ChickletLARP

ChickletLARP

Glittery Jim
fwiw, Dec. 31st is a placeholder date
Rizu
don't know if it helps anything, but they usually put December -- yeah
Rizu
it's a placeholder, the real release date is likely in November. They do it that way so that parents have time to get gifts for their kids for Christmas
Glittery Jim
Considering the previous pokemon release dates, I'd expect late October-mid/late November for x-mas
Glittery Jim
Rizu you on it
Rizu
you too o/
ChickletLARP
Yeah, Pokemon irritatingly loves to release in November.
Vincent Gogh
Glittery Jim One can hope :3
Glittery Jim
I would guarantee it. Especially cos I can't see anything else being Nintendo's Big Game for the holidays
Glittery Jim
and I guarantee they're gonna make a special edition Switch to go along with it, and what better time to launch it than right before x-mas
Rizu
yep\
Rizu
it's smart, really. parents would go for it thinking it would make their kids' christmas, gotta remember who their target market is
Glittery Jim
yup. that's the nintendo way.
Glittery Jim
the only other Big release this year is Animal Crossing, and even that's lukewarm at best, it seems.
Glittery Jim
but fuckin everyone loves Pokemon
Rizu
yeah I love Animal Crossing to death but it's no where near the powerhouse that is Pokemon
Glittery Jim
same
Vincent Gogh
^
Glittery Jim
like, I can hold off if AC gets a summer release. Pokemon though? Fuuuuuck
Rizu
personally I hope that the fire bunny turns into a fire fairy but we'll see
Glittery Jim
As long as he's soccer-themed, and not fire/fighting, I don't care.
Glittery Jim
give me soccerbun
Rizu
(LOL) WELL I DON'T KNOW ABOUT SOCCER-THEMED but that'd be neat too
Glittery Jim
some people pointed out that he looks like he's wearing a rugby jersey, and they're clearly doing something that looks soccer-adjacent, and considering how huge football is in the UK on which the region is based, I'd be surprised if they didn't
Glittery Jim
but my adorable fire tiger turned into a wrestling heel, so idek
Glittery Jim
I am rather curious about the other two though. Sobble is some kind of chameleon, so that offers a lot of possibility, but all I get from Grookey is... monkey
Glittery Jim
which Grass/fighting could be cool but ouch 4x flying
Glittery Jim
idk what else I'd expect just based on his first evo design
Un(t)sundered
I mean, at least Incineroar wasn't fire/fighting
Un(t)sundered
wrestle-themed, sure
Janzoo
hnnnnnNNNNGGGG MY BODY IS READY
Un(t)sundered
but not actually fighting type
Glittery Jim
he may as well have been, but still, Fire/fighting is... it's overdone. so overdone. pls no more
Glittery Jim
fire/electric would be a great addition finally.
Un(t)sundered
god yeah, if we get another fire/fighting that'll be literally half the fire starters
Glittery Jim
eugh
Glittery Jim
don't get me wrong, Blaziken and Infernape are rad af
Glittery Jim
but emboar made me sad. I wanted a huge razorback
Glittery Jim
tho lbr infernape isn't very good. I just really like his design
Rizu
eh, it's fast and strong. I like it a lot, especially since it really gives me monkey king sun wukong vibes, but I can admit that it could have a better movepool
