>>316588723
Pokemon fucking deserves it.
They had one of the largest franchises ever and in almost twenty fucking years, the new games are still almost identical in form.
HOW THE FUCK DO YOU DO THAT?
Even Madden and COD innovated a LITTLE in twenty years. Holy fuck are pokemon games slaves to their original incarnations.
I am so glad something is coming along that might kick it right the fuck off it's throne of mediocre shit.
>BUT YOU CAN WEAR HATS THO
>>316589172
I miss when Pokemon seemed fresh and new instead of rehashes of the same formula every year.
Black and White were the last game that tried to 'freshen' the formula, and you know what? THEY REHASHED THOSE GAMES WITH A DIRECT SEQUEL!
How does one company manage to lack such self-awareness?

Mario has innovated a LOT in the last twenty years, don't be a stupid dolt.
Mario in the 64 era is like night and day from Mario in the GC or Wii era. Why? Because Mario tried something new with the concept of running and jumping.
Pokemon meanwhile, still has six cities lined up on a grid on map, you still start on one square city perfectly placed so you have to visit them in order, you STILL have to fight NPCs who spend their entire lives staring at the side of a fence on a route, never moving even if you beat them.
What's funny is that it has LOST innovation. You can't call NPCs anymore, you can't use the more useful poketools anymore from previous generations, you can't dial into radio stations or try to see what is going on in the world anymore.
Nope! Half of the pokemon games now have completely worthless bottom screens all because no one ever considered what would happen if the player wasn't online. Can you imagine shipping a game whose crux feature can't be used if they, for instance, shut down the servers for the game?
And people STILL say it's okay. People still fucking defend Pokemon's regression and wallowing in mediocrity.
Going as far as to compare Pokemon's mediocrity every game as being important enough to the series and jumping in super mario.
Do you even listen to yourself?
Have you even asked yourself "Hey, I wonder how a pokemon game would be if it let me do (literally anything that isn't walking around linear routes to each sequential gym).

>Yo-kai watch is the new hotness
I actually just got finished playing the demo for that game. The game is kind of shitty and boring, honestly. There's no combat interaction whatsoever, and it feels incredibly grindy. Battles take way too long and you don't seem to get much for them.
>>316590963
Well you'll be happy to know that Yokai's Watch demo is shitty.
It was compiled by a trailer company that gives you a full party so all you have is doing shitty combat with none of the charm that makes the game fun.
So you can go play the actual game, which is actually extremely fun and challenging with no grind at all.
in fact, I would go as far as to say that the game is the anti-grind.
>>316589840
>POKEMON ISN'T SHITTY, IT'S SHITTINESS IS PART OF THE GAME!
This is why Yokai Watch is going to decimate Pokemon in the West like it already has in the East. No normal person waits for the next game thinking "I can't wait for the next shitty installment of that game I've already played!"
>>316588723
That thing literally just digivolved to it's ultimate form
Do pokemon main games have actual side quests yet?
>>316590963
As a hint from someone who fell in the same trap: Don't play the demo.
The demo is dogshit.
The demo is just "This is what the combat looks like! Here is what the game would look like if we took all the interesting and fun parts out and just had our combat system!"
It's like Hitman: Blood Money's demo, which made it seem like a linear corridor shooter.
>>316589840
>pokemon has changed a lot since the first games
That depends on what yo value
If you actually give a fuck about stats and nature shit so you can battle online there is a decent amount of change
If you care about everything else there are minor changes that they don't even keep between games half the time

Yo-kai Warch looks fucking boring to play.
I hope it still kicks off though just so Pokemon has some competition. Might motivate them to actually not be lazy.Also yo-kai watch has some bangin' loli and shota porn.
>>316591405
Ha, no.
You can't even go find your friends and go places with them. They're anchored in one point in the world until the next big event has to happen.
It probably never will, either.
Is there anything that drives adults to play those games besides nostalgia?
Every time I tried to play a Pokemon game I gave up one hour in, there's no depth of gameplay at all. It's baby's first JRPG. I don't understand why it's so popular with young adults.
There are so many better JRPG to play out there, I don't understand why Pokemon is so popular. Jade Cocoon, a PSX game, had a more interesting environment and characters as well as a much deeper combat and monster breeding system. It was released in 1998, two years after Pokemon Red and Blue.
>>316588723

