    but that is a weird one

    that was one of the best things about the old games :?

    the weird camera action in fights is something that sorta bugs me, but I gotta say that the move Flame Charge looks AWESOME

    yeah

    bingo

    I don't really care about names

    I would like the game just as much if I couldn't nickname myself or my pikmen, too

    each game has more postgame content than the last (can't speak for B/W but definitely true up through HG/SS)

    and a lot of the content is online battles so I can see how that would detract from it

    I've enjoyed every previous pokemon game to some extent, and this might be the first game I don't want

    I'm kinda frustrated about that :c

    I was wondering what the ruling was. I thought it was just 'the first Pokemon out there gets more' when I was switching low-levels out for motherfuckers for levelling needs.

    It's better in context, I think. It is very different than previous games, which is why it probably seems overwhelming to see all the changes at once rather than gradually.

    Manmanmanmanman I can't wait till I get this. I'm getting a Snivy, and my buddy is getting an Oshawott and his cousin is getting a Tepig and we are going to have fun and do tradsies and stuff but I don't have it yet because someone bought it as a gift to me so I hate them.

    Wait people are comlaining that it's too similar to the old games? It's a pokemon game. There's not a lot of flexibility that can be injected into the formula.

    Well, more that there's not a lot of flexibility they are willing to inject into the game.

    Don't mess with a winning formula and all.
