I won't deny a few things look cool.

I like the new UI and I'm still excited to see Hawaii as a pokemon region. The cast of characters so far is pretty interesting too.

Other than that, I can't find much to be excited for. This just seems like a soulless rehash of XY they're getting in before the NX comes out.

Not really the problem. People are getting bored of "designated ice mountain" in every gen, especially since they're all late game.

Look at Salamence, its the same stupid fucking floating model. No movement, just gliding back and forth. Also the framerate drops are still there in the trailer. A couple Interface changes aern't "improvements on graphics and animations"


>rival is your best friend instead of some asshole you want to prove yourself to
>I hate the asshole rivals honestly, I liked Barry and Wally a hell of a lot more.

Its not about whether, they are your friend or not, its if they are still a challenge to overcome. Barry was a competent foe, his team was well rounded. But when you look at shit like BW2 and X and Y, none of the rivals EVER provide a challenge.
>>
>>26569136

I think he means for the pokemon. Salamance was still hovering off the ground which means the stupid sky battle animations are here to stay

It's gliding you fag, how else would you animate it? Putting it on the ground would be retarded because it's entire evolution line is about wanting to fly and have it flap it's wings would look even worse.
>Also the framerate drops are still there in the trailer.
That shit legitimately pisses me off though.

Gary and Silver weren't hard either.

Steel/Psychic is still a fairly decent typing. Mega Metagross and Jirachi come to mind. Lunala is JUST tier though.

The abilities thing is funny considering how Sugimori talked about cutting down on the redundancies.

We knew there would be lots of old Pokemon based on concept arts alone.

Graphics thing sucks but I can't say it wasn't expected. I hope that the game at least runs better on the n3DS.

Everything else is assumptions.

Honestly with the synchro thing heavily implied it looks like we might be getting a repeat of XY (lots of old Pokemon, small number of new Pokemon with a few dozen of synchros).

Eh big deal, as long as they don't fuck up the postgame I don't really care.
>>
>>26568885

Don't forget fixed camera angles.

"OH LOOK, IT'S IN FULL 3D, BUT YOU CAN'T SEE WHERE YOU'RE GOING HALF THE TIME, AND THE CAMERA WILL RANDOMLY CHANGE ITS ANGLE."

I don't think you know what bait is, we know nothing about the professor and so your conjecture of him being great is ONLY conjecture, and some of us fucking hate the Rotom thing - understand what opinions are and realise that there are plenty of us that hate this shit.

But, you know, as >>26568999 said, the apologists will defend these games forever.

Pokemon is lacklustre and innovates at a snail's pace compared to pretty much any other fucking franchise except maybe Tetris.

Sun and Moon can fuck off, and I hope all the GameFreak staff die a horrible death tomorrow.

>>sun legendary is weak to fire

Stop complaining. They are just have a special association to the Sun and the Moon. Like, they are creatures that have adapted extra abilities under the influence of these respective celesital bodies and have as such recieved their legendary status since humans themselves made the connection. They ARE not THE sun nor moon. The lion for instance, has adapted to harness solar power i assume. Something it has to live on the surface to do, where it hardly gets hotter than 50 degrees. Adapting to the sun does NOT mean that it's ready to go live in a volcano. Think plants and solar cells

And btw, the sun is not fire and "dark" type doesn't refer to darkness

Japanese kids need more safespaces than a liberal arts major these days. Nintendo had to cut Resetti as a mainstay of Animal Crossing because he frightened little kids.
That's the reason Pokemon has gone to shit. Game Freak is afraid to challenge or frustrate children because they will just quit and play some mobile shit otherwise.

Literally all of the above apply to BW2 yet a great majority of /vp/ hails those games as the pinnacle of the series, so I don't know why the fuck you guys are whining now. At this point it feels like this board doesn't even like Pokemon, you're here just to complain. Fucking kill yourselves or at the very least leave /vp/ for good.

I dont agree with all of your post, but this right here is definitely the sole problem with the pokemon franchise. Its become so, so stale. I came back to this board hoping maybe the new game would spark my interest in Pokemon again but...its just fucking X/Y again.
>>
>>26570878
I don't think you understand the point. Irregardless if it's in every game, that doesn't make it any less shit. It's another repetitive, formulaic decision that becomes more obvious as the games progress.
It was bad in gen 1 when they kept most ice types inaccessible for a good part of the game, and it's going to be bad again if they decide to continue the trend.

>moon legendary is weak to dark

There's nothing wrong with this. In Pokemon, the moon has always been associated with the Normal type, and more recently with Fairy. No Dark types use a moon stone to evolve, and only two Dark types learn Moonlight, which was a Normal type move until it was changed to Fairy.

The only Dark type Pokemon with ties to the moon is Umbreon, and even it is more associated with nighttime in general rather than specifically the moon.

I was keep my hype levels low in the first place after Gen VI crushed me, but it's just sank to rock bottom. This is going to be XY2.0 and there's nothing we can do about it. The Gen VI Exp. Share will be back, Gym Leaders won't have more than three Pokémon, all the bad shit from XY will return.

At least I can pirate it this time instead of giving them my money for this.

It would have been better if that team suddenly popped up before Elite Four, instead of the only progression of getting new mons was a Bouffalant.
If he replaced that damn Unfezant with a Braviary, i'd have at least been content but it just felt too much like Cherens potential team, there was no sort of unique flavour to it..

>Literally all of the above apply to BW2

BW2 is a third version, though, not a new Gen (inb4 6.5fags). Of course any Dex changes will be old Pokémon coming into the region, we've never had a third version that added new Pokémon to the regional Dex (except Platinum because they locked half the cross-gens away until after the E4 in DP for some reason), and we've never had a third version that substantially improved on the graphics. And Hugh is an asshole, just not to you, he could be better but he's not "hey we're friends, I love dancing/malasada, we're friends!"

What would be a non-issue with a third version is pretty damning with a new Gen. Every Gen has improved the visuals of the last Gen. Even when they stayed on the same system as the previous Gen there were still improvements, GSC being full color with non-shit sprites compared to RBY and BW being fully animated instead of static sprites. Gen VII battles are identical to Gen VI battles.

Also, BW2 at least included a challenge mode, albeit one with retarded unlock requirements. Challenge mode is probably still easier than Platinum but it's a lot closer than BW1 or XY.

>Sun legendary is weak to fire

Not a flaw, it's a design choice, for a reason that will have to do with plot

Reminder that Black had the White legendary

>"all new abilities" are just old renamed abilities

Not really a problem, better than having Pressure for the millionth time

>alarming number of national Pokemon spotted

You guys are aware that ever since Black and White they made the regions filled with all Pokemon types right? The variety was better for it, we can't judge Pokemon number just yet

>no improvements on graphics or animations

You fucking what, no more chibi models, the camera angles are a lot better, battles themselves have trainers and spectators, and it's not grid based anymore when you look at how route designs are

>designated ice mountain

Just like every gen since 2

>pokedex rotom hand-holding pretty much means the game will be easier gen 6

What made Gen 6 easy was the linearity and the levels of gym leaders, a Pokedex helper you can turn off won't change a damn thing if the above are dealth with, which is high possible given how vast Hawaii actually is

>bottom screen is %40 padding

Every single gen has the bottom screen be a bunch of gimmick watches or pad or whatever, why should it change, it's perfect

>rival is your best friend instead of some asshole you want to prove yourself to

No where did it say he was your rivalC he chooses he Pokemon weak to yours, there's also nothing wrong with friends, why do people pretend Barry doesn't exist?

>water routes

That wasn't the problem with Hoenn, it was the typing variery
