ITT: It's 2016 and Pokemon Red and Blue are the newest games in the series. Post your reaction to the new designs.
These designs are fantastic. I'm glad they're making them look more like believable creatures instead of simplified cartoons to sell toys.
I can accept Sandcastles or a candle, but THIS IS JUST A POKEBELL WITH TWO EYES
>>30860669
Kantonian Muk looks fucking awful. It's literally just a pile of sludge. Is Nintendo running out of ideas?
>>30861345
Literally shiny A-Muk without cool stripes and jewels. Wtf
>>30860669
anon, have you ever heard about mimics?
What the fuck is up with the porygon line?
>it's a fucking rock with arms
What the fuck GF
This and Magneton, what the hell
Literally just jamming pokemon together and calling it an evolution
>exeggutor gets a pre-evo
>it's a pile of fucking eggs
What the fuck? I thought exeggutor was a palm tree
>All the starters are reptiles and two of them are basically turtles
>two of the legendaries are basically aborted fetus's
>poison type slime pokemon evolves into a bigger pile of slime
>mc is a mute autist
>half these pokemon are literally just normal animals
literally most unimaginative gen yet.
>>30861435
no fucking clue. why does this exist?
>>30861562
Magneton especially doesn't make any sense since it was introduced as a pre-evolution to Magnezone.
>Literally a blob with a smiley face
BRAVO GAMEFREAK
>>30861721
Because the other porygons just HAD to have a baby form in this day and age.
THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE GENDERS. WHY DO THEY NEED A BABY FORM?
>>30861721
At least the "2" makes sense now.
Besides, Porygon 2 is too OP in LC.
>>30861345
It's not even oil spill inspired. Bullshit.
guys the charmander evo leaked
ITS NOT A GOD DAMN FIRE FIGHT
fire/dragon here we go
>>30860584
Genwunners need to stop bitching about the new designs. Yes, there's shit like Voltorb and Electrode, and Kanto Exeggutor is disappointing compared to the original, but there are also amazing designs like Alakazam, Gengar, Gyarados, Victreebel, Snorlax, and Mr. Mime.
I heard they finally gave Munchlax an evolution, is that true?
>>30862016
>Mr. Mime
kek
There's way too many Pokemon related to old ones. Evolutions, prevolutions, mid-evos, seriously?
>>30862027
apparently. hopefully this even fatter piece of shit will finally make Munchlax viable
>>30861393
A-muk? what does the A mean?
>>30862156
This is the "B"-muk i think
Guys, do we know how to get Mew yet? I've been looking for a while.
>>30862191you have to use strength on the truck near the SS Anne.
>>30861954
>next gen shit btfo Ash in the league yet again
>>30862191
>cute little blob of a legendary
event only, mark my words
>>30862180clever
>>30862229
alright i'll try
>>30862234
fuck off cunt it's under the truck
150+ new pokemon is great
this means theres a much higher chance of there being more than 20 good designs. A lot more than kalos and alola.
Judging by the leaks this is the most good designs since unova.
>>30862066
>Make an evolution to the Gen1 piece of shit that is Pichu finally in SM
>NEXT FUCKING GAME introduce the same exact pokemon, but with a different ability, less types, shittier movepool, and with a middle form as well
What a waste of space. They couldn't even bother giving it an interesting name, they just added 'ka' in the middle. Worst pokemon of this generation, hands down.
Fuck midforms.
>>30860669
that's the fucking point you troglodyte
a pokeball is a horrifying piece of technology - it can capture and store living creatures, converting them to data
that's fucking terrifying
voltorb/electrode are examples of this technology gone rogue - and that's a question that the series needed to answer
if you can't wrap your feeble mind around symbolism, if you can't comprehend that power can come in plain forms, and if you just want shiny overdesigned digimon with guns...
get out
fuck you faggot, voltorb is great
>Gamefreak gets rid of color
>Makes a racist Pokemon
>Literally Nicki Minaj
What the actual fuck. Remember when Pokemon first release on the Gameboy as Sun and Moon and everyone thought it was amazing because it even surpassed console graphics? What happened?
>>30862016
>amazing designs
>Mr. Mime
I can't breathe- send help.
>>30862191
Under the truck.
>>30860584
probably the best design ever - a pokeball gone awry
but kids these days are too autistic and need unnecessary features and gimmicks
voltorb pokemon best pokemon
boy, i suuuuuure am glad we got a Woobat rip off.
>>30862333
>responding seriously
>4chan
gr8 b8 m8
>>30862395
It's better than Woobat, and it finally gives crobat a pre-evo.
>>30860584
its a pre-evolution to magearna. screencap this.
>>30862027
I heard they gave Magnezone prevos yet there's no way to get them to evolve into Magnezone. What was the point in that?