>>316590858
Mario changed from SNES to N64 but it's been literally the same thing since then.
>>316591645
The issue is that most Pokemon-likes are grindy or have shitty combat systems. Jade Cocoon is the only one I can think of that isn't one or the other.
>>316591645
You're not wrong. Pokemon games are garbage now because they haven't changed the formula in twenty years. Twenty years and it's still the same story with the same character types with only mixups on the gyms, stats, and team names.
The problem isn't the formula. The problem is that you're playing the only thing the formula had to represent it. Go try Yokai watch, it's like someone took pokemon and said "I'm going to do it right this time!"
So apparently the date in the Battlefield 3 Paris mission is the same as the recent terror attacks.
Can anyone confirm?What did they mean by this?
>>316588723
It'll be competition for a few years and die out like all the other "new hotness" franchises. It's happened many times, itll happen again.
At the very least, now Pokemon has a competitor and will have to actually improve the quality of their games.

Pokemon marketing in the 90's was fucking stronk. The games were a crazy new thing, everyone tuned into kidsWB at 4 to watch a pokemon episode, you were competing to see who had the most pokemon cards, you wanted to watch the big screen movie releases, and the kid who had the gb cartridge adapter for n64 to play 3d pokemon was hot shit.

>>316592232
Not just that, in the 90's it was a new thing. No JRPG had something quite like it. It was a remarkable game.
They should have done something with it.
Gen1fags are fucking retarded. It's never about the games themselves, all they ever fucking care about is the Pokemon designs, which are the least of the series's problems. They're fine, except Megaevolutions.
If you want to bitch, bitch about how the games have become much easier, even for Pokemon. Bitch about the games trying really hard to capture an amazing RPG plotline while still being unable to top Gen 3's simple but effective story. Or the Elite 4 literally being sequestered to 4 Pokemon, with Gym Leaders only allowed to have 2 or at maximum 3, with only your rival and the champion being the only ones in-game to have a full team. Bitch about how they're not going to put customized trainers back in the game because it's too hard, or about the super shit graphics that Yokai Watch, ON THE SAME SYSTEM, puts to fucking shame. Or how bad the music's gotten.
God I hated Gen 6. Even Gen 4 and 5 were better, and they were seriously flawed. Fuck.

No no, I want you to reiterate this, get back here. Are you calling mega evos 'innovative gameplay'? Like this somehow changes everything or X and Y is an innovative pokemon game because of it?
Please tell me what is now different.
>>316592159
64, sunshine and galaxy are spinoffs
regardless who you are, you have to agree the main campaigns in pokemon suck ass now. hand holding out the ass and ultra linear.
also megas were too big of a change. theres NO going back now that megas are a thing.
>>316592413
Let's not forget how people you find in the wild still stand still forever and ever, or how routes are completely pointless once you beat them except for a select few, or how every 'innovative' feature like customization is rendered pointless in the same game!
But remember:
>>316589840
Shittiness is built into the game! Making a pokemon game that isn't shitty is like making a mario game where you can't jump!
>>316592307
>like with mega evos
cause they were a badly implemented change. Once you got once it is just do you want to make an easy battle easier?
That isn't a change to formula. That would be like changing the number of moves your pokemon can have, not having trainers just stand or walk up and down, getting rid of gyms for a new challenge or proper open world

>>316591645
>Is there anything that drives adults to play those games besides nostalgia?
It has a surprisingly big competitive scene. Pokemon is actually pretty complex but you'll never notice that if you only play the story.
During gen V it actually looked like GF would finally acknowledge that fanbase by giving the games a hard mode and releasing DW abilities which helped a few Pokemon a lot. Then they went ahead and through it all in the trash again with gen VI by making it baby tier easy.
Who here can't wait for the mainline Pokemon series to die so Nintendo can focus on the great shit like Mystery Dungeon or another console Pokemon game like Colosseum?
>>316592446
I never said anything abou innovation you moron. Let me spell it out for you since you clearly cant think.
They CANT change the formula because if simple addition of something new caused a shitstorm then actual big changes would put the games at a risk of not selling because people DONT want things changed.
Also, every sinle long running franchise, especially the ones that belong to nintendo have the same issue, they stay the same because changing things makes people angry and hinders sales

