Looks like what I feared. No rememerable route designs, just generic empty biomes straight out of the previous game (PLA). Can you honestly say you remember what anything looked like in PLA?

Pawmi is probably the pikachu clone? It doesn't have any interesting naming or ability though. Unlike Morepeko and before. They simply call it a mouse pokemon. This hasn't been done since gen 1, and the last was Bidoof which was called a Plump Mouse to distinguish a bit. These are all signs pokemon is getting lazier. The design itself is fine though. Ability wise it's literally just pikachu. Not sure if it was worth losing the national dex over filler mon like this.

Lechonk seems to be Gluttony personified. Non-memorable joke mon for the anime. Swinub is cooler. But at least it's non-offensive.

Smoliv is fine. Non-filler mon, hopefully tree-stage.

Legendaries are cool, too.

Professor Turo is lame for racist reasons. Don't care for Sada either.

The route design is what worries me the most though. It just doesn't seem to exist.

i think they’re going all in on the free roam open world according to the website. unfortunately this could mean open plains again. honestly the pika clone looks better in the 2d art than in the 3d style which is weird since I thought since going to 3d they’d synchronize better between art and 3d model. I like the olive but I’m just a basic bitch

In gen 1, silph co. made pokeballs, as evidenced by the CEO giving you a master ball.
In gen 2, Kurt made pokeballs out of berries somehow, indicating that this is how they used to be made. professor elm also says that before the invention of the pokeball, pokemon would walk besides their trainers.
In gen 3, Devon made pokeballs, as evidenced by an employee giving you a "new" greatball.
Not sure about the rest tho

pokeballs were the worst invention in the pokemon world it seems

pokemons were allowed to be free albeit with their partner, at most you would have 3 or 4

but because of their invention, pokemon literally became commodity, stuffed and collected into hundreds

they need to execute the ceos of silph.co and devon

but first, that guy who is dressed up as a pokeball must pay

Not hand-holding your Gardevoir is emotional abuse.

 No.24363

I don't get how people praise B/W for having a story that criticizes the relationship between pokemon and trainers when the game treats anyone (team plasma) as being an idiot for suggesting it's weird to be concerned about how pokemon are treated on top of every team plasma member being depicted as a hypocrite. And that's not even getting into major spoilers like Ghetis turning out to not actually care to liberate pokemon and just wanting to takeover the region and tricking N to serve that purpose. It's been a while since I played it, but it seems the story doesn't really explore the concept at all. (I've never played B/W2).

 No.24389

>>24363
Imo it was an underutilized concept in BW because the game had to go back to the status quo at the end. Can't really have the player feel guilt for catching and battling with Pokemon since that's the point of the games.

 No.26574

>>26573
Ole design are extremely simple, orange dragon, blue turtle with cannons, toad with a plant. If you were to remove certain detail charizard, blastoise, Venusaur would look pretty basic and unoriginal. Now the designer have to come up with all kinds of details and design choices, they have to do that because in modern times a lot of design are already being used, they have to come up with even more and more original and unique ideas so that new Pokémon would look unique and marketable, that’s why new design have much more detail then the old ones, for example the new duck and crocodile starters have unnecessary lines on their bodies that are there so they would look different from all the other fire crocodiles and humanoid duck.

Damn, that lynx has some serious fuckin' curves, and a cool carnival theme to boot.
How did they fuck up so bad with the other ones though? The crocodile generally looks like something out of a Chinese Pokemon knockoff mobile game, while the bird got some weird bulbs instead of feet, just for starters. Why go with random nonsense instead of more organic shapes, just why?
