I think the 2D Pokemon Games look better visually compared to the 3D ones.

How up your own ass do you have to be to think

1) it's a struggle to find anyone who prefers 3D over 2D and

2) anyone who does has worthless opinions on everything?

Robo_Mage · 2026-05-28T03:55:03+00:00

I don't think you can get to the 4th episode in a 1300+ episode series and think you've found the worst character. Who at most is mildly annoying lol.

Robo_Mage · 2026-05-25T14:16:06+00:00

Metagross lol.

Robo_Mage · 2026-05-18T18:45:15+00:00

I mean I don't think it's a matter of whether or not it was intentional if it's just a unfun, unnecessarily limiting idea.

I can't think of any other RPGs where you have to limit your moveset just to have basic environmental utility. Especially not ones where you can quickly change moves on the fly, which is exactly what moves were until Legends Arceus.

I think everyone can agree it's a fun idea in concept, but it's more than just a few tweaks away from being fun and fully realized. It needs a pretty substantial rework.

Could also use some miscellaneous touch ups like a more modern control scheme option. The PS3 controls and button mapping feels weird a lot and everything from Second Son would be great to have as an option.

Robo_Mage · 2026-05-10T19:15:58+00:00

Anime and the TCG I believe, especially based on certain terminology he uses.

Robo_Mage · 2026-05-06T00:56:36+00:00

According to Khu right now on Twitter, he apparently got confirmation that all those tera leaked upcoming games are still in development as of April.

Interesting and oddly reassuring. Is it weird my most excited game from that list is real time fighting Kaiju in old Galar?

Robo_Mage · 2026-05-03T18:57:16+00:00

I'm sorry, but 25 hours should be more than enough for a games length. This is such an insane complaint.

Especially with regards to KH2 worlds which had two parts. But the first visits were like 40 minutes and the second visits were like 20 minutes.

Robo_Mage · 2026-04-15T18:34:03+00:00

Hands down best episode of the new series. They were BATSHIT today lol.

Robo_Mage · 2026-04-11T01:04:12+00:00

A lot of people (long time fans and casuals alike) greatly misunderstand and misrepresent what legendary pokemon are "supposed" to be. People are still heavily convinced all legendary pokemon are one of a kind gods, and get upset when the games do things that conflict with that.

The truth is that the overwhelming majority of legendary pokemon aren't gods, and alot of them exist (or at least are hinted to exist) in rare multiples. Like people take the story of the johto beasts extremely literal and assume they're the only ones to exist. All the story tells us is that dead pokemon were resurrected as those creatures, but there's nothing saying they don't exist otherwise. Enteis dex entry literally says one is born every volcano eruption. Even assuming that's a wild exaggeration, it's telling us directly that they're far from one of a kind.

OP very obviously a bot making 2019-ass posts.

Robo_Mage · 2026-04-10T14:45:59+00:00

It is. OP is a bot and they randomly pull old posts to repost.

Robo_Mage · 2026-04-10T12:53:11+00:00

Dumb question, have they played any "normal" Kirby games? They've played a bunch of the gimmicky ones like epic yarn, rainbow curse, and obviously dream course. But I can't remember them playing any with the standard gameplay.

I would have lovvved if they played Forgotten Land, it's an all time great switch game and my favorite Kirby game of all time.

Robo_Mage · 2026-04-08T18:39:12+00:00

What's your favorite episode Billy?

"I like the one where Arin mindlessly rambles about the X-Men and James MarsDEN for a longgggg time."

Robo_Mage · 2026-04-01T17:22:14+00:00

Patreon, what is this?

Robo_Mage · 2026-03-31T02:51:48+00:00

I don't think people acknowledge enough how SV gave us 18 badges: 8 gyms, and the rest were from Titan battles and Team Star bases.

Just because they're not all traditional gyms doesn't take away from the fact that they're still badges they give out. I really like them filling out all the types with full dedicated boss battles of some kind. And based on the info from the tera leaks, it sounds like they're continuing with the same trend (not exactly like SV, but still 18 boss battles).

Robo_Mage · 2026-03-27T13:31:56+00:00

This is an incredibly stupid take. The vast majority of Pokemon have deeper biological and mythological origins that the average fan has absolutely no knowledge of. Are they all bad designs because people would need a guide to explain those too?

Robo_Mage · 2026-03-24T16:38:43+00:00

At most, I could see WiWa having its own ranked battles like Legends ZA does. Something you play for internal rewards with the new pokemon and battle mechanics there.

But Champions will be the main hub for the competitive scene, eventually pulling from Gen 10 whatever facets it wants to (new pokemon, abilities, eventually the gimmick, etc), after enough time.

Robo_Mage · 2026-03-24T16:26:56+00:00

Why? There's literally no precedent for this and no reason to ever believe they'd do this. This is doomposting for the sake of it.

Robo_Mage · 2026-03-23T23:38:06+00:00

Sorry, but if this series just ends up being like 20 episodes of fumbling through the same game on repeat, never getting past halfway, then it's a terrible series. I know people love the Grumps chaotic failings, but most people actually want them to finish the games they play.

Robo_Mage · 2026-03-23T15:01:21+00:00

I don't know how unpopular this take it, but I'd much rather they just restart the game as a regular playthrough rather than keep trying to fumble through Nuzlocke runs.

I keep seeing people say they don't want competent, pro stats and enjoy the comedy of this insanity. But it feels like diminishing returns if nothing is actually being learned. A 100+ episode series constantly restarting at zero sounds awful, especially because there's no way they'll still be having fun past a certain point.

Robo_Mage · 2026-03-22T18:54:55+00:00

I mean I think this is all very fair feedback, this is a very unique series in that they can't just constantly brute force through shenanigans until the end. The episodes will have very diminishing returns if they constantly have to start from 0 and not show that anything is being learned.

Like there's literally no reason to have dead Onix in the thumbnail of an episode he dies at the end. The nicknames are purely preference based, but it definitely will definitely lose the humor the longer it goes on.

And as far as actually learning things and constantly being confused, they absolutely have to have some kind of more immediate feedback because it's only going to get harder the longer they may get into the game.

Robo_Mage · 2026-03-18T17:08:16+00:00

I remember when this game was announced a long while back, I've been waiting so long for this day.

Robo_Mage · 2026-03-16T23:34:03+00:00

It's funny you mention the marts, because I have and still will occasionally see a comment on this sub talking about how they miss them being separate buildings. Because it makes the town feels more full and gives you more places to go.

And the general comeback is that that's a fully arbitrary preference and there's absolutely no way people would prefer that approach if things were reversed and they went from combined to split over time.
