So why are they still using this phrase?

I'm definitely not buying this shit

kill all wh*te "people"

No I wont, the last ones I bought were Diamond and Pearl, and last one I pirated was Y.

Hello, amerimutt

You’ve literally never been able to “catch em all” in any game. I don’t know what the fuck you manchildren are complaining about.

you could catch (almost) everything old and hard to get through ORAS, they still do wifi events for stuff like jirachi which i agree isn't as fun as hunting them down ingame

you are part of the problem but i don't really blame you

Not even gonna pirate it. It looks like hot garbage.

The best thing to happen in all of this is that the community turned on Serebii.
Even fucking Resetera called him out saying his livelihood depends on this game selling well

Yes you could, LGPE and Sword Shield are the only games in the series you cant.

Being this butt blasted. If you spent this much effort on real life you'd be rich

You're talking like Sword/Shield won't sell well. I remember Let's Go was the series killer and now it's Sword/Shield.

>OBEY, GOYIM

Well the good news is LGPE didn't sell in Japan, we just need to hope the US doesn't buy SS

>I remember Let's Go was the series killer
You're right, because it bombed in Japan. Meanwhile it exploded in the US, no idea why.

It's more accurate to say LGPE and SwSh are the only games in the series where you can't have every pokemon released.
Unfortunately, people like think it's about "catching em all".

Nah.
A lot of people say they won't and then they end up doing it anyway, but this shit looks like hot garbage and I doubt Pokemon Company is gonna change a damn thing, and even if they do, it's a sign they're trying to get away with stuff to see how much they can pull before the fans pull out. Never a good sign.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons looks better, and it's not even releasing this year.

>looks like the Galar region has such a unique climate that updrafts occur a meter or so off the ground huh? No wonder Masuda-san wants our Pokemon to stay Home and away from this strange region!

I won't
I know full well this kusoge will still sell millions, but I just hope that enough people are smart enough about their purchase to make it sell millions less than projected. And my $60 won't be going towards that.

because only the original 151 matters and they are not culling

PREASE UNDERSTANDU

U CAN CATCH ALL POKEMON

U JUST CANT HAVE IN SAME GAME

Joe has never had this much backlash in his life but neither has Gamefreak, its so bad that he had to cry to resetera mods to ban anyone calling him out and his wife told him to chill on twitter.

Because if you buy every Pokemon game, as all Pokemon fans do, you will catch them all.

Only chamander was confirmed

I wonder why.

That's literally how they were pushing it, they think having them in the app on your phone is on par with using them in the game.
Some Pokemon will never be usable in games again now.

>CONSUME
Fuck off shill, I've stopped playing Pokeshit since gen 5

I enjoy pokemon games but fell off the wagon after ruby and sapphire. If gen3 was on switch I'd just buy that. In any case I'm in a wait and see approach with this trainwreck

Actually, I didn't buy Ultrasun/Ultramoon nor LGPE. I'm not buying a switch for Sword/Shield unless somehow things change in the next couple months.

no,The switch is to expensive for what it is

This, it's always the same
>"Wow, Ultra Sun was released only a year later and it's the same shit! i'm not buying this." posts everywhere
>Still sells well
>"Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee is washed down and baby-tier easy. I'm not going to buy this! Even the Japanese community hates it!" posts everywhere
>Still sells well.
Face it, GameFreak could sell you faggots a literal pile of shit with the Pokemon logo and you'd complain but still buy it in the end.

Do people seriously think they're going to upend the entire mechanics of the series on its head and make it so wingull is actually a super special pokemon that glides 100 ft in the air and you need to shoot it down with X ability and every single Pokemon has some special interaction like that? The graphics faggotry is so dumb, not animating attacks in battles is lazy as fuck but getting mad over some field animation is straight autism.

What I want to know is, after deleting 400+ Pokemon, how about the other 500, are they all catchable within Galar, or will we have to use Pokemon Home to bring them in?
Because if we need to use Pokemon Home at all, then this Pokemon deletion bullshit had no reason to happen.

