I keep imagining the final evolution looking like a fire Feraligatr
Id like all of those options but we know Fuecoco is gonna end up looking like a human/croc hybrid with some kind of human theme or job.
I deeply hate those characters designsFrom a friend:
From a friend:
Lmao those are touhou characters(Flandre Scarlet and Sumireko who is the protag of a game called Violet detector and her name means violet child)
they really just pulling shit of the internet now, huh?From a friend:
The gen 2 ones do sound better since they were just cleaned up, but a lot of the gen 1 sound worse quality than the originals somehow? Like they mixed a bunch of noise together and made it harder to hear the actual cry. Look at Charizard, for example, the original is cleaner. Maybe it was an attempt to make them sound more natural, but some of them just sound like grumbling to me.
Still miles and leagues better than any anime cry though.
There was a datamine of PLA that uncovered a special ball in both PLA and BDSP after the update that seems to be the transfer from PLA to the future ball
Its the big green one
Bah, they can't just do the obvious thing and turn Old Pokeballs into Pokeballs, can they? Guess nothing from PLA will be contributing to my Pokeball-only Living Dex, then.
And people thought fighting the guardians in Legends Arecus was hard.From a friend:
yeah we are, we know BDSP and PLA are getting access this year, but no exact date
Another thing I want to see is the UI they're gonna use for SV. You can say whatever you want about SwSh, but the UI was definitely high quality, it was very modern and fresh and elegant, it had the right font style and size, perfect icons, great distribution, the colors weren't so saturated and childish.
From the menus
to the battle screen
the boxes
well, my only complaint with the boxes is that I wish we could see both the stats and the Pokémon model at the same time
the Pokédex was also very easy to read, very clear,
everything in general just looks very sleek, so I wish SV continues this path instead of going for something too
Pokémon Legends was also good, but I think it was too tailored for the elements and style of the game
but my issue with Legends' menus is that is not very intuitive. That thing about using ZL and ZR and other things always have me wondering what is the button I need to use to this day lol
And the boxes just showing the Pokémon faces, I didn't like that.

SS's UI was practically built for it
For sure, the Sword and Shield UI is the best they've done. The menus in Arceus are a mess to use, even if they look pleasing in photos.Another thing I want to see is the UI they're gonna use for SV.

I liked this from a visual standpoint, but it made recognizing Pokémon at a glance super hard.
It's kind of the problem with the UI of Legends in general, it's the best looking UI by far but the UX leaves a lot to be desired

100%. I always forget how much I enjoyed the UI and Navigation in Sw/Sh until I open it back up for a spell, and every time it is so jarring to go back to any other game after that.
Arceus has some stylish menus that I enjoy the look of, but it's baffling that there are three different buttons that pause the game in different ways, and none of them are on +. I'm in the post game and constantly press the wrong buttons, even now. And that can very easily get you killed. Like when you try to change your active Pokemon, but change your mount instead...mid-flight.
Baby steps!
(Actually, I'm leaning towards not expecting touchscreen support. Some 1st party titles never had touchscreen support to begin with.)
I expect large, high-resolution icons to be the norm for this, including close-ups of the Pokemon faces. People just recognize faces easier. And it was jarring then to see the same old sprite art from maybe the DS games poorly enlarged on the TV on the Switch. So it just seems like a holdover like how they continued to use the gen 6 models in Sword/Shield. They're growing into a more console-centric design, by doing things that couldn't be done on handhelds of before.
what the heck, when I found out we'd be getting those amazing green pokeballs i was like heck yes i am going to transfer everything
They updated the sprites in SWSH. Also I'd argue the full body pixelated sprites are more recognizable than the round circle with a face in it from Legends.
For all the shit I give SWSH I'll agree that the UI there is the best it's ever been. I already miss those type icons.
It definitely feels harder to find specific Pokémon in Legends than in SWSH
Oh, you reminded me of the horror: Scarlet/Violet might use PLA close up avatars, because of how they all share assets.
I personally think SwSh's UI is way too bland.
Anyways, I also prefer menu sprites for Pokemon, they just need to represent shinies.

FUCKING RIGHT?!
Two things I finally let go off in the last few hours of the game:
1) holding on to evolution items
2) how messy the pastures are
I just want to find a pokemon I'm looking for fast. the pasture is straight garbage for sorting and finding. even the search is trash because it doesn't even list what you want, just greys what isn't your search.
I just released a load of pokemon for grit and now I'm saddled with all these holes across 11 pages. why is there no button to push everything up? and for that matter, why doesn't this game have a "go to pokedex entry" shortcut? that's the primary reason I even keep going back to the pastures
It's especially frustrating because they solved this exact problem perfectly well in LGPE, and then just completely forgot about it.
Hasn't box/pasture always been lacking? I can't remember how it was in SW/SH but I feel like I remember wishing it was easier to navigate and sort things. Regardless it was definitely bad in PLA and I sincerely hope it gets fixed. Especially when the game did a much better job at actually encouraging you to catch a bunch of stuff.
I do hope SV, and hell pokemon Home too, introduce some sort of autosort feature eventually, just being able to press a button and sort by type/level/dex number etc would be so helpful
Nothing will ever be worst than the disparity in organization features between the Switch and mobile versions of Home.
Want to change boxes on the go? Too bad, only Switch can do that
Want to assign labels on Switch? Nope, take out your phone instead.
Labels are such a powerful organization tool but the segmentation is just so dumb. Home really needs more features. Remember Great Oak? What ever happened to him?

Sprites, by their very nature, don't scale up well to higher resolutions.
Agreed, Home is like a quarter of a good app on each platform. There's no good reason for the feature segmentation at all.
I really hope regional variants return in this game. I do wonder how many will end up being Ice Type like with Alola.
I don't think it's happening for Mega Lopunny returning as a regional Ice/Fighting type.
Its likely not happening sadly. But i could totally see Buneary and Lopunny becoming Normal Ice or Pure Ice. We technically have not had a Snow Bunny Pokemon.
Perhaps a new Bunny Pokemon is in works for Scarlet/Violet.
Possible but i don't think we will get a Bunny Pokemon so soon after Scorbunny. I think a regional variant might make sense.
