  • Pokémon Legends Arceus was a breath of fresh air, and everyone loved the fact that we saw NEW regional forms and even evolutions in the game! And now that we have Pokémon Legends Z-A on the horizon I think it's safe to say that we'll find at least a few new variants and an evolution or two in this alternate version of the Kalos region! Also Mega Evolutions are confirmed to come back so that should be factored in as well!

      The problem with the games being set in the past, is that you cannot justify an evolution or Mega for a gen 6 or earlier Pokemon that was in the Kalos dex though, since in-lore, you cannot explain it due to XY not having them.
      It also says its a redevelopment of Lumiose City (So the city is already there)

      @@nickdentoom1173 Really isn't that much of an issue. The redevelopment exponentially increased human activity in the area, and it's probably how you'd explain pokémon either being extinct or migrating away. Also, the renovation of Paris was also a redevelopment. Paris was there too.
      It's a perfect match of time framing and ecological change in the region due to the industrial revolution.
      The only real thing that might throw that idea under the bus is that the trailer heavily features lights and holograms, as opposed to Arceus' ink and paper. As far as we know Z-A might be a sequel and not a prequel.

    I don't think people are exploring the chance they revamp the mechanics of mega evolution itself. Like, they could straight up remove the 100 base stat buff in favor of something more easily balanced like being able to use held items and/or having 2 abilities instead of 1. Making it more of a mode-change instead of a buff sort of like Tera types.

    It’s so annoying that Legends Arceus had a rule established that it broke. Every Pokemon you could catch was from the Diamond and Pearl Pokedex and any Pokemon that appeared that was not part of that initial Pokedex was a new form… except for Sneasel. So now any Pokemon can have a form rather than only the 500 not in Kalos

    • @CaptainObliviousV
      @CaptainObliviousV 4 месяца назад +13

      I wouldn’t call it an established rule if it was never concrete from the get go. I quite like the precedent that they set with Hisuian Sneasel & Sneasler, showing that even native Pokémon can go through changes. I do wish we got an answer of whether Hisuian Sneasel adapted into the modern ones, or if they were driven to extinction by Johtonian Sneasel migrating from Johto and/or via space time distortions, but I don’t mind it being left up to interpretation.

      It would make more sense for this Legends game to use other pokemon than just the Kalos dex than it does for L:A. Arceus was about exploring a wild and untamed region, where human influence hasn't done much to alter the Pokemon population. With L:Z, it looks like it's taking place entirely in a city, a manmade environment where non native Pokemon would have a much greater chance of being introduced by the people there.

If it was just the Kalos dex for instance there's so few fully evolved Pokemon that with such a span of time until the game's release, we'd all have seen so many concepts of what their "new forms" would be it wouldn't be as exciting when we got the real ones. Opening it up to other lines gives some wiggle room and we could see totally out of left field picks.

    • @nickdentoom1173
      @nickdentoom1173 4 месяца назад

      It doesn't even look like it, its flat out confirmed the game is set entirely in Lumiose City.
      For forms, the games being set in the past is fine. However, the games being set in the past is a problem for Mega Evolution being given to past Pokemon/Pokemon that appear in the Kalos Dex, since in-lore, they cannot explain why they weren't in XY.
      So in terms of Mega's, the games basically have to be set in the future, where they can explain that the new Mega's in Legends Z-A are recent discoveries, same for the forms. They can even make it so that some Pokemon adapted to live in a city rather than in the wild, even those who were in XY.
      I love the Litleo example in terms of forms, because looking at the trailer again, i can say with certainty the Kalos Pokemon that don't get new forms are Litleo line, Fletchling line, Skiddo line, Pancham line, Espurr line, Honedge line, Skrelp line (Which imo also confirms Clauncher line not getting anything since they are counterparts), Noibat line. They were all in the trailer. Klefki and Hawlucha were in the trailer as well, but considering they are stand-alones, there still is a possibility for them to get a new evolution (Although i find it extremely unlikely for Klefki, but also for Hawlucha, especially looking at its popularity). Furfrou and Flabebe lines are there as well and while they might not get new evolutions, they might get new forms/trims (Especially for Furfrou that seems likely, since the trailer showed us different Furfrou with different trims, so they might throw in new ones). Other potential Kalos mons that are somewhat problematic are the Pumpkaboo and Phantump lines, the Aromatisse and Slurpuff lines, since they are trade evo's and they don't tend to get new evolutions and i don't think they will get new forms either. Another potential problematic one in terms of a new evolution is the Helioptile line (Since it evolves with a stone and those tend to be the last of their lines), however, i can see Helioptile/Heliolisk get a new form.
      Now, you can obviously make the argument for the trade evo's that we got Alolan Golem in Alola, but what we need to keep in mind here is that Golem isn't a native Alola mon and as such had to adapt.

      @emperorcubone but in general, then entire Paris renovation took place brywrrn 1853 and 1870 with the tower beimg built just after the city wide demolition and remodle. And in a game based in France with an obvious parallel between the games main city and Paris, this seems like the more plausible timeline. We also don't see Prisim Tower already built in the trailer. We see a blue print rendering of Lumios City and the tower. So its hard to say based on the rendering if the tower was built before construction.

      The problem with that games being set in the past, is that they literally cannot give Mega Evolution to Pokemon that appear in the Kalos Dex in XY and don't have a Mega in that game, since they literally cannot explain in-lore why they did have them if Legends Z-A is in the past, but didn't in XY.
      However, with the game being set in the future, they can easily go like: Due to the redevelopment of Lumiose City and opening up the lower layers and sewers, we disovered new Mega Stones and new Mega Evolutions.
      Also looking at the trailer is that Lumiose City appears to have 2 layers now as well, which they didn't have in XY (We can clearly see bridges and waterways). So that is another indication the games are set in the future rather than the past.

    • @bbro43
      @bbro43 4 месяца назад

      @nickdentoom1173 you can easily have Megas exist in the past and not currently during the time of Gen 6. To Mega Evolve you need a Mega Stone. Its very well possible that over the course of 200 years enough Mega Stones get broken, losts or are just not in circulation that the evolution is lost in the present day.