LGBT bombed in Japan, it's only retarded Amerifats that made it sell 10 million.

catch 'em all =/= use 'em all

You can still catch 'em all.

The animation is literally just Wingull floating in a tpose not animating at all.
He has frames of animation from ORAS where he is landed and takes off but if he's going to be this low to the ground make him flap or cut him.
Hell they might as well since no old pokemon got any new animations.

pfhfhs pokemon is just like hello kitty only produce merch, the games always were trash, you are mad because you are an adult now

I haven't bought a pokemon game since Emerald and that was used.

not bombed at all, already sold 2 millions, yw4 bombed

What happened to this series? Gen 1, 2, and 3 were legit pushing their platforms limits.

The Pokemon on the field is an abstraction, he's meant to be soaring in the air but the mechanics of the game are that he's on the ground like every other Pokemon so that you can interact with it in the same way because again they aren't doing 300+ special out of battle animations.

Jokes on you i haven't bought a pokemon game in years and i still don't plan to

Attached: 1561428155293.gif (500x370, 491K)

Then don't animate him as if he's soaring in the air, cut him from the game.

They got lazy. Simple as that.
Maybe some, but not all. The fuck makes you think I'd waste sixty dollars on this unfinished pile of shit? I haven't bought a Pokemon game since B2/W2.

>cut half of the Pokemon to improve graphics
>don't improve graphics
Huh.

>Pokemon will always sell

And minority will always be easily replaceable. We are trash, easy to be thrown off as soon we have something against it.

Youth alone will prove that they'd rather play Pokemon on their mobile rather than on the Switch, making the franchise's carcass spread out, as its intestines get cut in pieces and divided into single corners.

Goodness, technology sure is amazing.

>Your still going to buy it
>when the switch already has so much shit coming out after that direct
gonna pass on that opportunity fag

Bro take it easy it's just anime.

why do americans have an unrelenting boner for pokemon and smash?

It just pisses me off so much. A pokemon game on console with enough resources and dev time could be a damn masterpiece... and they're not going to do it. Ever. Even a well polished Pokemon stadium 3 would sell really well.

So I can keep them in the PC and in the pokedex in Sword and Shield? Yeah, did not think so.

A pretty beat down horse with children lingering around it while the elder cry but can't do anything about it because it's "cool and cute" and that's a good thing.

>What happened to this series? Gen 1, 2, and 3 were legit pushing their platforms limits.
They really fucking weren't.
Gen 1 is very basic even for a Gameboy game.
Gen 2's beta looked fucking terrible until Iwata stepped in so you have him to credit rather than GameFreak
Gen 3 was like Gen 1, the GBA was barely being pushed to its limits at all.

Gamefreak didn't even start right away because the head of their company was 100% sure the Switch would flop its first year

There was gonna be a cutoff point eventually. Either they were gonna stop adding 100+ new pokemon with every new game, or they were gonna drop the national dex.

Did you think that in twenty, thirty years they'd be making pokemon games with 3000+ fully rendered, fully animated pokemon models in the game?

Attached: 1546374566418.jpg (480x360, 16K)

IDK about gen 1 and 2 but 3 I have to doubt since that console's limits was mother 3 and gen 3 never went that far

>no idea why
tl;dr it starts with a K.

>we just need to hope the US doesn't buy SS
Welp, guess the series will live on.
Not that I don't agree with the critiques regarding cutting Pokemon.

>Either they were gonna stop adding 100+ new pokemon with every new game

They did that 6 years ago

this, tpc and GF hated the switch and because not more portable console, i think the rumored switch mini is because of this

What, you think their slogan was "gotta transfer them all"?

You can't catch ALL of them.

Sure, you may certainly try, but you'll never succeed

The marvelous thing I get is that they will never do that. This whole selective thing? Will happen from now on.

Games? Will always be churn out every 1-2 years.

Delays? Never gonna happen.

Dev team getting more experienced team crews and members rather than amateurs they need to teach through? Longer periods of time and more resources to work for the game well enough?

lol you know how much those plushies make? Churning anime seasons every single time to promote the series and the games? Wasting resources on mundane gimmicks that we'll eventually get tired of instead of actually improving the gameplay and everything else

a long audible laughter

>Starts with a K
Is it Kommunism?

