Why Pokémon Games Are Formulaic and Unfinished

While the Pokemon Franchise seems the same it has slowly changed over the 20+ years that it has been running. If you have a problem with the Pokemon mainline games, it likely comes down to one change that has happened slowly over the years that the companies have been working on the series. The Pokemon Brand isn't about the games anymore.

I am gonna be happy to say things like "I was here at 20 subs" When your channel gets as big as it deserves to be.

[@SethHaskell]

I'm glad you like the channel, thanks for the kind words!

[@KnightNWreckz]

Man did I love that surfing pikachu mini game. I'm sad that they didn't either take the time they needed to truly finish the game or hire a bunch of new people to finish it on time.

[@SethHaskell]

The one in Pokemon Yellow?

[@KnightNWreckz]

@@SethHaskell Surfing game in yellow yes. Unfinished comment was about sword and shield. Sorry for lack of clear comment, lol.

[@SethHaskell]

No worries, I understand you now. 😁

[@nuclearbeeberman]

dude content wise a really good video. as constructive feedback, try to not read your script so obvious from your monitor :).

[@SethHaskell]

Noted, I will try to improve on that. Thanks for the feedback.

[@user-oy7sh9uy2b]

It was kinda depressing watching this video but you are right.

[@SethHaskell]

I knew that something had changed, but it took me a long time to figure it out. It is a bummer but I would rather know then keep thinking about it.

[@SethHaskell]

For happier video check the next one on Pokemon Red and Blue. 😁
