>Water-type moves used by Gigantamax Drednaw will change to G-Max Stonesurge. G-Max Stonesurge doesn’t just deal damage to an opponent—it will scatter sharp rocks around the opponent and cause Pokémon entering the battlefield to take damage!
>Flying-type moves used by Gigantamax Corviknight will change to G-Max Wind Rage. G-Max Wind Rage deals damage to an opponent, but that’s not all—it will also remove any effects of moves like Reflect, Light Screen, Spikes, and Electric Terrain that the opponents may have!

THIS IS APPARENTLY BALANCED

Why do you even care? what are ya 12?

>remove Z-moves and Megas
>replace them with G-moves and Gigas
wow great game

Your first mistake is caring about balance in a Pokemon game, when that hasn't mattered since at least Gen 5 or 6. Maybe even 4.

Since Gen 1, to be honest. Amnesia Mewtwo and the existence of Tauros

Not when Masuda himself stated it was for balance for the reason for culling the dex

I imagine everyone's gonna be running Lead G-Max Drednaw when the game launches.

Sure, he can say that, but even if the team culls out most of the useless Pokemon, or the ones that haven't been viable in ages, we're still going to assume that of the approximately 200-400 Pokemon that make it, they're going to be balanced?

Unless they go the post-release fighting game rebalancing route, a very clear meta of broken Pokemon are going to show up, or they're going to keep the trend from the last several games going where there are far and away busted Pokemon and who cares if they're so strong they're either straight up banned or thrown into their own class (Mega Rayquaza, whatever the fuck Ultra Sun/Moon did with the Necrozma)

I'm all for them not working their staff to death, but Pokemon's never been balanced.

>higher fidelity
They're the same models from the 3ds games
>higher quality animations
They're the same animations from the 3ds games
>balance
lol
Hopefully this time their laziness will finally bite them in the ass

No it would likely be even more unbalanced.
Take a look at LGPE. That has 151 mons (not including Meltan and Melmetal) yet the meta is roughly 90% usage rate on melmetal and 87% on Mew. Which is a drastically high number compared to Lando-Ts 47%ish usage rate.
Fact is having more mons means there are likely more checks and counters that keep things much more stable and not nearly as centralizing.

Masuda also said the removal of the dex was because they would have too many animations and models to work on if they did.
When GF doesn't make animations and models. Creature does.

In other words Masuda lies about alot of shit.

Right, and when Masuda starts using these clearly untrue facts for reasons for removal of basic content and features, thats when most would take a closer look and see just how much of a walking PR disaster he really is.

God, this made me remember Melmetal and his pre-evolution were a thing.

>3 turns
i don't see the problem here

3 turns is more than enough to get off at least one of those overpowered G-Max attacks.
In particular these 3 are really bad since NOTHING is immune to these types. It's like fucking Genesis supernova, and Clangorous Soulblaze but far worse, since they can be used more than once, and again nothing is immune to them.

correcting myself since there are abilities that are immune to water, but how frequent is that going to be???

>he plays pokemon after gen 4

Thing is. People do realize it's complete bullshit.
But someone made a false rape allegation towards Masada just in time so people can use that guys dumb ass actions to lump all people who don't like Sw/Sh together with him and completely denounce all the facts and continue to blindly love and buy Pokemon games.

This or use the paper thin excuse of "It's a children's game" like Kids don't deserve quality games.

That never really took off since most just saw it as a stupid fanfic. it did give us
>BUGS IN ANUS

Oh, i wasnt paying attention, when did they announce the Gigantamax versions? I know about the leak, but didnt know about the official annoucnement

Today
youtube.com/watch?v=xhIc6UwnHj8

You think that. But Twitter don't give a fuck about peoples problems with the games and just denounce them immediately because of this bullshit.

Twitter has not been coasting off the fanfic at all really recently.
Kind of shocking actually since that is metoo land, but most of them just shrugged or it got forgotten after a few days.

won't stop this fag from using that shit as a weird boogieman

Maybe he meant balance as in distributing them across the region and complet-
>battle system
oh never mind

>Those "animations" in the first part of the video
Literally MS Paint tier.
Why do the trainers look like having better animation than the pokes?

oh no no no no it just keeps getting worse

Because we already had this fucking gimmick. It was called mega evolution. but they removed it so they could do the same fucking thing but instead the pokemon is bigger.

>It's a kids game
I fucking hate seeing this excuse, it's literally accepting that the game is fucking garbage but it's fine because kids and their smol brains can't into knowing if what they're holding is shit or gold.

Have you considered playing games that aren't designed for children?

Too bad the definition of a "kids game" changes depending on the taste of people here. Especially dumb when it's "every game on a Nintendo system", where games like Doom are suddenly just kids games to win an argument.
