I was just thinking, it would be even cooler for open world if there was more than 8 gyms. In the original pokemon anime, they mentioned that there were more than 8 gyms but you only needed to collect 8 to go to the pokemon league. If they had more than 8 gyms, and you could choose which 8 to do, that would increase the replayability.
This is what I've been thinking for quite some time. Make every gym for every type but only require 8 badges to be eligible to fight E4 and the champion. This will also reinforce the exploration theme. I think this will sound like botw where you didn't need to complete every single shrine to be strong enough to pull out the Master Sword.
@@nnightkingj While this is correct, this isn't at the same time. That's not how he got his badges. If you look at his badges he only has 3 (this could be 2) badges from Kanto. He had gotten 7 (Possibly 8) badges that weren't from any of the gym leaders we know about.
@@nnightkingj This has long been proven. In the X and Y series, there's an episode where Ash and I forgot the name of the Sceptile trainer showed each other their badges. There are badges there that are not available in the XY games.

@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Your telling people in the comments of a Pokémon video to repent? Don’t you think there are other TH-cam videos with comment sections filled with degeneracy that could use some repenting? I think we are good in this corner of the internet but appreciate your concern. Cheers 👍
@@donovanjoseph737 i don't think that will happen. I'm sure they will only show you yours. like in the trailer, we don't see the hyperbeam montage just the effect.
I like the idea of having three different stories to follow. the first one being the gym challenge. The second one seems to be the treasure hunt. And the third one might be the regional evil team. And I like that you can do them all at once one at a time or switch back-and-forth between them
@@slackjaw2643 it depends on how they do it in these. You’re right, but you have to follow the story and timeline that the game wants you to do. Hopefully this is truly pick and choose.
Going off Mr. K's leaks, it's probably the past and future stories of Paldea. Mr. K was the one who posted photos of, among other things, the Terastal Phenomenon, Penny, and Grusha. Kotaku even did an article on it. "Paldean Wooper" is probably "Future Paldean Wooper," going off its description.
I gotta admit I was very very sceptical, but I am very happy to see they expand on features like playing with friends and open world. Also love that they FINALLY let us walk our own route, and decide which gyms to take on. This is a great step towards the future of pokemon.
this is not a great step, the game looks completely dull and lifeless. The series continues to lose more and more of it's original charm with every release.
Here’s some explanation for those who’re interested. Paldea comes from the Spanish word “aldea” which means village or hamlet, and the p is either for Pokémon or “pals”. Cetitan gets its name from titan and cetaceans, the scientific term for whales and porpoises. And finally terastilization likely comes from the Spanish word “terraustral”, which means earthbound, which does kinda go along with the crystalized motif.
I think Koraidon's frontal fur is not supposed to be a wheel. It's just there to resemble one. Since it's an organic pokemon and not a mechanical one, that can't really rotate like a wheel since it doesn't have a hub.
Facing the Gym Challenge in any order you choose is what I am looking forward to the most. Feel like this will change the way you play the game entirely!
@@eltornado7777 i dont know, man. i think all the games are good in their own way. been playing since Leaf Green/Fire Red and Emerald. I think it's pretty clear they're setting the stage to make Pokemon a fully open world game. I think the main thing that holds these games back is the hardware capabilities of the switch. If Pokemon was released on all platforms, these games would be #1 in the world.. probably.
Cetitan is so dang weird, definitely the most unique Gen 9 'Mon we've seen so far! Slush Rush and Thick Fat are great Abilities as well, hoping they can see some play with perhaps a Tera Steel Form! I do sincerely wonder if they'll have a dolphin pre-evo. Also, how is nobody talking about 3:29? We got a dumb photo mode!!!!!! I love stuff like that! Alola Photo Club 2 baybeeeeeee!!!!!
@@mattc236 Not really considering one of the themes being past and future so Koraidon havibg a primitive aspect with traditional tires and scales makes sense. With Koraidon, they're futuresque with electricity shooting out and bring machine/technological like, symbolizing the presumed future.
Well at least they're willing to make videos on Scarlet and Violet again! 2 months of nothing, and 3 months until the game releases! It's madness! We should get a lot more info soon
@@Seismitoad3 Disagree. I think they're trying to keep most of it like a surprise like they did with SwSh (before the entire dex leaked). I wouldn't be shocked if this is the last update we get.
Dang, a Recap. I thought we were getting some more information already. But the game looks pretty impressive and I am very excited! these games look like they will be better and more fun than SWSH were
I wouldn’t mind Koraidon running and not using wheels if his tail was flowing behind him like an animal but because it’s a second wheel it looks really weird just dangling between his legs I wish it was like Miraidon. Like go all in with it’s crazy design
Maybe it’s because i haven’t played a full fledge game in ages but i am honestly so hyped for scarlet and violet, i love the character designs, the storyline’s have a whole bunch of potential, the pokémon that we’ve seen so far are great, sprigatito is perhaps my favourite starter designed ever and while i’m not rlly used or bothered by raids or the strengthening gimmick this year round, i am still very excited for multiplayer
Instead of these crystal things of other gimmicks, I really wish they just stood with mega evolutions and continued to make more cool forms for pokemon. That was such a cool concept and created some amazing looking pokemon. These crystal crowns all look the same :(
Im saddened by your comment, I also love mega evolution but I also love that they bring a new gimmic every time like z moves, dynamaxing, gigantimaxing, strength /agility moves and noble Pokémon, I actually LOVE these crystal forms, they’re unique and I really like the shandlier above their heads, can’t wait to hunt for terastilize form with different types, not to mention if mega evolution was introduced over and over, I think all the new Pokémon games should have mega evolution as a standard and then a new gimmic as well