Honestly I hope beyond hope there is a consumer revolt.

My dislike of Pokemon these days feels strange. XY was the last game I bought and was the first game I legitimately disliked from the series. I can't tell if the quality of the games were always shit or I just have nostalgia for the first 4 generations (5 didn't really resonate with me).
Feeling dislike towards a series I loved to death as a kid and a teenager just has me feeling odd.

Attached: Waluigi.png (360x460, 167K)

The only good thing is people will hurt every other part of GF just to bring them down even more, Giga Wrecker flopped hard and now Town is going to flop too.

Not unless it gets a complete makeover lol

I had that feeling with Diamond and Pearl in fucking high school
I still bought the games, but besides HG/SS I didn't care too much for them.
Didn't buy US/UM or LGP/E though, and i'm definitely not buying Sword or Shield because they found the LITERAL ONLY THING THAT COULD MAKE ME NOT BUY THEIR FUCKING GAME

It feels weird seeing so many people say they hated X/Y, it's one of my favorites. I loved trainer fashion, videos, poke powers, and the general aesthetic+music a lot.

At the time, I still appreciated XY for what it was. 5th gen? I liked a lot of things about it. 7th gen felt incredibly off. Like I just went into a tent and now suddenly feel like this entry's trying to be the "clown" of the series, that barely takes itself seriously despite some plot shit (unnecessarily childish presentation that started since XY, coupled with handholding and a character that the devs force you to care about, as if we're the protagonist of a movie where we'll inevitably meet that one woman character that needs a standing ovation for some reason for doing even the slightest of things).

I can understand the knowledge and logic of someone perhaps getting older and getting borish with it if they've been with the franchise since the very beginning. But even the original games weren't THIS childish. Over the course of the franchise, you're dealt with a number of characters that do handholding in the early beginning, not all the time. You're met with rivals that felt like rivals but along with time, have grown friendlier with time. You're not even sure if you can call them rivals.

It's odd, to say the least. The core remains the same, but the presentation seems flashier and friendlier for the sake of the much younger children, who, in the meantime, are busier with mobile cellphones.

I don't even own a Switch.

GOTCHA CATCH ONE FIFTH, GOTTA CATCH ONE FIIIIIIIIIIFTH! POKEMON

because the other games still exist

I skipped let’s go and I have no qualms about skipping this one if it still looks like shit. Maybe I’ll buy it used.

GO BACK TO /VP/

NO ONE FUCKING CARES ABOUT THIS BABY FRANCHISE

I'm literally not going to buy because I don't own a Switch and won't buy one just for this. A Switch is a crazy expensive entry point compared to a DS / 3DS.

I'd prefer that they work on the animations and making the world feel engaging. Some good post-game content for once would be nice too.

I hope they use this phrase on the box or advertising or something so they can get the fuck sued out of them.

That only applies to catching all the Pokémon dative to the featured region. Only autist losers care about catching literally them all.

First Post Best Post

Nope. This was supposed to be my reason for buying a Switch. Dumbfuck Masuda just saved me four hundred something dollars.

Holy shit, how can someone be this retarded?

Along with a disgruntled buyer, comes a million children. Along with a re-affirmed NO, comes "I'm not gonna buy it" people who wind up doing it any way.

It would take a miracle to pull of the extinction of the Pokemon brand at least into obscurity.

i wouldnt be surprised if it sells millions

no im not lmao????

because you can catch them in POKEMON GO

fuck it ill buy two copies

Didn't buy USUM, didn't buy LGPE. Won't buy this.

>well. I remember Let's Go was the series killer and now it's Sword/Shield.
LGPE bombed, though. It was the worst selling mainline title pair in franchise history, by a lot. And considering it’s a cash-in on a spin-off that made BILLIONS more than it itself managed to make, that’s even more embarrasing.

