FlipMode 141 Posted July 25, 2019 I was very late to the game (quite literally) with Pokemon. I liked the anime as a kid but I was never into the games. Pokemon Sun was my first proper Pokemon mainline RPG game and I loved it. Enjoyed Lets Go as well. Looking forward to this one. I'm not super into Pokemon but I do play a lot of RPG and yeah - I've enjoyed what I have played of them so far so I'll be getting Shield. 1 ocean's rage reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ventus_ 396 Posted July 28, 2019 I'm looking forward to these games despite being disappointed at the prospect of not having the national dex. I got over the Pokemon anime at the start of Hoenn but have always had an on and off interest in the games and at least 2 of the starters, Grookie and Sobble are cute. I'm leaning towards sobble myself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just hope they come up with something for the national dex, it wasn't the first time since we lacked the inclusion of the Dex. Wasn't Sun/Moon/Ultra Moon/Ultra Sun lacking a national dex?

I'm loving this game the more I see of it! And seriously, Team Yell? I swear, the teams in Pokemon games are starting to border on ridiculous. What happened to the badass teams like Aqua, Magma, Galactic and Plasma? Now those were threatening! Oh well, but I shouldn't underestimate them, I guess.

jbmasta 67 Posted August 11, 2019 (edited) Team Yell reminds me of football fans. Fanatically obsessed and actively against anyone who doesn't like their team. They could have had two antagonistic teams to reflect this, and it'd have made more sense than Team Aqua vs Team Magma in Hoenn. It could also offer a different angle in that while observers think they're just hooligans, they still cause trouble through their conflicts. To add some character depth to the player character, maybe the PC supports the opposite team who's antagonising everyone, and the more the player character achieves, the more they're harassed. The way Team Yell fanatically support one of the rivals also puts me in mind of fandoms of pop stars. The kinds of fans who jealously desire to protect the object of their fascination, who show up in crowds with signs saying "marry me" and hate whoever is dating their beloved singer the person being dated isn't them.
