They made Alolan Persian and Ratticate because of fan feedback.

Gamefreak has stated in interviews that they intentionally don't listen to fan feedback.

Is that why trainer customization returned in SM after being absent from ORAS? Is that why HMs, which everyone complained about, were finally removed in the same game?

>>33162897
maybe but I doubt it; the HM thing has been a long time coming

>>33162855
That was in relation to the difficulty of the main story playtroughs and the hand holding. His reason was that since people have more frantic lives nowadays they don't want to make the games hard. So you can just relax and play for 17 mins ot whatever and make progress.

it's still bullshit though. Dumbest reason ever

Dragonite with colors matching it's previous forms is one I see a fair amount and do agree with, but that's just the looks. Doesn't really change much. Kind of wish Pokemon would do what robopon did and just let us change the color of mons, but then that would ruin the shiny thing.

As for actual changes to a mon. Gyarados should have become a Water/Dragon in Gen II. There was no reason NOT to change it's type at that point. It's lore goes on about the legends of the karp becoming a dragon if it jumps threw a gate, and the Pokedex entries that say Magikarp has Dragon DNA. Even when they finally had to chance to change it with Mega Gyarados. Game Freak fucks up which seemed to be the theme of Gen VI and bled out to Gen VII

I always thought Pokemon could do with every poke getting several colour schemes of varying rarity, partialy based on where you find them and paired with slight stat boosts, with shiny mons being the rarest of all.

Fuck you Anon, now I want cookies.

>>33162897
if they listened to fan feedback it wouldn't have taken them 20 years to ditch HMs anon. think what you are saying before posting.

>>33162897
Trainer Customization was only gone in ORAS because ORAS had established protagonists. They didn't bring it back for SM because of the fan feedback, it was always meant to stay. Just watch it be in Gen 8's games, be removed in DPPt remakes, and then come back in Gen 9 again.

>>33166354
this pretty much... I still have no idea why the fug people expected customization to exist in a remake with established protagonists

>>33166262
>slight stat boosts
It sounds fine in theory, but that would kill anyone wanting to play competitively legitimately. Literally everyone would inject.

>>33166263
>ghostrock spiritomb
Spiritomb is based on the sins that are enchanted and sealed into a rock. It comes from buddhist or other asian religion.
Thus, the rock is only a containet, Dark typing (in jap. "Evil Type") comes from the fact that Spiritomb is literally evil things, sins. The Rock typing would be Spiritomb's "third" type, but the rock isn't the core of the idea for this pokemon.

>>33162563
Obviously bug type Flygon

>>33162855
There are also interviews that say they do, your point?
