Pokemon Sword/Shield - Before You Buy 

Except now it finally came to the forefront.

sun and moon is great tho

BarzCaremelly eh

@@HadirUntukAnda That's your opinion, and you're entitled to it, and I'm glad you can have an opinion. However most people would disagree with you on that.

Some Dude not sub and moon, that was very innovative factually speaking. The only negative being the constant cutscenes, but it’s consider to be the second best story next to gen 5 so who cares. But year USUM, let’s go, and these new ones are MASSIVLELY disappointing

It’s the voice acting he was hoping for

It was only a hop skip and a jump away from being weird.

Omg lol.

Haha, that's awesome.

Ya

That would be awesome you could fly open world on pidgeys and charizards (and more) climb up huge snowy mountains to get ice type legendaries.

J. Chang omg link pls

That’s what this game was supposed to be...

don't wanna sound negative, but hell will freeze-over before that happens

@Pancake it is tho lol

Can confirm i would

Only been waiting for a complete open world Pokémon game with great graphics for the last 20years.... lol Ever since the shows and early games, I always wanted full freedom to dictate how I wanted my Pokémon journey to go. Add in online “tournaments” (based on level/rank) and it be amazing. I’d buy any new system for that

Confused how people think BoTW is some mind blowing experience and a breathtaking world. Compared to other AAA open-world sandbox games, it's emptier than The Glowing Sea on Fallout 4. I enjoyed the game, but I do not understand how it is some new standard when it literally does nothing to push the genre and literally soars below games in that same genre. It's a fun game, but really, with such an empty world, how is it some new standard?

This is probably why I returned the game after I finished it. BOTW was my first game on the Switch....but since the reason I have the console is Pokémon, man was I letdown.

WESTWORLD MEETS POKEMON!! legggggoooo

Yea.... who's that channel btw? Bout to have a bunch of dislikes and flags on that bitch

how good was the other persons opinion?

@@casualverse not the opinion I wanted to hear. 4 out of 5 thumbs down.

MandJTV. He's a Poketuber and generally good guy. Before you dislike his video, actually watch it

🤷‍♀️

ngreen2013 then your expectations were wrong, that’s on you for getting your hopes up

Honestly I agree we thought we would get brand new graphics but we just got disappointed. It feels half baked but I’m still buying it because it will be my first real Pokemon game🙂

@@cool-acee U should play gen 1-5 everything from gen 6 and onwards was a joke.

Pokemon Stadium feels better than this

@Mcheetah Pokemon Black 2 is the best challenging pokemon game

Ryan W probably never happen

Ryan W pokemmo on the pc is your answer lmao. anyone besides game freak who has tried to make a fan made game has done way better. 4 regions, 5 gens if pokémon

Ryan W 😲😲😲 yes please!

On pc, called POKEMON MMO 3d :>

I would be willing to wait a decade or two for that

YES

This would be awesome

like dragon quest 11

like in zelda too haha

Even if they only made voice acting for main characters and gym leaders and people like nurse joy that would be cool

@Mr. POPO but you still can't in this game lol

@Mr. POPO but at least the animation on GoD were better the S&S

Bruh, if they release a remake, I'm buying it

That game was sure ahead of its time

Jesus, I thought I was a nerd. But Gameranxs never disappoints me... yall make me wonder how I never got the cheerleader in high school at this point

A Pokéball if you will

That gave me a hearty chuckle

But that's the thing isn't it? Corners DIDN'T need to cut It is baffling how this is a 60 dollar game and they are treating this with the same production value as a 3DS game Its obvious corners should have never been cut in the first place, so PokeCompany and Nintendo was way too greedy to shove out a half baked disappointment not worth that 60 dollar price tag.

Ben Link Idk about you but i’m finding it fun, definitely worth my money, and isn’t that what matters in the end? Whether the game is fun or not? And this game is very enjoyable, sure there are drawbacks and a few issues with online to begin with, but overall this isn’t a bad game, it’s well crafted, stop being so negative. It ain’t half baked.

@@teamkillerjoker1565 it is most definitely half baked. They ripped the models and animations right from sun and moon as well as some animations for NPCs. Even though they said the reason we're not getting all the pokemon is that they were spending time on the animations. It's basically still 3DS quality especially next to other Nintendo franchises on the Switch. So yeah if you enjoy it then that's great dude, but it's the definition of half baked imo Note: there's a difference between unfinished and half baked

It (was) 2019, we should have higher expectations for what games provide. They should always be pushing boundaries from what they were to what they *could* be. That's how things improve. People rip on CoD being "the same thing" repeatedly, while Pokemon isn't even as good as the previous product since gen 5

This is the second Pokemon game I've ever played. Very disappointed and bored to tears. 😩

I’m a massive Pokémon fan and I’ve enjoyed SW/SH a lot.

