I love pokemon games...I swear though if I find out this new game continues to have those 1998 battle animations....fuck this game I'm not buying it and fuck Nintendo, cheap lazy bastards...
I think the DS is more than capable of actually animating a pokemon being hit, take a step back or falling down and then getting back into attack stance, not this 2 frame sprite where getting get = flashing on and off. Also, why on earth do defeated pokemon simply disappear straight into the ground, what they used dig?, how about just have it animate on screen to say it was knocked out but that it's still alive.
I mean they overhauled the over world with a nice Isometric 3D effect, so I can't see why they can't overhaul the battle animation....and you know, fuck adding more pokemon, just properly animate battles and I'll be a happy camper.
