The phrase "No news is good news" works here. I can't tell ya how many times people complain about leaks about either Pokemon or Nintendo when its that season.
Maybe there will be an announcement at the Championships, maybe not. Just gotta enjoy the silence until something comes up.
no sure i would agree lol. for me it is like silence is suspicious... very very suspicious.
@@PokemonPondcast it could be like how last year and this year were for the mario rpg fans: smrpg in november '23, ttyd in may '24, and now a mario and luigi rpg in november '24? maybe they'll bombard you guys with mon games again. bdsp came out november '21, legends arceus was january '22, and sv came out november '22 afterwards. and after the conclusion of dlc back in '23 at the end that year, i think TPC is cooking something.
@@corvusblackfeather456 i think i just heard my wallet scream in bloody terror.
welcome to 2 July 2024 and no new news
Yup! nothing, nada, zero, zilch.
july 4th... barren
Pokémon was being criticize A LOT since Ultra Sun/Moon because everything seems rushed. People were begging that GF had more time to do a better game.
The silence is great news. The Problem is... the Pokémon comunity is spoiled AF with game (or DLCs) every single year. Now people needs to chill and wait for the best.
You aren't wrong about some more vocal people in the community.
I (Draco) come from a time where if a game was going to take a year , we would still get some updates on a monthly basis (sometimes once every 2 months) . These little teases kept the intrigue going while the game was being developed. It feels like ever since TPCI stopped using Coro Coro as a main outlet, they have been out of step on how to drop news.
I just find it interesting that so many people complain about yearly releases and lack of quality in pokemon. But now that you have to wait longer you cant handle it well. Its only been 5 months since legends z-a was announced. You want a botw level pokemon game, you gotta wait botw time. You're just gonna have to play other games for now
It isn't about the release wait, it is about the lack of any info. I am ok waiting a year or 2 in fact. I waited YEARS for Starfield to which i had the same complaints as i do with Elder Scrolls. I used to get my info from monthly magazines if I was lucky and even then it was just a little tease on info. That is the complaint. There is nothing. No tease, not out of context images. Not even a pencil sketch of a map to keep hype and interest going.
@@PokemonPondcastthey don’t have to publish anything every month. We’re now waiting for persona 6 for example and they won’t say a thing for months and I don’t go crazy over that
you are right, they don't have to, and this isn't the first time they have used this "no news" strategy.
Thing is, people aren't "going crazy" over having to wait, but a little bit of a drip feed would be nice. Just something small to give us something to talk about while we wait for a proper trailer.
ai art lol
yes... yes we do. but only till we can get monetized and hire an actual artist.
Did you really have to use AI art?
yes. we don't have money to pay for an artist.
@@PokemonPondcast I mean couldn't you have just made a thumbnail in gimp?
The issue isn't programs, it is time and skill set. We lack someone with the proper skillset to design good thumbnails, and frankly don't have any extra time to attempt something I (Draco) would be satisfied with. for context, video takes most of my weekly free time to edit, add visuals, and render.
