Are you going to look at the leaks when they come out?

I'm thinking about avoiding them this time around, see what it's like to be, (relatively), surprised by a pokemon game

I hope it isn't another Gen 8 situation where the starters all end up as furry bait garbage

Holy shit same. If gamefreak wants to have furbait mons then fine, by why the fuck does it have to be ones that we're given at the start, just makes me want to box them

At least these new ones look promising. This is the first time since Gen 4 I've liked every starter. Crossing my fingers that Quaxly doesn't get abs and Sprigatito doesn't get tits at some point

I always look at pokemon leaks but try to avoid story spoilers.

Yeah probably. I don't get spoiled by spoilers, never have. There's too much shit that fills the negative space for it to be ruined for me. You know what I mean? Like yeah, I'll know what a pokemon looks like. But getting to its region, seeing its region, having a fight with it, capturing it, using it. All this shit, can't really be spoiled because it's subjective. I could see the region it's in, but nobody's gonna play quite the way I do. Nobody's gonna check behind "that rock" and then go up "that slope" and then turn around, look up, look down, etc, etc... I play for the experience, not the surprise, and experience has to be felt first-hand to have the same effect.

I know what you mean, everyone's experience is different. For me, at least this time around, I think it might be fun and a bit nostalgic to see a pokemon for the first time in game rather than a still image ripped from files. I usually don't care much about spoilers, but maybe seeing a mysterious pokemon afyer stumbling on a new location, and chasing after it might rekindle my love for this series

Exact opposite for me, I always try,and fail, avoiding the new pokemon but don't care about story spoilers. I mean, it's pokemon, not Yakuza or something heavily story based

>>51779342
I don't hate it, it kind of reminds me of a Gen 5 pokemon. I think it only exists though so NPCs have a pokemon to ride on

I NEED the leaks in order to actually start formulating a team, literally the only 'mon I'm deadset on is Fuecoco and that's on account of him being the only reptilian of the group.

Why not play through and make your team as you go along? It's not like the main game is going to require any strategy?

I want to see the designs to know how low the bar is deeply going to be this time. It already peaked with the dialga/palkia forms. Even the reddit penguin or the kirby stonehedge are good by comparison to those abominations

My team's already decided before seeing them but if any end up being version exclusive I'll have to revise

It’s like an existing pokemon but more powerful and from the past or future.

Either they're pokemon from the past and future or they're someone's imagination about said concept come to life in some form. I don't fucking know anymore.
>>51779607
The last time I remember doing that was Gen 5. Besides, I'd like to get a good look at what I'm dealing with first before commiting.

I don’t think I can help it kek. I mean I already know of most of the things that’s leaked so far (like I think a lot of anons here too) so I don’t think seeing any of it will change much for me. I would absolutely love to go in “blind” but the way I go about my initial playthrough of a new gen is I like to use every new mon on my team for a bit, and I’d be afraid if I missed out on a mon that I haven’t seen if I don’t see the leaks when they happen. Of course I don’t wanna know how or where to find them, just need to know if it exists. I honestly wish we could go a Pokémon game without anything being leaked, no riddles, no text leak, nothing. I feel like it’d really add more to my enjoyment if it really feels like I’d be discovering everything for the first time, I
don’t think I’ve had a Pokémon game be 100% unknown to me (started with gen 4 but I know most mons from the anime already, I vividly recall gen 5’s dex being leaked, and every game that followed leaked as well)

This and version exclusives. Don't wanna pick a game and then realize halfway through a mon I want is locked to the other version outside of trade.

yeah
I was still debating over it as recently as last night, but frankly this is Pokémon

There isn’t any interesting narrative to be spoiled (even the more interesting ones in the series like SM/BW are shallow by every metric other than the rest of the franchise), a lot of the new designs will probably suck ass so I don’t want to waste exp on placeholders I’ll end up never replacing, and I hate choosing starters without knowing how they end up.

I’ll definitely look at them now lol. SV being open world gives me all the more reason to; with open worlds, there’s always something new unless someone leaks the entire map and you take hours out of your day to carefully trim the whole thing. So I don’t even need to worry about losing the wanderlust that’s fulfilled by not being spoiled since I’ll (hopefully) get enough of that from the gameplay lol

I went in as blind as I could for SwSh and didn't enjoy not knowing what was coming, so probably not.

Of course I'm going to look at the leaks. I'm not going to play the game, but the new mons, moves, abilities, and items are all useful to me in other ways. If the dex leaked today and had all relevant information on the pokemon I could start using them as early as tomorrow.

I mostly just want to see the dex. I like to plan out my team. Other than that I try and go in pretty blind.

not that anon but pre-sun/moon I wanted a water type on my team and Pyukumuku looked super cute, so I planned op using it. If not for leaks, I wouldn't have known it was a passive stallmon that would be incredibly unfun to use against several trainers
