No, fighting other trainers i find be the most excising part, since the whole game and thematic is build around it. Training, choosing your team, tactics, etc. But those 6vs1 battles are the worst ... i wish, the game would center about grinding against other trainers and not just running in circles and beating up wild Pokemons.
The thing is, they could easily have had the Let's Go encounter system and the GO style capture system while keeping wild battling. There's no logic in removing it. It is pointless and replaces one "grind" for another.
Battling wild Pokémon is a big part. It teaches the battle system, shows integration into the concept.
You don't need to grind in Yellow. Having Pokemon actually on screen makes the whole experience more streamlined. Can't believe people still defend this.
People don't like an already simple game getting simpler. Shocking.
Why sadly? People don't have to be happy with every change because it's a change, you know.
The irony of banning you for "misrepresenting moderation" while proving your point at the same time is delicious. If only someone could comprehend that criticizing a game isn't the same as attacking its developer...
And this wouldn't work with Trainer Battles because .... ? Also the battle system isn't about getting HP low enough to throw balls against them, it's just about betting them up. You actually don't want to use the system effectively in this scenario.
Maybe making catching Pokemon more interesting, personal and faster.
The heart of the game is ignoring one of the first mechanics you ever learn.
We haven't had trainer and gym leader rematches since Gen 4 and XY Battle Chateau and ORAS Trainers eye in Gen 6. The best we'll likely have is a restaurant.
I give it 3 routes before you're sick of it.
Why is this always the go to deflection used? There's some people out there who just like going through the main journey without ever touching online who could think this game is a step back
Obviously they didnt show Brocks match because he has a team that changes depending on your team and you can fight him infinite times... :sweat:
You don't need to grind in any game.
Na, they're making it like the anime so it'll be a double battle with your Pikachu VS his Onix and the Sprinkler system, clearly. That's the only change :P
"It appeals to me, so your argument is moot".
I mean you don't have to do that, but it makes it easier like using a berry.
Yes, they said it's the only way to get Mew
I can see, that catching Pokemon by batteling them is a very elegant solutions, since you use the same mechanic for all parts of the game. Introducing new mechanics can make the game too unfocused. But i feel, if you don't make it too complicated, you can have people focus and move faster of the actually tactical and meaty part of the game: the fights against other trainers.
What? You don't think they'll have something to replace EVs?
They mentioned that the only way to get Mew is through the pokeball. You can't even transfer over the one from Go,
They said its the original 151 + 1 new one only(which is most likely a gen 8 mythical). Other gens are SOL
Please fucking stop conflating wild battles with random encounters, context isn't a hard thing to grasp.
Hey, I love the Pokémon being out on the field. It's a nice compromise and modernisation of wild encounters, though I think the Pokémon may be more adversarial than people think. They're clearly going to run at you.
Then go and catch stuff. What's the difference?
What issues? You think people can't learn how to battle from random trainers you meet? It's not rocket science.
I didn't say, that i find he Pokemon GO mechanic to be the best solution. The discussion was about battling one Pokemon to catch them, grind for Exp or pace out the game is all not very interesting.
