Despite the both of them being Pomeranians, they don’t actually look anything alike. Which tells me they likely didn’t steal Cassette Beasts’ homework here. Pomeranians aren’t exactly unpopular dogs, so it’s not even a little surprising Pokemon (a game with several other dog breeds) is adding one. It’s also where the both of them derive their names.
Though Pombomb is a significantly better name than Pombon.
I actually don’t think they would use AI for creature design. That’s like, their whole shtick at this point (I certainly don’t think anybody’s buying the games for the story), and I think Nintendo is smart enough not to risk the most important aspect of their games. I don’t think the starters even look that bad (aside from the bird) nor AI generated (including the bird). That said, I don’t doubt they’d use AI in almost any other aspect of the game.
Admittedly I haven’t seen any news about the game in like 2 months though, so I could be missing something.
All my friends have been busy with their fancy shmancy Tomodachi Life 2
Same! I was up playing friendslop games (lethal company) with like 5 friends, one of them mentioned it came out and immediately hopped off to play it, and we quickly lost 2 more.
I wish Halo 2 had the time it needed to cook back when it first came out. This is likely a very hot take, but I’d probably rate it below 4 just because of how rushed and unbalanced it has always felt to me. Like the lack of weapons (what kind of halo game doesn’t have the assault rifle???) and sniper jackals one-shotting you the millisecond you peek a corner in legendary.
I wanted it so bad that I eventually learned how to “mod” the xbox 360. I don’t remember at all what I did, but I could import worlds from the internet into the game using a flash drive. It wasn’t as cool as having mods, but it did allow me to play some adventure maps and giant redstone contraptions (some even worked!), which were another thing I was super envious of.
I don’t know many classic mod packs, but I’m almost afraid to touch any classic Minecraft mods because I worry reality will ruin my nostalgia for them. When I was a kid, I used to watch people playing with mods that I never could because my computer was a potato and I had to play MC on the Xbox 360. I was sooooo envious, but I still got some good memories of watching others play. I think Fossils and Archaeology is probably the biggest one for me.
Love that last screenshot lol. Doing the reverse dolphin like that probably isn’t very good for your back.
Seriously. And they didn’t even bother to censor the C word. Truly despicable behavior.
OP, you upload AI slop and crop out artists names every time you post. If you want a community that appreciates your actions, you could not be further from that place. I’m glad you feel unwelcome here, because to many of us, you are. Please go back to reddit.
Nah, I think Z-A megas as a whole get too much hate. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot of stinkers, but many of them genuinely look good, certainly no worse than other megas. Absol Z, Chandelure, Chesnaught, Delphox, Dragalge, Emboar, Falinks, Golisopod, Magearna, Meowstic, Scolipede, & Scrafty… plus Golurk & Skarmory, which you said look bad. I think ALL of these look good. Some of them I’d even call great.
A lot of the others suffer from trying too hard to fit some theme that doesn’t actually look good in the game. Like Raichu X and Y are intended to be shaped like an X and a Y (though I don’t hate the Y form). Feraligatr looks like a Totodile when its mouth closes. Dragonite is supposed to resemble the pre-evolutions with the wings, while also being a reference to an angel. Notably, most of these look pretty good in their concept art, but translate terribly into the actual flat-colored 3D game.
