JFC. Of course they don't add the entire roster to a battle simulator

Yeah, it's like impossible for there to be any good Pokemon game released today.

They just keep throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks.

Wasn't pokopia the highest reviewed pokemon game of all time? Like it's a carbon copy of dragon quest builders 2 from what I've heard, but

I don't know, but I definitely don't care about reviews in 2026.

I mean it's not a carbon copy of Dragon Quest Builders 2, but it's made by the same team/company and has obvious overlap. They definitely took DQB2 as a starting point and made it Pokemon themed.

Everything (except Legends games) after SuMo and their ultra versions was a mistake consumer disservice.

Pokemon finally makes battle focused game.

(Implying with this meme that Pokemon has now reason to takedown Pokemon Showdown not that it would be better version if it)
