Honestly, the speeds for the animals doesn't even matter that much. The island is small enough in a lot of areas that stoutland and tauros cover a lot of land even if you aren't doing tauros's sanic mode. The only downside is eggs, and I just auto-hatch eggs using pokepelago and play something else anyway.

For what fucking purpose? I would've accepted having an ice boulder where you can catch Sandshrew and Ninetails at the very foot of the mountain, even if that is a bit late compared to the others, or a retcon Eevee to evolving with an Ice Stone. But no.

You don't even get an Eevium Z until postgame so it isn't like you can at least have a slightly upgraded Eevee to tide you over until then.

Pokémon Refresh.
Lets you interact with your Pokémon, but it gives them ridiculous buffs in-game if you do it too much, like surviving attacks that would've knocked them out, upping their critical hit rate and randomly curing them of status effects.

I like refresh, it reminds me of how everybody used to look at pokemon. If you grew up watching the show then you know pokemon are supposed to be your friends, seeing to power of friendship have a real effect in-game is special to me.

Have you played a single Pokemon game? The ingame obviously encourages singles, many many moves were designed with singles in mind, doubles moves didn't get added until the recent gens, there's like 8 double battles you can get into ingame, and most if not all of them are optional.

Pokemon since day 1 has been about 6v6 singles, but Gamefreak forced the 4v4 doubles meme starting from Gen 4 to make game times shorter. So then people started sucking doubles dick for some incomprehensible reason despite the fact that the foundation of the franchise is singles and doubles is literally only used because of company convenience.

The point was the GF doesn't understand what online play did to the post-game, so they think they still need to add hundreds of hours worth of hoops for training pokemon to use in battle tower x.0.

IV breeding has been an outdated process since genIII; all they do is continue to "streamline" it. Then people will guffaw about how "it's much better in this gen!", yet somehow ignore that being better than tremendous shit is still shitty.

Powersaves, my dude. Give yourself 10k rare candies and 1k gold caps and ignore GF's bullshit excuse for "gameplay", where they'd have you walking around hatching eggs for hours BEFORE you ever start to train a pokemon.

If it's any consolation, triple/rotation battles were originally in the game. Evidence can be found during that one Aether Foundation fight against three grunts.

Two of the grunts have Pokemon weak to Ground moves, and the third guy has a Porygon2 with Magnet Rise. Their dialogue suggested it was meant to be a triple battle, but because the the 3DS was being pushed to its max already, they had to recode it into a single battle for each.

You think you do, but you don't.

Legit, every single fight would just be gold mon after gold mon after gold mon. No matter how rare you make them, they will get hacked in and made fucking stupid. Shiny is already fucking stupid but at least Shiny's still look like Pokemon. Gold pokemon will look super dumb.

there's like one, maybe two totem fights that aren't a total joke

Fuck OFF, I dont care how high its BST or how good its ability is, i'm not using that piece of shit flying toilet ever.

GF honestly probably just totally forgets stuff. It's why some movesets are/were missing a move that makes sense thematically for such a long time/still are. Remember how long it took for Gyarados to get Crunch? Or how Mareep's line doesn't get Tail Glow?

They're just utterly incompetent. The same person that decided to have fucking version exclusive COLOR CLOTHING is probably the same guy that decided to lock off hard/easy mode in BW2.

Z moves and Megas are supposed to make kids beat endgame content with shit like Beedrill. Not to make Beedrill viable competitively among manchildren, especially if they are using their own house rules that they can change on their whim, like smogon does.
>>
>>30630780
Well, at least they added some sidequests that requires you to have some pokemons registered in the pokedex. This is a step in the right direction.

They should make it a permanent form, not a shit gimmick
>>
>>30631551
More forms or not, just make Complete forme permanent want to pet it in refresh.

due to it being a ability gimmick, it lacks a solid ability because it got one only to transform in-battle after taking over 50% damage, it's fucking stupid.

The Complete forme will never be entirely Complete rip

God I wish they would bring back roaming ones or static ones that you could just find on a whim. Like I get its cool to have a story around them, but there's nothing like just randomly running into one while exploring post game
>>
>>30637452
Dhelmise is found by fishing in one single spot in the game, with a higher chance to get either items or a Magikarp to show up.

That's fucking proper gamedesign, ain't it?
>>
>>30642500
Oh yeah thanks for reminding me. The "haha Magikarp is everywhere!" meme isn't funny anymore and it just drowns out actual variety. It wouldnt even be so bad if you had the ability to upgrade the rod to get less magikarp.

which pokémon?

>>30637080
UBs are sitting at 570 BST each.

>>30642877
Bounsweet. Probably a few others, but this one really stuck out. It doesn't help that it's in a trial area, where the dex refuses to show any real info for other than "somewhere here"

>>30642549
What was the point of making so many Alolan Pokemon have abysmal encounter rates?
>>
>>30643578
Because anon, you really need to see Zubat/Rattata/Wingull's line literally everywhere. Surprised they dont throw Durant everywhere
>>
>>30643506
Bounsweet only shows up on the western side of Lush Forest, but it does have a 40% appearance rate there, so it's not hard to find even by accident. Fortunately it's not like every other Pokemon in the game, that only have a 5% spawn rate on one route unless they're a fucking Yungoos, Rattata, or Wingull.

>AI consecutively manages tobuse protect

Battle royale fucking sucks man
>>
>>30643578
Because getting excited to see what new Pokemon you can find on each route isn't how it was done back in Gen I. You have to make the player want to do everything in their power to avoid any wild Pokemon if you really want to pander to nostalgia.

Seriously, I'm not as down on these games as a lot of people seem to be, but if Gen VI did anything right, it was the distribution and variety of wild Pokemon in each area, and seeing them go back to Johto-tier distribution is a huge disappointment.

so you can use stuff like focus sash/endeavor level 1 smeargle and other low-level cheese mons

>>30640897
Z moves are better than gems were, aside from Acrobatics and Unburden combos.
Only thing you could note as a downside is that Z-moves activate when targeting a Protecting mon. But they chip through in exchange.
>>
>>30643849
Protect and its variants should be banned
