I really like these numbers! Tho i'd personally reduce the numbers of Ultra Beasts to 3. I dont want them gone since i really have grown to like them, but at the same time i dont want them to be a focus of the storyline again. Idk.
>Only 12 new megas
Sinnoh really doesn't have that many. Just 9 not counting mythicals. Alola has a whopping 22 not counting mythicals.
I guess because of their story prominence and how easy it is to find them, most people don't see ultra beasts as legendaries
Didn't Pokeshopper teased something like that on the merch for the movie?
Ultra Beasts were very tightly woven into the story, unlike mega evos or regional forms. I doubt they're coming back. and I'd be ok with that
Yes, it was in X and Y
I want a ghost-type Eevee so bad. Also poison. You'd think they'd give us some of the remaining types since Eevee is only growing in popularity.
Ultra Beasts are Legendary in the game code
Q:We noticed ORAS had a lower difficulty level compared to previous Pokemon games. What bought you to this decision? Any chance that future games will have the possibility to adjust difficulty level as seen in Black and White 2?
Well they did increase the difficulty in Gen 7. Now we're waiting for the PWT (because the battle frontier is meh) to return.
Tbh I wouldn't give that much weight to the interview for Pokémon Millenium that was held in 2014, especially after the Game Informer interview of 2017
Yep. People keep trotting that now 4 and a bit year old interview out and ignore that the last traditional main series game had increased difficulty
I didnt play usum, so cant coment there, but sun/moon was a cake walk to play though.
They also released Let's Go, which in my opinion allowed them introduce all easy features into one game and free the rest of the mainline games from such features.
we can hope. the onlything I want from lgpe is pokemon in the overworld the whole candy system is bad imo.
In USUM, the Totem Pokémon were a lot harder and the story climaxed with a boss 10 levels higher than the previous Pokémon you battled, with all stats boosted and moves to cover every single weakness. Unless you planned ahead, you would likely wipe out the first time you battle it.
And Exp Share makes things "easier" than prior games due to lack of grinding required
Of course they are left behind. They were just a group of Pokémon, not a special mechanic. That's like saying every generation should add legendary beasts or legendary birds.
Yea, he's not interested in making a true to form pokemon rpg anymore.
I can see the frustration. I see it everywhere now.
Because to do it they had to compromise the first region it, making it the smallest and shortest region, and then the second region was empty and unstructured.
It's not even Pokemon Go. Masuda doesn't specify what game, just that he thinks people rather play on smartphones ("and other games"*) so that was why there was little content. He said this for LG and for ORAS. Instead of thinking "what can we do to make people want to play our game over others", he thinks "the shorter our games are, the sooner people will play other games. So considerate!". It's just poor business logic all around
Even then though I didn't see very many complaints. I mean, I could be wrong and misremembering, I'll admit that. And I am biased. But I'd love to see an honest go at doing it right.
When you look at how the Japanese gaming industry has shifted in 10 years, I can absolutely see why he may think that. Mobile gaming has severely impacted the core gaming industry. Practically every game series saw a huge loss in sales, average sales were down and so forth.
Nostalgia is a heck of a thing, that's why there weren't that many. Going back at it with an objective eye before HGSS really highlighted the flaws it had to me :/
