Thoughts on the Pokemon Day Video

The video came and went. There wasn’t really much for me? Aside from the Gen10 announcement of Winds and Waves (which looks pretty?)

Coming in 2027, it’s something I look forward to. Looked like there were still some Scarlet/Violet elements in there. That doesn’t bother me too bad. I do think they need to scale the world down. One of the things that has kept me from coming back to Scarlet/Violet is it’s kinda intimidating to me how big the world is. Coming from the guy that was FEASTING when Breath of the Wild came out.

Probably the weirdest and most baffling thing are the GameBoy Jukeboxes. I’m sure the hardcore collectors of the old DMG GameBoy and Pokemon will go after this, and I think at one point I would have as well. I’m just amused at the notion of essentially resurrecting the Hit Clip!!

The other thing that grabbed my attention was Pokemon XD coming to NSO. Game I’ve never played, and would love to play. Not sure if I want to play it there, or on my GameCube. Certainly cheaper on NSO. I have been told that Colosseum should be done first? Who knows. We’ll see.

After that there was some Trading Card Game and TCG Pocket stuff, Pokopia, and that was about it. Largely I was non-plussed by it besides a small bit of excitement for Gen 10. If this were five years ago I think I’d be WAY more excited about it, but that’s a conversation for a different day [never]
