Yeah, no, it's time to grow up and snap back to reality. This isn't feasible, it will never happen, ever (and rightly so). No other game on the planet has as many ''''enemies'''' as Pokemon. Your average JRPG by big name companies has under 100 enemies, a lot of them are just recolored harder versions too. To think that GameFreak would peddle your fantasies for you is nothing short of delusional.
i want a 2D pokemon game that has actual good and creative spritework
Anthony Ortiz
Pokemons one of the biggest franchises of all time.
There's no reason it shouldn't have money thrown at it for all those things.
Pokémon should look as good as Dragon Quest XI or even that Trials of Mana game at this point. It barely looks better than a GameCube game.
Mason Hernandez
Would you take a game with less Pokemon, but it will have all the other things you listed?
I mean they could just do a base game like that and gradually add more and more DLC
Jason Cruz
One step at a time. Gamefreak has been using mostly the same animations for 6 years now. They can't even animate humans walking correctly. You can't defend them reusing animations while cutting old mons for "balancing and animation reasons." The most pathetic thing is they make super over the top move animations for their dumb new gimmicks instead of focusing on the Pokémon. Dozens of Z-moves took the development time of Pokemon flapping their wings instead of awkwardly floating. Dozens of Dynamax special moves took the development time of who knows how many Pokemon that will be cut because of it. The last one about difficulty is so easy that people online do it.
Jordan Rogers
They could make an original 151 pokemon game like that maybe but not all pokemon
Carter Butler
you are absolutely retarded and have no idea what you are talking about, tech-illiterate.
they DID make a 151 game and still didn't put any fucking effort into it
Easton Carter
I guarantee you the majority of Pokeautists would choose a glorified 3DS game with all the Pokemon over an actually good game with half of them. Not that I'm saying SwSh is the latter, mind you, just what they'd choose if given the option.

>'I want gamefreak to make alternative difficulty modes, essentially meaning they have to go through the game twice and tweak every single Pokemon and Teams levels, items abilities, IV's, EV's, movepool while adding more onto it for each difficulty mode they add'
They did this, once, but never again and you had to do some stupid shit to even unlock Easy/Hard mode instead of it being accessible from the start
This. Pokemon is a multi-million dollar franchise but they act like they're some literally who indie company. They've been reusing the same models since x/y, but don't even want to put in a little bit more effort to actually animate the models outside of being hit and doing special or physical attacks
Hudson Morris
I don't want gamefreak to make another video game
Logan Clark
>only 400 pokemon >no following pokemons >barebones move """"animations"""" >no post game >shitty graphics + framerate >non gen 8 pokemon reuse the same animations and models as the 3DS games
why is this game so fucking lazy you'd expect that with all of that spare development time you'd see some actual effort in other areas
but no
they removed shit and added nothing
Brody Bell
>it's not feasible for this multi billion dollar company to put the same amount of effort in their games as companies with much smaller budgets
William Lee
Try multi-billion. It's the biggest entertainment franchise in the world.
Easton Taylor
Remember when digimon games were objectively worse than pokemon games? When did everything go so wrong
Leo Parker
I don't expect all of those things, but Pokemon is the highest grossing multimedia franchise period. There's no excuse for them not being able to put all the already existing models into the new game because they clearly aren't making new ones.
Jaxson Hill
>i want a 2D pokemon game that has actual good and creative spritework
sure but sw/sh has none of those things, plus won't even have all the Pokemon so they have no excuse not to make it good even in your awful logic >'I want gamefreak to make alternative difficulty modes, essentially meaning they have to go through the game twice and tweak every single Pokemon and Teams levels, items abilities, IV's, EV's, movepool while adding more onto it for each difficulty mode they add' Its literally a bunch of number and moveset tweaking lmao >tweaking every pokemon in the game literally noone asked for this. have the pokemon stats be the same but give trainers better AI and better moves/abilities/items that are actually obtainable with said Pokemon. Its not hard.
This honestly might be the first Pokemon game I skip. Even ORAS I bought eventually. This shit just looks disappointing. Dynamaxing just looks like more overpowered gimmicky cancer. Just like Z-moves and mega-evos. I don't know why instead of just making a good fucking Pokemon game they always add random stupid shit like this. Reminds me of how instead of just making a good Sonic game Sega used to just add that one thing that ruined the whole thing, like Werehog
Colton White
Dokin is all that matters. Dokin is life.
Lucas Garcia
Daily reminder that pokemon is 90 billion dollar multi media franchise your acting like its a indie start up
Brody Williams
I wish they added new battle types instead of just including gimmicks into the existing battle formats. Rotations and triple battles were interesting
Jonathan Peterson
you forgot about inverse battles which showed up on a grand total of 3 npcs
Camden Mitchell
And this ladies and gentlemen is what we call "damage control"
Gabriel James
Post Nami's feet You can't
Robert Reed
Yeah, no, it's not like Nintendo's Pokemon branch is the biggest cash machine in gaming history. How could they possibly have the staff for it
