  7. Ok cool new things. Something crazy happens at the Pokemon league. Lusamine clearly has a slightly different roll in these games, Nanu is on MeleMele island for some reason!! I love the new dark themes they’re using for these games. I think I’ll be more happy with them than I initially thought lol

  14. So i have an idea….what if these wackos in the suits actually live in Ultra Space and they want to use Necrozma to siphon all the power from the Cosmic Duo and open up a ultra wormhole to engulf the whole region/world

  16. Wow, looks like I came at the right time. New trailer is the most hype thing about USUM yet, without a doubt. Looks a lot more story oriented, so hopefully the trailers don’t deceive like with SM.
    T-minus 1.5 months, won’t be long now.

  17. Ok
    Ok
    Ok
    So

    …

    I’m nervous about the amount of unskippable cutscenes

    I’m nervous they spoiled too much

    BUT

    I am glad that these games will be different enough from Sun and Moon

    ONLY TOOK 4 MONTHS

    • 1.a. They might be skip-able, who knows?
      b. It won’t matter if they’re good, and SM’s never really bothered me.
      2. First it’s too little then it’s too much, but I get what you’re saying.

      3. Yep, and feels pretty good.

          • Lol, it absolutely is. Yes, it has the aspect of catching and battling Pokemon, but they are most certainly story driven.

          • Go play the first 4 gens. No it isn’t

            The story does not drive the player

            What drives the player is the desire to battle and catch more Pokémon to beat the E4

          • Lol, I have played literally every game since they came out when I was 6 in 1998, cool it with the assumptions. There was ALWAYS a story that explained things. Gen 1&2 weren’t *as* story driven as 3 and beyond, but the drive has ALWAYS been stop the enemy team from doing (insert diabolical scheme) and the story behind why you;re doing it.

          • The enemy team is just context to the battles. Pokemon is a game about battling and catching creatures with a story tacked on

            Not a story with battling and catching creatures tacked on.

            When people replay Pokémon games they tend to skip all of the dialogue because they don’t care. They want to play a game not watch a movie or read a book. If they did, they would do those instead

          • Yea, and Tomb Raider is just a game about climbing mountains and finding treasures with a story tacked on, when people replay it, they skip dialogue because they don’t care. They just want to find treasures.

            Keep stretching, no matter what else is said, you will do so anyways.
            Have a good one.

          • It is though

            I don’t think you understand what you are even talking about. A game with a story in it isn’t a story driven game.

            You’re focusing on the story part of that and not the driven part

            Because what drives the player is what keeps them going and not just doing something else. If it is a game like Life is Strange or Heavy Rain or To The Moon, the reason the player is playing is to experience the story

            But in Zelda and Pokémon, there is a story there but the core gameplay is the reason they are playing. If you wanted an RPG with a story driving you, play final fantasy.

            Why play final fantasy over pokemon? Because it has a story. Why play pokemon? Because you can catch and train pokemon. That is why you’re playing. And you keep playing to make Pokémon stronger so you can defeat trainers.

            If people only cared about the story, why make new Pokémon or items or abilities or anything. Just make a new half baked story

        • Eh, I liked the cutscenes. To each their own.
          That’s a very fine line to hit in fairness. Who knows, maybe they showed this instead of new Pokemon or a cool new facilty? No way to say for sure just yet.

    • I guess they did show quite abit but I don’t think they’ve spoiled it all.
      You get the feeling that there is much more that they are hiding

  19. so it appears the new characters all have blue hair. I wonder why they chose to do that. Not a huge thing, but it’s just weird as their hair color isn’t exactly a natural one.

  21. I wonder what the blue and pink lights are flying over Hala. Maybe Lele and fini? Maybe the island guardians take on the UBs more in these games. Maybe they fight in their Z forms!!!!!!!!