Good point. I miss gimmicks. They are cool. I thought dynamaxing was great in the Galar games. It was a happy mix of mega evolution and Z moves. Pokemon get big, and some change forms like mega evolution. They also make big attacks like Z moves. I thought this was great at least from a spectacle standpoint. There are kaiju Pokemon nuking each other. Awesome. The new crystal gimmick is cool too. Maybe in the future there can be a gimmick of crystallized kaiju Pokemon nuking each other. One can definitely hope.
There isn't any level scaling. From the website "There is no set path to the Gyms. You can purposefully seek out a stronger Gym Leader" and confirmed by leakers with the beta version weeks ago.
@@randomnessocity Your pokemon have levels and stats which are based on their level, so how does that come in to play in these battles? Is a level 10 arcanine the same as level 50? Do these gyms just have pokemon with set stats or increased HP? What determines what a "stronger Gym Leader" means?
@@Bradbradhehe I'm not even sure what you're trying to ask. Brock is an early gym leader with a level 12 and a level 14 pokemon, meanwhile Giovanni has a team of 5 with levels between 42 and 50. I assume, based on the wording and what the leaks have said, you can go fight the level 40+ gym leader in this game first and then go back and crush the lower level gym leaders after. We can assume that the levels, stats, number of pokemon, etc. do not change in weaker gyms because there is no scaling.
I think someone already said this but but would be cool if the levels of tye gyms scaled with how many badges you have and it would change thier team depending on how many badges you have so you can truly pick which one to do first
I’m hoping for some character customization like hair and accessories. I’m not a big fan of the school uniform but I like the independent study concept.
Well if we’re restricted to school uniforms (I’m hoping for post-game clothing options), I’m glad there’s more variety in eyes and mouths, alongside hairstyles and skin color.
If you look at 3:29 they are wearing different outfits, jackets, hats and all sorts. So there will be clothes stores for sure, they would be FOOLISH to remove something like that when they've working so hard to make changes in the right direction.
I am hoping in vain that one of the possible "stories" involves Contests, but then I'm also probably one of a handful of people that would absolutely buy a game completely focused on pokemon contests, albeit more in-depth. Also hoping Banette is one of the available pokemon, because I just want my beloved spooky doll to be in my team =C
I've always liked contests in the anime; it looks like so much more challenging having to combine beauty and brawn to make your partner look INCREDIBLE in battle.
The only thing I'm not really crazy about is the Terastal mechanic. The idea is interesting (kind of like Hidden Power with a few buffs), but the visuals that go with it aren't doing it for me. They just get a crown and an overcoat of crystal, and that's it. The area where you fight raids look pretty cool, though.
Terastallization is for evry pokemon, so of course they can't give every pokemon some grandiose and bombastic design like the megas or gigantamax. Think dynamax, where each one just got bigger, but this has some more style in it!
I'm really curious to see an in depth video on character customization options. One of my favorite things from previous games was clothing options, and I'm not really seeing that in any of the ads.
Hopefully. The customization options can be changed during gameplay. Splatoon did it and it really works well. I don’t know why Pokémon hasn’t done that yet?
I'm still hoping in a couple of months of what Sprigatito🌿, Fuecoco🔥 and Quaxly💧 will look like in their middle and final evolved forms in their Tera Type.
I know people have gripes with koraidons wheels not moving, but I think the idea here is that both the legendaries are trying to mimmick a motercycle in their own way. Miraidon being a robot can do it no problem while koraidon probably only can mimic the look but not the actual function
We really did not need another gimmick clone of mega evolution in battling. What we really needed is a variety of difficulty options so people that are long time fans have a challenge when playing this game. Also another battle frontier would definitely make me more interested in this game
Nonono, you heard the designers. Apparently we don't want a game that requires thought or provides challenge. Also, we apparently want EXP share to be mandatory.
Kanto, Johto, Honnen, and Shinnoh regions were all based in Japan Unova region was based in America Kalos region based in France Alola Region was based in Hawaii Galar Region was based in UK/Scotland And the Paldea region is based in Spain and Portugal. I love how each region is based on a different culture😊
I’m so pumped for the Paldea region. One thing I love is that we have an Open World in the Core Series. However, what I’m most excited about is that Miraidon & Koraidon are MOTORCYCLE DRAGONS!!! Most of all I love that this game decides that you can chose your own story.
@@samus88 Seeing how past and future seem to be a recurring theme throughout all of this, tell me; did motorcycles exist that far in the past? Of course not; the "wheels" are a stylistic choice while it runs like a primal creature.
@@goldenpimpernell9269 I understand that theme. Just don't give it wheels then. It's dumb, mate. Nothing you say will change that. The other pokemon has wheels... and uses it.
I absolutely love the reworked textures. Pokémon actually look like they have fur or scales and some look Metallic like Scizor. A lot of people's big complaint with the 3D models was that they looked flat and not alive. This addresses that and I hope Gamefreak keeps listening to the fans!
I’m exited for this new region. I think this may be the first Pokémon game where the legendary is found at the start of the game, rather than at the end of the game.
The Paldea is definitely going to be a favorite map of mine. Can't wait to challenge the Paldea Gyms and explore the giant Paldea Region with my friends. Also, gonna challenge Grusha's gym first his design is pretty cool.
Pretty sure Grusha is a woman, correct me If I'm wrong. Also, she's pretty far away, so I'll personally be waiting till last for her :) Edit: He's a man!!!
