No. It's scaled down based on the level of the Pokémon in the team who didn't fight.
The sound settings thing is so hilariously dumb I don't even know how they thought it was a good idea.
As a boomer that wouldn't mind if they went back to grid-based.
Can you fucking imagine the outrage if they announced gen 9 with a static camera?
Oh interesting. I'll have to see the formula then, maybe the part that we're missing from that interview is that having fewer Pokemon means the one that fights gets more exp? It's the only thing that makes sense.
this makes it sound like they almost think some people only play Pokémon. While I'm sure that's the case for a very small amount of people, I'm pretty sure most who own a Switch know what the second analog stick does.
I get being kid friendly but when pretty much every other kid friendly franchise implements it, it looks ridiculous. Fortnite is basically high level algebra compared to Pokémon in terms of inputs.
Probably possible depending on how the exp share effect is implemented but I'd say most items couldn't properly do anything without a lot of backend workJust reading this new article:
Interview with GAME FREAK’s Ohmori and Masuda on Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield
We discuss the creation of the new Pokémon RPG adventure with the games’ director and producer.www.pokemon.com
Why do so many of Game Freak's responses sound so incredibly weird? Like, nobody can possibly believe this. Game Freak obviously plays Pokémon. How can anyone come to this conclusion and just keep saying it over and over again? 😫
I wonder how easy it would be to restore the functionality of the partially listed item in the data. That seems like something plausible and patchable.
at the very least hackers would probably be able to disable the effect, even if putting a toggle in is a bit outside the scope
Are there any details on which Pokémon will only be available in Sword and Shield via Pokémon Home transfer? Would like to get 'em ready!
There has to be. All the bugs we're seeing are the kind of bugs that get fixed by a day-one patch.
The game is literally confused about what to do next. That's new lol.
We have 35 extra beyond the dex, Alola/Kanto starters and some legends. I'm sure someone has a list.
as someone who's generally pretty easy to please with these games, I think gen 9 having a static camera would stress me out. A big issue with S/M I have is how little of the world you see on screen despite it being a 3D world, due to lack of the camera being controllable
Here you go!
EDIT: Although, it's very likely that these will be given away through Mystery Gift at some point, too.
To add more to this, Ninetales doesn't faint despite being OHKO'd, but Quagsire does for some reason despite being burned one time?
Man what is happening? Game seems broken. Is this being emulated or these are issues on switch?
Bulbasaur line
Blastoise line
Mewtwo
Mew (also through pokeball plus)
Celebi
Jirachi
Cobalion, Virizion, Terrakion, Keldeo
Zekrom, Reshiram, Kyurem
Rowlet line
Litten line
Popplio line
Cosmog line(s)
Necrozma
Marshadow
Zeraora
Meltan & Melmetal
It's the same dump of the original streamer so I don't think the ROM is broken
Man, it's so weird to see such an unpolished Pokemon game on the market. I really hope there is a Day 1 patch and please for the love of god take a year off next year.
Generally emulation wouldn't cause these kinds of issues, just graphical bugs, slowdown, or hard crashes.
It's definitely worth waiting to see though, it really is bizarre to see that in a Pokemon game, XY's Lumoise City not withstanding.
There won't be. If this has made it past QA, then they're likely way behind on fixing them. I wouldn't expect a bug patch for a month at least.
Some ROMs don't work properly even if they're dumped from a legit source.
I haven't seen the whole context behind the clips, but since they're all Gym battles, I'm guessing there's some weird edge cases related to Dynamax/Gigantamax and their effects related to other mechanics?

The best part of that answer for me is this:
Yeah, Ohmori, way more intuitive to throw all my other Pokémon into a box so that they don't gain experience without battling than it is to turn off sharing
Slurpuff line lost Belly Drum and its one niche.
Also, updates on Roost/Knock Off distribution (not counting transfers from previous gens):

On/Off Switch = Too alientating for players, nobody ever turned it off in our data!
Move all Pokemon but one to a PC, repeat this process for every Pokemon = convenient difficulty toggle!
Thanks Ohmori.
You know what the wildest thing would be?
If some of these glitches actually turn out to be anti-piracy stuff to prevent playing roms or playing the game early.
Somehow, I really doubt that's the case though.

I guess we'll find out tomorrow when reviews hit if the game is really as buggy as it looks. I just find it weird that the first leaker, the one who had the review copy, didn't mention any of this. I feel like he would've said something if the game was such a mess.
When played on an emulator, sure. This is native hardware though.
I saw an article on reddit about sound options being lockeed behind an optional key item, did I miss that discussion?
Honestly, thank god they massively cut down on the amount of Pokemon that can learn Knock Off. That move is seriously over-powered and has no drawbacks.
What the hell. There has to be some fuckery here. Either a bad dump, anti-piracy or something. I refuse to believe Game Freak shipped a game in this state.
Edit: There you go.
Yeah that seems odd to me too. Wondering if these are pirated copies that are shitting the bed.
This is crazy...has anyone else had Dynamax bugs that I missed?
EDIT: Ah. Cheats. There we go.
