Don't be intentionally daft. It's a Pokemon game, of course it's gonna sell well. Gamefreak could sell a blank screen as a Pokemon game and it'd still sell well.

>logo's the wrong color on the box
>box art isn't focused on a single central legendary with a plain background
>no Charizard
>Pikachu doesn't say "Pika Pika"
>starters only popular in Japan
>isekaishit that goes against the core spirit of Pokemon being a more natural "coming of age" story represented through monster cockfighting and isn't just an eyecandy intro like LGPE
>releasing in the middle of fucking January, literally one month before Pokemon Day, rather than the ideal "week before Black Friday" that maximizes profits
Yup, I'm thinkin' it's selling worse than USUM.

hold on, how is pokemon a "coming of age" story?

Isn't it just a kid's power fantasy? I would be a coming of age story if they had to like give up their pokemon forever at the end or something.

The protagonist is always commended for how "far they've come since they left home" at some point in the games, and others make it a lot more evident there's some theming, even if not the primary narrative. Hoenn and Alola especially come to mind.

Other way around bucko. If this game sells great, they're going to continue pushing mediocre shit because it continues to sell well.

On the contrary, if it doesn't sell well they will likely return to the based gen one formula of what made pokemon fun in the first place in an attempt to revive credibility.

okay but in all of pokemon isn't selling bad, it's fucking pokemon
the bowser's inside story remake sold bad, not something that sold 15 and a half million copies. also maybe in america but in japan normies love it.

Selling the worst of your franchise is a very big thing.

well loan me 15 and a half million dollars, evidently anyone can do that if that's considered selling bad. also it's not even true because in that image platinum and bw2 sold worse, though it's still a lot.

considering I expected bdsp to sell “meh” because it’s a direct 1-1 remake
and then it broke records
and I currently think that PLA’s departure from the series plus glorious nippon weeb baiting (an already popular aesthetic that’s currently further inflamed by demon slayer popularity PLUS isekai bonus) and botw rectonasal gooning is going to do gangbusters
I’m afraid it’s going to sell “meh” vastly underselling my expectations and we won’t get to see the tech demo really come to life in legends johto