I didn’t think people would take so much issue with Koraidon‘s “wheels” not being used like Miraidon’s wheels, so I want to mention two things. The website mentions it’s “wheel” is used as a floatation device when swimming and not for driving like Miraidon. I also speculate that it will help it climb up mountains seeing the spikes on it and the conformation of climbing in the game.
They are unnecessary, sorry If they are for swimming it would basically helplessly drown as they are on his belly but will float up, so his back is under water...
5:57 Narrator: "We've kept all the things you love about Pokemon, while evolving the adventure you can have in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet." Me: Sad because no Mega Evolution and no National Dex
I don’t get why people don’t like koraidon just because the things on it’s chest and it’s tail don’t act as wheels. Personally it makes me love it more cuz it makes it look more derpy and funny when it runs in my opinion
A lot of lizard species have inflatable throat flaps or sacs for mating and/or territorial displays. It makes sense that a big lizard legendary would have an impressive throat sac. The fact that Miraidon's is used as a wheel and Koraidon isn't doesn't mean Koraidon is poorly designed, just that the people complaining never seen a lizard before.
And it makes sense because he is the opposite of Miraidon the futuristic one. Koraidon using its legs instead of “wheels” is almost like a Flintstones Reference 🤣
I’ve seen people equate it to how the Flintstones powered their vehicles with their feet, which is a great and charming comparison! When I first saw the Legendary Pokémon, I liked Koraidon the best. After this Pokémon Presents, I still do! Just need to see some version exclusives before I make the final choice! I always buy both games, but I have to decide which one gets played first! 😄
All nintendo had to do is make the red one hold the same position the violet one do. Hands on tires and tires spin. Since it move it seem more like a creature than a robot. Like toxic crock tall form with the ball on his chest.
When you think about it, koraidon and miraidon’s movements are similar to the ride pokemon in legends arceus. They can ride like wyrdeer, swim like basculegion, climb like sneasler, and glide like hisuian braviary. We don’t know if ursaluna’s ability will be part of koraidon and miraidon though.
🙏 Jesus Christ the son of God loves you all so much, come to Christ to be saved . Jesus wants to know you:) have a blessed day:)❤️🤍✝️hope to see u in heaven one day:)🙏 I love you have a blessed day❤️🙌✝️ Love u bro
I’m just glad to see my dudes Houndour and Houndoom coming back to bring the pain. And now that I’ve developed an unexplainable fondness for Alcremie, I want that little goof to make it into these games too. Also, for the love of god please show Raichu some love for once.
I hope we get the legends at the very beginning of the game. That’s what it’s looking like. It’s a very unique change that I’d love to see. Instead of only getting the legend in the dramatic end of the game when you’ve proven yourself worthy or something, you start your journey with them, growing closer together along your adventure. I also love that you can ride them
I doubt it. I bet you can’t actually battle with it until you reach the end of the game. Until then, they’ll probably be used solely for transportation.
@@t-real9054 that’s probably more likely, unfortunately. Still, it’d be really cool if we had them at the beginning of the game. Maybe we’d get them at lower levels and they only reach legendary strength when they get to higher levels? It’d just be cool if they felt more like your partner rather than the thing you get at the end of the game
The website implies that you can do the gyms in any order, but there's an actual proper order to do them in. I believe the solution should be that the pokemon in the wild, and the gyms, should scale based off of the number of badges obtained. This concept isn't foreign to gamefreak. In BDSP's underground the wild pokemon's encounters and levels changed based off badge. If this sort of system is implemented this game would truly feel like an open world game, in the "Champion rank story" sense at least.
It doesn't seem like scaling will took place. At least from the wording on the website it sounds like yes, you can do the gyms in any order but they have a set difficulty and leveling that's always the same
Hype!!!! Theres more to the story than just the gyms? I'm down. Love to see a lot of OG pokemon including new ones and open world ofc had me loving legends... just 3 more months
I like how people mention Klefki as if it's a weird thing to base a Pokemon on and then forget we had Pokemon based on magnets and eggs since the beginning.
I'm actually super excited about there being no set order to gyms. I HOPE this means the later ones we try are higher levels so it's always getting harder. This definitely looks like something I'd love to try out since I haven't played the last two entries in the series. Also the Pokédex being a library with books representing each entry is a lovely design.
no level scalling, X gym from Y town will always have the same level and pokemons, it's in the video "purposely fight STRONGER gyms first", that wording already confirms the leak.
Love this so much, really looking forward to a lot of gameplay even if the secondary plot lines inevitably require a dlc, really interested in the open world aspect and super excited for a more mega evolution style pokemon boost as opposed to z moves
While I'm not very impressed with the whole crystal gimmick, the open world and multiple storylines sound exciting. I'm also very fond of the motorcycle dragons. Koraidon's little bow movement at 0:32 reminds me of Toothless and it's very endearing.
This looks SO good! I am beyond excited Gyms in any order. You can RIDE the legendaries everywhere. Awesome character designs. Open world. THREE stories. CO-OP!! November needs to hurry up!
Oh my god I’m so excited for these games, just waiting to find out what the fossil Pokémon will be. Maybe a Baryonyx and Iguanodon? Concavenator or even Pelecanimimus?
Koraidon and Miraidon are like the Pokemon version of Transformers. :) And that Terastral mechanic, when the Pokemon use it, they look like crystal glass sculptures. :)
I really hope Starmie can have an evolution!!! Or that Staryu can have a NEW evolution! Maybe a new mutation. It would be so cool!! Staryu and Starmie are my favorites Pokemon ever and they deserve better!!!
