Or maybe you're just incredibly smart and purposely avoid any sort of spoilers so that when the games get released you can go ahead and form your own opinions. And when the day comes and everyone talks about how everything is how they expected it to be you can come in and say that you experienced things completely differently and everyone is just like "You Did What? No Way! D:" and you "Yes way! :)" and they "OMG!"

I don't think the trailers were good enough to the point that people might get disappointed by the games... I think the trailers were disappointing, so that players who still buy the games will be amazed!

*leans casually against wall*

Yep, that's exactly what I done 😎

Tbh though, I actually do that sort of thing a lot. When we went to Disney World, I was the only one of the party that refused to watch videos of the new stuff so I could experience it properly. Everyone else was pretty jealous of my restraint and it was totally worth it!

I mean... they could have had that too if they weren't so nosy 😏

I want them to give us events that aren't just free gifts in a random PokeCenter, but actual stuff you can do.

You shouldn't want anything from Game Freak / The Pokémon Company / Nintendo; chances are, they are going to be as lazy / minimalist / frustrating as usual.

Wouldn't mind more story events either. Like the Delta Episode in ORAS.
Would be a decent thing to add as postgame content imo.

But yea, I'm not counting on it xD

But then how will you fly? how will you touch the sky?
You should think about it every night and day, how to spread your wings and fly away!

You'd think someone who works on fangames could just go to the move table and set Fly as a possible option for Kabutops to learn. :P

I could, and yet I don't want to make Kabutops overpowered :D
I did give it a custom move though, a Rock-type equivalent of Giga-Drain, so it has a STAB that goes with its concept.

Why not Primordial Suck (or Slurp if you don't want to use Suck)
based on 'Primordial Soup', dunno if this is too far back though lol

Paleo-Drain is ok enough though 😉

What's the in-world explanation for that move and how does it relate to Kabutops in particular?

Usually, you can infer a name based on information like that.

According to the Pokédex in several versions, Kabutops drinks the body fluids of the preys it hunts. That's why Kabutops has Giga-Drain (and the weaker forms) + Leech Life.
Also I wanted to give it a physical Rock STAB that didn't miss 90% of the time -_-
(Don't worry, I am not focusing my fangame on Kabutops XD
Many many Pokémons get lore-friendly improvements)
