I'm 5 badges in and really enjoying it so far. Though the pre-game concerns that it would be easy are definitely true, yet to have a battle where I actually need to try. Really like a lot of the new pokemon.
Its not linear as most of, if not all, the previous games. They've added the ability to explore regions in a similar manner to some of your big RPGs. Of course, its not at the level of Final Fantasy's and whatever else, but its a change most wanted and really adds a much wanted extra element to the game.
What did they do?
Being toxic because they didn't get what they want. Bunch of idiots.
Is it previous regions like sinnoh, johto, kanto etc.? Or new ones?
I think its just the one new region - Galar.
Ha, I gathered that, but do you have the specifics? Like, what did they want that they didn't get, and what did they do because of it?
They wanted to be able to transfer all old Pokemon to the new games, which is fair, but then when Game Freak insisted that that isn't there vision for the series anymore they threw a tantrum, someone falsely accused Masuda (the producer) of rape, and then they had to cancel some events due to death threats, even Serebii got death threats and he runs a private site that have nothing to do with game freak.
Holy cow! I wasn't expecting it to go that far! I know some Pokémon fans can go a bit far (up there with Sonic fans), but to go that far was something I didn't expect.
To be fair, Game Freak said they had cut Pokémon to focus on the rest of the game and specifically that they needed to redo the models which turned out to be a barefaced lie.
But even with Zelda some of the games they’ve released since switch came out, they’ve made available for the 3DS as well
Nope. Unless there are other games not listed on here, they've been Switch only.
Yeah you’re right my bad for some reason I thought breath of the wild was also available on 3ds
Which game is this from?
Things like this aren't being shared because the fan base is angry about the dex cuts.
Does the storyline and open-world map make up for how easy battles are?
It's not open world, there's just one open area you can run around freely, kind od like the safari park.
The open area* really does, I probably spent half my time in there. I'd almost recommend it just for that. The den battles are really good and the higher level ones are surprisingly challenging if you're trying to play them on your own/with the AI. The story is kind of meh, picks up near the end but it kind of seemed like just going down a checklist rather than following a story. The final tournament is good though.
Working out IVs yourself or is the judge function available where you're at? Also, what is the frequency of bottle caps like? I got Ultra Sun a while after everyone else did so still playing that, but trying to get bottle caps is a pain. I've got a 6 IV ditto so I'm not too bad with breeding, but when it comes to breeding shinies the bottle cap means a 5 IV is fine.
I don't care, the game still so good.
Pokemon Sword and Shield.
Haha you should see the threads on ResetEra and the fighting between both sections of the fun, hilarious.
Working it out myself, well, with Serebii's calculator, think I've only seen the one bottle cap, but I've only just got to the point where I can take on 4 and 5 star Max Raids.
If you can get them from high raids that isn't too bad. Better frequency than relying on Poke Pelago and Festival Plaza, though I suppose it depends on the groups you get matched up with.Working it out myself, well, with Serebii's calculator, think I've only seen the one bottle cap, but I've only just got to the point where I can take on 4 and 5 star Max Raids.
I'd kill for a 6IV Ditto!
Ended up with a 2 IV Duraludon, but with the rest of them 25+, more than happy with that until I can get proper breeding tools and such.
Damn it looks good to me, didn't know they'd gone open world.
The wild area is very weak graphically, but the towns and routes are really good.
Just reached the postgame/battle tower, you can buy bottle caps for 25bp.
Think it makes Leaf Blade a 100% crit too...Thanks man, might have to look at getting a switch
.Which one, I've seen stuff like Gengar and Steelix roaming the wild area, and I believe all are catchable in Max Raids, at least.Ballonlea is one of my favourite Pokemon locations ever. It just looks so cool.
Not happy about finding out I need to trade one of my Pokemon to evolve it though. I don't want to pay for Nintendo Online
It's like £20 for a year and you get access to great snes and nes games. I'm not a fan of subscriptions at all, but it is good value.Ballonlea is one of my favourite Pokemon locations ever. It just looks so cool.

Can you even participate in raids without the subscription? I honestly think its worth it and Pokemon is a game that needs itBallonlea is one of my favourite Pokemon locations ever. It just looks so cool.
