I would think its fake since we should be expecting character creation ?

But those design are too good I wish they are real honestly .

Isn't May the only female protagonist with 3 designs? I don't think any of the others have more than 1-2.

Even with character creation they give you a base to work off of...now i want to see these designs in the different skin tones. But i guess if we are Blue's kids then we wouldnt have that?

yep. emerald used to be my favorite but oras is too good. it'd be nice to see all the designs in both gens' styles though.

what i love about emerald now is you can see the turning point in art style from ruby/sapphire to emerald. protag designs and illustrations suddenly became more gestural and dynamic.

You can see it in FR/LG as well.

New May looks super nice, way better than the older ones. Just a really striking design.

What if Game Freak made the Switch Pokemon sort of a prequel and introduced prehistoric Pokémon and have "original" new Pokémons where all the newer ones are evolved from those? -hence why we're hearing rumors about having fewer Pokémons than usual?-

I mean we have a proof in Omanyte and Aerodactyl and such where a prehistoric story exist.

Would love a Pokémon: Primal edition of some sort

Ugh the ORAS art style looked so bad. Wasn't a fan of how bug-eyed the characters were. Definitely a fan of the older Gen III designs.

Possible hot take: Gen III-Gen V was peak art style before it went downhill (though XY didn't look too bad, MC could have been better though. Too much blue).

To be honest I felt like Gen VI protagonist designs were equally as good. You put them side by side with the BW designs and they feel extremely similar.

It makes sense, Sugimori did them both.

When you put it like that, you're right. Not a lot separates the BW protags from XY protags.

It's just the male MC's attire looks so bland, compared to Hilbert having separate colours. FeMC looks so much better than Hilda though.

Well thanks, I obviously know that, but I was hoping to go for a sublte polysemic pun with "Let's go" (title of upcoming games & sens of adventure) / "Let us go" (free us from this never ending wait).

Anyway, not that funny I guess if I have to explain it...
I very much picked up on the joke, I guess it broke immersion for me though

Can I say, that I really wants this leak to be true because of the possible direction the Adventures Manga can take, and also for finally confirming the Yellow x Red ship.

Nuh-uh. No. Oh hell no. ORAS was the peak of personality in official art.

You can't tell me this:

doesn't have more character to it than any other era in Pokemon history. I'd argue that only the stoicness and ferocity of gen 1 art (and I mean 1996 gen 1) stand up in delivery, but even that doesn't come close.

These just came in. Look creative enough to be real!
Put me in team real. Silly outfits with similar color schemes, the badges as a callback to the gen 1 designs, a fat bracelet for god knows what gimmick, both have a G shaped pokeball, the Japanese is 100% correct and is sloppy handwriting instead of typed up or using a font that looks sloppy, etc. Blue's kids as the protag with Red's kid as the rival is some wild shit, I ak down with it. As always, now anything else will be a disappointment.

No wait it might be fake, the bags are just the FRLG bags repurposed.

well it also had by far the best unique pikachu costumes/versions, which should be alt costumes in smash at least

Nah, I wouldn't worry about it. The 'Go'-related accessory is not required to play the game. Based on what I've heard, it's optional and sold separately.



As far as I know, nothing has changed.

Also, I hope everyone here has a nice weekend.

Monday, then? Let's fucking go.

There were a few rumors that have discussed Pikachu and Eevee evolutions. IDK if I believe the leak, but the art looks spot on.
