Would you trust another pokemon game on the Switch 1 after Scarlet and Violet?

In 2027, it better be.

Why would you ever expect anything else?

Not having the game hindered by switch 1 hardware (and probably devkit) will sure be an improvement

Thank god. It’s been 3/4 of a year, and we’ve got what? 2 so far?

I heard someone else say the same thing. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

And it looks a little bit more graphically impressive than previous instalments?

Definitely, but anything else would have been very disappointing. They have much more hardware power at their disposal compared to Switch 1 after all. I don't know if I'd say that these are impressive graphics by Switch 2 standards, but they're finally at a point where they look nice, which is ultimatey all that matters.

I really doubt those are in game graphics.

And its Not final. I'm Sure world building is mostly done. But I believe chars and Pomémon model will also bei polished.

I expected less tbh. I'm curious about further steps later in years.

Legends Z-A was the title for the switch 2. I mean, Scarlet and Violet was clearly supposed to be the switch 2 title (its obvious they developed the game for that hardware) but they needed to rush it to get their one game a year quota.

They have to make time to finish that Sekiro-like.

What was wrong with scarlet and violet? I enjoyed them, but they were my first Pokemon game since the Gameboy SP.

Oh, yes. And the shark has a N64 number of polygons, and they tried to copyright the term "jumping the shark". But it's okay, because there's a horde of dumb people that will buy it anyway.

I've played every main-line and reboot pokemon game since they came out. I didn't finish Scarlet and Violet, it was so bad, also didn't finish Legends Arceus cause it was so lazy, and I've never played Legends Z-A. They've stopped putting in any amount of effort, so why should I bother to play them?

It definitely depends on how much they incorporate improvements from Legends: Arceus Z-A (one of the side games). Gens 6 - 8 were all so easy that a popular way to play each of those is with a difficulty mod, if you are able.

Gen 9 tried to mix it up a bit, but as another user mentioned the performance on the Switch was so poor that it was hard to enjoy.

Legends: Arceus Z-A has introduced several quality of life features that could be game changing if they make it into Winds & Waves, but we shall see. This could be the most fun mainline gen, if they do it right, or they could fumble it again.

Edit: Looking back, both times I meant to say Z-A I said Arceus. Whoops.

The Internet hates modern pokemon - and a lot of their critiques are valid - but imo they've been consistently fun and I have no idea why there's so much hate for the latest ones which were a pretty chill time

Game Freak hasn't put any effort into their games since going 3D.

There's a reason why Pokemon XD and Battle Revolution still look the best, and they're not even made by GF.

When hell freezes over, we’ll get the Pokémon game we all want and deserve
