Holy shit, you can access the box from anywhere at any time. This means EXP share is not an issue because YOU CAN JUST PUT IT IN YOUR BOX.

Yes, beat the game with only one pokemon in your party. Or are you supposed to switch out literally every single trainer battle? Go shill somewhere else.

What is the difference between going into the box menu to switch mons in/out of your party and going into another menu to turn off Exp Share?

how can somebody be this stupid? Is this supposed to be a really low quality troll?

Whats the difference between turning off exp share once, vs swapping out your pokemon before and after every battle? Really?

Why the hell would you turn xp share off permanently? You're turning a 20 hour charming kid's game into a 60+ hour slog.

Do you just really enjoy pressing the A button repeatedly?

To keep the levels of my full team of 6 in line with, or even under, the levels of the opponents without needing to swap them out every 5 minutes. I played XY without Exp. Share and the campaign was fun and certainly not 60+ hours.

I'd say that being 20+ levels above your opponents is more likely to turn the game into a 'mash A' fest. Without permanent Exp. Share, you're far more likely to swap Pokemon, use items, use different attacks, etc.

Neither of those things are surprising to me.

I wish I could still get excited about Pokemon. Haven't been happy with the games since BW2.

Same, pretty much. I thought X and Y looked very pretty (going purely by aesthetics, gen 6 is still my favorite), but they still didn't have as much postgame content as I'd have liked.

What is the difference between going into the box menu to switch mons in/out of your party and going into another menu to turn off Exp Share?

Because some people actually like having a proper team of Pokemon and potential backups to fall on in battle? Are you being obtuse on purpose?

Why the hell would you turn xp share off permanently? You're turning a 20 hour charming kid's game into a 60+ hour slog.

If that's what people want to do, why shouldn't they be allowed to? Particularly considering gen 6 provided that option?

I don't understand the appeal behind Nuzlockes and other sorts of similar self-imposed challenges, but the fact remains that they are popular ways of playing the game.

WTF Nintendo apparently just doesn't care about the leakers. They just released the 1.1 patch 8 days before official release, and this is something that should be for the reviewers, but they openly advertised it on their twitter, and acknowledged that some people already completed the game early, but this patch shouldn't cause any problems for those people since it's mostly postgame content.

What are they supposed to do? If they were worried about it they wouldn't let early games go to retailers so early. I'm pretty sure every pokemon game for the last 10 years or so has been streamed before it officially released.

I don't understand what's so hard about them making a game that doesn't look like ass.

They need to hire a ton of people to provide unique high quality animations for all existing Pokemon. This is only something that needs to be updated once every 10 years or so, it can be reasonable reused. Then, the excuse that they can't include all the Pokemon in one game goes out the window.

Pokemon is not a complicated series but Gamefreak somehow manages to drop the ball every time. Pokemon Y was the last one I enjoyed and even it was kind of shaky.

all the pokemon games look fine tho

you don't need ultra realistic graphics for a pokemon game

what they actually need to do is realize that people older than 4 play these games and want a more engaging and non-shitty story, with routes that aren't straight linear lines like they have been since the fucking 90s, with not getting tutorials for the same shit over and over even at the end of the game

its because gamefreak is an indie company that got lucky, and the pokemon company doesn't give a single fuck as long as its crap sells.

Just take this in. Last of us/spiderman sells a fraction of what pokemon does, and has 10's of millions more in its budget and infinite more effort put into it than the single highest selling media franchise of all time.

Why cant you go leave, because clearly any form of criticism unmans you so much that you literally can't enjoy it until you convince all the "haters" that NOOO they must be the ones in the wrong! Not you!

Hope that pokemon company foot feels real good shoved down your throat.

Pot meet kettle. You clearly can't accept any criticism.......So, what has the whining done? Oh, right. NOT A DAMN THING. "Buh...buh...MY WHINING ON A WEBSITE FORUM HAS TO MAKE NINTENDO KISS MY ASS AND DO WHAT I DEMAND! RIGHT, GUYS?! RIGHT, GUYS??? GUYS????"
Seriously, nobody is forcing you to play Pokemon, so why the whining? Do you guys just not have anything better to do?

Okay so, shiny hunting information:
Shiny odds are 1/4096
Shiny Charm is in, HOWEVER it only works on eggs. And nothing else. Random grass encounters. Underground overworld encounters. Soft resetting legendaries, and pokeradar. Shiny charm doesn't effect any of that.
Pokeradar is back. So you take 50 steps to charge the radar, use it, then grass will continuously shake until you enter battle. The furthest patches of grass from when you used the radar will contain the same Pokemon you are chaining. Each successful chain increases shiny odds incrementally, until shiny odds become 1/200. Then every shaking patch of grass has a 1/200 chance of being shiny. So then just keep recharging the radar until you see the shiny shaking grass. So sounds like radar hunting is much easier than it was in DPPt and XY. But it's probably still time consuming.
Underground has a completely separate shiny hunting method. You can find shiny statues, and decorate your base with them. Each shiny statue of the same Pokemon increases shiny rolls for that specific Pokemon by 1. Shininess is then determined on a Pokemon when you enter a room, but you cannot see the shiny until you enter battle. So just decorate your base with the shiny statues of the Pokemon you want shiny. Enter the room where they spawn. If they don't spawn, exit and reenter, then just run into all instances of that Pokemon until it shines, or leave, reenter and try again.
Legendaries: shininess is determined when you enter the room. So enter battle, if shiny, congrats, if not, run away, leave the room and reenter.

Edit: on the subject of shiny lock:
Mew and Jirachi

That's it. The only shiny locked Pokemon are the gift Mew and the gift Jirachi. Starters, Palkia, Dialga, Arceus, Giratina, Heatran, and previous gen legendaries can all be shiny hunted. And, apparently until the mystery gift events actually happen, it appears that Darkrai and Shaymin are NOT shiny locked.

Happy shiny hunting trainers.

any pokemon past Arceus is not in the game, supposedly.

however, legendaries/mythicals from more recent generations are present, but unknown is the full list

I imagine the game has to be compatible with Sword/Shield. Like you'd be able to battle/trade since they're on the same "generation." But different dev teams, so maybe not? idk
