polish it up by release"
>They're still nothing praiseworthy>Dexit announced"guys wait, they could just patch them back in over time!!!11"
>Masuda: no, but uhh pokemon home! Don't you guys have phones???>"The cutting of pokemon will allow us to fill this game with high quality animations"Cue wingull levitating, scorbunny double kick, yamper tail whip, and the same exact animations from gen 6-7
>Megas and Z-moves are gone, instead, we increase the size of the models and put 3 clouds over their head"This could mean just about every pokemon is viable!!!"
>Gigantamax introduced>Is your Stantler still viable?>Champion has a Charizard>Cue gen 1 pandering scare>Gmax Charizard, oh boy>Galarians forms could mean more regions get time to shine>Dex leak shows more gen 1 variants>Dex leak shows more gen 1 gmaxesTurns out "long time fans" strictly meant genwunners
But wait
There's more
>Venushit and Blasturd don't even get Gigantamaxes>Dex leak shows Chadizard is the only previous starter available>The dex is 400>Starter fan art mainly showing evolutions with swords and shields incorporated in design (which makes no sense at all), but don't worry, the real evos won't look shitty at all, right?>Real evos leak>Sobble squad ironically becomes more depressed>Eiscue, carcoal, fossils>Even more design controversyThank you James turner
Thank you Game Freak
