@SummonerFlash Looks like I got in your head. How’s bluesky?

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@lukecagg @SummonerFlash I love Nintendo. You seem to love me more with how much you latch onto me

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@SN_Server @F7F7jin There’s a million other games that do it better

We don’t need the 5th cozy uwu chill game on the fucking system

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@F7F7jin @TSA_57 If I want to hop on Mario Kart, I want to play Mario Kart

Not aimlessly wandering in like the 5th fucking cozy game on the system

I swear it’s done out of laziness so they can be lax with actual game and level design

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@F7F7jin @CrimsonSmasher Knockout Tour is great. The issue is that it makes base Mario Kart gameplay worse

And the open world isn’t really enough of an interesting campaign mode

Personally I’d prefer challenges like DS had instead of aimless wandering

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@CrimsonSmasher @F7F7jin Arlo says that they felt the need to have a gimmick to make it different from 8

So they force the gimmick which bogs down the actual Mario Kart experience like 3 laps

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@Mr_EggSandwich @FryeFish @sodapone I’d pay $40 for Wii Sports

$5 for Face Raiders

I believe that’s about it for tech demos lmao

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@drxavie60848658 @rigo_VGC @MeninoJardim It does, but people are used to bigger nukes with Heat Wave, EQ, Eruption, Expanding Force, Calyrex moves

Base 80 power is basically Rock Slide and that isn’t reliable damage, it’s more chip damage

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@MeninoJardim 1 in 8 parahax doesn’t seem like something you can rely on as much

All speculation rn really doesn’t matter because it depends on what else will be legal

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@Mr_EggSandwich @FryeFish @sodapone It’s $10 dude. It’s a game with $10 worth of content and has the Nintendo charm people complain doesn’t exist as much anymore

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@iWillTheGamer Yeah man you gotta look at its entire moveset and not just what Showdown says is useable

Pokeaim even mentioned Alluring Voice having a niche

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@nontpnonjo @GholstavoFring @glimmerfr I think that they mean is that they came up with a fantastic idea for the core gameplay mechanic but didn’t make a game where it realizes its full potential

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@FryeFish @sodapone I have zero issue having paid $10 for it

You guys make a mountain out of a molehill and ignore the actual shit stuff this generation

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@Whisper35218370 @ArloStuff Knockout Tour is fantastic in its own mode

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@JoveGuy @TheYisusOne Raichu X needed an exclusive ability that fit its needs a bit more

It absolutely could see play, but obviously they went too hard on making sure it isn’t really good

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@JoveGuy @TheYisusOne Mega Scovillain is used because it has an actual niche that countered commonly used Pokémon

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@Dorriiaan @bimblor10 @Huiddlefish Because elemental attacks were treated like Magic attacks in traditional rpgs

The monsters could use magic, but the normal bird only does normal bird things

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@ItachiVgc Showdown is a completely different thing

I’d love more alt formats for random stuff like Showdown does

But Champions is good for what it is attempting to do, it’s just a lot it has to account for

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@Yonepatchi It was never going to kill Showdown

[Fonz @TheFonzPart]

@JoveGuy @TheYisusOne Of course. In doubles you’d rather use your Mega slot on a better mon or use Sash Raichu lol