I can't say with absolute certainty, but I'm like 99% sure the voice actress doing the voice over is Hilary Thomas, the same voice actress who voiced Anabel of the Battle Frontier back in the gen 3 anime. Tried finding credits attributed to her in the presentation and this video along with the other voice actors of the presentation just out of curiosity and interest, but I've been unable to find any credits at all confirming that is her. Anyone care to weigh in or point out credits somewhere I haven't thought to look/might have missed. Also Crystal Onix will now be real.
At 02:00 the voice over lady refers to the Pokemon professors, Sada and Turo as "research legends passed on"... So that kind makes me think that they're either dead or no longer the current pokemon professors If you analyze their appearances and names you'll see that their names are shortened words for the Spanish words for Past and Future respectively and their outfits are of that of a caveman and scientist.... So my personal theory is that through some accident or something : Prof. Sada was sent back into the past While Prof. Turo was sent well into the future And due to that inconvenience we won't actually get to meet them but instead receive some sort of video message from them some way, some how. That explains why we don't actually see any scenes of the trainer interacting with the Professors in the trailers like we do for Namona or clevell Just a theory.... A GAME THEORY!!!
Facing the gyms in any order you want is something that I’ve wanted for a long time and I’m so happy it’s finally happening And yet the game is also giving us to other story lines we can follow (my guess is that they’re about beating the evil team and completing the dex) This is just amazing, this setup absolutely encourages a lot of replayability
That's false advertisement at its finest. The gyms won't level-scale as you challeng them tho. So you literally cannot beat any gym in any order. There is going to be a "1st gym" and an "8th gym", based on the levels of the Pokemon found on them. Get real.
This makes me think like Breath of the wild where you have the 4 Divine Beast The game tells you to go to the Elephant 1st but we can choose which path we want first And overall most fans agrees too that the camel was the most hardest if tackled as someone's 1st boss We shall see what Pokemon did for the game.
@@samus88 I doubt they'd put in the effort to implement level scaling too but have they confirmed that there is no level-scaling? So far all the information I've heard has come from leaks.
I think Tera forms could be that perfect mix of mega evolution and gmax forms. The problem with Megas was they were often given to already over powered Pokémon. Once box art legendary Pokémon were allowed in VGC (which I always thought was stupid) it was game over. Everyone brought the same type of teams cause the same legendary Pokémon would be there. Z moves were nothing more than a fun power boost. Gmax was good cause everyone could get a power boost in dynamax but only some Pokémon could gigantanax and extra effects from certain moves like gmax wildfire handed out extra damage. But it was too short lasting only 3 turns you really had to be careful when you used it. This looks like the prefect mix. Everyone gets that extra boost like dmax but unless I'm looking at it wrong, only some Pokémon get the different Tera type like mega evolution and gigantanax. If this lasts all battle it's a win win.
Having no set path is going to open up so many new possibilities- you can actually feel like you're in the world of Pokémon as a character, instead of just a real person sitting in your home playing a video game
I think I read something on one of their news articles that implied that they weren't scaled based on your skill and that they had a set difficulty progression. So you're being allowed to take on stronger gyms first if you want, but there's still a more logical easiest-to-hardest order set in place that doesn't change any.
@@a.jdeets5527 basically, it's just that this time they aren't *technically* locked to force you to do them in that order. It actually could be kind of useful, taking the risk to do a slightly better gym could net you more experience in the early game, but as easy to level up it is in modern Pokémon games, there's not much point in grinding levels when exp share is way too effective. I wish they didn't remove the ability to turn it off
Although I’m still a little nervous about the graphics and difficulty, this genuinely looks much better than previous installments. The tera types look great and much more memorable than e.g gigantomax and im so excited for co-op and open world play! I just hope the open world doesn’t feel too cheap or empty
no their not, you can't really hold out hope for those to return, and personally im glad that mega's are gone cause honestly there was a number of mon's who definitely didn't need them
I’m curious on how the story will be affected online. Seems likely it will be unavailable to continue online though it would be fun to go through the game together. Have they dived into the capture mechanics yet?
I honestly really like the new twists on pokemon, since I’ve played the original games 93892028274848 billion times and this makes it exciting, different, yet familiar enough to love
I mean that’s how games evolve. Sword and shield was the first main line Pokémon game on a console. Sword and shield walked so this new game could run.
Apparently the have gone back to using the menu more again when leveling, and apparently you now have to run into pokemon again, and can't just grab your balls and lunge at them.
I was just thinking, it would be even cooler for open world if there was more than 8 gyms. In the original pokemon anime, they mentioned that there were more than 8 gyms but you only needed to collect 8 to go to the pokemon league. If they had more than 8 gyms, and you could choose which 8 to do, that would increase the replayability.
That's because kanto and johto region were right next to eachother and shared the same Pokémon league
This is what I've been thinking for quite some time. Make every gym for every type but only require 8 badges to be eligible to fight E4 and the champion. This will also reinforce the exploration theme.
I think this will sound like botw where you didn't need to complete every single shrine to be strong enough to pull out the Master Sword.
@@rifatbobos yeah, that would be awesome. Then way more fun to replay the game afterward.
@@nnightkingj While this is correct, this isn't at the same time. That's not how he got his badges. If you look at his badges he only has 3 (this could be 2) badges from Kanto. He had gotten 7 (Possibly 8) badges that weren't from any of the gym leaders we know about.