Literally no sane person cares about this. People who buy pokemon games don't do it so they can tediously train EVs to play battles online which are mostly rigged anyway.
They do it because they want a good single player game with fun multiplayer. Pokemon only has the later part, but lacks anything resembling fun single player anymore.

Here we go again. Something 'new'.
Last I checked making more evolutions for pokemon isn't 'new'. Even if those evolutions require effort to get.
>Also, every sinle long running franchise, especially the ones that belong to nintendo have the same issue, they stay the same because changing things makes people angry and hinders sales
Mario, Zelda, Metroid, even Starfox are trying new things all of the time. Why isn't Pokemon?
What's funny is that Nintendo could release Gen 4 rom-hacks and none of you apologists would know the difference.

/vp/ please go.
When will Gamefreak let the players walk with their fucking Pokemon again?
Why was this even removed in the later games? It still boggles my mind to this day.
>>316592671
The worst thing is that they give you too much free shit now. In XY they give you a kanto starter and a lucario and even more shit, it's ridiculous.
But my biggest gripe with the series is that each game adds a great new mechanic that isn't carried over to the next game. It's like each game is made by a different studio who has no communication with the others. HGSS had the toggle-to-run button and pokemon following you, both of which were great. But nope, no game after those will have those features.
At least TMs are reusable now. Hopefully HMs will be turned into TMs just so you don't have to go to the Move Deleter. If you can't sell TMs, they're basically the same as HMs anyway

Can you imagine how Metroid would be if it was the same thing as Metroid 1 forever and ever? That's what Pokemon is doing. Pokemon likely missed out on several Super Metroids just because Gamefreak is too paralyzed of trying ANYTHING new.
>>316593412

The only rehashed thing is the story. It's always the same formula about getting 8 badges and shit but they always added/changed new shit in each generation.
Gen 5 was the one that changed the less probably, yet it still added Rotation Battle, Triple Battle, Hidden Abilities and Animated sprites.
Gen 3 added Abilities, Natures and Double battles.
Gen 6 Added Mega Evolution, Fairy type, Horde battle, Trainer customization (X/Y only), Walking diagonally, Pokemon Amie and Super training which actually show your Pokemon'e EVs and Horde Battle which is extremely useful for EV training.
Gen 2 made the "Special" stat split and added genders, breeding, Shiny Pokemon, Dark and Steel type.
Gen 4 made it so every types can now have both Physical and Special attack. For example, Waterfall in previous games was a Special attack despite you charging on your opponent, because it was a Water type move and every water type moves were Special. Now, Waterfall is a Physical move thanks to Gen 4's Physical/Special split, meaning stuff like Gyarados actually has a STAB physical move. This change alone made it different from previous games mechanic-wise.
With all of these changes and additions, it's obvious that the game just keep changing and if you played several of the games it's quite obvious outside of the story.

But Super Metroid is an upgraded Metroid 2 which is an upgraded Metroid 1, then got upgraded once again for Fusion. They are the same game but made better and better each time.

>>316593761
>The only rehashed thing is the story. It's always the same formula about getting 8 badges and shit but they always added/changed new shit in each generation.
So anything that people would want to play hasn't changed, but that's okay because a bunch of meaningless online trash has innovated? Most of which is actually the same thing that's existed in previous games like Breeding which you treat as something NEW AND SPECIAL for some reason.
I fucking LOVE how you wrote "walking diagonally" like this is something new. This is like adding 'controlling your character' as a new and completely innovative concept that no one has thought of before.
It really only solidifies in my mind that people who still play Pokemon 'competitively' have some kind of mental illness. Like training EVs and having the 'perfect' team (except if they contain banned pokes, those aren't allowed) is the only way they can get joy from the games anymore.
Awful.

