>“There are two different production teams here, simply named Production Team 1 and Production Team 2. Team 1 is fully dedicated to Gear Project, while Team 2 is for the Pokémon operation. What that means is that Game Freak as a company is prioritising Gear Project, which is production team number one, more than Pokémon in general.”

>Pokémon is B-Team

OHNONONONO

Pokemon was the B Team even when they had one team.

>we wanna make shit different from Pokemon
>probably just gonna make some top down, open world andventure game where you collect creatures to fight people in turn based combat with a tumblr art style

This can only be a good thing. I'd rather they move on from Pokémon and give it to another dev team to handle it than themselves, they clearly lost their spirits when the normies lambasted their masterpieces in Gen 5. Even when their original IPs bomb they are more interesting to look at than watered down Masuda rehash #17.

>Gen 5
>masterpiece
...

>”There is a lot of back-and-forth between Team 1 and Team 2. One of the interesting things is that Team 2, which is dedicated to Pokémon, only knows about specific platforms.”

Game Freak is leaving Nintendo behind it seems, their main project is a multiplat by the looks of it.

All Japan ever wants are jrpg's and gachas anyways.

Yep, B2W2 were undoubtedly the best games

B/W and B/W2 was the peak of the franchise. Step down genwunner.

That's not new though. They made multiple multiplat games already. They're shit but they're there

kek no.

They were never Team 1 though, they had much smaller teams and budgets.

>Pokémon is B-Team
Yeah but the A-Team is still incompetent as the B one.
Town looks like an upscaled 3DS game

Is tembo good? I played harmoknight and it was ok, never played drill dozer but I know people love it

That doesnt change the fact that as whole GF is woefully incompetent.

I agree

HarmoKnight is probably the only GameFreak non-Pokemon game I have really enjoyed.
Yet they'll never go on to expand it as a series in any way.

Town is not Team 1

It’s a 6/10, unremarkable

The release disasters of Tembo were pretty funny though.

Because it's shit. And it probably sold like shit as well.

Sequel when?

No not really.

DS era in general was peak of the franchise
>Platinum being great
>BW and BW2 doing a semi reboot and leaving japan regions for not-america
>Best remakes with HGSS
>All those cool as fuck spinoffs

Thing is that Pokemon was never good.

Oh please do tell me which generation you think is the best so I can shit on it mercilessly, otherwise you're just going to be going back and forth with ad hominems.

>The release disasters of Tembo were pretty funny though.
How was that a disaster? Not the quality of the game itself necessarily, but the release of it.

Doesn't change the fact that Gen V is peak pokemon.

I wouldn't say peak but it was definitely the last time they made a real effort and just because they prioritised showing off new Pokemon people call it the worst games

HarmoKnight was Game Freak and while it left some to be desired in that it was rather short and not too difficult, they did a good job on it and I think they could be successful branching out. I would love an upgraded version of HarmoKnight.

I dont play shit games though. I would rather play any SMT game over baby's first RPG.

>priced at $40 on PS4 at release instead of $15
>the version they put on Steam version was the demo instead of the full game

I pirated Giga Wrecker because it looked interesting at least. Never bothered to play it though.

Wait your turn

>Gamefreak treated Pokemon like it was B material even when it was their only material
>Will now be lower priority
This is not a good sign.

kek yes

More like B team 1 and B team 2

>This pokemon generation isn't as good as other ones
>Lmao I don't even play pokemon
you contributed less than nothing to this thread.

why does nintendo put up with gamefreaks shit

this game also looks like shit

like those many many forgetable 3DS RPGS

Because Nintendo only owns so much of Pokemon. Meanwhile, GF owns the rest of it. They could just as easily buy Pokemon from them, but that's not happening.

Which secondary Pokemon studio would you make the A Team if GF decided to hand over the reins?
>Creatures - Stadium/Ranger/Detective Pikachu series
>Genius Sonority - Colosseum/XD/Shuffle
>Ambrella - Rumble series

Genius fell off after the Colosseum era. Shuffle is borderline retarded. You should have put Monolith Soft in here.

Gamefreak owns a majority of Pokémon
You’d think they’d get together with Creatures inc to take them down but they’re too busy rolling in Trading card money

Idea. Pokemon photography game by the Fatal Frame team.

You forgot battle revolution for Genius Sonority. I'd pick them though they got fucking SICK music.
youtube.com/watch?v=8qasnF5-Wus

None of them.
Keep the artists and musicians, let either Atlus or Level-5 handle the actual game making.

What about HAL?

I'm classing Creatures as HAL since that's where most of the team ended up.
Current HAL is just the Kirby studio.

Hal is just doing Kirby spinoffs now.

The B team made literally all the best Pokemon games. Good.

It's a short game you have to make yourself play and your brain will just chuck it out the second you finish it and this is coming from someone who liked Harmoknight.

Gamefreak doesn't want to be Pokemon anymore. Not just Pokemon only, but Pokemon in general. In five years, Nintendo will announce that Gamefreak is handing off development of the latest entry to Atlus, who will be excited to bring more social aspects to Pokemon raising. Trust will be central to the game and caring for your team properly will be the difference between Pokemon listening or not. This will be facilitated with the next consoles voice and facial recognition system. Your pokemon will know you by these as well as others. If you trade away your pokemon, then they likely won't behave for their new trainer if they were super attached to you, unless you speak to them and calm them down. Get ready for Atlus to drag the games into the ground with worse ideas then Gamefreak in half the time.

Haha eat shit /vp/

Gamefreak absorbed most of Genius Senority after PBR anyway.

Why would we? Pokemon has been going down the drain from GF's senior staff going senile. This is good news.

Creatures Inc. is a wholey owned subsidiary of Nintendo. Gamefreak doesn't own a majority. There's a reason the IP is handled by another company entirely at an international level. They must have some contract that means only mainline games can be made by them, or just a firm understanding from Nintendo to avoid potentially ruining the franchise over the years.

>Pokemon Battle Revolution
Oh god now there was a disappointment.

Drill Dozer or Pulseman sequel when?

They should just get some other devs to make a popular spinoff series like Persona so they can give the main games time to cook.

>with a tumblr art style
...what?

at least it had good music and manages to have more animations than lets go

GF can only do Ken Sugimori or James Turner art styles anyway.

Define Tumblr Artstyle.

>Pokémon is B-Team
It always was. Have you never played it before?

Am I the only one that felt sun and moon were the best pokemon games to date? I never played ultra sun/moon so that might be even better

It's alright for one playthrough, but trying to play it again or USUM is torture because you can't skip the cutscenes.

A sequel for Tembo with more stuff would make it much better. Tembo is pretty average at best.
