>>41878174Gens 1 through 4 had less than 500 pokemon and this board basically worships gen 4. Do you know how time consuming it is for gamefreak to animate nearly 1000 pokemon? It's not fucking possible. Stop asking for unrealistic expectations from gamefreak. As long as the games are still fun, thats all that matters. And the last time I had as much fun with a video game as I did with sword and shield was with sun and moon.
>>41878220Thank you for respectably disagreeing anon. I hope gamefreak releases a game that you personally like again.
>>41878247>muh charizard!!!Obviously the iconic gen 1 pokemon are all going to be in. And the charmander line is easily the most famous starter line. Stop acting stupid.
>>41878249Sword and shield are not low quality games. Sure there are some shortcuts that gamefreak took that I've noticed, but it's clear that a lot of work went into it as well despite its flaws (graphics and story mostly), and they're still very fun games. The same can't be said for most games nowadays.
