I unlocked Crustle today too! I tried a few different builds and I really didn't feel like I was accomplishing much with him.

I really want to know how they chose Crustle for this game

it feels like the weirdest choice on the roster (Cramorant would be similarly weird if not for it being from the newest generation)

Crustle and Cramorant are there for two reasons:

  1. Roster diversity (they've got weird designs compared to the popular Pokemon)
  2. Lets the developers hold back more popular Pokemon for later releases

Needs even more diversity so we don't have just 80% Gen 1s.

I think they were trying to cover every Pokemon type with the initial roster as well. Crustle is the bug and rock representation.

I think Gen 1 is currently 60% of the roster, which is a lot but also necessary if they wanted to get as big of an audience as possible from the get-go. They'll branch out from here, although I imagine Gen 1 will still make up 30-40% of the Pokemon they add from now on.

Blastoise is for sure next, and Clefable was in some pre-release screenshots or something, so itll probably show up too, but after that I think/hope theyll give Gen 1 a bit of a rest.

they gotta get some more non-Gen 1 starters in here. Decidiueye, Empoleon, maybe Blaziken if they dont feel like that would be too many fire types who like to kick...

Blissey is confirmed, so I'd be really surprised if they added Clefable as well. Same archetype.

Cramorant is very good. Very bursty early game with an ult that can easily swing a fight if he's positioned well.

I would guess Cramorant isnt used so much because people dont have him yet. Theres no quick access to it, and its not the kind of thing people would spend their first bunch of coins on generally.

I found $40 worth of unused eshop cards that have been sitting around a good year and a half and was considering using them to buy a Pokemon. I guess I should wait until like brand new, super-broken one shows up.

Annoying when you do all the work killing one of the special Pokemon only for a big ass waste of life coward to come in and do the last 2 damage to it for the final blow. Sure its a tactic, but an extremely cowardly one lol. Anyone who enjoys that is just a piece of shit tbh

Opponent, but half the time they seem to appear out of thin air without being visible on your map and then some of them stun you and steal the final blow. Cramorant and Snorlax are annoying like that.

Yeah that's fair game. An important objective doesn't magically become yours because you started damaging it first. People are able to see the HP of Rotom and Dreadnaw by moving the minimap to check on them. They were likely waiting for it to get low and then went into snipe the final hit.

I've done this plenty of times because my team won't group up at those objectives so I'm forced to try and steal it. What should I do? Just let you guys have it and lose the game because my team is trash? No, I'm going to do anything I can to carry their sorry asses.

You don't have to leave it for long but you should group with your team whenever Dreadnaw spawns. It gives EXP and shields to your whole team, putting you ahead of the enemy team for future team fights to win the game!

Wait how do you move the minimap!? Not being able to was one of my gripes with this game lol

If you hold L you can move the minimap around. I think there's a setting in the settings to increase how fast it moves too. I use it all the time to check the HP on Zapdos while hiding in the wings if I need to quickly run in and steal it.

I considered buying the battle pass but no premium currency in the pass was a dealbreaker for me. Most of these battle passes give you enough currency to keep buying future passes so you could theoretically only buy one if you grinded enough but that's not the case here.

I could see myself spending 5 dollars on a future pass if the level 90 skin is good enough though.

If sniping wasn't possible a large majority of games would be decided before half the time was up. For the game to be fair and competitive there has to be a way to keep one side from just snowballing out of control.

I just said I spent some money?? I don't have a problem spending a little bit on a free game if I think it's worthwhile. I don't like getting nickel and dimed for every little thing though. That's one thing I've always praised about Smite, they have that pack that just gives you every current and future God for one reasonable sum.

I bought I think $20 of currency because you get a 1 time double bonus, but I havent spent all of it yet. There isnt much worth buying at this point.
I bought Garchomp, but really I have enough playable Pokmon just from the various launch bonuses and playing the game and the cosmetic stuff mostly isnt very interesting to me. They dont even have a costume for every playable Pokmon yet.

Im kinda shocked that they dont sell shiny versions of everyone, that seems like easy money. Black Charizard alone would make them a ton of cash.
