    Kamikoto, as well as Established Titles (probably the one that got cut), are commercial advertising scams. The creator of both businesses is a Norwegian business man operating out of Hong Kong who has made a bunch companies of the same quality. Look up “Established Titles scam” and the top result will be a good explanation.

    The worst part about Scarlet and Violet is that, while I’m playing it, it’s genuinely some of the most fun I’ve had with the series in years. The zones are fun to explore, customization is cool, the Pokémon are interesting to use in battle and catch, gym battles and other story-based events are actually kinda challenging if you don’t funnel all your EXP into one set party, and the characters are actually well written and likable. But all of this is tremendously offset by how poorly the game performs and how buggy it is. Instead of 1 step forward and two steps back, I’d say it’s closer to 3 steps forward and 4 steps back. I’m having heaps of more fun with this than I ever did with SwSh, but if you can’t look past the bugs and glitches and stuff like that then it’s an awful game

      Nah people need to start giving some credit man. The music was phenomenal the whole way through, actually like-able characters, actually cranked up the difficulty and they made the game open world for gods sake. The performance is terrible but besides that and the awful battle animations I’d say this game is like 5 steps forward 2 steps back.

      @@bobbyzeitgeist1842 that’s what I feel like too honestly, for me my copy of the game has been relatively stable with some slowdown but not much to detract from the experience. A testament to how much I like the new systems put in place are that it allowed me to very easily spot and catch a shiny Skiddo (I named her Mayo and she’s as cute as a button) because you can see every Pokémon on the overworld. I’m also enjoying discovering things that my friends who are ahead of me in the game haven’t seen and probably would not see if I hadn’t told them, like all the interactions you can have with professors at the Academy, the results of which I still don’t know and can’t wait to find out. I’m lucky in that I’m able to enjoy the game at those 3 steps forward, but I completely understand and even support the views of those that refuse to buy the game because of how poorly it runs.

    I absolutely love the franchise, love it to death, I just really wish they did better. GameFreak seems to never take feedback and they don't give themselves time to breathe. I don't need a major release every single year. If you're gonna make it a speedy release give it an extra two years to fully develop it.

    It's 'open world'... Except nothing has level scaling. So you'll still end up following some type of determined path, because otherwise you'll end up getting your ass kicked.
    Compare to Pokemon ROWE, where everything is level scaled. The more badges you have, the higher things scale up. Wild encounters, trainers, gym leaders. And once level scaling goes past where a pokemon can evolve, you'll have a chance to start encountering it's evolved form instead.

    That Coca Cola analogy was honestly so spot-on. Personally, I’m not super against the game, as watching streams of it is pretty relaxing, but I one-hundred percent recognize the flaws and am so glad that the streamers I watch do, too. It is really broken. I do appreciate the changes that allow the multiplayer, which works well with the whole breeding mechanic so that you can work with others to get the other starters. Definitely just an incentive to get friend groups to buy it together so that they can complete the Pokédex, but it’s still kind of cool. Other than that, it’s very bland and broken. If they refined and fixed the issues, I’d think it would be a pretty good game, but definitely nowhere near God of War Ragnorak; not even close.

The story and gameplay were at least fun for the most part, and I'm not ashamed at all to say that I'd gladly play S/V in its half-baked state over Sw/Sh any day of the week.
      "It was fun though so everything you say has no merit!" is a blatant strawman. Most people I've seen also note the technical issues.

    They're a western owned company that makes the knives in China before shipping them at a high price.

    Like many, I'll always love the pokemon franchise. It just hurts to no end, seeing how the 5 best selling games in the franchise are the last four, which were all utter garbage, then Red/Blue. Once I saw that Scarlet and Violet was the biggest console exclusive launch of all time, I knew Game Freak no longer has the incentive, drive, nor care in the world to make good games.
    Edit: yall need to stop defending these games. Performance issues aside, the story is trash, except for the last hour. The world is empty and over half of the pokedex is missing. 2/3 of Paldea is the same biome, grassland, and the soundtrack is abysmal compared to everything Go Ichinose did. And no, I don't think Red/Blue are good either. But at least they really pushed the GameBoy to its limit and showed genuine passion through making the game.

