They simply don't like competitive stall.And this kills competitive for me again. I was gonna get the games but now it's more single player experience. When Pokémon have access to recover/roost 20 minutes means nothing.

You potentially have way too many animations going off for 20 minutes to ever be enough. Leech seed, left overs, burn, sandstorm damage are just a few examples that build over time.They simply don't like competitive stall.
Stall benefits from this tho.They simply don't like competitive stall.
Eventually, the Move Maniac (AKA the Move Relearner) becomes a free service.Thank you very much for giving me so many Heart Scales! To show my gratitude, I’ll start teaching moves to your Pokémon for free—no Heart Scales required!
They could cut down a lot of time by having textboxes occur during animations, rather than after. Of course, not only are they not doing that, there's now an extra textbox noting that held items are used up.You potentially have way too many animations going off for 20 minutes to ever be enough.

So it looks like it has the following version exclusives:https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeLeaks/comments/qr6hki

Isn't that list a little... short? I'm sure we've seen Pokémon (such as Onix) that don't appear in that table.https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeLeaks/comments/qr6hki

If they don't like competitive stall maybe they should stop making mons that encourage that style of play. Not to mention Pokémon battle system (when it comes to animations etc) is already slow compared with modern jrpg standards, so even if you arent using stall, things like the attacks, status ailments, switch ins-outs, shinies, seed and so on make 20 minutes a joke in most scenarios.They simply don't like competitive stall.
From what I've been told, these are just the fixed encounters. Think of it like how in SwSh in some areas there would always be a Steelix or a Beartic when you walk by, but there were other mons still to be found in those same areas.Isn't that list a little... short? I'm sure we've seen Pokémon (such as Onix) that don't appear in that table.
This fucking game has been such an emotional roller coaster.Unfortunately, just like SWSH, BDSP only allows 20 minutes for local and online battles. They had ONE FUCKING JOB
While that is true, I don't recall ever seeing a VGC match that wasnt featuring a stall team that ended due to time limit.You potentially have way too many animations going off for 20 minutes to ever be enough.

So what if GF prefers VGC? That doesn't make issues about people playing what format they prefer invalid. Negligence is not an excuse for bad execution.While that is true, I don't recall ever seeing a VGC match that wasnt featuring a stall team that ended due to time limit.
In fact the only time I've seen matches die to time limit in SwSh has been while me and friends were doing metronome battles and we had a bit too many turns of nothing.
I get the hate for the timer, I understand it, but it's far from the ginormous issue you people make it look like. GF doesn't care for your 6v6 singles nor your 6v6 doubles battles, they care of their official format, and want to keep it fast paced.
(Also worth reminding that this game will not have a official VGC going on by the way)

Considering the crunch, that's also a real possibility.Honestly I wouldn't even assume GameFreak/Masuda stepped in and went "NO YOU MUST HAVE THE 20 MINUTE TIMER" I could just see ILCA bringing that over and not giving it a second thought. "It's what the main game this generation uses, so we'll just "port" it over and use it too and move on"
Yeah, they didnt even had to worry about competitive as VGC stays in SWSH, this game was made as a single player game.Honestly I wouldn't even assume GameFreak/Masuda stepped in and went "NO YOU MUST HAVE THE 20 MINUTE TIMER" I could just see ILCA bringing that over and not giving it a second thought.

It was a bug fix patch, thats nothing new or you wouldnt be able to save your game on some areas of XY without deleting your save. Is not different from what GF does, is just bigger because the game was incomplete this time.Considering the crunch, that's also a real possibility.
Except ILCA actually patches things in unlike GF, so hope?
I'm saying that in every situation they probably would have done this exact same thing and there's not much reason to think otherwise.Considering the crunch, that's also a real possibility.
They patched in the rest of the game that was supposed to be there from presumably their project plan; I would bet even the moveset and trainer tweaks were probably things meant for another pass that didnt get to go to the printer.Except ILCA actually patches things in unlike GF, so hope?
Correct, this was for both games in 2022.So uhhh... Lemme see if I got this right.
This game, as of right now, post-patch, does not link to Home?
Or is the 2022 thing just because of Arceus?
They made that clear in the video and on the official websiteConnect with Pokémon HOME in 2022
Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl are scheduled to be connected with Pokémon HOME in 2022.
From what I know, the plan is that LA and BDSP will get Home support simultaneously.This game, as of right now, post-patch, does not link to Home?
I'm pretty sure Home support for BDSP had always been scheduled for 2022 - I'm not sure if it's specifically tied to LA or what, but I don't think this has changedSo uhhh... Lemme see if I got this right.
