Why does gamefreak keep disapointing us?
>>33238577
>us
First of all
>us
Second of all, because we're not the target audience in the slightest.
Because you keep having expectations for them.
>>33238577
I'm reserving disappointment for when the game actually comes out, so I can be salty without a chance of getting BTFO'd
>>33238577
They're not, you're just an autistic man child.
>>33238589
And you're a dumb anime poster
Because pokemon like Lucario and Greninja make money.
Gamefreak doesn't care about making a balanced game, they care about making the next Lucario/Greninja who'll start a new wave of selling merchandise. Dusk form is their current attempt at that, but it's going worse than fucking Zoroark if I have to be the judge of anything, but that's why they had the backup new form for Mimikyu in the wings too.
They WANT a new shillmon every Generation, even if it means making the rest of the generation useless. That's the real reason Generation 7's standard Pokemon all have GOD AWFUL speed, in hopes that when Dusk Form and True Form Mimkiyu are revealed they can be "broken" just like Greninja was broken and become super popular.

Couldn't they have seen that making the starters compeitivly viable wouldve done the job just fine?

These anons have it all figured out.

The issue with starters is that they've got two shillmon starters already in Charizard and Greninja. They're saving the third grass one they're really going to shill for later. Having more than one starter of each type be a shillmon will only cause overlap and might reduce sales.
That's why Lycanroc was chosen, because they don't have a Rock type shillmon yet. Mimikyu was chosen because it's gimmick plays off the flagship shillmon Pikachu without hurting the sales of Pikachu merch

If you don't like it, leave. Faggot.

PFFFHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>33238707
›calls himself sazzale. calls someone else a faggot. the irony
>>33238707
Look I don't hate pokemon. I just dont like this direction they are taking it. Having 1 pokemon be the center of attention every gen is getting stupid. And it's so obvious its just to sell toys instead of having any other reason.

Lol ok Anon. Enjoy being a miserable Faggot.
>>33238736
They're marketing towards children. It's been this way since gen 1 with Pikachu and Charizard.
>>33238766
At least pikachu and charizard had appearances on game covers. They got popular without the need to shill.
Every fucking time.
>>33238616
Shillmons should be based on design, not power
>>33238736
Exactly, and just tossing away all the other Pokémon is just idiotic.
>>33238805
Soon gamefreak will focus on making the select special snowflake every gen. And dwindle down the amount of new pokemon.
>>33238836
No. That won't happen at all.
>>33239427
It's already been happening. With less pokemon every generation. And rehashed old ones being thrown in.
>>33238793
The thing is the way to make kids like Pokemon is for Pokemon to make them feel strong in the modern era.
Pikachu gets a new gimmick almost every generation to try and make kids feel like it's strong, while Charizard was given 2 Mega Evolutions to BE strong finally
>>33240524
All that Alolan Vulpix/Mimikyu/Rockruff merchandise being sold has nothing to do with power
>>33240762
Selling Merchandise at all =/= Being a shillmon
None of those 3 will ever win the BEST POKEMON EVER poll like Greninja or Arceus because they aren't strong enough.
>>33238577
Because you keep expecting something good from them after gen 5. Every oldfag here knows bw2 is the last good game.
>>33241920
NO
I'M A FUCKING BABY WHO HATED GEN 5! GEN 3 WAS BEST GEN! HOW DARE YOU INSULT A GEN THAT REMADE THE BEST GAME EVER AND THE GEN THAT CAME AFTER
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