Meaning I haven't touched Pokemon since 2007, so getting a new Pokemon game on a new Switch console was exciting to me at the time. But it's been a few years since then, I've since completed the game and the dlc, and not touching Violet even though I was going to get that one.

And they wouldn't be able to pull off a cutesy pixel art game for the Switch like they dod with the DS. People have higher expectations for the Switch and pixel art just doesn't sell as well as 3D, sadly. There's also the fact that they are extremely incompetent in terms of optimizing and coding in general. I'm sure we've all seen how this game cries in existential horror the minute you have too many models walking around on the N64 floor. This isn't just a time crunch thing too, look it up, they have made baffling decisions like having multiple Lillie models of different sizes for different cutscenes instead of just reusing one and them being incapable of porting over certain Sword and Shield customization options, rendering the customization in this new game basically nonexistent.

      We _are_ the testers. That’s what the Pokemon Community refuses to understand. Day One-ers and people who preorder games are a big part of this problem because GF has no incentive to make the game halfway decent on launch when they’ve already made their money back in spades long before the community realizes the game doesn’t even run properly. Then they look to the player base to provide the bug reports; this practice is obviously _much_ cheaper than hiring beta testers.
      This isn’t exclusive to Pokemon. Many developers are taking advantage of this, especially nowadays with the growing number of people who seem to accept games not being fully operational Day One as a fact of life, which is BS. Games pre-digital era were never perfect and there are always exceptions to the rules, but most of them were, in fact, published in their entirety on Day One.

The graphics, performance, lack of depth in general is downright embarrassing and pathetic, from the largest selling media franchise (Pokémon) ever.

    My parents let me have 1 soda every Friday since I was six, which was a great decision because it allowed me to enjoy sugary drinks, but also taught me to be healthy and have restraint

    Kamikoto is not one of the brands that were with established titles?

      They are, which makes it’s so much weirder that they would cut out the established titles section and not the kamikoto section

    100 percent with you guys on the Soda/Cola for kids, my daughter is almost 7 and hates soda because we've convinced her it's spicy. I figure by the time she's old enough to figure out carbonation, she'll be old enough to make her own nutritional decisions.

    So I know this is in the context of talking about alto pedophila, but I’d just like to point out that little space is not just an alto pedophillia thing. Little space can also happen when someone is sexually abused as a child, and it’s kind of their way of coping with it. Stuff like age regression is also little space, but I’d argue that that isn’t alto pedophilia

    When this podcast started I came here for Charlie. These days I come for Andrew.

      Andrew is the most annoying one by far unfortunately. When he has a gripe he won't stfu about it for 40 min and everything he says is fact.

    My two cents. Scarlet and Violet, though broken and unpolished are still giving us bigger and more content then most pervious entries. Halo, from what I've seen, is giving us less than previous entries and is somewhat broken.

    Kids shouldn’t drink soda until 13? Yeah that dude isn’t a parent. You can’t avoid it. Birthday parties, kids going to friends houses, ect. It’s not the end of the world (btw I don’t drink soda and my daughter rarely does by her own choice)

    • @JamesThePokemonHunter

      He's like crazy imo. Just having the worse takes ever. Ban soda till your 13. Ban fursuits and shit in public because it's definitely a kink for furries to exist. let's talk about pedos every 10 seconds and act like it's normal to do that lol

    Pokemon already has a subscription in Pokemon home which lets you transfer Pokemon from other games, many of which are trapped and will disappear unless you pay $25 a year and you just have to hope they'll get in a future game

    I believe the reason the new pokemon game is selling so well is because they changed the format. In the new one you don't have to stick to the linear path of fighting the gym leaders and become the champion. You can choose your own playstyle. At least that's what the trailer was suggesting.