SF2 and SF3 had genuinely different gameplay styles. Pokemon added some extraneous shit that you don't even get to play online because all online and 'competitive' ever is is the same 1v1 battle with a banlist.
It's fucking awful that people are such apologists in this day and age.

literally the only reason to play the awful single player is to grind your pokemon to get the right stats and EVs.

Are we done here, or are you only admitting that you buy pokemon every year as a shitty JRPG simulator, and you don't even like the JRPG part.
>>316593847
I thought most people played the games for the singleplayer. What makes the multiplayer better? With such a simple battle system I can't imagine multiplayer not becoming super repetitive after a while. Or do you mean exchanging pokemons? And anyway I suppose you'll have to grind through the singleplayer in order to capture and train your monster for multiplayer.
For some reason that reminded me of the multiplayer mode of the first Golden Sun, I had a lot of fun with that with my friends in high school.
>>316594552
Yeah this game made a strong impression on me. I'll have to try and replay it at some point. I really liked the "Princess Mononoke" vibe of the forest.
>>316594707
The only change is the Odd Egg, fuckball. And i even forgot the Tyrogue.
>>316594728
>he seriously thinks the game gives you optimized pokemon.
If you want something that won't get destroyed online. You have to grind for it, because nothing has the right EVs right out the gate.
That's what we're fucking talking about.
>>316594782
>most people play
"most" of those people never even played pokemon, only the simulators anon
the one who actually play pokemon online tend to be varied, with more people going for 2v2
and no you're admitting that you rely a different statistic for getting data
>>316594882
Yes and again, you imply getting max EVs is a chore in Gen VI
>>316593847
>multiplayer
>core of this single player franchise.
>most games disabled the multiplayer ages ago.
You are dumb.
>>316594938
>Mentions EV only
>Not IV
I know iv breeding is easy as fuck right now, but you need some time to get decent ones even with this.
>>316594839
Try Yokai Watch
Don't play the demo.
The demo is ass.
The big problem with pokemon is that, if you try ti innovate/overhaul the mechanics as they are now too much? You piss off the fanbase because suddenly legions of pokemon are no longer useable in future games, like the gap between gens 2 and 3. Years of catching, breeding, transferring, events, tournaments, hours spent in the battle tower, all gone because your pokes wouldn't be useable anymore.
And that's pretty much why pokemon is extremely limited in how it can grow.
>>316593412
They would have to redraw the sprites for every pokémon plus make new sprites for gen 5 pokémon.
And they knew that if they did that in Gen 5 they would have to animate every single pokémon of the more than 700 pokémon that exist for X and Y.
>>316595039
Noted anon. Thanks for the recommandation.
>>316594956
>pokemon

>>316595018
you only brought up EVs anon, and the only time you need to spend is starting up the wheel, once you get it going you won't have trouble
>>316595052
nigga they can't bring 12 to 3 because of different data structure, nothing to do with gameplay systems since they change them alot every gen
>>316593913
>>316593903
If you would have actually played the game you would easily notice a lot of these things I mentioned are noticed and used in the game even outside of online.
The only things that people don't give a shit about or don't use it outside of online are Rotation/Triple battles, maybe Super Training and EVs, Breeding, Horde battles and maybe Natures, it depend.
>>316594130
>Online trash
If you wouldn't be a dumbfuck and played the games you would easily notice most of those are noticeable and used even in-game. Where did I say that Breeding was news for newer games?
Special/Physical split, the new types, Animated sprites, Double Battles, Trainer Customization, Abilities, and more are obvious and very noticeable changes/addition that you use/see in-game. Without those, games like gen 5 wouldn't be the same. Horde Battle also make it very easy to EV train Pokemon in gen 6. You just don't know what you're talking about, pls go.
>>316591645
Fuck yes, Jade Cocoon was great.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HK4StMPRg3Y
Shame about the sequel.
>>316594938
I just went and turned on XY right now, and it was covered in a list of 1v1s with a few 3v3s.
I would do the same with Black, but Nintendo fucking disabled the multiplayer for it. So as far as you're concerned, it's just a fucking paperweight now with zero reason to play because they never bothered trying to make the JRPG part fun in their fucking JRPG video game.
Which goes back to my point: If you buy Pokemon specifically because you want the number and grinding simulator: you are not the 'average' person who plays it.
Pokemon is getting WRECKED in Japan by Yokai watch, wanna know why? It's because Gamefreak never once thought that having the same fucking game forever would ruin themselves.
Apparently there are still some people dense enough to cling to it.
>there are people right now who thinks Pokemon doesn't heavy carry a multiplayer aspect
I mean, there is baiting, but this is just another level
>>316595262

