Absolutely trash
Where were you when Pokemon GO was kill?
It's always nice that we can express our opinions nicely and respect that each other feel that way here on /vp/.

Hey OP, don't forget that trainers look like pic related.
Get ready for the absolute cringefest.
Glad I never really had much investment in it to begin with.
All it seemed like to me was a neat pokemon catching mini game for your phone, which is useless to those who have already caught em all.
I was hoping it would be better, but I had no delusion that it would be.
Here's the actual blog post

idk what you are talking about faggot OP but it looks like a fun game
10/10 would play all day

You have no one to blame but yourself for thinking this would be anything but trash from the getgo.

I'd try it, doesn't sound that bad as far as mobile games go, but it is underwhelming. Good think I kept my expectations in check.
I don't have a problem with this since it's free.
I know in-app purchases are a thing, but from the sound of it you can get a few bros and still have fun for free unless you're too autistic to just chill without having everything ever.
It's not like they're asking 40 bucks for it.
Hope Gamefreak don't make one S&M pokemon only obtainable if you have caught pokemon on the hipster app. I don't want to have to buy a smartphone just to complete my dex, I have a regular mobile that doesn't cost a fortune to use each month and a 3DS, why would I want a phone full of shit casual games.

That'd be utter shit, but at least you could trade for it.

>at least you could trade for it.
The trouble is, most smartphone owners would find a game like pokemon too complicated or not have the attention span to cope with something you can play for more than 10 minutes without hitting a paywall. This would make the pokemon super rare for trades as there won't be many that have the app and the real game.
>people were hype for GO in the first place

it would have to be unbreedable
just wait 5 minutes after the first breeder has its hands on it for shiny breeding and there will be thousands flooding the trades
