Problems?
 
Easy question,

Do you have any problems for Pokemon Sun and Moon?

Juice585 May 29th, 2016 6:21 AM

problems as in....?

could mean a couple different things....either with the game itself i.e. "7.8/10 too much water" or "what is the evil team going to do?"

mew_nani May 29th, 2016 9:22 AM

We won't really have any good answers to that until we at least get more information about the game. There's a lot about it we don't know yet, and right now we have far more speculation than fact to go on.

Rivvon May 29th, 2016 12:00 PM

I don't like how people are calling it "SuMo." It's SM. Nobody called them DiPe, just DP. Or ReBl, just RB. So that's definitely something I don't like.

Unless you're talking about problems within in the games themselves, in which case I have a major problem with those p r o t a g o n i s t d e s i g n s . . .

Female protagonist and Popplio. Other than those two I'm happy with the content shown so far. With having such little info to go off its kinda hard to point out flaws just yet.

AliceBlaze May 29th, 2016 12:43 PM

I'm worried that the game is gonna hold my hand again like in OR/AS. I want to be able to explore the region myself and figure out where to go next without my friend/rival offering to take me there.

Looks like it will be really easy again, and also cars.

cars is definitely not a problem, unless you took issue with the Lumiose taxis

I get that a lot of people are looking forward to it, but I don't think it really fits with the theme. Part of the adventure is having to use pokemon to help you reach tough places, and just driving in a car seems lazy to me :p
I'm sure I'm gonna get suprised though

TheLegendaryGuy May 29th, 2016 3:53 PM

I don't see myself facing a problem until the release of the game itself.

Bobbylicious May 29th, 2016 6:56 PM

I don't really like the designs of any of the pokemon so far so I guess that's a problem but I'm sure they'll grow on me

Hikamaru May 29th, 2016 7:56 PM

My problem is the extremely slow pacing in regards to getting info. We went for two whole months with absolutely nothing known and then finally got info in the form of the starters.

Another problem I have is the Popplio haters, and the possibility the evolutions could sway people's opinions drastically again and say "my fave starter has turned ugly" or "I don't like any of them so I'm boxing my starter". This definitely raises my concerns for the Rowlet fans since it's the popular one and we know what happened to Fennekin.

Esper May 29th, 2016 8:04 PM

Just that they seem to be following the same format they always have: Silent protagonist visits professor to get a starter Pokemon, collects badges, fights team evil, catches the box art legendary Pokemon, faces the champion, etc. etc. Half of this hasn't been confirmed but we know that's how it's going to go.

It's not a big problem though, just that I wish for something a little different.

smocks May 29th, 2016 8:09 PM

uh Probably it being as boring as XY... With all of the new features in XY, the game lacked a good plot and pacing which just brought the whole game down together. I want to have a great storyline and mythology/background to the game than rather than the sleazy easy/boring story lines we had for XY. + I want the game just to be a tad bit harder so I don't beat it in one day :P

HUF_DBC May 29th, 2016 8:21 PM

I'm not the biggest fan of the protagonist designs, but it's not so bad since it looks like customization is returning. I'd be much more disappointed if we were stuck with them as is.

天 (Caine) May 29th, 2016 11:55 PM

I'm not a fan of the Hawaii theme, but I hope it grows on me.

destinedjagold May 30th, 2016 12:31 AM

Unless they add 'hard mode,' then the game being too easy is going to be a problem for me. :/ I really took my time playing X and OR and it felt like I just...breezed through the game with barely any grinding. Yeah, it's aimed for kids, but I really want them to look at their older fans too and give us a 'hard mode.' Don't care if foes are insanely overlevelled. It'll give me more reason to grind and spend more time playing the game.

Speaking of the protagonists, the male looks bland as always so I'm not fond of him. I still absolutely love the female though since she's adorable and female protagonists often had more effort put into their designs anyway.

I kind of agree with this, I didn't find XY/ORAS ridiculously easy, but it definitely wasn't a challenge.
As a Pokemon collector I spent time hunting in routes to catch as much as I could, which kept my leveling up. However maybe it is just knowledge based (i like to remind myself that the games are partially easier now cause I know my electric pokemon isn't going to hurt Onix no matter how much I try) but I feel like when I was younger playing RBY/GSC that there was a lot more grinding needed to beat each gym. I remember spending hours in Viridian forest, or the small patch of grass before Pewter city, beating countless Pokemon to level up and maybe get that one better attack that would help me beat Brock. And now that doesn't feel like the case, by the time I reach the Gym I'm more than strong enough to wipe it.

I feel like "Hard Mode" wouldn't even be an overly difficult thing to add, just add 15 levels to all opponents Pokemon, hell even just your rival and gyms/E4 to make them a challenge. Would make it a bit more fun. But either way, I'm gonna play both Sun and Moon, and probably wont complain, then by and play the next games, and repeat

Nobody called them ReBl, GoSi, RuSa, DiPe or BlWh because none of them meant anything on their own.

SuMo is like Sumo, a fighting style. At least that's why I think people have become attached to the name.

So I don't think it's really fair to compare them.

I guess it's because people think SM sounds inappropriate.

But ReBl sounds like Rebel! That's pretty cool, if I do say so myself.

And from what we know, these games have nothing to do with sumo. I just prefer the consistency!

That didn't stop anyone in gen 4...

Yeah, I'm worried SM's hand-holding will be even worse, and that there's not going to be any semblance of a difficulty. Gen IV's difficulty was perfect - compare Cyrus' party with Lysandre's. Cyrus has a team of 5 with full movesets, whereas only 2 (Honchkrow and Gyarados) out of Lysandre's 4 Pokémon have all 4 moves.

Not just levels, but adding one more Pokémon on trainers' parties as well as giving them items and better movesets would be ideal.

Iceshadow3317 June 2nd, 2016 6:36 AM

Nothing right now. There are some things being speculated about fusion between humans and pokemon. If it stays like Ash Greninja, then I am fine, but if it becomes a complete change like digimon, then I am possibly done with pokemon.

I don't care about hand holding or anything. You can already look up everything online. And we can always explore after the main storyline.

And if there is less that 100 new pokemon, I will be extremely annoyed.
