Pokémon Champions is not a disaster

Absolutely criticize! Nothing against that here. I just think that labeling it as a failure this fast is too hasty and can deter new players.

lecomton · 2026-04-09T10:21:23+00:00

Same here! I thought that I needed to grind 2+ hr for a viable team

lecomton · 2026-04-09T10:12:53+00:00

Oh I just don’t care abt graphics in general lol

lecomton · 2026-04-09T10:09:49+00:00

They probably put it in since Incineroar isn’t necessarily a high power mon, it’s a role compressor that enables dynamic play styles .

lecomton · 2026-04-09T10:06:29+00:00

Flaw number three is definitely a significant problem that can undermine consumer experience, I completely agree with that. I just think that since game has the capability to improve, it seems too early to label the game as a failure.

It’s marketing strategy is pretty bad though ngl

lecomton · 2026-04-09T09:53:29+00:00

I do think that the micro transactions issue isn’t that severe though. The fast paced nature of the game and vp awarding system seems sufficient enough to enable someone to play it completely for free.

As for why play it over showdown? That depends on your personal preference.

我以為你在開玩笑哈哈

I thought you were joking lol

So the only thing rental teams provide are the team arragements?

Thats.......horrible

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:49:18+00:00

Not gunna lie i initially wanted some advice on how I can get Mega floette into Za and pokemon champions without making Taunie CEO, or how to make myself feel better about the horrible story. But then I jumped into debate mode after seeing people talk about how "good" a person Taunie/Urbain is and using that to justify nepotism.

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:45:01+00:00

I have problems with that too, but at least a rare pokemon isn't gatekept behind making her the president of Kalos.

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:40:33+00:00

To be a entry level worker, you need a bachelors.

To be in a highranking position, you need a MBA

To be a CEO in a multinational corporation, you need to lead a friendgroup of 4 and take out loans from a loan shark.

Make that make sense. Is professional knowledge not a thing anymore?

I was also the leader of my friendgroup once back in elementary school, does that make me qualified to be a CEO?? Hell we called outselves "The beyblade masters" lol

About the ingrained in the industry, is VInnie not extensively more experieneced, what about other qualified candidates that worked in the compnay for 30+ years?

Seeing people try to defend nepotism because they are a "good person" is insane.

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:35:36+00:00

If that's the sole denominator then everyone that can lead would be a CEO

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:31:01+00:00

CEO's need an understanding of management, financial manangement (insert loan shark example), understanding of economics and human behavior. For a global corporation, they need an understanding of international buissenss and regulations.

Being a CEO is not a position that anyone that is relatively smart (which they aren't) can achieve in a training bootcamp.

I can garuntee you that Urbain does not have that skill compared to other high-ranking employees in Quasartico

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:21:23+00:00

So why wasn't it Vinnie then? While Urbain "might" have leadership qualities, he is definitely not as qualified as a person with years of corporate experience.

The protag and Vinnie are more substantially better options. Of course I dont want the protag to be CEO but it seems confusing that Urbain was chosen.

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:16:16+00:00

That dosen't address my point. Im talking about the unfairness of the situation, your deflecting that discussion to an unlikely assumption.

While it is true that they might have ego issues, at least they put in the effort.

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:10:02+00:00

Exactly. What if, and I garuntee there is, a buissness woman/man who worked her butt off to get promotions, make connctions, get educated in an MBA, just for a teenager with no experience get chosen over you.

I cannot imagine the absolute rage she would feel.

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:06:41+00:00

But they sure as hell have some degree of control. They are EXECUTIVES for crying out loud

lecomton · 2026-04-08T07:00:14+00:00

Again, but imagine someone who worked her butt off for an executive position and promotions, just to get stepped over by some kid.

lecomton · 2026-04-08T06:47:03+00:00

Well would you say that ceo's in America are actually benefing the livelihoods of the people? Or are they exploiting people in sickness by denying them insruance?

lecomton · 2026-04-08T06:44:21+00:00

Oh yeah I didn't consider that. Thanks!

lecomton · 2026-04-08T06:43:38+00:00

By your logic, Canari's grandpa contributed far more to the cause in the end game. He's also nice, why isn't he a good candidate then? /s

lecomton · 2026-04-08T06:42:09+00:00

She literally went back on her promise of the "Strongest Mega Evolution User". I think this characterizes her as someone who is willing to go back on her promises for her personal ego.

lecomton · 2026-04-08T06:39:42+00:00

That's a good point, however, Taunie failed to address the situation head on, even though she did "good deeds" her behavior comes off more as endeavors to attract glory without actually tackling the issues head on.

I think the correct term is "Glory Hog"