>>316589172
That isn't a genwun thing. Anyone who was around for gen 1 or gen 2 knows the designs went to shit starting in 3. Gen 5 they went full shit
>>316595262
Now I'm being trolled. 2v2 is one of the most popular matchups in the game right now.
You can literally filter match types. And 3v3 is definitely the least popular.

Oh right, I fucking can't do anything even remotely close to that because Gamefreak are a collection of old men stuck in the past unable to even comprehend that 'online' exists.

Not really actually, in fact even with Iwata magic they could barely put everything in gen 2.

Yes, Is. Pokemon is getting wrecked. This isn't up for debate, it's happening and trying to deny it is blinding yourself to the reality that less and less people want your by-the-numbers pokemon games anymore.
Yo-kai watch is a bad game that people are trying to justify because it's like Pokemon
>>316595772
>he thinks multiplayer works like that
Is Pokemon the only game you've played the last two decades?
No, I want to know. I want to think no one is so stupid that they don't think that Multiplayer can work that way, and it isn't provably fun.
Are you seriously telling me you never thought "Boy I wish this Pokemon game had co-op, or something to do in this world besides follow the same routes!"
Because if you haven't, that's your problem. The rest of the gaming world has moved on and Pokemon is still desperately reaching for scraps.
>>316593745
to be fair there are also like 6 times as many pokemon now it balances out the catch em all grind
>>316595581
GF is the source of all the issues.
They suck at coding and never improved(X/Y had frame rate issues just the same as B/W)
They are very nazi about the pokemon IP even to nintendo even though nintendo holds a large ownership in the mainline games.
They are oblivious to obvious cheating and instead focus to obscure cheating(They release a patch to fix trade cloning but it took nintendo getting on their ass to fix injection)

I would fucking buy a game where you could hop into another person's world in an instant. Are you really so fucking stupid that you've never heard of a game that let's you do that before?
Again, you're acting like a fucking chump. You're sucking down Pokemon's shit and your best defense is "I JUTS WANT TO BATTLE IN MY FUCKING SANDBOX NO DON'T DO ANYTHING INNOVATIVE LIKE LET ME PLAY WITH ANOTHER HUMAN IN MY GAME WORLD, I WANT TO LIVE IN THE 00's FOREVER".

This isn't fun anymore. Pokefags are getting BTFO around every corner and the best they can do is grasp as their "muh shitty multiplayer" straws and repair their bandaged assholes.
What if the old pokemon ate the new ones every region, and the only old ones still around were rare and actually difficult to capture (because they're strong and not because of some shitty roaming around gimmick)
>>316595791
The games are not selling more, it's the anime that's more popular (which right now is actually losing steam). Besides which that's only in Japan, it's irrelevant in the rest of the world.

>>316590327
pokemon could have evolved the way of pokemon snap, where in order to capture each creature by actually exploring, tracking them down in their natural habitat and then battling them, instead of constant massacre along your route.
I`d be all for having less NPC battles in general, Instead I`d rather have 2 or 3 of different trainers in each town who you can battle again and again. But every time you repeat the battle, the trainers team gets progressively harder and exploits different tactics and adds more pokemon to his team.
>>316596524
>ahahaha :^)

You heard it yourself, from the pokefaggot cult infesting this thread: The only fun is the multiplayer. There is nothing else fun in the game, and they don't want it to be fun, either.
Pokepark wii was the best departure from the formula ever, and showed the most promise with a real-time battle system. I wish it had been more popular so we couldn't had a real-time battling console game. I gave up on "pokemon mmo" when I was 12, real-time battles are the dream.