Nice attention to detail!
And the hardened gills making its head look like a skull and crossbones--poison typing

I like the idea of having three different stories to follow. the first one being the gym challenge. The second one seems to be the treasure hunt. And the third one might be the regional evil team.

@@goblin6914 that's your opinion dude. We, on the other hand, all love how it looks so far
Here’s some explanation for those who’re interested. Paldea comes from the Spanish word “aldea” which means village or hamlet, and the p is either for Pokémon or “pals”. Cetitan gets its name from titan and cetaceans, the scientific term for whales and porpoises. And finally terastilization likely comes from the Spanish word “terraustral”, which means earthbound, which does kinda go along with the crystalized motif.

Which means Rhydon, who can spin its horn when performing horn drill, is more advanced than Koraidon
The website confirms it acts as a flotation device.
You are thinking in a way like pokemon games follow logic with pokemon design haha. I chose scarlet BECAUSE it's derpy run animation lol
Yeah, it's more like an anole lizard's dewlap-it's an inflatable sac, not an actual wheel.
I was thinking that the frontal fur wheels were meant to provide traction when Koraidon is sprinting or climbing walls. You know, like tennis shoes.
Facing the Gym Challenge in any order you choose is what I am looking forward to the most. Feel like this will change the way you play the game entirely!
Was that confirmed at any point? I thought it was just something a lot of people want
@@ShaeTollefson yeah it's been confirmed you can take on the Gyms in any order

@@tk7977 Ditto

@@tk7977 doesn't change the fact that the recent games are mediocre & snowflakes can't accept criticism
@@eltornado7777 i dont know, man. i think all the games are good in their own way. been playing since Leaf Green/Fire Red and Emerald. I think it's pretty clear they're setting the stage to make Pokemon a fully open world game. I think the main thing that holds these games back is the hardware capabilities of the switch. If Pokemon was released on all platforms, these games would be #1 in the world.. probably.
Cetitan is so dang weird, definitely the most unique Gen 9 'Mon we've seen so far! Slush Rush and Thick Fat are great Abilities as well, hoping they can see some play with perhaps a Tera Steel Form! I do sincerely wonder if they'll have a dolphin pre-evo.

@@mattc236 Not really considering one of the themes being past and future so Koraidon havibg a primitive aspect with traditional tires and scales makes sense. With Koraidon, they're futuresque with electricity shooting out and bring machine/technological like, symbolizing the presumed future.

