I think the one thing that might keep it in check is the fact that, unless you have team support to heal the Shed Tail user, you can only use it once a match. They also want multi hit attacks to be a bit more useful with the loaded dice item, and they want counters to setup with the Mirror Herb.New move to put on the suspect list for immediately OP additions:
Shed Tail - creates a Substitute and then switches out for another pokemon.

Might. This might still be super busted. Imagine it with proper wish support? Or on a Pokémon with Regenerator or Recover? If Slowbro get this move it will be fucking insane.
better this way. no free coverageDid they just basically remade Hidden Power but exclusively for the new gimmick?
In the trailer, Shed Tail takes 50% of Cyclizar's health, more than the usual Substitute.Doesn't substitute require 25% of the maximum health? They can use it up to three times per battle if no other damage is taken, discounting healing.

You mean how the motorcycle lizard is probably the prevo of the cover legendaries?What a weird Pokemon design. I like it but it's another lizard with a wheel like body part.
I feel like I'm missing something lmao.
they're showing this off in VGC singlesssuming singles is even playable on cart this time
I'm aware, I don't care for 3v3 singles or whatever weird formats they have on cart. SwSh had stupidly long animations + it fucked up the timer which basically killed off the "unofficial" singles scene on cart and made Showdown the default for most properly competitive singles play again, there's a reason there's basically no Youtube videos about singles on wifi with a following and why draft leagues died and stuff.they're showing this off in VGC singles

Is it a legendary?Cyclizar looks cool. Best legendaries in a little while
It def related to the box legendaries yeah? I assume it's like nebby.Is it a legendary?
NEW POKEMON TRAILER HYPEEEEEEEEEEE
THE GENIUSES AT GAMEFREAK HAVE DONE IT AGAIN
Huh that's pretty cool.It def related to the box legendaries yeah? I assume it's like nebby.
Yeah, which I think it'll be pretty broken. This video makes it look like a Z-move that's always STAB that can get boosted by an item + it gives you angles for defensive play too. I'm gonna assume you can only do this once per match for now though.Wait.....was Breloom using both an item and the new gimmick???
If the idea that this is a preevolution of the box legendary Pokémon holds through and they're Dragon/another type, then it's kind of a neat way to show that it changes in the future.I do not like this trend of adding Normal typing to pokémon. You'd think having ghost immunity is useful but you end up getting your ass kicked by fighting types.
Pokémon website says "You can Terastallize a Pokémon once per battle, and the transformation will last until the battle ends." But the loaded dice? I assume that isn't a one use item, given that it boosts likelihood.Yeah, which I think it'll be pretty broken.

What's the problem?the camera cuts for bullet seed makes me worried they didn't fix the problem with multihit moves

I wonder if it's to make it obvious what's happening because there would be little children playing thismove animation plays

it's been faster than the past but it's still needlessly slow. that describes a lot of the combat system
that's Game Freak's MO, but they go too far and stuff the game with a plodding pace. you don't need redundant text boxes and animations and whatnot. all 4 pokemon on the field during grassy terrain don't need to heal 1 at a time. pokemon whom are burned/poisoned don't need to be shown one at a time.I wonder if it's to make it obvious what's happening because there would be little children playing this
So one thing we still haven't had revealed that was in the leaks might relate to Cyclizar, right?
The whole "past and future versions of Pokemon" thing. Cyclizar could be the pre-evo of the box legends, of course, but it also might have the thing that Koraidon is the past version and Miraidon is the future version

for worlds closing ceremony. as well as a teaser for the trading card game formatNew trailer over the weekend?! God this looks great. Love the new mon.
Yes.
I'm kind of surprised they haven't shown anything about that yet. I guess it'll probably be the next big trailer.
Part of me wonders if massive chunks of the game leaking is gonna make TPC go sicko mode and just reveal (almost) everything themselves. Seeing someone spell out so much over 3 months away from release must be crushing as a marketer
they can't just show the thing?
I don't know, to me reveals shrouded in mystery are more fun. They did the same thing for Hisuian Zoroark in PLA.they can't just show the thing?