That's fucking depressing. Do you faggots listen to yourself?
You're buying a sixty dollar game to play the turn-based portion of, and only the turn-based portion of, on the internet with other people who did the same thing, all the while pretending the problems that exist in the base game aren't real.

>>316596552
Because you're saying that Yokai IS outselling Pokemon, but it actually WAS outselling Pokemon because this article is from fucking 10 months ago, and people are saying Yokai is actually losing steam as time pass, so much for the fucking "Pokemon Killer".

Anon, the whole point of pokemon is that you had a great world with a new take on the JRPG formula, battling and trading others was part of that formula. It wasn't a bubble that the rest didn't exist in.
Now that the rest is mediocre trash that you don't even want to talk about. Why the fuck are you playing it, then?
If you just want to trade and battle with others. There are countless games that let you do exactly that and do it better. The only thing Pokemon had over the other games was the adventure aspect of it. Do you want to play that fucking part again? I don't. It's shit.
>>316597503

>So games like Xenoblade has a "Fairy type", a "Special stat split", "Rotation battle"? What?
They have "Type 1" and "Special type 2" and you can swap out for members in your party, yeah.
All Pokemon has done is take the same RPG mechanics that other games have been doing for years and put them in Pokemon. Too bad you've never played another game before and are too stupid to realize that.
I'm laughing about how retarded you sound coming to the realization that there are other games besides pokemon that exist.

>You said yourself we can't count 2015 because it's not over yet.
You can't, because it hasn't ended yet.
>>316598282
Nah senpai. Most people wouldn't play pokemon if it wasn't the same. The biggest draw of it is getting to see new pokemon, attacks, and areas as you explore the world. How would you change it and not alienate the fanbase?

That's nice, but Youkai watch still outsold Pokemon in 2014.
YOU KNOW, THE YEAR THIS WAS POSTED IN?

What's funny is that you're so stupid that you don't realize that there are other sales besides YW2, Like maybe the cartoon, or the merchandising, or the everything that counts which Pokemon is secondary to.
Just because the rest of /v/ are being shitty retards that can't read the numbers and the stats, doesn't mean you have to be as well. Dumb cunt.
>>316596818
i just like capturing. honestly i'd prefer if it was a more open world instead of having everything gated by gym progress so i could run around and catch and breed while ignoring most of the battling.
>>316598917
YEAH, Because any normal person wouldn't want to buy what is essentially the same game over and over again. You're a normal person for wanting a little bit of change in the formula after twenty years.
Everyone who says "POKEMON DOESN'T NEED TO CHANGE AT ALL" is a hopeless nintendo fanboy. Literally the last person who should be forming arguments on the game.

you guys are fucking retards. Those were just holiday sales.
I guess "reading" is a hard thing for pokemon faggots.

>Yokai watch still outsold Pokemon in 2014
but family you just said that last year didn't matter
look
>>316598385
I know you're retarded but please just calm down
Yokai Watch is casualized trash and if Pokemon were try to compete with it, it'd just be a matter of fart jokes and making the game play itself.
>>316599182
You don't know how Greentext works, do you?
>T-THAT WAS LAST YEAR THO
That was making fun of you for being such a dumb queering piece of shit over "MUH 2014 SALES" even though Yokai Watch BTFO pokemon last year.
Have fun being destroyed.
>>316599181
Please show us the current(as of November 2015) sales of both games, then.
As some other anons have already said, Pokemon really hasn't changed over the years. Same shit, different game. If you played one, you played them all. My friends dropped the game but I keep buying every new iteration because I'm an autist. I get so bored playing them I have fap to pass the time. Now the only thing I find genuinely exciting anymore is hatching perfect shinies.

nice facebook dog!

>Like maybe the cartoon, or the merchandising, or the everything that counts which Pokemon is secondary to.
Do you have numbers for that? Do you have numbers for pokemon merchandise? And if you want to count things other tan mainline games, how about the mystery dungeon that recently came out?
You just keep digging that hole deeper, its not even baiting at this point, you just keep making a moron out of yourself
