I apologize in advance if this thread is viewed as pointless and/or redundant. Since the starters were revealed I've been attempting (and only just failed an hour ago) to keep myself blind to everything coming in the new games. Now that I'm all caught up, I'm curious to know how /vp/ feels this generation is shaping up.
What's your favorite new pokemon?
What's your favorite alola form?
How do you feel about that island kahuna system (also could someone explain this to me, because I don't completely understand it)?
How do you feel about Ultra Beasts?
How do you feel about Z-moves?
How do you feel about character designs?
Is there anything left that would need to come for you to feel it's truly complete?
I'll give my thoughts in my next post.

Probably Mimkyu. Mudsdale is pretty cool.

Gym leaders with a different name.
>How do you feel about Ultra Beasts?
Mixed, leaning positive. On the one hand, Pokemon really needs difficult bosses that are hard because they are bullshit. On the other, they probably won't be hard because t's Pokemon, meaning they might kinda just be there.
>How do you feel about Z-moves?
I need more info to be sure. A One-time, 120 bp move isn't enough for most 'mons, unfortunately. If more get introduced that do something interesting, I might take more notice.
>How do you feel about character designs?
Overall, some of the most solid I have seen. Fat-magnet aside, I like all of what I have seen so far.
>Is there anything left that would need to come for you to feel it's truly complete?
Battle Frontier. I'd accept a shitty one, just more than the fucking Battle Tower/shittier french reskin.

favorite new pokemon: currently one of vikavolt, steenee, day lycanroc and ribombee
favorite alola form: sandshrew
kahunas: we needed something other than gyms after 20 years
ultra beasts: cautiously optimistic they'll be more than just weird pokemon mechanically
z-moves: gimmick, unimportant
characters: fucking incredible between mallow, wicke, gideon, ilima, lana, olivia, plumeria and guzma
whats missing: new megas, non gen 1 alolan forms, a postgame/reason to play after a month besides wifi and endless battles
>What's your favorite new pokemon?
Gotta go with Oricorio. I love the animal its based on and its cute as a button. Bewear close second.
>What's your favorite alola form?
Probably ninetales, but I feel like most of them are kinda "eh" so far. I think it's an awesome idea, but none of the current examples have really grabbed me so far.
>How do you feel about that island kahuna system (also could someone explain this to me, because I don't completely understand it)?
I think this has the potential to be cool and I know people have been begging them to mix up the whole get 8 badges, go fight elite four thing. I need to understand it better first, though.
>How do you feel about Ultra Beasts?
I think this looks AMAZING. I love the concept and I can't wait to learn more about them and fight them.
>How do you feel about Z-moves?
It's probably about time Pokemon got its own super move system. I'm curious about how much it will affect the game, but I wouldn't say I'' hyped for it. Pulverizing pancake looked awesome.
>How do you feel about character designs?
I feel like they're a step above last gen so far. Lillie is cute, Kukui is daddy, Team Skull looks rad. I like the designs from the institute too.
>Is there anything left that would need to come for you to feel it's truly complete?
I'm pretty satisfied and sufficiently hyped at this point!
>also could someone explain this to me, because I don't completely understand it
Basically, instead of gyms you just meet up with Trial Captains and they give you a sidequest to complete, with a totem battle at the end (which may or may not be counted as a separate trial. We're still not clear on all the details). Once you finish every trial on the island, you get to fight the Kahuna, who's the last boss of the island.
>What's your favorite new pokemon?
Mimikyu
>What's your favorite alola form?
Muk has won me over completely. Marowak before today.
>How do you feel about that island kahuna system (also could someone explain this to me, because I don't completely understand it)?
Thank god they're finally dropping the gym nonsense. It only took them two decades to try a different formula.
>How do you feel about Ultra Beasts?
Again, I appreciate then experimenting with new ideas. I like UB-01's design a lot more than the other two. I was hoping they'd all be really alien-looking rather than humanoid.
>How do you feel about Z-moves?
A pointless mechanic, but whatever.
>How do you feel about character designs?
None of them really stand out to me so far, other than Chicken. She's adorable.
>Is there anything left that would need to come for you to feel it's truly complete?
Give post-game.
>What's your favorite new pokemon?
Mimkyu
>What's your favorite alola form?
Muk
>How do you feel about that island kahuna system (also could someone explain this to me, because I don't completely understand it)?
They are all waifubait
>How do you feel about Ultra Beasts?
I don't fucking get them
>How do you feel about Z-moves?
I think it is just adding more stuff to pokemon, Z-Moves, Mega Evolve, Alolan Forms, Primal Forms etc...
>How do you feel about character designs?
They are all good, specially that cutiepie guy with blue hair and a fishing rod
