What's your thoughts on Pokemon Go? Is it worth the hype?
>>322007778
Need more details first.
>>322007778
no game is ever worth the hype
What hype?
>>322007778
I know it's gonna happen but
>microtransactions
>>322008474
The hype that was alive and well... Until they gave it a 2016 release year with no specific date
>>322007778
There was hype?
I though people were just making fun of it because of how kids would die running around the world trying to find pokemon.
>>322008474
90s kids that haven't touched the series in years are massively excited for it
>>322008551
>>322008474
You must not have many normie friends.
>>322008551
Pokemon GO isn't being marketed at kids. It's being marketed at adults in their 20's-30's.
>>322008505
They've been outright confirmed since the initial reveal.
>>322008551
Yeah that's what happens when you spend all of your time on /v/.
Just hoping it won't be just genwun, I want my Volcarona bud.
>>322008691
So do we make jokes about autists stumbling around the world looking for pokemon, and getting arrested for asking kids to trade with them?
>>322007778
>What's your thoughts on Pokemon Go? Is it worth the hype?
I don't know, let me call one second the myself from the future.
Fuck man I just wanna battle people with real pokemon in real life.
I don't even want to be a gym leader, I just want to be a tough trainer
>>322009054
Well, how did it go?
>>322009076
I just want the free pokemon sex.
>>322009076
We all do anon, someday holographic pokemon will exist and we can have as close to real pokemon as we'll ever get
Will it have legitimate battles, or just some even-more-casualized approximation?
FULL EVEE TEAM H-HERE I GOU!!!
>>322009278
What's the most fuckable gen1 pokemon?
>>322009054
>yfw no one answers
>>322009427
They're implying pretty heavily that there's going to be proper Pokemon battles.
If they skimp out on that, the game will be shit, no questions asked.
If there's more than just the 150 original pokemon then I will be too lost to even bother desu. Fuck that shit.
>>322009427
rock paper scissors
>>322009631
Jynx if you're a nigger, Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon if you just want an onahole.
>>322008474
The reveal trailer has more than 20 million views. Higher than Fallout 4 reveal trailer.
>>322009631

>>322008686
>having normie friends
That's your problem
>>322008505
It's gonna be free to start, obviously.
>tfw never leave my house
Hopefully there will be a respawn point nearby.
>>322009856
Not like you're actually going out of your way for some stupid pokemon, right?
Just catch the pokemon you happen to meet while you go out.

It'll be good if
>The combat is at least as good as the handhelds
>You have a good choice of starters
>There are ingame levels and pokemon still evolve through battling and trading
>Pokemon are placed in the world logically, waters at the beach poisons in city centres etc
>You either pay once upfront or there are buyable extras like outfits for your avator or earlier access to items you can get for free
>There will be some kind of cross reward with the next handheld game... you can transfer a few poke you get or items or money at least
It'll be shit if
>Starter is randomized and you can't evolve them without ingame currency
>Pokemon now only evolve with items bought with ingame currency
>GPS map thing is event exclusive and shitmon are just generated around you and goes by distance from you for better things
>Battles are automated or offscreen shit you get notifications about
>SO much is timed and event driven that if they drop support when it's no longer profitable the game isn't playable anymore and therefore a waste of time
>You are only notified of nearby trainers if you've added each other to some nintendo friend list shit
>ingame ads everywhere, loads and searches for new ads each time you log in
>You pay for almost everything with ingame currency you buy with real cash, timers for almost everything including searching and battling, that can be temporary removed with cash
>>322010191
The first hits always free
>free to play
>but has in-app purchases
so it'll be shit
>>322008383
Dark souls was worth the hype,
I have faith that the game will be playable. I don't have faith that's it's gonna stick around for the year. But yeah, interesting to see how they'll do gyms which are confirmed
>>322009869
>Jolteon
I just hope the battles and pokemon catching are the same as they are in the real games. That's all it needs to be good.
I want to walk around, see a pokemon, have to battle and weaken it and then try to capture it.
I live in a rough neighborhood surrounded by mexicans.
What pokemon I'm I gonna find should I decide to walk outside?
>>322014132
Ludicolo
What's the first pokemon you wanna catch, assuming it's gen1 only?
I would go for a Gastly, those guys are incredibly versatile and would help a ton in the long run.

