your family will never afford a switch if you keep smoking and drinking your money away
anon I hope you're not talking yo yourself
It is the schizo copium anon that claims everybody that hates SV and the switch is a mexican that can't buy the console.
They literally aren’t though you fucking retard. I got them both without paying a fucking penny for the DLC.
You still have to pay for the online, I think.
No. You can update the Raids without a sub.
You can't get the other version's exclusive without online though. Scarletfags need to host Walking Wake so that Violetfags can get it
>You can't get the other version's exclusive without online though
Until home functionality comes in and you can use the gts.
You pay for that too.
No you don't there is a free option but your very limited in the amount of storage and how many Pokemon you can put up
No you don't.
You can use home for free which also allows for a gts slot
While correct so what before raids you needed to trade for Pokémon. Now you'll say but I didn't need online from gen 4 to 7 for the Gts which is a moot point considering Nintendo didn't ask for money for online, besides that you still had to trade the exclusive. You can just get someone that has your opposite version to host a raid locally
Yeah, and if you play Scarlet you can't get Misdreavus without online. It's a matter of opinion whether it's fair or not, but those have been the rules of the game for over twenty years.
Imagine not having friends
Or, and this is far more likely, the DLC adds a part of Area Zero where you can encounter multiples of them just like the rest of the Paradoxes, due to them already being hinted at existing in Paldea through the various books in-game.
And that's ignoring the "all past Legendary-equivalent pokémon will return for VGC after Year One" bit they've been pulling since, what 2004?
Gen 5 didn’t pull that horseshit.
On the contrary, they didn't go full-bore (you needed to have bought past games to get the box legends) but still added shit like Heatran, Cresselia, the Lke Trio, the Regi family (including Gigas), the Eon duo, etc.
>Pokemon are now expendable dlc preorder bonuses
>now
true, because gen 5 had that zorua bullshit instead
Dlc preorder bonus is 4 uniforms and a hisuan zoroark.
>hisuan zoroark
You're proving OP's point in a way.
>hisuan zoroark
Got one H-Zorua (in a moon ball) through wonder trade. Bred it to oblivion and pumped almost all of them (100+) back into wonder trade. Left only a couple of females. I will not hesitate to trade them to anyone interested or to breed more for that purpose.
Based troll possibly sending out 100+ illegals
The event 1 comes in a cherish ball which means its locked to pokeball bred, no way to change the ball via game, no home support yet
Was it in a raid?
You can change the ball, Zorua and regional Zorua count as the same Pokemon for ball inheritance, so if you catch a regular Zorua in a moon ball and breed with Hisui it will be 50/50 moon/pokeball
hey retard you can breed them with zorua caught in paldea too
as long as the hisuian one has an everstone the egg will be hisuian too
>zoroark
is available for free to wohever magic trade a dozen pokes.
They aren't preorder bonuses you fucking retard. Thanks for confirming the anti SV fags on this board haven't even played the game
>B-BUT IT WON’T BE IN THE NEXT GAME
only retards who don’t actually play the games think this way
I don't know, it seems like a reasonable concern.
Not for people who actually play the games instead of daydreaming about imaginary games.
tepig?
Majority of Gen 8 Pokemon, and especially Dynamaxes arent in SV
You already lost your argument
t. doesn’t actually play pokemon. Just boots it up and looks at the screen without playing.
god i wish scat/vomit was imaginary
they aren't? atleast read up on the thing you're claiming first
I don't play anything past Alola. Gen 7 is my cut-off line.
What are you on about? Walking Wake and Iron Leaves had nothing to do with the DLC - they were available to anyone who had the games, regardless of whether or not you even looked at the DLC, let alone actually preordered it. The Hisuian Zororark was a preorder, but that's not anything you'd get locked out of ever owning when you can just trade one from PLA.
They will be natively available in the DLC at some point. They are effectively the equivalent of the Galarian Slowpoke event in SWSH, a small tease of what’s to come that even non-DLC players could access but you cannot naturally acquire on your own until then.
These Pokémon are only once per save despite sharing the same species strengths totals as Iron Valiant and Roaring Moon. Much like the Galarian Slowpoke being once per save.
Yeah, but that's still my point - they aren't locked behind the DLC, they're available (or WERE available, before the event period ended) to anyone regardless. You didn't need the DLC to get them at all, and if they actually do show up again as DLC 'mons, you can bet your ass they'll be tradable, so it's still possible to get them without paying.