>>30861839
>blob
>breeds with everything
>fuck your egg groups
>Gamefreak literally just put a face on jizz and called it a Pokemon
>everyone fucking loves it
Kantoddlers truly are the worst generation of players.
>>30861688
Holy shit, all of the starters' facial features are literally copy pasted onto eachother.
>>30862493
>make laziest design ever
>they realize everyone will hate it
>b-but it can turn into any pokemon ever and breed with anything so you have to like it!
Seriously, fuck gamefreak.
>>30862493I know this is a bait thread, so I am putting a somewhat serious reply in spoilers (no, I am not legitimately responding to your bait, but you did get a (YOU)). Seriously, though- imagine how painful breeding would be after all these years if they never had anything like ditto. Good lord- and people think it's autistically hard to get stuff breeding with a 6IV japanese ditto with destiny knot- imagine if that weren't a thing...
Why the fuck did they combine special attack and special defense? WTF
Also why the hell does the type of moves now determine whether they're physical or special?
Why is everything 2D?? Why is everything ugly as shit??
WHY DO I HAVE TO SAVE EVERYTIME I WANT TO SWITCH PC BOXES? BULLSHIT
>>30862493
They got rid of breeding, dumbshit. Welcome to Kanto.
>>30860604
>When old gen. no neck Pikachu is more cute than new gen. Pikachu
I'm actually starting to like Pikachu.
>>30862047
>>30862377
Man, fuck you guys. Mr. Mime isn't a typical "cool" design, but I can't help but love how fucking goofy it looks. I for one am looking forward to Mr. Meme's glorious rule.
>>30862498
>tfw you never noticed this shit before.
Squirtle and Charmander have the same eyes. But I like Squirtle's color a lot more. Bulbasaur has slightly wider eyes.
>finch becomes eagle
>sparrow hawk becomes stork
Good one, Gamefreak
>>30862592
>Welcome to Kanto
Shit. That explains the region name.
>I like breeding
You can't.
>Oh.
>I like playing in a 3D environment.
You can't.
>Oh.
>I like trading online.
You can't.
>Oh.
>>30862560
Gamefreak has always been a mystery. Remember when they introduced the Reaper cloth in gen 1 and said it was loved by a certain Pokemon? It was around for 4 generations and was mysteriously removed, and to this day it had no function.
New leaked image. Is this a lazy excuse for a ghost type? It looks like they saw a ghost cutout at the store on Halloween and thought "fuck it, here's a new Pokemon"
Fuck off GF.
>>30862592
Then how do I get the other starters?
>>30862333
TRIPS HAS SPOKEN
VOLTORB IS KEK
>game graphics have progressively gotten worse
>>30862770
Some new link trade gimmick. They took the wi-fi away so that the players could socialize to get more mons.
Fucking ridiculous
>>30862406
you'll need quads to beat that trip-lord
purchase 4chan gold today or forever be fail
I sincerely believe the game mechanics were not the point of the thread
>>30862813
But all of my friends are going to evolve their starter before they're willing to trade with me!
>No more shinies or balls other than basic-great-ultra-master ball
WTF my autism will not be pleased
>>30862856
What else is there to talk about then? How much better/worse certain pokemon look like? That would've been an extremely boring and short thread
>>30862915
>inb4 everyone arguing with that one faggot who thinks Mr Mime is cool
>>30862980
Absolutely no point to using any psychic in gen 1 than Mewtwo, starmie and Alakazam.
>>30863024
>No dark types
GF fucking loves those psychic mons
Why can't my pokemon hold items anymore? Where did their abilities go?
>>30863050
Gamefreak got tired of the autists on this board who only care about competitive. Breeding is gone too.
>>30863049
That's not even the worse!
>Pre-special split so psychic mon's special attack and spD are one stat so they can full invest in special and speed
>Only weakness is ghost and bug
>Only damaging bug move in gen 1 is twineedle which belong to beedrill (Half poison) and does 20 damage
>Only damaging ghost move is LICK which does 20 damage and is on gengar's line (Part poison as well!)
>>30863105
>Plays pokemon because story
>>30862560
The removed SO MANY of the greatest features from the series in this entry. Fuck this, I'm not giving GF a single cent of my money from now on.
>>30863127
Ghost actually didn't affect psychic in gen 1, not like it mattered as the only ghost line was part poison so you were a madman for sending it out against a psychic.
>>30863253
I think you mean gen 7 and that's how it is right now, stop speaking in past tense.
>>30863127
Can we expect competitive to be nothing but this now? GG Gamefreak.
>>30862441
Breaking the facade, this is something that will never happen: a crossgen legendary prevo
>>30862441
Tbh when I first saw magearna I thought it could've worked out to be a mutated kling line evo because of the gears (ala diancie to carbink)
A retro, bare-naked stripped down Firered/LeafGreen remake. Wtf were they thinking? At least Diaper Beam is now usable.