>>322009869
>jolteon and flareon
Enjoy the electrocution and no moves in bed.
>>322009631Mr. Mime
>>322007778
I'm cautiously optimistic since I don't think the microtransactions for Nintendo's other p2w Pokemon games have been that Jewish.
>>322014215
Ludicolo is awesome
Feels good living in a state full of Mexicans
Pokemon Shuffle's heart system sucks so much
I hope they're more generous with this
>>322007778
For once I'm praying that Nintendo is still super behind the times because if they are this could be the pokemon game I've dreamed about my whole life. If it's just a pnd clone I'll still probably at least install it but I won't be that happy about it.
im really excited to see this , i think this is a step in the right direction for simultions
>>322014660
Same probably. Ghost types are best bros.
>>322009631
>all these shitty replies
Eevee
The actually fuckable one

Kids are going to be bullied by other kids for their Pokemon IRL. There's gonna be a lot of stupid shit that happens because of the game.
>yfw thugs camp at a pokemon respawn location and rob whoever goes to catch it
This will be a disaster. I doubt the developers will keep an eye out on every respawn point across multiple continents, so a lot of them will be randomized and sometimes inaccessible.
Lol I bet the pokeballs will be the in game purchases.
>>322016448
>ripping up a nerds pokemon card becomes smashing his phone
>>322017101
>you get 1 pokeball daily
>you get 1 great ball if you log in 7 days in a row
>have to buy ultra ball bundles with real $
Game would be dead on arrival to me.
I wouldn't spend a dime on the IAP, but if I can at least catch a Zigzagoon with a good moveset in my neighborhood it could be fun.
Not that I'm expecting the battles to even be classic turn based chicken fights. They'll probably be some awful 'Tap the screen to RNG an auto win' kind of battles.
>>322014969
>*cringes violently*
>>322018238
To you. John Gamefreak will make a roddy fortune as long as the collecting and battling is done decently enough to drive IAP.
>>322019301
This is the sad truth. They will make millions off of retards and children.
>>322019694
Iwata's not around to stop the mobile craze. If your dad working at Nintendo is brazen enough, he'll expend actual resources behind their brand power and make potential BILLIONS off the typical King Corp. player base.
Only the "gen 1 is the only one that counts the rest is shit" normies thta havent touched pokemon since then are hyped about this
They also seem to have some foolish childlike idea that its going to be some next level great shit
>>322009720
underrated
>>322019056
>They'll probably be some awful 'Tap the screen to RNG an auto win' kind of battles
Which would be retarded. All they have to do is copy paste what the handheld games have been doing for almost 20 years
I'll be hyped when the 721 pokemons and shinies are confirmed, otherwise it's going to be shitty. If it's always geodude camping in front of my house, there's no reason to check it everyday if it can't be shiny.
>>322021242
>Shinies
Please senpai please my dick is so hard right now
>>322020710
To complex for the "phone gamer" audience
All the popular RPG's on phones have you drag over an enemy to attack, and click a big flashing icon for special moves.
>>322007778
post pokemon team based on your location
>new york
1.muk- evolved from grimier in Manhattan
2. pigeot- Evolved from pigey from central park
3.raticate- evolved from ratata found in bronx
4.dodrio- caught in north newyork
5.dratini- bought off a nig on ebay (p2w mofoka)
6.abra- lucky catch near my apartment
>>322022308
>nevada
1. Arbok- snakes errewhere
2. venomoth- Moths conquer the skies at night
3. Dugtrio- odiously
4. starmie- honestly just want one
5. sandslash- my boy, probably caught a sandshrew
6. nidorino- Im in a rugged area so its possible.
>>322022308
You do realize it's going to be more specialized than "New York only has X Y and Z" right?
They said they want to go beyond, like water Pokemon near the oceans, toxic Pokemon underground in the subways, etc.
>>322007778
It's gonna have micro transactions up the ass and we barely know the full details of the game.
>>322021491
> can take time out of your schedule to travel your neighborhood/city/state/country/continent/world just to catch a pokemon, which entails varying amounts of physical effort and money, along with a variety of miscellaneous skills
> can't learn to battle fucking Pokemon
>>322022739
Potions and Pokeballs would probably cost real money
>>322022674
my list is just assuming they only do the origional 150, but if its all 700+ it'll be a bit more in depth
(example: I go fishing in Atlantic ocean with pop's every year, his boat has wifi and we get reception = seaking or other more hardcore pokes)
>>322022308
1. Lopunny - caught in neighbors flower bed
2. Sawsbuck - caught fucking anywhere, there are way too many deer around here
3. Mightyana - There's this big black wild dog that live near the train tracks behind the BBQ place around 15 minutes from my house.
4. Yanma - I remember there being a shitload of dragonflies around my old elementary school
5. Smeargle - There are a bunch of stores in town right between the hipster and poor neighborhoods that are all covered in street art.
6. Pachirisu - Like deer, there are fucking squirrels everywhere around here.
>>322022832
im guessing youll get 5 free pokeballs per week, charge maybe 5-10 cents per ball type
but how long till jailbreak fags ruin it, and just straight up merk people with their teams of god liked hacked rare pokes.
>>322022739
How'd you come up with microtranactions and then say there isn't much details about the game? Are you fucking stupid?

>>322023132
>Unsurprisingly this will be free-to-play but with microtransactions, while the Go accessory will no doubt be a hot ticket item in stores if the app achieves early success.