Yes, but the convenience of acquiring them solo is still only via DLC
Ain't about the convenience, dude. The argument was that they were paywalled and you had no other way of getting them, which is wrong. The raids were open to everyone regardless of who did or did not get the DLC, and they'll be easily obtainable through the GTS after the DLC drops for those who are still choosing not to pay. It may not be as convenient as it would be if you just payed for the DLC, but that doesn't change the fact that OP's claim is bullshit.
GTS requires you to pay
No it doesn't.
You can use the gts for free, paying only gets you more trade slots.
It should still be in the game itself but don't lie
>The main gimmick pokemon are absent from the next gen!
Yeah that would be weird if that didn't happen every gen
The raids are going to be reran during April after the next patch so it’s not that big of a deal.
isn't baffling that people say SV is good but simultaneously say SWSH is bad even though they share many of the same flaws?

It's all worse in /ss/.
what a non-player, tertiary comment. You literally pasted that list from a youtube video to show off.
He's right and you're incapable of arguing otherwise.
The only thing he's actually correct on is the removal of transfer moves. Everything else is just as bad, if not worse in gen 8.
>he
defend yourself face to face, spineless worm
You keep posting the same shit in every thread and you never actually make an argument.
>dexcut
oh my god it's been 3 fucking years and the dechuds keep crying about this i'd rather have an organized dex than a packed dex which then becomes an all against
>forced exp share
"Do you guys want to farm xps for five days straight just to get my charizard up ten levels?"
jokes aside i legit don't care but yes they should let whiners like you turn it off if that's what makes you happy
>move cut
you mean scald? it's kind of the only move that i miss there aren't many water moves with high accuracy single target
>no transfer moves allowed
oof
>shitty toby fox music
get some taste
>no post game
there is a 10 minute postgame
>bad graphics
pokemon always had bad graphis compared to other games don't pretend you always cared
>bad animations
same thing for graphic
>shitty DLC model
we literally don't have gameplay footage yet
>ugly pokemon designs
that's kalos
>ugly character designs
that's kalos
>oh my god it's been 3 fucking years and the dechuds keep crying about this i'd rather have an organized dex than a packed dex which then becomes an all against
In his defence, we have had national and regional toggles and options in the past.
That said, pokemon has 1000+ unique designs not counting forms which may add another 100 to that, no other monster tamer series has to constantly update that many monsters.
And even with the dexcut it still has one of the largest rosters of monsters.
> i'd rather have an organized dex than a packed dex which then becomes an all against
What do you even mean
It means only retarded ESLs defend modern Pokemon.
first mew had to be bought by going to the cinema.
Counter argument:
You can get the entire regional dex with the base game.
Gen 1: Mew
Gen 2: Celebi
Gen 3: Jirachi
Gen 4: Cresselia, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus
Gen 5: Victini, Keldeo, Meloetta, Genesect
Gen 6: Diancie, Hoopa, Volcanion
Gen 7: SM Full Regional Dex
Gen 7: USUM Zeraora, Meltan, Melmetal
Gen 8: Full Regional Dex
Gen 9: Full Regional Dex
You can't get Zerude in the base game in the same way you couldn't get Mew.
You can't get Tangrowth in Diamond & Pearl either.
What? You can't get Marshadow and Mag in SM either. And they're definitely in the regional dex at 301 and 302
regardless, fuck if that matters.
>outright falsehoods
>ignoring Mythicals were NEVER required for the Region's Pokédex determination
PLA is the only game in the entire series that lets you get the entire dex in singleplayer.
He said base, not single.
If it requires trading or an event, it's not the base game. It requires extras.
Anon, "base" refers to the original release, as in no remakes, third versions, spin offs etc.
Multiplayer is a part of the base game.
"Base" refers to the game directly out of the box without anything extra.
Which would be the two paired versions.
>dude what if this one game was actually two?
>yes two games sold as one series sell more than standalone game
If you need to buy anything more than a game, it's not the "base" game anymore. Trading, transfers, and events obviously don't count.
Well I guess XY isn't a "base" game then.
Yes, XY is indeed a base game.
don't forget Phione with Manaphy, that shit was such an artificial dex slot I'm still mad to this day
Manaphy was such bullshit
>needed ranger
>needed to complete the game
>then needed to complete a special story
>could only obtain it ONCE per game cart, and never again.
>You'll probably never see this thing again thanks to the dexcut.
You had 4 years.
you are a few years late for that