Lol my last pokemon games was ultra sun

Same Ive only played the first 3 religiously then just very casual after. I never heard any hype for this game and honestly didn't really pay attention to it. To me it's just a solid pokemon game nothing more or less some cool mechanics. I wish there was more pokemon and maybe a little cheaper 90$ is very steep to me, I think 59.99 would be fair. Not 79.99.

Wesley Whiteside Voice acting does not work well with some games

Main series pokemon games have never had voice acting. JRPG style games really don't need voice acting

@@Seegrump tell that to final fantasy

@Simple Weirdo and Kingdom Hearts

@@Seegrump The game has lip syncing, and long cutscenes. I think it would do nothing but benefit the game

@@greengobbler5314 the entire intro of the game should be skipable

@@ZentaBon why wouldn’t you? Why does every game have to be a child moving to a new town? Why not pick your age and the location you want to start from?

This was in Pokemon SuMo and USUM too. In DS the NPCs were always there and never ghost you, then reappear when you come to them. I used WALK THROUGH WALLS cheat and noticed how firm the game in Pokemon Black& White is and better than now.

You really don’t even notice it all that much while you’re playing. I got the game at launch and just now noticed it watching this video lol

@@Mister_Soyuz_on_YT Yeah, but as a Switch game, this is supposed to be a step up from SuMo and USUM. I certainly don't remember anything like that in any other Switch game I've watched footage of.

society doesnt need change thats the facts

Or maybe its not actually that big of a deal they removed the national dex. You ever thought of that?

@@johnathanera5863 Maybe its a big deal to some people. They cut a bunch of my favorite pokemon, and I have always been a completionist. Plus that isn't the only reason why people are deciding not to buy the game.

@@johnathanera5863 The game looks like it should be on the 3DS, not the same console that can run BotW and Skyrim. It looks lazy and pathetic by comparison.

Well.. i miss my pokemon following meand being able to check his feelings

Ok

I agree. One of the best coop parts of pokemon pearl was mining underground with friends. The arcade games were super fun too.

i never got to play the older versions i only just got the switch a few days ago 😭

boy did today make you happy

That's why it's breathe taking we are shocked by it lol

WHerb wtf is the OoT tree? Ocarina of Time? I don’t get it

Jorge Rivas some have compared the graphical quality of the trees in this game to those of ocarina of time. It’s harsh, and a big exaggeration, but there’s some truth in it. The textures on the bark and the polygons of the roots are embarrassing

i never knew trees was the main attraction in this game. wow it looks so bad! what a shocker! you could choose to be mad about the limited map design, the animations, everything else, but trees?

NW It’s a joke about how the game itself is mediocre and the tree is just a hilarious cherry on top.

Yeah, fire emblem is not "fully" voice but almost everything is and at least everything from the main story, i would have liked it if they would at least voice the story dialogue and the in battle trash talk, it would have added a new layer that we have never experienced in pokemon

thesamuraiman probably to expensive for them. I mean they won’t even hire more programmers for their garbage coding

But these devs are lazier.

@@Gumbrases Pokemon is literally the biggest media franchise of all time. Bigger than Mickey Mouse, bigger than Star Wars, look it up. There is no fucking way anything is "too expensive" for them. I don't believe that there is any other reason besides laziness, incompetence or pressure from Nintendo and a rushed product as consequence.

@@Mix_009 "Yeah, fire emblem is not "fully" voice" Actually Three Houses is fully voice.

@@WiiSage ok boomer

@@WiiSage that's not exactly how it works

Gee I say the exact same thing about girls... I still wonder why I'm a virgin.

yeah. the animations really are trash. The bottom line right now though is you kind of have to choose if you would rather ignore some of the short comings or not play pokemon at all. there is still a lot of fun to be had with this game.

Its sad cause Thwacky itself has a stick swing animation in the camping feature when it hits the feather toy....why they didn't apply that to its own battle animation is beyond me smh

theheebs100 I mean they’re trash if you were anticipating better animations from a home console Pokémon game (which is completely valid), but I’m pretty sure most of the animations are the exact same ones as the 3DS games but very slightly improved.