>>30860584
Why do all the new pokemon have such shitty stats? Even the new dragon is bad. Out of everything, it looks like this "Grangar" pokemon is going to be one of the best. I hope it gets levitate.
>>30863453
>>30863559
>gen 1 gengar
>no stab ghost moves except for lick (night shade does set damage)
>only good against ghost (gengar)
Waiting for the best dragon
>make pre-evo
>give it the same BST
For what purpose
>>30863744
>be bug type
>no bug damaging moves for stab
Guys where is Lillie?
>>30863992
Under the truck
>>30864413
What ISN'T under the truck?
>>30864560
my dick cause its in ur mom
>>30864560
the truck
>All of these new Pokemon that look like they could evolve into things from Gens 4 and 6
>Most of the Kanto forms either lose one of their typings or it gets replaced with something else for no reason (Why is Vulpix a Fire type?)
>Magneton isn't Steel type despite being a fucking magnet
>Pokedex leak confirmed that Game Freak removed the Dark and Steel types
>Amnesia is now just a bullshit version of Calm Mind that Mewtwo and Slowbro can learn
>Fighting types are fucked now because Psychic is unstoppable
>Bulky Normal types don't have to worry about dealing with Fighting types
>The metagame is just about bringing your Psychics and Normals
>Casualized gym leaders and trainers
>No post-game
>They kept Gen 6's PC system
>Literally just a prequel of Gen 6
>This game is so rushed that the devs confirmed they added in Mew at the last minute
I didn't even want to pirate this game. It's just a complete fucking mess that's trying to pander to the genwunners, the GS & Crystal apologists, and normalfags that only played Pokemon Go.
>>30860584
>reverts back to GSC graphics for no reason
For what fucking purpose? Is it just johtoddler pandering?
What even is this meme? Is this meant to be ironic? Do people not understand how chronological bias works?
>>30866890
Do you have autism? It's a joke at the expense of geewunners
>>30866916
So it's bandwagoners, okay. Thanks for confirming your tism for me.
>>30866951
You don't know the definition of bandwagoning
>kantonnian exeggutor
JUST
>>30866951
>bandwagoners
You're just using words you've seen on 4chan before, aren't you?
>>30861413
Yeah but mimics aren't just the fucking object they're mimicking. It doesn't even have a creature inside of it, it is a ball with eyes.
>>30867034
>>30867050
I noticed your (You)s didn't actually address my main point. Care to try again?
Bashing on gen 1 has been a thing since gen 1 whib was 20 years ago
>>30867071
probably it's a rotom form. they made it into a pokedex already, why not a pokeball?
inb4 shiney form of this is an ultraball
Literally my mom's eggs
>>30867192
your mom needs to take those back to the store then
>>30867179
But then it would be a form we know this is a legitimate mon with an evolution.
>>30867208
how do you evolve a pokeball? (serious question, havent seen pic )
Finally getting that team rocket pre-story!
>>30867279
>>30867208
nevermind, looked it up.
they flipped it upside down. the actual fuck
>>30866890
>>30866951
Why do you think it has to be anything more than just people joking around?
>Clearly gendered forms
>Confirmed that they're all monogendered
>The first evos are literally the same name with either male or female at the end
>Two entirely separate lines
As if it wasn't bad enough that they made milf-bait Nidoqueen...
>>30860584
>Champion Blue
WTF where is my Champion Lillie this Kanto remake sucks
>>30862556
this is the most autistic thing I've ever read on 4chan
It's literally a fucking fursona ripoff of Genesect. To add insult to injury the typing and ability aren't even interesting despite its power level being through the roof.
>Pidgeotto
>Pidgeot
>Mega Pidgey
Literally the exact same design used three times, game freak is out of ideas. And it's a bland as fuck design too.
>>30867192
why does exeggcute look so mean?
>literally no post-game
what the FUCK
>switching from 3d graphics to 8bit minimalism
>removing pokemon refresh
t-thanks
Remember when we thought mine jr would get an evolution because it had the word jr in its fucking name? ARE YOU HAPPY NOW? Look at what you've done to my previous pokemon.
*precious, not previous you stupid phone.
>can finally catch a fucking Tauros
GEE
WHY WOULD YOU MAKE IT A RIDE BEFORE BEING CATCHABLE
FUCKING TEASES
>look up Tauros movepool
Ok Gamefreak, what the literal fuck.Also I've heard that moonstones are finally useful, is it true?
>>30860584
wow they just copied everything from gen 5 and gave them angry 90s anime eyes haha
>>30860584
They dropped the ball on fire starters, but the new grass starter is the best one yet. Strange that the legendaries are just kinda there with little connection to the plot. I mean, that little backstory dungeon for Mewtwo before the 7th gym was really neat, but I want to know more about Zapdos. Still, it's pretty cool going back to that desolate postgame from Gold and Silver and seeing what it was like when it was more active.
