The Unrivaled vs Roaring Moon | Pokemon Scarlet Wi-Fi Battle #2 with Announcers | 6v6 Singles Online
0This is a draft. Reuploading this sometime later.
I love how Cloyster's attack animation here is literally the exact motion from Pokemon Stadium when it uses Clamp.
I made a handful of mistakes in this battle. I could have won if I made better choices. But it's not a big deal. This isn't supposed to be a competitive team anyway. It's my luck team. lol
My blunders made for good video content, so it worked out :)
Charizard has two idle animations. He can fly or stand on the ground. I love it so much.
I can't take Skeledirge off the team. I think it's one of my top 10 favorite pokemon now. Guess I'm running 2 fire and 2 dark-types. Alright then.
New Complaint: The Pokemon stand still when they miss their attack. The text box should at least be sped up instead of making us wait 2 seconds before it tells us that our attack failed. The delay's a dead giveaway.

Personal Score: 8/10
Critical (unbiased) Score: 6.5/10
The game isn't balanced, but so far I've been winning a lot with my "underused" team. It's probably the least unbalanced meta yet partially due to Terastallization. Scarlet and Violet competitive is definitely more fun than Sword and Shield.
So far I'm very happy with this game except for these gripes I have
Negatives:
-The poor performance issues do not bother me much besides Hariyama's animations looking very cringy and awkward, especially from far away.
-Tinkaton's pre-evolution, Tinkatuff, is literally an eyesore. I hate its mouth.
-A lot of the Paldea Pokemon have bad/lackluster designs. Few are cool. Some are decent.
-The NPC trainer designs are awful. Too many old people and odd facial features/body types. It's annoying to see the NPC trainers clap with goofy smiles at the beginning and end of a battle. The majority of trainer classes stopped being enjoyable to look at starting with Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee. But they are much more terrible in Scarlet and Violet.
-A lot of the music is good, but the Elite 4 theme is very bland and made it semi-anticlimactic. However, the first time I played was without the patch. I'm not aware of the music being adjusted in version 1.01.
-The designs of some gym leaders and the champion are not good.
-The Battle Recorder still is exempt from the game!?
-No Battle Tower
-Serperior is not in the game...
-Australians had the privilege of playing 15 hours earlier than me for no reason. All regions should have their digital pre-orders unlocked at the exact same time worldwide.
-We cannot use the mirror herb to get missed "pre-evolution only" moves. This must be an oversight.
If I remember any more complaints, I will mention them in future videos.
Overall, the game is fantastic. I want to say that I love it. Nothing will beat Pokemon Stadium, but it's a real treat so far. I say this before I see people using broken strategies online again that prevent me from winning with my favorite pokemon team combination.
