I hope you enjoyed battling in SV because you will never play a new mainline game with turns ever again.

I don't think that they're gone forever but we'll probably never see a game in a brand new region with turnbased battles again.

There was nothing wrong with it other than Shitfreak making singles the default since they think kids are retarded. Doubles or Triples was more enjoyable than Singles.

>actually thinking they're going to drop the classic battle system that's been a staple for 30 years
Both the Legends series and Champions have their own purpose, it's ridiculous to jump to the conclusion that they indicate a major change for the whole series.

Yeah Legends' purpose is to prepare fans for experimental stuff they want for the main series as confirmed by the teraleak, and Champions' is to keep VGC alive.
Stop being in denial.

Champions exists because Gen 10 has a longer development time, meaning they have nothing for the next VGC season, and they recognize people are interested in games that not only have multiple generational gimmicks, but also doing battles and only battles on mobile thanks to Showdown.

Any takes that they'll ditch turn-based in the next gen are delusional.

Nothing there says Legends gameplay mechanics are intended to transfer to the main games, "technical foundation" simply means the technical side of the games, which back then referred to PLA/SV moving the series into open world.

Which has nothing to do gen 10 development time, or the way they are removing turns in next month's game, or how pokemon can no longer go back to old games after being in the new system

The combat style is a creative decision, not something referred to when talking about the technical side of development.

They go to every franchise , they infect then, then yell they will remove turn based and shit and finally leave.
Falcom fandom got so bad after they discover trails with cold steel , same with Persona and other cases

Because SV has now gone through every ruleset iteration, is pretty thoroughly explored, and people are bored and moved on to other games.

That's not reddit spacing retard, and no there is nothing that says they will add anything from Legends in the first place. The point is the technical groundwork for open world games they talked about is proven to be in SV, yet there is still no evidence of any plans to transfer actual gameplay.

They are and having a game that's hard enough for these kids that they have to use their braincells is a good thing. It also teaches them that they don't just get everything by default.

I'd like to disagree but honestly, having seen some of the things PokeZoomers say on Twitter, Reddit and Youtube comment sections, I think that we don't give enough credit to just how retarded Pokemon fans generally are.
I think being on 4chan, surrounded by people of a similar level of 'tism to oneself causes anons to be blinded to just how bleak things have gotten externally.
Unless you're speaking with a showdownfag or something who gets to the top of vgc ladders, chances are that person is barely managing to finish these games at the best of times. There are people out there who unironically struggled with fucking XY.

And real-time battles are supposed to be easier for retarded kids to get a hang of? They're gonna be seething when they "swear they dodged that attack" every single time they get hit because they don't understand they're using sluggish fucks with giant hitboxes.

Retard ?

During the Pokemon Present on July 22, 2025, after discussing the cards, the Netflix series, Pokemon Friends, and other spin-offs, the presenter explicitly said:
>"Next, allow me to share some news about the Pokémon MAIN SERIES."
Puis s'enchaine informations suivantes :
-Teraraid in Scarlet and Violet
-Pokemon Champions
-Pokemon Legends Z-A
End of live.

And it makes sense that it's considered a main series, it's partly developed by Game Freak, knowing that it will serve as a support for the official competitive scene. Implying that the gameplay could be modified and varied for all future games, including gen 10.

They make singles the default because singles are the default. The only reason doubles are the standard in tournament is because they're faster. Singles would take nearly twice as much time since switching and momentum is much more important there rather than unga bunga fake out/intimidate/make it rain off rip.

No, they made Champions because they want to nickel and dime comptards even harder than they've already been doing. Now not only do you have to buy all these games chock full of DLC (which now extends to the Legends games) that cost a total of 100 USD each to have all the content of for a single version, you also have to buy the paid version of Champions, and still be subject to whatever microtransactions or premium packages they put in after the fact that could very well gatekeep content behind a paywall.

Correct. You can't pay for coins directly, but we DO also know there's a paid version for the Switch consoles, and that comes with the inherent implication that there will be more methods to squeeze extra profits.
