Pokémon Sword & Shield Gameplay Reveal Trailer. Raid Battles, New Dynamax Mechanic, Overworld Pokémon Encounters, New Pokémon (out Nov 15, 2019)
- Thread starter Xavi
- Start date
I hope the evolution is based on valkyriesI hope it evolves into something big and menacing, or at least big and funny
Oh yeah I just thought that was Refresh...didn't even see the tent!They're talking about this. This is definitely the Camping mechanic (the new amie)
Yeah, I was hoping for a tamer gimmick this time, that could spice up a bit battles and make some mons more viable. Unfortunately this dynamax seems another lame gimmick like the last ones we got in XY and SuMo. I just hope they don't let this crap infect a possible Gen IV remake.
According to leaks, Team Yell is the "evil" team.
Yell -> Yellow.
Mind blown.
As a Dark Souls fan, Zacian is my must-have pokemon. Corviknight looks badass too, hopefully it's as awesome as it looks. Dynamax...? It sounds like they're changing things up just for the sake changing things up.
Pros:
-Graphics (game looks nice on the eyes and pleasant to look at)
-Open world areas with non-random encounters
-Gyms being a big event, like a sports game (also gyms are back~)
-New professor is dope
-XY player customization seems to be back
Cons:
-The big pokemon gimmick is silly
-Rival looks meh
-Still somewhat expressionless protagonist (from what we've seen)
Overall i'm excited to see more about this game

I'm someone who enjoys reading fakes and watching PokéTuber's cover fakes but yeah it's annoying watching people complain when fakes turns out to be fakes and bash the real thing because they let fakes go to their head. Now I'm waiting for the legion of fakes that'll do damage control for the Dynamax mechanic.
Armoured stuff can still be real cause of Armoured Mewtwo no?
Nah, that's the most bare bones pokemon mainline cover since...Black and White (which at least had a name reason to be like that).
If that was the case, then why are there still random encounters?

No, it was confirmed that it was only the Mewtwo armor in the Pokémon movie that is a remake of the original. They changed the armor. It's like Dark Mewtwo in Pokken or Dark Lugia in Colosseum.
fuck man this game is so ugly. People compare it to breath of the wild but it doesn't hold a candle to it! I wished they would have done a traditional looking game like Pokemon lets go! if they are unable to build a good looking world. It looks like a 3ds game upscaled via emulator
- There's still more from that gimmick, if the leaks are 100% correct
- There's two more, again, if the leaks are correct
- What? They had a lot more expression, just look at them in this trailer. The 'death stare' from SM is gone.

I wonder the extent of the Wild Area in the region. does it go all the way up to the mountains? because I want there to be a number of biomes that can be explored with the camera and bike and whatnot. I do worry about what they mean when they said "new pokemon" each day, as I fear the 24 hour clock is making a return.
While I do like Mega Evolutions and Regional forms I would gladly give them up what you describe as a core of a good Pokémon game.
I just want a feature or a mass Thanos finger snap to happen that will improve older Pokémon. I don't like the idea of them being left behind because of the power creep each gen.
I'll just post it again because I fall in love with it the more I see it
I'm in love with the color palette and the way it's colored

Graphics whining post I guess...I'm super excited to get this and I haven't been this excited for a Pokemon game in years. With that out of the way, how is this a late 2019 video game? I love Gamefreak, but what the fuck is this?
Game Freak really needs some of Nintendo's other teams to help them.
The open world isn't even the entire game and yet it looks way worse than every other first party game, by far. I'm happy Pokemon is finally taking this step into modern game design, but I really wish Game Freak didn't get a pass on this shit just because it's Pokemon.
Like the difference between Xenoblade 2 (and Torna even moreso) and this is staggering.
Even BOTW, which left a lot to be desired visually, was miles ahead of this -- and that game was entirely open world.
There's just no real excuse for the mediocrity on display here.
I really hope the shiny version has black cotton.I'll just post it again because I fall in love with it the more I see it

It might have already been said, but Wooloo appears to be a Valais Blacknose sheep! So fluffy
This gen has the best Pokemon designs the series has seen in a long time
No.
The Armored Evolution "leak" came 1 week after the first Armored Mewtwo merchandise was listed.
It only got the names right, and the names were commonly guessed ones at that time as the consensus was a UK region
The "leak" stated that the legendary Pokémon are a horse and a snake. It's not.
Armored Mewtwo was officially stated by CoroCoro to be exclusive to the movie and all movie related content.
I'm still going for a resounding meh on it. If it's anything like Let's Go is, the roaming Pokemon just serves to make environments boring. There's no risk any more (I mean, you don't have wild battles in that game in the first place, but I did like the timing-your-throw mechanic). I'll still play the game; at least we'll still have trainer battles

You picked the worst screenshot possible from a game they said upfront it's not final footage (and we saw how much it improved compared to the last trailer). The game looks better than other Switch games already.
So Rotom is totally inside of the gym camera controlling it right?
Rotom are gradually taking over the world by taking advantage of humanity's ever increasing dependency on tech.
Those things are usually restricted to giving a new cap to Pikachu.
The light beams on those raid nodes remind me of those beams of light you get in BotW when a star fragment lands.
I thought the same thing when i saw it but it looks you can have more than one raid nearby
I kinda get it and agree to some extent, but at the same time I think the battles look great, and that will always be the main focus of a main Pokémon game. Like yeah, it would be nice to have an amazing overworld, but at the end once you finish the story, the thing you keep doing is playing battles, by yourself or online, and there may be routes, cities, etc that you will never visit again, especially the first ones with low level Pokémon. I'm not justifying mediocrity, I'm just saying that I also kinda get why they don't worry that much about that aspect. Or maybe they do and actually think it's an outstanding change compared to previous POKÉMON games, which is also true.
I'm getting Shield, it was an easy choice just like Sun and Alpha Sapphire... I get the one opposite my wife's choice, lol. She's a much bigger Pokémon fan than I.
If humans evolved from monkeys why are there still monkeys?
There were no problems in docked mode, and after patches. Especially with Torna.
Plus Game Freak's past few Pokemon games notoriously have had performance problems. I am skeptical things will be different this time.
Well, Xenoblade 2 ran at 720p and Let's Go ran at 1080p. Pokémon on handheld with graphics like Xenoblade 2 but running at 360p is not worth it.
I'm expecting it to become kinda pinkish or completely green.
I mean, black would be awesome, but considering the shinies that exist
Something like this would be cool too
Not sure what you're trying to say. The person I was responding to was trying to act like GF using overworld encounters doesn't come with its own set of problems, and that it automatically meant that it fixed the issues that came with random encounters. It didn't.
Can we stop with the Xeno comparisons? It runs like ass and has resolutions drops into the sub-SD range. If Pokemon has solid performans and stays between 900-1080p then I'll definitely enjoy it more than Xenoblade 2
