@Mermaid_Dork @JoeMerrick @KryZenDesigner idk if you've ever played a competitive game like league or valorant whatsoever, but yes, new players are kind of like braindead morons you have no clue what you're doing and why your opponent is doing what. now you have to laugh and think about why your opponent brought murkrow

@oorozco16 @DetectivEsse abilities still activate before switch. if you switch an incineroar in first, it intimidates, then the opponent's switch happens. same thing happens to goth

@bertcamemcus @DetectivEsse But wasn’t that when abilities activated after switch but now the ability activated before the switch in the Greninja clip?

@Mermaid_Dork @KryZenDesigner its just easing people into it. its a release of the game, and the release will always be a larger new playerbase than the times after if you watched fuslie get into VGC, she took way too much time to prep for it and she still gets moves and type charts wrong. its pretty normal

@bertcamemcus @KryZenDesigner I gwt where you’re coming from, but it’s hilarious sorry lmao. You’re literally pitching a game releasong with the tutorial parts of the game and to wait until a sifficient percentage of the playerbase completes the tutorial to release the actual game hahaha

@KryZenDesigner @Mermaid_Dork you cant use PBR and stadiums as an example. they weren't trying to get beginners into VGC the same way. its a growing community that they plan to grow even more and the barrier to entry is lower now sure it restricts it, but it'll come later

@Mermaid_Dork @bertcamemcus The blank point is anyway, you wont know until you try and learn Removing all of that not only restricts fun strategies in vgc, but makes stuff like little cup, draft leagues, restricted formats, etc etc less assessable to mess around with Would i have loved Rotation Battles

@Mermaid_Dork @KryZenDesigner if you give beginners a whole batch of pokemon, example, clefairy and clefable. clefable has clearly higher BST in every single stat. which one would they choose? the beginner doesn't have time to worry about these yet. let them learn about stat bumps, splits, and the game first

@KryZenDesigner @Mermaid_Dork quite frankly it's not a day 1 thing. i'm not saying they are completely right, but it is hard to determine what eviolite pokemon are strong. you wouldnt think magmar, electabuzz, porygon2, clefairy, and murkrow are STRONG pokemon. no beginner thinks that.

@bertcamemcus @Mermaid_Dork See i can understand that argument for IVs, even if the removal is a shame But like learning what pokemon are strong is like a day 1 thing you learn, that just feels like a weak answer overall quite frankly Its just an unnecessary change they’ve never worried about before

@KryZenDesigner @Mermaid_Dork you're talking as if they're never gonna add it into the game, which they will. hope you can read, but it says "but for now"

If you actually read my replies you would know that I addressed the whole "people hate incineroar too" logic and how it is a false equivalence because unlike prim the reasons incineroar was hated were unrelated to its gender coding
MangaKamen - 99%@Manga_Kamen

Alright if we wanna play this game 1) you didn’t provide examples yourself- you just said this was the case 2) love how you forgot about people’s hate for Incineroar, Cinderace, Inteleon, Chesnaught - pretty much a lot of humanoid pokemon that have more masculine traits but still hated to this day

@Mermaid_Dork @JoeMerrick @KryZenDesigner just treat it like any other ban list. every box legendary is available in reg I EXCEPT for the gen 6 ones so should i be crashing out like you guys? it's a banlist. get over it and play the game, or dont lmao

@JoeMerrick @KryZenDesigner You’re being pedantic just for the sake of winning an argument lol. You know yhis is about the wording in the Q&A. It’s implicit that if PorygonZ or Clefable, for example make it into the game, Clafairy and Porygon2 won’t be usable.

@Iamconfuuzed @JoeMerrick i dont think you can use viability as an excuse to decide what pokemon is banned or not in a pokemon game xerneas is SO viable so should i be crashing out about xerneas not being available in reg I right now? just treat it the same as any ban list whats wrong with that

@JoeMerrick I get where you're coming from but the issue isn't that not every Pokémon won't be available to begin with, it's that certain won't be available at all. P2 and clefairy are used in vgc far more than their evolutions, so their exclusion doesn't make sense in the context of champs

I'm a bit perplexed at some of the takes I'm seeing regarding Champions not having unevolved Pokémon at launch Like, SV didn't have Clefairy for 10 months, Porygon2 for 13, Incineroar for 13 and you didn't have people saying it can't be the place for competitive due to it?

@JoeMerrick @FrostedYukio no it is most definitely NOT a different scenario. it's an extension of a core system of the main series titles and as such theres no excuse for every mon not being in the game eventually. but also since it's NOT a main series title and doesn't have to do all the complex mumbo

@JoeMerrick SV are OLD NEWS, this is a brand new game. They should do BETTER with each release, even more so seeing as how this even even a REAL game and contains no single player aspects to it. They had the time, they had the resources. They made a CHOICE.

I think most people aren't aware or skip over the fact that they will add eviolite users into Champions later on. For now, Reg M-A will just be a unique meta with megas and no eviolite users, people will find archetypes to build around. Nothing is lost.
