>another worthless rival who picks starter to your advantage
>you get elemental attacks right off the bat
>region seems pretty straightforward and that is with expecting more islands
I mean, SM looks better than ORAS but I wont expect nothing more than casualized and simplified game.

Nice blog ;)
Sadly we already knew it would be like this. I remember a previous interview where it was explicitly stated these games will be kid friendly, or in other words, easy.

>mfw that green haired fuck is just some random Hoku that becomes your friend when you move to Alola, and the real rival is a bully who's a jerk to newcomers but becomes your friend near the end of the game

Great blog, faggot.
Even if the shitskinned rival picks the one weak to you, it more than likely means he is the 'friendly' rival and the player character of the opposite gender will get the one your starter is weak to. Quit complaining about shit you know nothing about yet.

There is still no excuse for at least SOME difficulty for the long time players. I mean it is the 20th anniversary.

Yeah and Serena/Calem were great rivals who didnt act like crybabies everytime you defeated them.
Fucking fag
Yui is REAL!!1

That literally describes every Pokemon game.

When was the last time we had a competitive rival, you retard?
All we've had since DP (not counting remakes) is pansy ass friends who whine every time you run into them.

Fucking jobber doormats.

Still butthurt about Izabela?

Barry was a great autistic dude with a nice team, though. Brendan and May were the epitome of shitty rivals that didn't even evolve their starters to the third stage.
>>26278501
Yeah, its pretty much over for "hardcore fans"
