    Spoilers Pokémon UNITE

    I mean, I honestly just don't think it's that big of a deal, anyway. This is a spin-off game in which species collection isn't the aim of the gameplay, and breeding doesn't exist. Maybe there's a gameplay reason behind it, but frankly, it could also just be fanservice, plain and simple. After...

    I mean, there could easily be a balance logic behind it Notice how in addition to having baby stages, none of those Pokémon can evolve, either? (Barring Pikachu generally, but it doesn't evolve into Raichu in UNITE anyway.) That can potentially add a strategic element. Some Pokémon on the...

    Pragmatically speaking, Snorlax, Lucario, and Mr. Mime are all far more iconic and recognizable than their baby stages. But then again, you could probably say the same about Greninja in relation to Froakie and Frogadier, so it probably is just because of the Baby thing. For whatever reason, I...

    There was also that Bellossom facestand in the tourist shops, plus the plant vases in the Hano Grand Resort that resembled Oddish (which an NPC explicitly mentioned). And Swirlix in the Thrifty Megamart, and Slurpuff as the mascot for the malasada joints - also commented on by an NPC in USUM...

    It can (though I will say that personally, every instance of review bombing I've ever encountered or heard of has been negative, which to me makes sense because people on the Internet love to shit on things and make sure that others know it), but that doesn't mean it always does. If the...

    I don't think that's anything new, I think that's a technical problem within YouTube. Even without factoring in bot auditing that could be registering some reaction input as spam, analytics can get buggy. Here's a similar issue report that somebody filed last year describing much the same...

    Spoilers Pokémon UNITE

    Before we get all conspiratorial, I don't think it's technically possible to remove a certain segment of dislikes from a YouTube video on a whim (I mean, if they really wanted to hide the controversy, they could just disable reactions altogether). I suspect the heavy influx of dislikes may just...

    It absolutely is, but at the same time, it's not as if anyone's hands were clean before now. Nintendo itself has been linked to child labor and slave labor in China before.

    It's fine. Interesting to see them trying out a new genre, and I think it being on the Switch as well as mobile will help widen the potential audience. This sort of game isn't really my thing, but Call of Duty: Mobile released last year from Tencent/TiMi and was the largest mobile game launch...
