They seriously need to reconsider about what stuff they do what marketing, because whatever TPC/Gamefreak has done for Sw/Sh was simply ... not good. "Show everything" for Sun/Moon wasn't good either.

They have to find a balance.

At this point I don't know if they have nothing to show or if they actually believe they are withholding important information

Game's a month out and we've seen like 20 new Pokemon? I'm baffled.

Wait.

"Note: You'll be able to receive the special Pikachu or Eevee at the Wild Area Station in the game. (You can reach this area after about two hours of gameplay, though individual gameplay time may vary.)
"Note: The special Pikachu and Eevee cannot evolve. "

Whhhyyyyy

Videos won't work for me and I can't find them on YouTube. Oh well I hate dynamax and gigantomax and won't use them anyways. Was hoping for new Pokemon, you know the whole point of playing Pokemon. Hell, I'd settle for new old Pokemon being confirmed being back over this dripfeed we're getting.

Also I didn't play lgpe because it's not what I want out of a Pokemon game, and this exclusive bs isn't gonna change my mind.

So I have to find a Let's Go Pikachu to get the fat Pikachu. 😕 lame. They should give us both for having either Let's Go save data

I get not revealing everything, but just revealing these and Ponyta is wack. Was expecting something more substantial, and at least one last new gameplay feature.

i really don't know why they are holding this much stuff back at this point, the game could really use a nice info dump for one final push for release

doesn't help it's just all Gen 1 again including Charizard getting even more extra treatment

Wow more gen 1 pandering. At least charizard and butterfree look alright. 1 month out and this is what we get.

Oh god, Butterfree's G-Form is the Mothra picture from that one image collection rumor/leak, isn't it? That would be so disappointing ...

Like I said in the other thread, even if these hadn't leaked, that was a really underwhelming trailer.

I'm honestly just fine if they want to keep new Pokémon close to the chest so there is a lot to discover post-launch, but the fact more of these trailers aren't dedicated to new features or quest design is making me pessimistic about the breadth of content I can expect.

So like where are the the new Pokémon? New Galarian forms? Cities? Characters? Story?

Pokémon Company's marketing cycle this time around is the least interesting and hype inducing cycle for a Gen ever.

Great, exclusivity windows and offers for new Pokemon forms, just what we all wanted

If they reveal too much, it's bad marketing.

If they reveal too little, it's bad marketing.

Oof.

Nah, that's never been the case. It's always been what they revealed. People don't necessarily want to see all the new pokemon, just some of them and starter evos. And outside of that just all the new features and the region. Now it seems like they're barely revealing anything and what they do is seemingly random

Lmao just the stupid gigantomax stuff and it's all Kanto mons

Two of them require having played another game

One of them you have to waste your dynamax on in battles if you want to have any use for it

I expected nothing and they still managed to disappoint
