Seems to be Spain.Since we got a mainline title this year I wasn't expecting Gen 9 till 2023 but whatever. Anyone have an idea what country the new region is based on?
I was really hoping for another region bas d on part of the United States like Unova but I can work with SpainSeems to be Spain.
The question is... will he actually heal us this time or will he pester us to find ingredients instead?I for 1 am glad to see Donald Duck realize his dream of becoming a pokemon.
I would love a viking setting Pokemon world. Maybe similar to How to Train Your Dragon.I would REALLY like to see a Pokemon game in another historical period of the past. Imagine: Pokémon in the ancient Egypt or a Viking setting
In the mainline games, yeah. In Legends Arceus, no, and it’s great.Sheesh. Gen 9 already? I still haven't bought a Switch or Legends Arceus yet. I have fallen so far behind in Pokemon. Are TM's still a thing you kids use?
Yes TMs are still a thing, but TRs (Technical records) were introduced in Sword and Shield. TMs never break (except in the gen IV remakes to be "faithful to the original) but TRs do. The main difference is that the records often have pretty op moves on them like swords dance or psyshock).Sheesh. Gen 9 already? I still haven't bought a Switch or Legends Arceus yet.

TMs aren't that bad Oracle Spockanort, at least when they're infinite use like in Sword and Shield. I personally loved what they did with Technical Records in Sword and shield. If they're going to rest on their laurels with breaking discs upon use, why not give the best of both worlds?In the mainline games, yeah. In Legends Arceus, no, and it’s great.
Having a starter with two starter types would mess with the Rock Paper Scissors system of weakness and effectivesYes TMs are still a thing, but TRs (Technical records) were introduced in Sword and Shield.

So much for the next generation being India like a lot of people predicted, still haven't seen where Copperajah and Gumshoos originate.
Also anyone want to take bets on what types the final evolutions of the starters will be?
I'm guessing Grass/Poison lynx (like poison ivy)
FIre/grass for the gator (it could either be based off a chilli pepper or an apple, which warrants grass)
and water/flying or MAYBE water/steel for the duck
Don’t all starters these days have two typesHaving a starter with two starter types would mess with the Rock Paper Scissors system of weakness and effectives
Hasn't stopped them from breaking their own pre-established mold. Remember when Gen 6 was revealed and people thought Fennekin was going to be fire/fighting again and it clearly wasn't? Besides The gen IV starters broke the mold by having them be effective against each other (Infernape's fighting moves can hit Empoleon super effectively because of steel, and Torterra can hit Infernape with ground moves). The predicted types I provided function similarly to the gen IV starters, the lynx can fight the gator with super effective poison moves, as can the duck if it's a flying type. Yet the lynx can still be effective against the duck with poison moves if it isn't a steel type, but water/flying.Having a starter with two starter types would mess with the Rock Paper Scissors system of weakness and effectives
Yeah I know. But the final evolutions are a dual type that usually isn’t the same type as anotherDon’t all starters these days have two types
He’s talking about their final evolutions btw
I didn’t realize that was the point behind dual type final evolutions. I guess that works. I just want to make sure everybody doesn’t just pick one starter Over the others due to competitive advantagesHasn't stopped them from breaking their own pre-established mold.

TR's? You whipper snappers. Back in my day TM's broke once you taught a Pokemon that move, and we liked it! It built character (Even though I played Gen 5 and 6 were TM's also didn't break)Yes TMs are still a thing, but TRs (Technical records) were introduced in Sword and Shield.

More generic than Sun and Moon's protagonist? whose doofy unexpressive face graces the screen even during very dire moments and walks as though he has a stick up his rectum? give them time (which they don't have a lot of if it's going to be released this year, just saying).TR's?

I have to say though, the mainline playable characters if that is them look kinda generic compared to previous mainline Pokemon protagonist. I guess with customization being a thing Game Freak isn't even gonna try. Shame, I was hoping for some memes like with Gloria during the early days of Gen 8 with her Scottish accent and bagpipes XD
Hey! I actually liked the Sun and Moon kids. At least their early designs. How could you not like the girl's weird chicken/glove hat? That too was meme worthy, not as much as Gloria but pretty memorable. But truthfully I didn't actually play the Sun and Moon games, but I liked that weird chicken hat in a Hawaiian setting. Her hair must have been sweaty though. Ultra Sun and Moon made her more genericGreninja wants to know your location
But yes, usually if a starter has a secondary type that is largely considered superior to the others, the other two will often learn moves to compensate for it (empoleon can also learn a lot of flying type moves to deal super effective damage to the other two starters). Sometimes it's like gen 6 where each starter's types are super effective against one in the traditional rock paper sense (fire/psychic is strong against grass/fighting, which is strong against water/dark, though water/dark is immune to psychic because of the secondary typing) But there will always be one starter that more people choose over another, and we have gen 6 to thank for it with Greninja being an excellent mon with good STAB, stats and and overpowered ability in protean (or battle bond for those who received the special greninja for gen 7.
