>>49296016GOD I hope so.
>>49296018Yeah there were totems, true. The styles would be a big change to how turns work in pokemon, and it would shake up the foundation of competitive more than any other change I think.
>>49296034I can see this happening, but I don't think they're going to use the same team of people to develop these two franchises in that case.
Its fine either way, they're gonna do what they're gonna do. I just hope they make the next game look better than PLA. It really is like GC graphics.
>>49296036Showdown will stagnate and die without updated competitive battle systems on cartridge.
Not saying I disagree with you, but this dodges the question and is more of a statement of your opinion on what SHOULD happen.
>>49296040I would be totally fine with this personally. I didn't even finish SM or SwSh, it is so fucking old at this point. I am really excited for a new direction.
I can still go back and play the actual good tradition RPG pokemon experience, Crystal, any time I want.
>>49296053I hope it does, but you're right.
>>49296059Oh yeah ok
>>49296079I think you are using your imagination a bit too hard there. GF doesn't care what pig american think. Only think about what Japanese toddler's parents will buy for him to gobble up.
>>49296092Double battles might not even be in PLA or any future game.
