Pokemon Video Game • Page 188

Oh god I missed that the device in this game is a Rotom phone

I was so tired of hearing my Rotom Dex talk dammit

 

when i first saw it, it screamed the rumored "armored form" to me but i feel they would've announced it as such

 

I’m sold on choosing Sword. Zacian looks awesome.

 

Unless I missed it, how was aegislash not shown lol

 

I JUST WATCHED THE DIRECT AND I AM CAPTURING SIF YOU CAN'T STOP ME SWORD ALL DAY BBBBBBBBBBB

 

Typings for the new pokes (minus legendaries) and a bit more info on wild encounters are on the Pokemon site.

 

GIVE IT TO ME I LOVE HIM

 

Real curious to know the kegendary’s typing, guessing steel is involved but I doubt they’re pure steel.

 

Drednaw is the best new pkmn so far. Water/Rock is a good type.

 

how am i supposed to get anything done today after watching that, i need it right now

 

Dynamax feels like a cross between mega-evolution and Z-moves. Increased stats and move power, but limited to one Pokemon for 3 moves.. I'm pretty indifferent about it now.

 

Looks like I'm definitely getting a Nintendo Switch this year.

 

Can any Pokemon be dynamaxed?

If you dynamax a Magikarp does Splash become an actual water move?

 

Corviknight - Flying/ Steel (surprised it's not flying/dark)
Gossfleur - Grass
Eldegoss - Grass
Wooloo - Normal
Drednaw - Water/ Rock


I may not pick Sobble now, since I want a Drednaw so much.

 

Didn’t see the direct yet but I saw some pics and the raven looks nice

 

My immediate reactions:

- I need Corviknight on my team ASAP. Shout out to whomever called it the emo bird.
- Since the video said that Corviknight will fly players to anywhere on the map they've been to before I'm going to take that as confirmation that ride Pokemon are returning and we won't have HMs. I hope that's the case.
- I'm not big on Dynamaxing, but I'll probably come around on it. My immediate thought was "HEY, THAT'S NOT REALISTIC!" But now I'm remembering that this is a video game series based on glorified dog fighting, and maybe I shouldn't judge things so harshly.
- I'm so happy that we'll still have Pokemon appear in the overworld.
- FINALLY WE CAN CONTROL THE CAMERA!
- I think that Sword is going to largely outsell Shield. Not all, but most people are going to choose the attacking legendary over the defensive legendary. That being said, I'll probably reserve my choice for when we find out what the game exclusives are.

 

I'm gonna guess that not all Pokémon can be Dynamaxed and it'll be limited to a certain amount in different games. No way they'll do that for every one available in game right? It'll be like Mega Evolution in that way.

 

Just let me know when I can dump every single Pokemon into this game

 

Drednaw and Corviknight are everything I have wanted in new pokemon!

 

I'm pretty sure they explicitly said in the Direct that not all Pokémon can be dynamaxed

Also is it just me or is it kind of weird that there has never been a Pokémon called "Dynamax" lol seems like a layup name for a t-rex-looking Pokémon

 

Drednaw looks awesome, but based on the landscape of the Galar region I think Grass Pokemon are going to be pretty prevalent, and Water/Rock typing will get wrecked by Grass. Hopefully I'm wrong about that though.

 

The camera control is a HUGE upgrade.

 

Graphically this looks like everything I have ever wanted from a Pokemon game.

 

looks like this leak was accurate, a lot more info in here