@@mrgibbles5427 yeah, and I think most of us wanted better animations given the beefier hardware and promises of better animations

a lot of animations are actually really good thats just the worse it gets

JoshBlack True. Its called pocket monsters for a reason.

I didn't like mega evolutions at all. Gigantamaxing looks even more unnecessary.

To be fair people like Mega Evolution now but when it was first announced people said Game Freak was ripping off Digimon

The concept sucks, the execution and mechanics are, in my opinion, really good

Megas are dumb and unnecessary.

Kerwell sun and moon is boring until the end, the end is fun and good but they focused too much on the end which made the game bad in general plus no gyms made it worse

Sun and moon was meh, waaaaaay too many cutscenes and reading.

yet it isnt a console its a hybrid one

Well I mean the switch is basically the 3ds mixed with the Wii u so

Moon Wisp yeah but the switch has other games that look fantastic. But this game looks like a 2010 game.

Hello, im thinking about buying the game. Is it still fun now? Should i buy it ((:

@@charlotteuwu8730 yes

@@guilhermefloresfeitosaguer4543 youre right but with lamest evolution you could ever imagine.Did you just saw what they did with gengar.I really hate gigantimax gengar but i really love mega gengar.Others gigantimax are also meh

They probably didn’t do mega evolutions because dynamax was litterally nothing but a bigger version of themselves.

@@Nakai865 and with a black cloud and gigantimax is nothing but weird and bad evolution.I mean who does even wants pee pee rat,snorlax with ecosystem,tower,Eiffel tower cake

@@istiaquemahmudsiam3719 tho why can’t they just shrink the gigantimax down and call it a mega evolution? Like the dynamax is just lazy as hell but the gigantimax seems like they just put extra work for nothing cause some of the gigantimax looks pretty good. Idk I felt like this new power system somehow put more work on them and put less work for them.

TheFancyUmbreon This is clearly aimed at old fans, from things that everyone wanted like skippable tutorials cutscenes ext. The whole game is much more traditional with every aspect, as an old fan i am very impressed

Mehmet Sarikaya Maybe they thought that old time fans would find new favourites and understand that it’s kinda boring to run the same mons every new game, plus they gotta think about more than just one area of play, the competitive scene would be boring and the same mega team over and over again, just like last gen. They did this for balance as well

K P That was clearly just a few examples, you really wanna find every reason to shit on this good game because it doesn’t include your favourite pokemon? Stop acting so entitled

K P Lol it isn’t dirty, it’s common sense, they have been on the issue much longer than you and came to this conclusion, what makes you think you know game design more than them, plus if you did know anything about this game, you would know that gigantamax pokemon are no stronger than dynamax pokemon and you would he able to dynamax megas, i honestly didn’t like megas because it made the main game so easy, with little intelligence you could wipe the whole game with a simple mega and some coverage moves, plus you could do it every single fight, making the normal pokemon irrelevant and the mega the new final evolution. So no adding megas wouldn’t have saved anything, just make the game boring again. They haven’t done it to piss about with you or in spite, they did it for balance.

Mehmet Sarikaya Why would they go back to and old gimmick again? it will still end up with exactly the same just with different mons in the same role, this new feature is much more refreshing and gives way to teams which couldn’t really make an impact in mega evo comps, like rain. You haven’t even played the game, so you can’t really comment on whether it is good or not.

More than

Rofl, there's no street even.

Personally, I don't want to have to run around collecting 900+ creatures and I don't care about transferring past pokemon after I beat the game. I'd prefer training up the new ones. I'm glad they set some sort of limit and drew a line somewhere!

Were you going to catch all 900+ pokemon? Over 90% of people won't. In the grand scheme of things, it's not a big corner to cut.

@@Greensky02 just because you don't want to do something doesn't mean others feel the same way. Besides you could absolutely still play that way if you wanted with all of the Pokemon included and others would still be able to enjoy catching all the Pokes. I really don't understand this mindset of "well I don't want to play that way so nobody should be able to." Why not include more and if you want to play with only new Pokes then fine, that's on you, but instead you're saying nobody should be able to play the other way because you don't find it fun.