What the fuck does this argument even mean?

yes you are lmao????

manchildren "breed" like rabbits

Reminder that posts like this are Pokemon shills, no other game gets passive aggressive defense posts like this

Because they have good taste, unlike Euroturds that play virtual soccer and cutscene adventure 67

Why catch pokemon when you can catch cute trainers

>Pokemon """8""" generation with added spin-offs and sixth Smash with no end nearing, thrown along with the thousand Mario, Zelda and Kirby games

We're really not that different.

LMAO this, those poketards buy every kind of shits GF took

I've actually never bought one of these games lmao. Infact I think I might buy one of the newest Digimon games after a few of the threads I've seen here. Atlease their designs actually have a bit of creativity instead of just being a real world animal that has a funny color.

Instead of boycotting the game buy not buying it... you're going to buy it. Vote with your wallets, people.

Oh, and enjoy your shitty 3DS models by the way. "Whoa shit it's Natu/Xatu/Wingull! and they're just.... they're just floating in mid-air.... whoa..." Even fucking SALAMENCE is guilty of that shit too. GF really dropped the ball on this one. A shame, too. Their first main line Pokemon game on a console.

didn't buy legpiss. won't buy swsh. this franchise won't get one red cent from me anymore until i see effort befitting of a $90 billion business.

nope rofl

Sadly, it looks like I will not be purchasing the games when they release on the Switch. I could have honestly looked past the piss-poor legendary designs even though a wolf with a sword in it's mouth is just idiotic for a Pokemon, let alone a legendary. But not allowing my years of work of capturing and training so many Pokemon, all in regular Pokeballs, to be transferred over, that's just it. I spent so long going after every legendary so I could get them in regular Pokeballs, even all the Ultra Beasts. I was looking forward to putting them into Sword and Shield and having my team of legendaries. But with this news, I just saved myself money because I won't bother with the games. Such a simple choice and yet, it's the one thing that when taken away, makes me go, "No, I'll wait this one out." Stupid move on this part.

no they weren't. those platforms had way better looking games than pokemon.

I don't get whats the problem, no game had all the pokemons in it.

previous games cut out like, 2% of the pokedex, mostly legendaries for special events. This game cuts out more than 50% just because they want to be lazy

Because you catch em all in the current generation. Expecting all pokemon from all gens in one game is unrealistic. Unless the game doesn't upgrade its graphics and just reuses the stuff from the previous games.

I don't even have a switch. I'm here just to shitpost, lol

They cut out so many because they are going for fancy 3d graphics. The cost per pokemon is greater.

>Expecting all pokemon from all gens in one game is unrealistic

But you were able to do that for every single generation (minus 2 to 3 due to t e c h n o l o g y). It's still kind of a big F YOU to fans. From Gen 3 - 7, you KNEW that all of your Pokemon that you caught from as early as the GBA games, Gen 3, R/S/E, would be able to be transferred into the latest game generation. Now, I can't do that? Fuck that.

Attached: 1535252218747.jpg (951x960, 90K)

There hasn't been a game where you could CATCH all the Pokémon in it... ever.

You could catch em all in Red/Blue, but you had to use glitches to get Mew.

Nah, I was going to use a voucher for SMM2 and Pokemon, but now it'll be DQXI instead. Might buy it used, but Game Freak is not getting a single shekel from me.

I'm not going to buy a game for a console that I don't own.

Red/blue had version-specific mons. You technically can't catch them, even if you can trade for them.

I haven't bought a Pokemon game

If you had two gameboys and both games you could.

This is unironically true for me. I skipped USUM and LGPLGE but those weren't really new gens of Pokemon. And I never cared about being able to transfer your Pokemon. I'm gonna play it and have fun even though it's going to be severely flawed.

Yes, I'm gonna buy it just to spite nerds like OP

I did it with LGPE, I'm gonna do it with SwSh

Why do you even care to come into this thread?

The catchphrase is "Gotta Catch Em' All!" Not "Gotta Transfer Them All Over!" You already caught all the Pokemon, doesn't matter what platform they're relegated to

buy it second hand. DO NOT support Game Freak.

Last game I bought from them was X/Y and I learned my lesson.

if XY did something right, it was the PSS, Friend Safaris and VGC 2014
