I actually really liked the difficulty of USUM, sometimes even random trainers would beat me. Sadly, all of the handholding and checkpoints held it back from being a more "mature" Pokémon game

Hopefully it means that we'll get following Pokémon with the Gen 8 games too.
Most likely.

I hope they do a few more things in the overworld as well. Whatever relevance the "well they'd have animate 800+ monsters" argument had certainly is weakened if they're even willing to do that for ideas (at the time) not even implemented.

Smh
Hold the phone.
1) Show Jolteon some respect, that dog aint a rat.
2) You can't even evolve the Eevee into Jolteon anyway.

theyre literally the same models with updated textures


They seem much more saturated at the very least, but the mouth is very light now
The lighter line work is an improvement, and it feels much more natural. Personally head over heels for the new look.

I wanna see the gym leader designs so bad. :<
Definitely a thing to be excited about. The protag designs make me optimistic they won't be too wild, while making reference to all the different iterations of the Kanto leaders, and I can even see design cues being taken from HGSS.

So will this new Pokémon be like 151.5 or 808? Maybe if its a legendary it will be Pokémon #0

That starter eevee doesn't evolve. And you can catch a normal eevee in either version.
Oh I know, but it doesn't seem like something gamefreak would do as the only new pokemon. It's almost certainly a mystic or legendary. I doubt we could 'guess' what it'll be easily. More fun to try and guess typing.

It would be pretty wild if we get a Mythical before Gen 8 even comes out. Has that ever happened before?

Closest I can think of is Munchlax being in XD, and Bonsly being playable in that same gen 3 game in a few side modes. This would be going further of course!

My best guess is that it's a mythical to promote gen 8 as a bridge of sorts. Alternatively, maybe its a new evolution of a popular Kanto Pokemon tk promote gen 8.

It would be Pokémon #808. Not really something that can be in question haha

We technically got Manaphy before Gen IV

However, this would be a Generation 7 Pokémon, not a Gen 8 one

If it's going to be a mythical, I'd at least like an interesting way to obtain it. I don't want a deliveryman, I want to catch it and name it please.

Hey this talk reminds me of something: I remember Pixelpar mentioning that the USUM Ultra Beasts were meant for a Switch game. Did he ever clarifiy if they were meant for Let's Go or Gen 8?

Hey man if we got another Ultra Beast out of this, I'm fukin game. Love those mofos, they're basically an excuse to make crazy ass Pokemon unrestrained by flavor. Like Celesteela almost feels like they made the movepool before the design, with it having crazy ass moves for its typing like Leech Seed and Flamethrower!

no

But that's not 100%, right? I've been wanting Missingno to be canon ever since it was the first Pokèmon I caught (I was playing a friend's copy, he showed me the catching tutorial & about HM's, then I thought this "Cinnabar Island" looked cool...).

UB Missingno would be the one thing that could redeem Let's Go for me.

Missingno was a glitch in the western versions of the game, not an easily accessible one in the Japanese ones. It doesn't have the same nostalgia as the west does for it.

Missingno will never be a real Pokémon. Come on now.

We got Sonic, Cloud, & Bayonetta in Smash, & it's looking like Ridley's next. Anything's possible if you're loud enough, & I intend to bring the noise.

Would Absolutely hype for MissingNo. Specially as the true #0 in the NatDex. Just put up some BS reasoning like "Mythical UB" and include him.

MissingNo as an ultra beat would be the coolest thing to happen in the series since figuring out getting Mew required just as convoluted a sequence of events as all the rumours were 5 years later.

My only thing is that if Missingno. where to become an Ultra Beast, I sorta don't want it to be a mythical one because I want to see it used in VGC and Battle Spot (assuming Gamefreak make it have good stats unlike its Gen 1 appearance rofl)

Sorry have been out of the loop for the last couple days so this may have been answered already, has there been actual confirmation that post gen 1 evolutions of gen 1 Pokemon are out?