G G pretty sure if they just included the national dex, we wouldn’t care and would’ve bought and carried on

I have to agree. The hype ruined it, like it ruined everything else. I have it and to be honest I'm having the time of my life playing this, even taking things slowly to enjoy it more, and honestly it isn't a bad game. Sure, it definitely didn't meet expectations. It's a GREAT pokemon game, but it's not on switch era level. People were expecting Pokemon: breath of the wild and that's what ruined it. I will keep loving this game like I am rn, but hopefully one day there will be a better switch pokemon game, just like black and white came after diamond and pearl, and those were GREAT improvements in the graphics department. Well I'm just waiting for diamond and pearl remakes anyways haha

Technically they didn't, we all did

Yeah, last year they and Nintendo were saying this was the game that the hardcore fans have been waiting for but it’s clearly a 3DS Pokémon ported to switch with a slightly larger scale

You're also forgetting that they made promises they couldn't keep and look what happened as a result. People are starting to lose their respect for GameFreak as a result. Granted The Pokemon Company is playing a huge role here too, but even so this is not good for the first Gen 8 and console game going forward. Now you got people worrying about the Diamond and Pearl remakes.

Fokii because... yes

Less pokemon was *bound* to happen, with about 800 different pokemon, that's strictly *data.* Other game devs agree that this Dex cut needed to happen. This game, by itself takes up about 10 gigabytes(I believe) of data, that's with every move, npc, model, and pokemon within that. People asking for BOTW tier exploration are setting the bar *way* too high And I'm not just blindingly loving the game. I have *GENUINE* complaints about the game itself. The graphics by all means aren't terrible, but they aren't great (at times) either. I feel the bar of BREATH OF THE MOTHER-FUCKING WILD, *AND* all 800+ pokemon, is, frankly unreasonable

capt. sans I’ve not played a mainline Pokemon game since Ruby on the Gameboy I think, I just wanna catch Pokemon and battle with them. Do you think this game is worth it at €60?

Coppagh yeah I’m debating weather or not to get it.. please let me know!

I'd say, yeah. It's got its issues, and considering you haven't played since Ruby, some major differences took place, but I'd say you should buy it, it eases into the mechanics well, and has an open world, so try it out.

right?i hate games that dont have any voice acting whatsoever

It would be weird tho because in pokemon they have their own language

@@nbibtnb2 True. To be fair though, the legend of Zelda series have their own language too and breath of the wild had voice acting.

Yea I really wish that there was even a little bit of voice acting included, like from the professor or gym leaders... Sigh... it would have made the battles a lot more interesting

I find it SO BIZARRE that the character were animated to have lypsincing, but theres no voice coming out. Its just a *beep* and a *beep* to end

Just cancelled my order lol

I just got a Switch, not going to buy it now...

Vish buy it its really good

I was considering buying this game but ill just buy mario odyssey or mario kart

Vish dont buy it, it looks like shit

It would be great if a company other than GameFreak made the games indeed.. I feel like the only reason the games aren't good is cause GF refuses to put much effort into them.

agreed we need versions like that of pkm games

They won't cause these are not main series games.

XD was my shit as a kid, I kinda wanna go back and try playing it again.

A remake of XD has lots of potential, would love to see that

Because gamefreak stuck with the handheld market too long and never learned how to properly develop for a console. They should’ve made a main series Pokémon game for GameCube years ago but no they kept sticking with their stupid pocket monster argument instead of learning how to develop for powerful hardware.

Because Satoru Iwata pretty much hand held GF until he died in 2015.

Because those fans will buy anything they make

Because timmies and suzies continue to buy this same shit every single time. People need to speak with their wallets more

Not just Nintendo. Look at games like Monster Hunter too... They went from handheld games to home console and overhauled everything, introduced voice acting for the first time in the series and put tons of effort to make sure the games match console standards. They even revolutionized the environments and made things feel like a real ecosystem. And that's exactly what's wrong with these games. They moved to home console without doing anything much to take advantage of it or meet the standards. The stories are still short, handholding and linear and the graphics mediocre at best. The wild areas are a step up but for the most part they're just big empty areas with not much to see. Not to mention the models and animations they copy pasted from the 3DS games. All this makes it feel more like a glorified 3DS games than actual home console games.

If you like the game, and don't go in with god tier expectations, you will be impressed by the graphics and animations and style of the game. Its really cool.

Jason dp I don’t own it but I think it looks awesome. It’s how I wanted the in-game world to look since I was a kid

@@xBlacksStarx Childish?! Sigh... Remember!, all Poke'mon out there is someone's favorite. Fans have the right to be disappointed by this game.

With this being a console release, could these games theoretically get updates regularly?

