stop this meme

this is probably what will happen
>people start bitching in mass "no fucking way i'll pay to battle online, i'll just stick to showdown SHOWDOWN SHOWDOWN SHOWDOWN SHOWDOWN"
and this word keeps being repeated until Nintendo hears it and hits it with a C&D

Good. If you don't put in the work or don't have the skill to breed properly you don't deserve to play I say

>>31365174
Fuck off verlisify

If this happens I give up on Pokémon till I can pirate/emulate it for the romhacks. Mainland Pokémon games aren't worth playing for the story and the battles are only good online or in romhacks. Paying 60 dollars a year is outrageous for one game for me since I don't care about any other online Nintendo game.

Ok I breed my mons, but it's all just tedium and RNG. It's not skill.

Things like battle strategies and team comp take skill

I didn't give a shit about having to pay online since I already do it for PSN, but holy shit, that's amazing

>>31365315
>kids that can't get mommy's credit card to pay for online won't play online

It's hilarious that you believe this. Why do you think XBL community had the worst reputation for years

>>31365473
>dad buys XBL because he wants to play CoD online
>kid gets to use it
What is dad going to buy a switch membership for, anon?

>>31365485
>parents buying their dipshit kids video games to shut them up
>actually playing video games

Again, hilarious you believe this

>>31365533
>no parents play vidya
>especially as more millenials become parents and vidya becomes more mainstream

Hilarious

>>31365642
Funny how you mentioned parents having no need for switch online and then turn around saying more and more millennials are being parents, the biggest group of pokemon fans outside of actual children

>>31365694
You're also implying Pokemon is going to be on the switch. Which doesn't seem to be the case. Switch was explicitly confirmed to be a home console. So in about a year and a half, they'll announce the new handheld.

>>31365694
>everyone posting is the same person

>>31365174
and Pokemon dies

>>31365127
So do you Pokemon will just die? STOP BEING A RETARD

>>31365120
>implying the rest of at least this gen won't be on 3ds
haha nice meme friendo

>>31365707
I really hope you're right desu. I don't want to buy a Switch.