I wish it was like Miraidon. Like go all in with it’s crazy design
I cannot unsee Koraidon just having a massive ballsack
Saaame
Well, this isn't the final version as you can probably tell from 4:30 (top left corner).
They'll change it. I think
@@Xidphel considering the game isn't too far off, no. No, they won't.
Maybe it’s because i haven’t played a full fledge game in ages but i am honestly so hyped for scarlet and violet, i love the character designs, the storyline’s have a whole bunch of potential, the pokémon that we’ve seen so far are great, sprigatito is perhaps my favourite starter designed ever and while i’m not rlly used or bothered by raids or the strengthening gimmick this year round, i am still very excited for multiplayer
Instead of these crystal things of other gimmicks, I really wish they just stood with mega evolutions and continued to make more cool forms for pokemon. That was such a cool concept and created some amazing looking pokemon. These crystal crowns all look the same :(
I'm incredibly saddened by the crystals I loved what I was seeing till that, and yeah mega was the bomb.
Im saddened by your comment, I also love mega evolution but I also love that they bring a new gimmic every time like z moves, dynamaxing, gigantimaxing, strength /agility moves and noble Pokémon, I actually LOVE these crystal forms, they’re unique and I really like the shandlier above their heads, can’t wait to hunt for terastilize form with different types, not to mention if mega evolution was introduced over and over, I think all the new Pokémon games should have mega evolution as a standard and then a new gimmic as well
They are the same
Good point. I miss gimmicks. They are cool. I thought dynamaxing was great in the Galar games. It was a happy mix of mega evolution and Z moves. Pokemon get big, and some change forms like mega evolution. They also make big attacks like Z moves. I thought this was great at least from a spectacle standpoint. There are kaiju Pokemon nuking each other. Awesome. The new crystal gimmick is cool too. Maybe in the future there can be a gimmick of crystallized kaiju Pokemon nuking each other. One can definitely hope.
@@Antagonist115 I appreciate that comment helps me see it in a new light thank you
A non-linear pokemon gym journey has me very excited! Not sure how any sort of level scaling will apply but I'm open minded :D
there is no scaling sadly :/
There isn't any level scaling. From the website "There is no set path to the Gyms. You can purposefully seek out a stronger Gym Leader" and confirmed by leakers with the beta version weeks ago.
@@randomnessocity Your pokemon have levels and stats which are based on their level, so how does that come in to play in these battles? Is a level 10 arcanine the same as level 50? Do these gyms just have pokemon with set stats or increased HP? What determines what a "stronger Gym Leader" means?
No scaling I'm afraid
@@Bradbradhehe I'm not even sure what you're trying to ask. Brock is an early gym leader with a level 12 and a level 14 pokemon, meanwhile Giovanni has a team of 5 with levels between 42 and 50.
I assume, based on the wording and what the leaks have said, you can go fight the level 40+ gym leader in this game first and then go back and crush the lower level gym leaders after.
We can assume that the levels, stats, number of pokemon, etc. do not change in weaker gyms because there is no scaling.
I think someone already said this but but would be cool if the levels of tye gyms scaled with how many badges you have and it would change thier team depending on how many badges you have so you can truly pick which one to do first
I’m hoping for some character customization like hair and accessories. I’m not a big fan of the school uniform but I like the independent study concept.
According to the website there are only four uniform options to choose from. You also have additional eye and mouth customizations.
Well if we’re restricted to school uniforms (I’m hoping for post-game clothing options), I’m glad there’s more variety in eyes and mouths, alongside hairstyles and skin color.
If you look at 3:29 they are wearing different outfits, jackets, hats and all sorts. So there will be clothes stores for sure, they would be FOOLISH to remove something like that when they've working so hard to make changes in the right direction.
Come on guys it’s a Pokémon game, ofc there will be customization

I am hoping in vain that one of the possible "stories" involves Contests, but then I'm also probably one of a handful of people that would absolutely buy a game completely focused on pokemon contests, albeit more in-depth.
Also hoping Banette is one of the available pokemon, because I just want my beloved spooky doll to be in my team =C
Same, I forgot when but I made a whole ass essay describing how to make a Pokémon contest game.
I was thinking the same. I want to do contests again.
I miss contests. I want to be able to do a contest journey like Dawn and Serena in the games.
I've always liked contests in the anime; it looks like so much more challenging having to combine beauty and brawn to make your partner look INCREDIBLE in battle.
Bdsp and omega ruby gave me contest that I absolutely grineded on
I’d love it if there was a full story in contests 😍
The only thing I'm not really crazy about is the Terastal mechanic. The idea is interesting (kind of like Hidden Power with a few buffs), but the visuals that go with it aren't doing it for me. They just get a crown and an overcoat of crystal, and that's it. The area where you fight raids look pretty cool, though.
I agree. Also, I can't pronounce "Terastalize," lol
Terastallization is for evry pokemon, so of course they can't give every pokemon some grandiose and bombastic design like the megas or gigantamax. Think dynamax, where each one just got bigger, but this has some more style in it!
It’s just another gimmick to get us through the generation. I’m not crazy about but also don’t care that much
@@papapineapple True. But Dynamax at least looked cool
This is so Goofy I'm surprised Disney isn't suing
@@1stCallipostle yeah bro this is some stupid shit
I'm really curious to see an in depth video on character customization options. One of my favorite things from previous games was clothing options, and I'm not really seeing that in any of the ads.
It’s definitely there, maybe just not abundant
Hopefully. The customization options can be changed during gameplay. Splatoon did it and it really works well. I don’t know why Pokémon hasn’t done that yet?
@@sirwngland I saw the 8 minute trailer and it turns out there's only 4 clothes options, and they're all just uniforms -_-

I'm still hoping in a couple of months of what Sprigatito🌿, Fuecoco🔥 and Quaxly💧 will look like in their middle and final evolved forms in their Tera Type.
They probably show them right before the release as always. We will see them from leaks first probably

I know people have gripes with koraidons wheels not moving, but I think the idea here is that both the legendaries are trying to mimmick a motercycle in their own way. Miraidon being a robot can do it no problem while koraidon probably only can mimic the look but not the actual function
Kind of like the "cars" in the Flintstones.
people are stupid. it's clear what is happening.
It's also possible that those wheels things are just floating devices as pokemon mentions on their website 🤷♂️
Miraidon is meant to represent an age where transportation was powered by self, not machine.
but it still looks dumb like its so frickin ugly
We really did not need another gimmick clone of mega evolution in battling. What we really needed is a variety of difficulty options so people that are long time fans have a challenge when playing this game. Also another battle frontier would definitely make me more interested in this game
Nonono, you heard the designers. Apparently we don't want a game that requires thought or provides challenge. Also, we apparently want EXP share to be mandatory.
I thought you (the fans) wanted mage evolution back while also talking about about how shit mega evolution is