Nathaniel Kilburn yes they could software update it and add new Pokémon, will they? Probably not as they are trying to milk as much money as they can.

I can't either. I used to be a massive Pokemon fan but after this bad excuse of a pokemon game I lost my respect for them

Great, then don’t buy their products. Bye.

@@WhiteInk47 that's such a childish response. You do realise that 99% of all people complaining love the franchise, right? People are complaining because the pokemon game series could be SO much better. Saying 'just don't buy it' to people critical of the franchise is stopping the franchise from evolving.

Wishmaker Latias The anime was fire though so we should be kinda thankful

It will be called Pokemon Staff, I think. Or Pokemon Rod. LOL.

Maybe then they will add the rest of the pokemon. Nothing like Pokemon..gotta catch some? 🤷‍♂️

@@jrit12389 thay will come back, everyone is just whining, do you really think they would stay away forever?

@@magnus5747 no, I am sure the community has voiced their discontent loudly enough, but at the end of the day it is a company and unless there is a huge drop in profit they will do as they please. I just find it odd that they did do a survey on everyone's favorite pokemon from the series and of the top 100 only 26 made the cut

I feel you man. Crystal is still my favorite version up to this day.

probably because you are older now and things become easy when you become old...at the time of crystal you were playing for the first time so it seemed hard..but nevertheless i do agree this game could be made bit more hard

Never thought the GameCube could render such graphics.

@@jhayden57 Looks like one of those stylized PS3 Japanese games type of quality actually. A tales series if I may had.

It's probably been in development longer than we think... I would complain myself, but I've never tried to make a complete game...

If u don't like it, dont buy it..... is my motto

@@mrsolodolovi1386 Dude, there are PLENTY of ROM hacks with more love and care put into them than Sw/Sh. People are upset mainly because GF lied to our faces about the dex cut reasoning. "High quality animations" my ass lol.

Yah I thought with megan evolution being in 3 games at least they would classify it as a permanent part of the main games.

Yeah...especially your first two points. I also wouldn't mind a difficulty option & more mature story like gale of darkness

Their top priority should be the combat animations and porting all the pokemons.

@Kevin Cuellar Agreed ! My first pokemon game was crystal & at 10 years old i was able to beat the elite four at the very least, without knowing what i was doing, with the old exp share system & a unbalanced team with multiple of the same pokemon types. Was it difficult yeah but i got through it eventually & those are fond memories that i still think about. Children are very smart & they have access to youtube so im not sure why Gamefreak makes the newer games like were all brainless idiots.

Three houses did everything for the fire emblem franchise that pokemon refused to do.

They didnt do it because pokemon has been translated to multiple languages. Im not sure how many exactly pokemon is translated to but i can see why they didnt do that. Getting every voice actor for from every language its translated to seems like alot of work. I doubt Fire Emblem Three Houses translated all the voice acting into alot of languages

@@klotekat Game Freak certainly had the money to do it, why not go for a better experience overall?

@@klotekat They didint but hearing the voices while reading subs was great. Its like saying watching anime subs is no different than watching muted anime.

@@hollowersatz8762 lol y'all think it's easy like it's just picking a couple random people from each country to voice act money cant do everything you act like throwing money at something will make the problem go away

Cody that’s awesome that you and other people are enjoying it but honestly I refuse to support this series anymore. We are just paying for the same game over and over again with very minor changes

jeremy roberts Ok

jeremy roberts Over paying really 20$ price boost

It's a pokemon game, of course you are, there's no way to make a bad pokemon game because they're literally so basic you're gonna enjoy them normally as you would eating the same type of food all the time. It's just sad there's nothing basically new or interesting or improved.

@@jeremyroberts8822 i like the game too.. but i feel u

Games are meant to be enjoyed. It's the devs that you should love/hate for what they do to it

Yeah. I won't buy it. I didn't finish Let's Go, not even halfway before I sold it. I absolutely love pokemon, but they are holding back so much from this game for future proofing.

@@SaikoSoda I figure the only way for them to leap forward is to accept the feedback players have given them. It they keep rehashing the same generic Pokémon experience, people will just feel let down from this. Sure the kids and casuals won't care, but the long term players that spend hours of their time on it will.

It's not hard for me. I hated how they went with Let's Go and the same applies here.

@@Sonic171K This games almost identical to Sun and Moon

True

I've actually seen more people avoid the positive than the negatives

@@alexz825 Same

Becuase they get paid not to say the negatives
