A Maltese dog transposed to a sheet ghost would make so much sense omg.
Hey everyone! I got about 90 minutes of hands-on time with Pokémon Scarlet and have a bunch of content going up over the next couple of days on the channel.
Here's the preview discussion we did talking about everything, but in short I had a banger of a time:

hahah I did find it a little suspicious that you never got back to me on that 😉
Congrats on the shiny, and great to get confirmation of overworld shinies!
Are you allowed to say if you saw any new Pokemon or not?
Can't stress this enough I was like "wtf there's shit everywhere" lmao
Yeah, I suspected that at the time. Honestly so baffled as to why they decided to make the open world look so dead in that 14 minute trailer with all the Pokemon stood still surrounded by empty space.
These auto-battles resolve in seconds, passively, earning them XP in the process. Nintendo was sure to emphasize that this is less XP than they'd earn from a traditional battle, so as to not break the game balance, but it's a welcome addition if you want the freedom to explore the world without constantly breaking your concentration for a random battle.
From the Gamespot preview, nice to hear that
Also good to know that Mela is actually pretty hard

Omfg this game looks so good. Even the sandwich making game looks fun, reminds me of Cooking Mama
Legit megaton
Great for farming crafting material too!
I happened to take on the Path of Legends first, solving some simple environmental riddles to locate, in what had to be an intentional reference, a giant enemy crab. (I pointed this out to my Nintendo representatives and no one laughed.) After attacking its weak point for massive damage, it scurried off, and I had to locate it a second time. Having defeated it a second time, it escaped again, and I was warned in no uncertain terms not to follow it. There appears to be more to this questline than we were allowed to see in this short preview, but that also makes it hard to evaluate how engaging the Path of Legends will be in practice.
Very interesting

I feel like a lot of people will look this over, but the sandwich mini game is actually a great time lol
Give me a "world of inconvenient assholes" toggle and I'd probably turn it on.
I think the preview says that they didn't but they found it after climbing a cliff, so there might have been one but he missed it. Happened to me tons in Legends Arceus
Looks like Exp. Scaling is still in as well based on the footage of the battle vs. the trainer with the Slakoth
man one day I wll change my message ringtone to that shiny sound lol
At Pokémon Centers - outdoor structures that look like petrol stations rather than shops - there are trainers who give out challenges, like beating a certain number of nearby opponents in a set time, while there was a kind of collectible sidequest linked to one new thing that I can't mention.
Interesting!

Pokémon react to the weather. Farigiraf will run in circles during the rain while Bellibolt will hop around in excitement.
Wild Pokémon can spectate wild battles
Wild Pokémon react to the environment and some wild Pokémon will hide in the tall grass to run away

I can't watch videos at the moment, how many options there seem to be?
Climbing and Gliding are part of early game which means I shall be bum rushing to ice mountain to try and obtain the ice/dragon 😎
Couple of people mentioning that Mela has a 'tough' ace that can one-shot Water types, hmm, sounds like the Kappa to me.