I’m so pumped for the Paldea region. One thing I love is that we have an Open World in the Core Series. However, what I’m most excited about is that Miraidon & Koraidon are MOTORCYCLE DRAGONS!!! Most of all I love that this game decides that you can chose your own story.
"motorcycle"? One of them uses its legs to run... why the F does it have wheels for then? Such a dumb design choice.
@@samus88 Seeing how past and future seem to be a recurring theme throughout all of this, tell me; did motorcycles exist that far in the past? Of course not; the "wheels" are a stylistic choice while it runs like a primal creature.

@@goldenpimpernell9269 I understand that theme. Just don't give it wheels then. It's dumb, mate. Nothing you say will change that. The other pokemon has wheels... and uses it.

I didn’t think people would take so much issue with Koraidon‘s “wheels” not being used like Miraidon’s wheels, so I want to mention two things. The website mentions it’s “wheel” is used as a floatation device when swimming and not for driving like Miraidon. I also speculate that it will help it climb up mountains seeing the spikes on it and the conformation of climbing in the game.
They are unnecessary, sorry
If they are for swimming
it would basically helplessly drown
as they are on his belly but will float up, so his back is under water...
@@rasendestroyer2701 yet it's not shown drowning lol

Narrator: "We've kept all the things you love about Pokemon, while evolving the adventure you can have in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet."

4:19 just imagine how cool that would look on Chandeleur!
I don’t get why people don’t like koraidon just because the things on it’s chest and it’s tail don’t act as wheels. Personally it makes me love it more cuz it makes it look more derpy and funny when it runs in my opinion
Same. I love Koraidon because of it.
A lot of lizard species have inflatable throat flaps or sacs for mating and/or territorial displays. It makes sense that a big lizard legendary would have an impressive throat sac. The fact that Miraidon's is used as a wheel and Koraidon isn't doesn't mean Koraidon is poorly designed, just that the people complaining never seen a lizard before.
And it makes sense because he is the opposite of Miraidon the futuristic one. Koraidon using its legs instead of “wheels” is almost like a Flintstones Reference 🤣
I’ve seen people equate it to how the Flintstones powered their vehicles with their feet, which is a great and charming comparison! When I first saw the Legendary Pokémon, I liked Koraidon the best. After this Pokémon Presents, I still do! Just need to see some version exclusives before I make the final choice! I always buy both games, but I have to decide which one gets played first! 😄
All nintendo had to do is make the red one hold the same position the violet one do. Hands on tires and tires spin. Since it move it seem more like a creature than a robot. Like toxic crock tall form with the ball on his chest.
I’m loving these open world games it’s making me feel like I’m in the actual show
When you think about it, koraidon and miraidon’s movements are similar to the ride pokemon in legends arceus. They can ride like wyrdeer, swim like basculegion, climb like sneasler, and glide like hisuian braviary. We don’t know if ursaluna’s ability will be part of koraidon and miraidon though.

I hope we get the legends at the very beginning of the game. That’s what it’s looking like. It’s a very unique change that I’d love to see. Instead of only getting the legend in the dramatic end of the game when you’ve proven yourself worthy or something, you start your journey with them, growing closer together along your adventure. I also love that you can ride them
I doubt it. I bet you can’t actually battle with it until you reach the end of the game. Until then, they’ll probably be used solely for transportation.
@@t-real9054 that’s probably more likely, unfortunately. Still, it’d be really cool if we had them at the beginning of the game. Maybe we’d get them at lower levels and they only reach legendary strength when they get to higher levels?

no having the legendaries from the start is stupid. whats the point of a pokemon game without a dramatic final battle
Reminds me of Arceus' pokemon mounts where they are pokemon you can call for flying, surfing, etc. But not for battling
@@roboat76 the dramatic final battle will be elite 4 though
The website implies that you can do the gyms in any order, but there's an actual proper order to do them in. I believe the solution should be that the pokemon in the wild, and the gyms, should scale based off of the number of badges obtained. This concept isn't foreign to gamefreak. In BDSP's underground the wild pokemon's encounters and levels changed based off badge. If this sort of system is implemented this game would truly feel like an open world game, in the "Champion rank story" sense at least.
This is also how the Wild Area in SwSh worked.
It doesn't seem like scaling will took place. At least from the wording on the website it sounds like yes, you can do the gyms in any order but they have a set difficulty and leveling that's always the same

