I think they were slow because people were taking time with their decisions. A good matchmaking system or being able to play with friends should help there. However Nintendo or GF have never been excellent at online stuff. Let's see.Honestly of all the bad things I've seen in sw/sh, cutting off some pokemon is the one I find more reasonable. I know people are really disappointed but I was kinda expecting this soon or later...
I hope this translates to more exciting features in the games. But I'm also quite anxoius about the leak. While It feels good to have cross gen evolutions, It also looks like there's nothing there entirely new apart from another unseful mechanic...
In other words, I hope the wild area is not the only great feature they have to show. I need more things that make me look at these games as console games...(I've lost a good part of my hype about Raids cause they felt too slow in the threehouse and gyms now look just bigger to me and not a new way of thinking gyms battles as I was expecting since the first trailer).
I have to agree on the gym mechanics, that in the first trailer it leads people to speculate about more revolutionary mechanics.Honestly of all the bad things I've seen in sw/sh, cutting off some pokemon is the one I find more reasonable.

After seeing the gameplay, Max Raid Battles seem to me like the most boring and slow battle feature in any Pokémon game ever. Literally.I've lost a good part of my hype about Raids cause they felt too slow in the threehouse
They did fulfill a lot of wishes in the fandom, though. (An) open world (area), overworld Pokémon, random encounters also technically being overworld encounters, you just see an exclamation mark instead of the model, etc.I would never accept anybody but Game Freak creating the Pokémon creatures themselves. I just don't trust anybody but Game Freak to be able to create Pokémon that actually feel like Pokémon to me. So I wouldn't risk that aspect of the franchise being changed.
That said... I do think that Game Freak maybe should consider letting somebody else create the other aspects of their games (Region, Plot, features, side features, etc.) if they themselves don't feel like doing it anymore. Because I have to agree, they just do not feel as passionate about their games as they used to, imo.
I feel like Old Game Freak (Gen I to Gen V) used to create Pokémon games with the basic premise of "How do we make this game good?".
While Neo Game Freak's basic premise seems to have shifted to "How do we make this game surprising so people buy it?"
And I am honestly tired of them trying to surprise me. Because most of their surprises have been unpleasant for me personally. I would rather they give me what I want and expect, not something I don't want for the sake of surprise.
As long as the Pokémon remain Game Freak's exclusive responsibility, I think I could consider the possibility of someone else creating the bulk of the games.
I don't blame a kid for wanting ice cream for breakfast, I blame parents if they actually let their kid have ice cream for breakfast just because they cry loud enough for it.Its really funny seeing all those insults and backlash towards Gamefreak, while in reality, we cannot blame them, we can only blame ourselves, the fans, since we expect to see a Pokemon Game every year, so whats stopping the developers for half-assing the game if we are gonna buy it anyways.
If Mega Evolution and Z-Moves being replaced was a mistranslation, that pretty much confirms that every Pokemon capable of Mega Evolution will be in the games (Which is fine with me, since it means i can transfer over my trusting Shiny Glalie), same with Pokemon who have exclusive Z-Moves.
I see it as one of those things that can be fun if you actually do it together with others while talking to them - basically, the conversation while it being the main source of entertainment.After seeing the gameplay, Max Raid Battles seem to me like the most boring and slow battle feature in any Pokémon game ever.
I can't believe someone may actually enjoy it, but to each their own, of course.
Their goal is clearly to make us use Dynamax as much as possible, so I don't see why they'd go out of their way to include all those Pokemon in the Galar Pokedex (which they didn't do for all Megas in SM). The features might exist in the post-game, but I wouldn't expect much; Megas were banned in VGC 2017.If Mega Evolution and Z-Moves being replaced was a mistranslation, that pretty much confirms that every Pokemon capable of Mega Evolution will be in the games (Which is fine with me, since it means i can transfer over my trusting Shiny Glalie), same with Pokemon who have exclusive Z-Moves.
I wonder if lures from Lgpe would be coming back since overworld encounters are basically confirmed. I liked them.Oh by the way...since there was some confusion around It, the threehouse basically confirmed that random encounters are in the games only in the form of escamation point encounters. I know some people like random encounters but we can finally enter a cave without hating the zubat hordes. That's just to point out a good thing...
You know that's not gonna happen, right? These days when you are not sure you'll be in the dex I think a lot of pokemon would like to be part of the zubat/magikarp/pikachu lines. Those pokemon are always in the games, no matters what...I wonder if lures from Lgpe would be coming back since overworld encounters are basically confirmed. I liked them.
Also hope not to see Zubat in this game. Give us Woobat or something.
Edit: I see that Grookey learns Uproar. It's connection with music and sound seems even more likely now.
If that doesn't show a clear image of what the fans/fandom wants, I don't know what will.Apparently disappointed people are taking over the threehouse...

Other leaks confirm that it's indeed Team YellYamper is bae. Electric is my fav type and it's so derpy. I hope it evolves twice like Shinx, but I kinda see it just evolving once (into the greyhound imaged in the announcement trailer).
Kinda sad that this place got steamrolled by the transfer controversy, because I'd love to speculate on how that leak is 100% confirmed to be real and accurate now (barring certain typos or misunderstandings in descriptions). Is it really Team Yell, or is it something that sounds like Yell? (Like Pamper and Yamper) stuff like that.
Oh right! Forgot the separate leak that mentioned it. So we know there is a rival named Marnie that this Team is supporting for some reason. There has to be a sinister reason... Maybe she will end up being a pawn in the plot? Or maybe she is evil herself? Either way, it's likely she takes the starter strong to yours and is actually strong. Ugh that will be a breath of fresh air if so.Other leaks confirm that it's indeed Team Yell
Team Yell was described as "well-meaning fans of Marnie," so I at least expect Marnie to be a snobbish celebrity of some sortOh right! Forgot the separate leak that mentioned it.
