Design excellence 

They really snapped 

Shame they look so fugly in game 

 

[Yawn]

if that damn apple doesn’t evolve again and have 3 stages this time… only the gigantamax apple is living up to the full potential 

 

all second evos are consistently serving an awkward and unfinished middle stage evo

this would be the best news ever tbh

we don't need a Legends/Let's Go spin off. 

I was really looking forward a spin-off or a remake announcement but after seeing how FUGLY the 3d models are, I changed my mind 

 

Hopefully gen10 have better models

 

Actually, the models are fine I think, they need to fix the fugly texture and art style

I'm interested to see the typing for the Raikou and Cobalion. Raikou seems to be electric/dragon and Coballion is probably fighting/electric? or steel/electric?

 

I like the Duraludon evolution and how it goes from being a skyscrapper to a big bridge. Interested to see its stats tbh and same for the legendaries.

Coballion is Steel/Psychic 

 

The beast are all gonna be dragon types and the swords all psychic

I think the apple is basically a 3rd evolution for Applin, it goes along with Appletun & Fapple.

Oh got it. I wonder what they'll do with Entei, since all beasts are turning into dinosaurs, maybe a type of Triceratops? a Stegosaurus?

Raikou's official art being leagues better than in-game, mess. Also why did they make P-Virizion so boring when P-Cobalion looks really cool, I get the original Virizion design is great but they did her dirty smh.

 

The DLC overall seems cute though. I wasn't expecting much outside of DLC and the usual random apps/Go being talked about here, though why they even bothered showing this in the Nintendo Direct 2 months ago is so  

 

Will be nice to play the TCG GB game and Stadium 2 at least. They really should get RBYGSCRSE onto NSO but I'm kinda doubtful they will... 

[Hallad173]

Pokémon TCG was suuuupeer fun back in the day so that’s the best news of the direct for me.
 

Bulbasaur&Friends deck here I come!

why did he say that?! 

[thatsmydemi]

Future paradox look better in-game than past paradox forms. Past paradox forms look better in official artworks although I must say I love the details of Virizion/Cobalion (those sparkling parts). Virizon's animation with the swords is cool and looks like Cobalion will have something similar with the horns. 

[BambiStar]

Raikou isn't bad, though awkward placement of the clouds kinda ruins it. Would look so much better at the base of neck as a collar instead of attached to its face

 

T-Rex Entei next I guess 

 

Candy Applin is such a useless evo, like it better have a 3rd stage or what's the point  the way Gmax Flapple/Appletun would be the perfect final evo for it

 

 drawbridge Deluludon evo it went from worse to worser

[BambiStar]

Also according to the Nintendivas Pokemon's 15+ million selling Switch games are 'flops'.

 

Sooo... my takeaway from that is Game Freak really IS a small indie dev team? omg we were right all along 

[poki]

Pokemon Sleep - a game that makes waking up something to look forward to. 

 

This speaks to my soul. 

[Tsareena]

 can the returning pokemon in the dlc be traded to people with just the base game? I need oddish line for this grass mono run

[Chromatica]

Applin and Duraludon getting an evo is too early for me, probably because their evos don't look that different.

 

A Unova dragon evo as Drayton's ace would've been nice, Druddigon or split evo for Fraxure.

 

Nat. Dex will look a mess with Walking Wake followed by Dipplin and the trio, Ogerpon and then Raikou and Cobalion paradoxes  

[Chromatica]

Also I love how they're giving old legendary trios new forms or members (besides the lake guardians ).

Galarian birds, Regieleki/drago, Enamorus, paradox beasts and swords of justice.

Not confirmed tho

 

I don't see Raging Bolt being Electric/Dragon in the same Gen as Miraidon. Maybe Electric/Dark? 

[Magickarp]

Duraludon evo when Goodra-H is already tanking  Her Eviolite Pre-Evo gonna outclass Goodra-H defensively, & the evo gonna outclass offensively  Currently one ability is Stamina, so the evo might even outclass Body Press Goodra-H  

 

Khu hinted @ Drayton, being related to Drayden a month ago, & now that we know their names, it seems even more so. 

Plus his ace being shaped like a bridge really serves Unova

 

Applin's evo looking like Regional Applin  the site says it's actually 2 worms inside there this time. "The head sticking out seems to belong to one of two separate creatures, while the tail belongs to the other. Both creatures help each other out from within their shared apple." Kinda like this:

It really does serve Unova

[Magickarp]

Archaludon's sigmove being  Meteor Beam, but no charge in Rain OR Snow  

Her ability being Stamina too, so she can raise her SPA, DEF, & attack with a 120BP move in 1 turn  at least it's not STAB...

Reminder that Duraludon already has 535 BST  Goodra-H better get Recovery is2g.

 

[yourfaveisaflop]

dipplin is cute tbh. Archaludon i hate but like???? Raging bolt and iron crown are good also. I think im gonna wait on buying the dlc. 

[Haze]

Half toying with the idea of replaying Scarlet (i liked SWSH more upon replay, because I didn't have hopes it'd be good) but does anybody know if the first DLC is restricted to post game? Isle of armor wasn't, and it made SWSH much better for it. If it is not, i'd better wait.

[Graves]

Raikou already had the worst design of the original three beasts, and it's looking to stay that way with the paradox beasts too