Tried finding credits attributed to her in the presentation and this video along with the other voice actors of the presentation just out of curiosity and interest, but I've been unable to find any credits at all confirming that is her. Anyone care to weigh in or point out credits somewhere I haven't thought to look/might have missed.
Also Crystal Onix will now be real.
Pokemon go to the polls
At 02:00 the voice over lady refers to the Pokemon professors, Sada and Turo as "research legends passed on"...
So that kind makes me think that they're either dead or no longer the current pokemon professors
If you analyze their appearances and names you'll see that their names are shortened words for the Spanish words for Past and Future respectively and their outfits are of that of a caveman and scientist.... So my personal theory is that through some accident or something :
Prof. Sada was sent back into the past
While
Prof. Turo was sent well into the future
And due to that inconvenience we won't actually get to meet them but instead receive some sort of video message from them some way, some how.
That explains why we don't actually see any scenes of the trainer interacting with the Professors in the trailers like we do for Namona or clevell
Just a theory.... A GAME THEORY!!!
Facing the gyms in any order you want is something that I’ve wanted for a long time and I’m so happy it’s finally happening
And yet the game is also giving us to other story lines we can follow (my guess is that they’re about beating the evil team and completing the dex)

I love that now you can challenge any gym at any time
in theory only, in practice there will still be a 'main' path to guide you through the gyms from easy to hard.
That's false advertisement at its finest. The gyms won't level-scale as you challeng them tho. So you literally cannot beat any gym in any order. There is going to be a "1st gym" and an "8th gym", based on the levels of the Pokemon found on them. Get real.
This makes me think like Breath of the wild where you have the 4 Divine Beast
The game tells you to go to the Elephant 1st but we can choose which path we want first
And overall most fans agrees too that the camel was the most hardest if tackled as someone's 1st boss
We shall see what Pokemon did for the game.
@@samus88 I doubt they'd put in the effort to implement level scaling too but have they confirmed that there is no level-scaling? So far all the information I've heard has come from leaks.
@@samus88 where is it said they won't level scale
I think Tera forms could be that perfect mix of mega evolution and gmax forms. The problem with Megas was they were often given to already over powered Pokémon. Once box art legendary Pokémon were allowed in VGC (which I always thought was stupid) it was game over. Everyone brought the same type of teams cause the same legendary Pokémon would be there. Z moves were nothing more than a fun power boost. Gmax was good cause everyone could get a power boost in dynamax but only some Pokémon could gigantanax and extra effects from certain moves like gmax wildfire handed out extra damage.
But it was too short lasting only 3 turns you really had to be careful when you used it. This looks like the prefect mix. Everyone gets that extra boost like dmax but unless I'm looking at it wrong, only some Pokémon get the different Tera type like mega evolution and gigantanax. If this lasts all battle it's a win win.
Can we all agree that Fidough is adorable?
Yeah and Pokemons naming in this gen is great
Finally the crystal Onix makes sense. 😂
Having no set path is going to open up so many new possibilities- you can actually feel like you're in the world of Pokémon as a character, instead of just a real person sitting in your home playing a video game

That was my first ever shiny Pokémon. I’m glad it’s in the games.
If you can challenge the gyms in any order, I hope the levels scale according to how many badges you have.
it has to. if it doesn't, you're done if you start with the "last gym"
I think I read something on one of their news articles that implied that they weren't scaled based on your skill and that they had a set difficulty progression. So you're being allowed to take on stronger gyms first if you want, but there's still a more logical easiest-to-hardest order set in place that doesn't change any.
@@Agt_Seven So basically the same for most open world games.
@@a.jdeets5527 basically, it's just that this time they aren't *technically* locked to force you to do them in that order.
It actually could be kind of useful, taking the risk to do a slightly better gym could net you more experience in the early game, but as easy to level up it is in modern Pokémon games, there's not much point in grinding levels when exp share is way too effective. I wish they didn't remove the ability to turn it off
Although I’m still a little nervous about the graphics and difficulty, this genuinely looks much better than previous installments. The tera types look great and much more memorable than e.g gigantomax and im so excited for co-op and open world play! I just hope the open world doesn’t feel too cheap or empty
1:01 Literally Orange Academy and Grape Academy.
"We've kept all the things you love about pokemon"
omg they're bringing mega evolutions back!
no their not, you can't really hold out hope for those to return, and personally im glad that mega's are gone cause honestly there was a number of mon's who definitely didn't need them
Have discount mega evolution instead
@@bulborb8756 then they lied to us, again.
I am so excited for these games. I had somewhat low hopes considering the past few games (save for Legends Arceus) but these trailers look AMAZING
I’m curious on how the story will be affected online. Seems likely it will be unavailable to continue online though it would be fun to go through the game together. Have they dived into the capture mechanics yet?
Aside from the Holographic Card mode gimmick, this is shaping up to be one of the most unique and fun looking Pokemon games!
I honestly really like the new twists on pokemon, since I’ve played the original games 93892028274848 billion times and this makes it exciting, different, yet familiar enough to love
Grusha is my favorite Gym Leader.
I love him!
Wait that was a guy 😭
Edit: yeah he's a guy... he still looks great
I'm looking forward to this game. It really looks like they took the criticisms for Sword and Shield to heart.
I mean that’s how games evolve. Sword and shield was the first main line Pokémon game on a console. Sword and shield walked so this new game could run.
@@danieltsiu7383 And BDSP fell flat on it's face in the middle
@@1stCallipostle but that was ilcas first game
Apparently the have gone back to using the menu more again when leveling, and apparently you now have to run into pokemon again, and can't just grab your balls and lunge at them.
@@danieltsiu7383 Give me a break. This game ain't running anywhere. They both plod along, like the entire franchise at this point.
