>>46521936>This also means that a faster Pokemon can move twice or more before a slower Pokemon gets to move once.Let's posit that ATB is actually in the game despite zero indication from the reveal, you do realize that's not how it works unless implemented that fucking poorly?
FFIX had it in its purest form (None of that gay ass shit where you can take your time when it's your "turn", if you idled, enemies would keep acting and refilling their bars, unless you turned that shit off in the options menu) and there was never instances in normal battles where enemies acted multiple times before you unless you were fucking slow in selecting your actions and holding back the rest of the party.
On top of that, battles never started with the bar empty unless it was an ambush.
And even it your asspull conjecture were true, even an incompetent developer like Gamefreak would probably know to mitigate the slowness with an held item, or the fact that while enemies only have a berry sometimes, you can assist your slowass mon with items, maybe make trainer actions separate from Pokemon actions so you can use items and a move in the same "turn" seeing how the game's open world now and pokemon can apparently attack the trainer directly and there's a dodge roll move.
None of it changes the fact the game's gonna be shit regardless, since it's Gamefreak and that screenshot literally looks like the put together fake screenshots you'd see of "3D open world Pokemon game" years back.
