>>49766853Not to keep continually beating a dead horse but even the hype period prior to the gen 9 release was shit. Once the dexcut news hit what was supposed to be a party mood turned into something more akin to a funeral. Even the usual stuff that happens during the pre-release periods like fakemon shilling and lore speculation decreased sharply.
Hype periods are usually the only time it's worthwhile to be on /vp/ so hopefully we have a better one this time.
