I’m bored so I made a new discussion. So what do you guys think?
I… might put something interesting here eventually.

I...don't even want to think about it. The feature is so important to me - honestly, I might consider not buying the game, just to send a message; but I'm not sure if I'd actually have the willpower to do that. It may seem ridiculous, but nothing in Pokemon has actually upset me to that level before. :(

I wouldn't mind, but would be surprised if they didn't have this.

Though all this thread is doing to me right now is making me remember just how I miss the inexplicable charm of having your character be reduced to a tiny tiny sprite when you play the game… I probably sound a little ridiculous and I don't know quite what it is, but back when it was just a 2D sprite, that felt real magical.

"Crazy rattata, 26, slaughters half of video game company staff"

is a headline you'd see that day

I exaggerate, but I like having character customization and would not be pleased if they suddenly removed it for no reason

I don't really care about character customization. They should focus on core gameplay issues instead of superficial esthetics.

I'd say I would be fairly shocked but then thinking about it this is a franchise that puts features you'd think are now standard in one generation and then takes them out randomly in another (Day/Night cycle, seasons, national dex, following Pokémon), so given their past decisions it wouldn't be completely shocking to me to be honest. I know I would be disappointed though.

It'd be unusual given the feedback they had about not including it in ORAS and then bringing it back to SM/USUM. Not something to put past Game Freak doing again, but I think it'd be odd even for them. Not a concern of mine atm.

It took 7 gens to be able to wear glasses. I'd not be too happy if they took that now

With how bland the designs of main characters are I would be surprised if there is no customization.

That would be incredibly upsetting and also straight-up confusing considering the presence of it in both of the two previous generations.

Doesn’t matter to me really only because the customization in the game still doesn’t make it feel like I’m playing as me. XY was a whole 3 games ago by now it should be so many options that it’ll be impossible for any trainer to look the same. But let’s be honest the chances of that happening are slim.

Spoiler:


Seriously though, I would be quite disappointed. It just wouldn't make sense for them to not include it. With the more powerful console at their hands, they should be able to include even more customization options.

I'd be pretty disappointed. I don't think it's that important, but it would be a nice addition.

Because of its presence in the previous 2 generations, it'd be a pretty big bummer to me if it was suddenly removed. I've always found it fun giving my character more of a personal touch appearance wise. I really do hope it's still in, and with many more options to choose from to further give off that feeling of putting ourselves into the game.

I actually really like the female protagonist's outfit, but I would like to be able to customize - it wasn't something I thought would be a big deal in a Pokemon game until they actually started incorporating it, and I really had a blast customizing my characters in the games that allowed it.

It'd be a bummer, but like... I don't feel too strongly about it? I think the female protagonist looks fine enough (albeit a little boring but still) that I wouldn't be bothered that much if there was no trainer customization in these games.
