Originally premiered on August 18, 2021 at 6:00 a.m. PDT.
We hope you enjoyed the presentation! What excited you the most, Trainers?
I love that they tapped into the lore a lot in this game, Pokémon has always had such interesting lore and now it’s finally being utilized
“This Pokémon is possessed by the souls of it’s fallen comrades that have perished on it’s journey upstream!” Said the announcer girl cheerfully.
Pokémon will forever be one of the most iconic games
It’s all fun and games until we have to fight Cynthia’s ancestors in Legends Arceus…
I Just Want To Say…Thank You Pokémon! 💙
I can’t believe original Diamond and Pearl was 15 years ago…..
Trainer: dies in battle
Survey Corps: “Alright, next man up!”
Pokémon: “Take too many hits from wild Pokémon and you’ll faint, oh no!” Also Pokémon: “This fish evolved by harnessing the souls of its deceased friends that died around it.”
Such a weird relationship with death
I can’t imagine the frustration that would occur if you just weren’t paying attention, then you get sniped by a Shiny Pokemon, and end up blacking out.
This is the first time in a long time that I haven’t seen anyone pissed about the new direct
finally, pokemon can kill us. That’s what I’ve been waiting for.
So we just gonna ignore the implication that the Hisui forms have gone extinct in modern times?
I’m very impressed with Pokémon arceus. That’s how a Pokémon game should be. It’s been to long but finally they look like they did an amazing job with that title
I like that legends isn’t just “go beat the 8 gym leaders and become champion”. It seems to have a lot more emphasis on filling out the pokedex and learning about the pokemon in the region, and I actually feel inclined to. (I’ve never filled out the pokedex before)
I couldn’t help but smile… hearing that gen 4 music.
Graphics, Seals, underground, union room, and especially the Pokemon following you! …things are looking good for the Remakes.
Legends is looking really good. I admit I had grin on my face the entire time, especially with that Luxray 🙂
Too many things too say.
“So you’ll want to hide in tall grass to approach them”
Oh how the turntables
We’re gonna need a Pokemon Legends game for the other regions, to add to the lore of this world. I swear this will be a big hit.
While waiting for Pokémon Arceus to be release, I’ll get the new diamond and pearl playing first . Thank you Pokemon Gamefreak created a nice Pokémon game 👍
never thought i would see the day when pokemon realize how overpowered they are and start attacking the players lol
“Some pokemon may immediately flee, so you’ll want to hide in tall grass to catch them”
Look at me, I am the encounter now.
“We really need to do something with Basculin, how about a new evolution in the next game?”
“Sounds great. Let’s brainstorm some idea-”
“It’s gonna be powered by the perished souls of its family and friends who lost their lives in the struggle for survival in the unforgiving rapids”
I have disliked GameFreak adding gimmicks like Z-moves and Dynamaxing because they felt to me like they added nothing to the games and just tried to make the game seem cooler than the last one to children. But the new turn system seems like an amazing change of pace and altering your attacks to possibly gain a tactical advantage is a huge breath of fresh air and I more than welcome the change. Great idea GameFreak, really hoping this is as interesting in practice as it is in theory and that it’s not just a one-sided deal (I.e. Two attacks with the Agile Style being objectively better than one attack with Strong Style, thereby leaving no reason to ever use Strong Style)
