Source for the reveals?

@Meanlucario
Just check the /vp/ board, you’ll get a good idea of what’s what.

@Lord WyrmSpawN
4Chan isn’t my thing.

@Meanlucario
Well it has just about everything, including downloads of the game, so if you really want it, suck it up.

You know, I can’t even stand even call the Pokemon Community a “community”, cause it feel more like a “tribe” than a community.

I don’t know what happened to respecting other’s opinions? Cause I feel it doesn’t exist in the Pokemon Community.

@NitroFury
People hate where the franchise went, and the people making it aren’t listening. Frustrated people tend to be short-tempered.

@Meanlucario
And that’s the problem, disgruntled peoples seems to take their anger out on others.

@NitroFury
Yep. Sadly, I doubt either side will change anytime soon.

@Meanlucario
You know, I miss a time where we don’t judge a game based on its graphics, sound, nor music. We only judge the game by gameplay and that’s it, and I blame the PC Gaming Tech Bros and Corporations for brainwashing Western Gamers.

@NitroFury
Graphics are the least of people’s issues with Pokemon.

@Meanlucario
And hey, if they want Pokemon to change for the better, maybe these “fans” should stop listening to clowns like DistantKingdom or creating hashtags on Twitter and actually contact The Pokemon Company and Nintendo directly.

@NitroFury
That’s much easier said than done.

@NitroFury
…there was such a day? Perhaps back when text-based adventure games were the norm - that was long before Pokemon existed, though.

@NitroFury
Somehow, I doubt they would appreciate that level of openness.

And you what’s strange part, how come SwSh get a lot a flack, but New Pokemon Snap get a lot of praise?

@NitroFury
Because new animations and world immersion, a sequel to a very old spin-off, and no new, worthless battle gimmicks to cast off next game.

@Lord WyrmSpawN
Yeah, but nobody seems to realize how boring after; even the stunning graphics can’t save it from the fact that I nearly fall asleep while it.

Not to mention the total number of Pokemon in New Pokemon Snap is extremely. Since Bandi Namco Studios worked on this game, you’d expected to have them add every single Pokemon from every generation, right?

@NitroFury
No, because that only serves the battle system, and this is an entirely different way of enjoying pokemon. In an explcitly remote island setting, no less.

It’s not even comparing apples to oranges, it’s comparing apples to jet planes.

@NitroFury
Some people like a more calming experience. Maybe you just don’t see the beauty of admiring fantasy nature.

@NitroFury
Would you? The original Snap didn’t have 151 Pokemon, after all.

baby Pig finally gets her name~

also to top it off, baby’s first word so soon?

So adorable

“That’s the name you came up with.
Pigment.
It’s not even cool.”

My friend is planning on loaning me his copy of Sword or Shield in the near future, so I’m going to want to figure out my first-run team (and their nicknames). I’m down to:

Scorbunny (I always start with the fire starter)

Rookidee

Gossifleur (I almost always have a grass and water mon on my first team, but may drop this this time)

Arrokuda (I almost always have a grass and water mon on my first team, but may drop this this time)

Sinistea

Dreepy

Regional Corsola

Regional Ponyta

I’m aware there are three ghosts listed. I don’t fear doubling or tripling up on typings (especially for types I love like ghosts).
