Maybe the rumble pack aspect makes [Pinball] difficult to port?

Nintendo was able to convert the controls for Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble into gyro and iirc even enabled rumble for Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga when that was exclusive to the Game Boy Player. I seriously doubt the rumble will be an issue.

Stadium 2 finally being available is cool. Not much else to say about the Presents.

I do hope they update the Stadium games to have transfer functionality when they bring the mainline games to NSO.

Did anybody else think Archaludon was a Mega Evolution when it first popped up?

So Double Battles and Gym Rematches are back and unfortunately that probably means those being locked behind DLC is just gonna be the new normal for any future games.

Oh yeah, Eviolite Duraludon is the superior version of AV Duraludon that VGC players used to play.

I'll say this: The TCG from that era is a very different game than the TCG of today.

Archuladon looks sick, totally not expected let's hope he's good.

The applin evo looks neat, sorta feels like this gen's duskroc.

Raging Bolt looks cool in the artwork but in-game idk it looks kinda goofy. I think Raikou's face just doesn't look good on the long neck and is better hidden by the cloud scarf

Iron Crown nailed it, the paradox swords of justice look better than the originals so far. The typing hopefully is better than Iron Leaves' tragic grass/psychic. The light blue makes me possibly think it might be steel/water, which would be awesome. Steel/ice would fit with having another double weakness though lol. Ah it could also be steel/psychic which would be alright I guess.

I’m wondering if they’ll either reduce Duraludon’s stat’s to something like 510 or Archaludon will be having a different stat distribution ala Scyther and Scizor.

Other than that, I would love a Duraludon pre-evolution in the future.

It's possible that all the Paradox trios will have a shared type; the Beasts will probably be Dragon type, and the Swords will probably be all Psychic.

I think it's hilarious how Raging Bolt looks exactly like all the meme predictions about Paradox Raikou

I can't imagine Duraludon getting a BST nerf. Game Freak doesn't run a Little Cup format so it's not necessary.

The evolution might get a slight BST boost while dumping Speed to bump up something else (Duraludon is surprisingly fast considering its design at base 85) to prevent it from hitting the 570/600 mark GF tends to reserve for more special Pokémon.

Giving an evolution to something with fully evolved starter stats is baffling.

Hmm, more Johto/Unova legendary paradoxes. Wonder what this means for the "merged" versions that were teased before. Pokemon doesn't really do fusion...

Point, but those are considered variants of the same Pokemon. I don't believe we've had combining Pokemon to make a completely new one?

Something something Venustoise joke.
