I would call the new ones not even interesting enough to pirate, so yes.
Something like sword/arceus style but not garbage with mechanics around the gba era.
So no giga dumbshit or similar but still special/physical change.
Also if we're requesting unicorns be brought to reality, more options. I wouldn't hate the all the new giga shit if I could disable its cutscenes. It wasn't even cool the first time.
I didn't really like the games when they were the new hotness and think the format of Arceus is way, way better.
at least to unova generation and a little 6th generation. not after MASUDA went all "i dont like pokemon anymore, so im going to create a half-assed game" aftER SWSH, and i have heard nothing but bad reviews from every game since, glad i dint get a switch.
they still have triple battles? and special and physical are not seperate anymore?
i mostly play card game LIVE, which is barely a functioning game.
Not particularly, but I've played maybe 40 minutes of pokemon in my life total so my opinion probably shouldn't count.
More zelda like aLttP, though....
I’m not totally sure what that would add to the experience. The core battles are still the same, just with more added on. I like pixel graphics and old gameboy music, but I don’t see why people would buy it. It’s seems strange considering it would be the same game as before, but less.
Pokémon: Violet except: it’s 2D, scarcely animated, without double-battles, without shinies, without several types, without terastallizing, without the open world, without the rideable legendary, and so on.
That was me imagining it if it were limited to gen 1 gameplay. Maybe there’s a case to remake regions in like a style like emerald, but I still think it’s just a game that already exists but with less.
If you don’t know about them already, you should look into pokémon rom-hacks. Some are kinda like what you described, but they add their own twist like changing the story, adding new types, or adding newer pokémon or mechanics. A lot of them are really well made too.
Bro what do you mean, if there’s a single franchise that has not changed its mechanics is Pokémon. Maybe you mean a game absent the gimmick mechanic they put in every gen? Or are you crazy enough to suggest we go back to the days before physical/special split?
