As it should!

SM would be A rank if not for her horrendous lack of replayability.

How does it feel knowing u have the same taste as Joe Merrick, & share a closer genetic pool to him than most of the world.

Famitsu has reported that Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have surpassed 8,300,000 copies sold in Japan. With that, Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet combined have now become the best-selling Pokemon game ever in the region. Pokémon Red and Green were the ones that previously held that record, meaning that this is the first time in Pokemonhistory that this record has been broken.
 

 

oh

How is Arceus #1 then 

[thatsmydemi]

You know Scarlet and Violet are good when the only thing people come for is their performance. If performance had been good, the game would be everyone's favourite Pokemon game probably.

[Fevesy]

Well.. speaking of 

 

I just finished my first playthrough of Arceus with catching Arceus. I'm almost 3 years late but I had a blast tbh. I still have to catch Darkrai/Shaymin/Manaphy I guess but yeah I don't see myself going for the shiny charm. I enjoyed the small combat moments with the agile/strong moves and how you couldn't just overlevel the (small amount) of fights there was. 

 

I certainly had more fun there than my first playthrough of Scarlet/Violet but I am gonna go back Scarlet/Violet since I haven't played the DLC yet. Not sure if I should restart from the beginning w/ the DLC or just play the DLC with my current save which is 2 years old and I don't recognise wtf is going on

PLA was a time. Can't wait for A-Z.

Pokemon TCG Pocket made me obsessed with the TCG again and I just ordered 700eur worth of cards.   HELP

What is this revisionism

The world is an lifeless empty circular golf course with precious little to interact with, many of the designs suck or are rehashed from old mons, the 'villains' are teenagers again, the difficulty is nonexistent outside of the last DLC, despite being told that you can go and do whatever whenever there is no level scaling and there is a progression that you would have to look up to know, Tera is a FLOP

[Chiidish]

Coming out as a Scar/Vio enjoyer.

Half of those things you mention are either irrelevant or subjective 

 

Spoiler

I agree with you about the level scaling, which is **** and difficulty, but this has always been a problem with main pokemon games since they entered the 3D era anyway.

 

My point still stands though. Had the performance of the game been good, Scarlet and Violet would be most people's favorite Pokemon game

Ooooooh, you didn't have to eat this hard, and you're spot-on right with SM: a rushed released caused them to severely lack in postgame activities 

 

Also, SV would have been the best games if it weren't for the huge ass, embarrassing technical problems, so f- The Pokémon Company for rushing its release, thus ruining it

Getting nostalgic about Gen 2, I wanna go back and play HG/SS. Was just thinking of how iconic it was when you cross regions on that path with the caves and waterfalls, and encounter roaming Suicune in the overworld, along with Ecruteak City and the sages, Olivine City, that Dratini quest, etc.  that was a classic

Planning on buying the best-looking Pokemon game on Switch next week, that is to say, New Pokemon Snap. 

 

It's gonna be a great and lovely way to spend Christmas this year.

I bought some booster packs lately and therefore have a few TCG Live codes. Does anyone of you have any use for them?
