Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Teases Two New Pokémon In Latest Trailer

Violet is just getting better and better exclusive pokemon. Also can't wait for the comments to become an Ed sheeran fight

Sucks that Nintendo Life has to play dumb about new info on the games when they've played their review copy and know everything about them.

Its Dino Donphan and Robo Donphan which is from the ancient and future forms feature of Donphan

No voice acting is really killing the vibe this game is trying to have.

All these trailers, and a single hint of the starter evos, which is expected but it still hurts.

The game looks fun, I was not into the artstyle with the first trailer, but after seeing more, graphics looking less fuzzy, and customization, which always get me, yeah this is definitely one I’m getting, not day one, but I’m definitely getting it.

Oh and that music slaps!

@NinjaWaddleDee

Eh, I don't think these games need voice acting. It'd be fine if they did, but the lack thereof doesn't really hinder anything.

Scarlet is just getting better and better exclusive pokemon. But I will play both versions anyways.

@NinjaWaddleDee Not really. Pokémon was never a series that relied on voices beyond Pokémon noises. That is like saying Minecraft, Animal Crossing, etc should get proper voice acting when then the games were enjoyed regardless

Question : What do you think of these new Pokémon?

Me : Well, that was decent.
The song was meh in my opinion.
Not a fan of 2020's style Western music like that.
The Gym leaders looking was more like bunch of weirdos compared with previous Pokemon games.
Still want to know the starter evolution looking.

I wish I could play as ash ketchum, the one from the original tv series indigo league, I miss misty and brock too

Btw why can’t we ever play as a fat guy, what’s wrong with having a chubby player for once

@NinjaWaddleDee
Well, that's Nintendo logic.
I think it will not hurt the brand by adding voice acting.
The 3rd party games did better while Pokemon games did really baby steps.

Watched the trailer and it's fine, but had to quickly turn off the sound because that song is terrible.

@Rayquaza2510 What! Whyyy! What was wrong with it, I thought it fit so well 😭😭

@get2sammyb hold on do people hate this song? This is my first time hearing it lmao!

@Snatcher I don't like that type of music, never did.

And it is not specifically this song, just any of the songs like it.

Which is a lot nowdays.

Main reason I don't use the radio for at least 10 years now.

@Classic603 It feels like a hindrance when they make cutscenes that are lacking voices despite voice being what that scene would be focusing on. Piers's concert consisting of flapping his lips to guitar feedback and now Mela silently yelling on top of her car are weirdly empty and awkward.

Sounds good! Now I'm going to watch the trailer as I haven't been able to just yet.

@Snatcher
If the music was Super Eurobeat style, I might like them.

That was painful to watch. I’ll finish Pokemon Colosseum for the first time tonight.

I hate Pokémon for making me willingly listen to and Ed Sheeran song (trice), but this overview trailer should've been released sooner: it would've gotten me hyped from the beginning. The game looks like a lot of fun in this, which was lacking in the earlier trailers.

These past/future forms will make it difficult to choose between the versions ... and might eventually push me over the edge to buy both versions ... Well played, Gamefreak, i say reluctantly.

@Rayquaza2510 That sounds fair, I thought you hated the song specifically, nothing wrong with that if you did, just was curious.

Okay, so the trailer "we definitely don't want to miss" has like 3 seconds of anything new, everything else is stuff we already knew about. I mean sure, it's not bad to have a trailer like this, but why hype it up for fans who have already seen all this stuff?

Also, I don't really care for the song.

I just hate that I'm catching Pokemon hype again! Every year its revealed and I'm like "meh" and every year the previews say "this game is stuck in the past/doesn't move the franchise on much/performs badly...gamefreak has dropped the ball...again, customers shouldn't stand for this" so I go "no not this time, not again"

Then every year release day rolls around and I want to go out n get it because there just something special in that new pokemon game feeling.

@Anti-Matter The Pokémon Company =/= Nintendo...

Okay, but you missed out on reporting the real news: Rotom phone cases

Past and future forms are a really cool concept that I hope gets explored! I wonder if it will tie into the Girafarig evolution as well as the evolutions in Legends Arceus

I legit don't know what version I want anymore. Exclusives will have to decide it for me. Usually the cover legendary plays a part, but I like Koraidon and Miraidon equally.

@Arawn93 Animal Crossing DOES have voice acting. It may be gibberish, but there are definitely voices, and it helps a ton with immersion. Now imagine if they removed that and all you had to look at was text.

I'd argue that a laidback game like AC could even be good without the voices, but Pokémon wants to do a lot of dynamic and impactful scenes, and without any sound it just feels empty and awkward.

@NinjaWaddleDee I don't think Pokemon ever had voice acting. 1st Gen didn't have i and was one of the best games of all time. And let's face it, no voices option is better than voice acting done badly.

Pretty okay trailer. I already paid the double-pack. So I can enjoy the best of both worlds.

Nice trailer but it could've done without Sheeran's "singing".

This song really shows Ed Sheeran's talent.

You may interpret that whichever way you want.

The whole potential of the past/future teases is the main reason I went for the dualpack. Well, that and I couldn't decide between the two legendaries.

It's Dinophan and... OnlyPhans.

Sorry, ran out of ideas.

@abbyhitter thats just journalism though, im enjoying the hype! Ive enjoyed looking for leaks, the constant conversation around the new games... its all part of the fun!
