Pokémon Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet General Discussion

Oh, we don’t even know if there’s character customization? That’s what I’m hoping for.
They showed that you could change your hair and face at a salon, but nothing about clothes. It's starting to seem like you can't change out of the school uniform cus this would've been the perfect time to show off a clothing store too :/
 
Looking at pre-release screenshots I think there will be some outfit customization at least. Remains to be seen if all the outfits will be school-esque though.

I think it's a bit early to say there isn't going to be a daycare or clothing.

Ooooh, Girafarig FINALLY got an evolution I see. Maybe Dunsparce will finally get an evolution too? (I hope) Maybe give some other pokes an evolution that desperately could use one.

Also, what do you all think about Tera forms and types? Not so sure I'm crazy about them.
 
Looks like we have another "non-reveal" of new mons

We have two mice, a green bird, and a...salt mushroom?
Got confirmation also that the Rookidee line is in the game.
At first glance, I thought that the mice were just placeholders to represent the general idea of pokémon, lol. They’re pretty cute and I bet they’ll be normal types. I like the bird, it’s a nice color and zooming in it kinda looks like it has a pompadour or some kinda hair curl. The salt mushroom looks more like a dropped item than a pokémon…it’s gonna be so weird to see it in action!
 
*Looks at the ham on the picnic table* Lechonk IS THAT YOU??? 😱 seriously that wowed me the most out of everything shown in the trailer LOL like, real world food in Pokémon is always so weird but in a good way! Slowpoketail is a delicacy, so why not a gourmet pig Pokémon, too?

But for real though, Girafarig got an evolution! Seeing that made me happy 😊 they kept its naming theme of being a palindrome, nice! Its new abilities are both pretty useful in battle, but negating priority moves can definitely make the difference in battle.

I keep hoping these trailers will officially reveal the starter evolutions some way, somehow but I guess not yet! I can only imagine that derpy Fuecoco face turning mean and spicy 🤭 and I'm really tempted to add Greedent to my team because I skipped SwSh so now's my chance!

I have to agree and support your claims. Anyways, most of what was shown was a recap, but there are some interesting new features in my view.

The website says:
Ranging from short sleeves and shorts to warm blazers, the academy has four different kinds of uniforms in total. Additionally, you can collect a wide variety of accessories from boutiques. Wear your favorite items and try out different styles along the way on your adventure!
found here.

I’m hoping there’s plenty in the boutiques, but I’m a bit bummed about getting stuck in pinstriped orange.

Kind of a weird step backwards to drop the catalogue down to 4 shirts. We've not been at that level since before Kalos. They even did DLC clothing in Sw/Sh which makes this extra strange to me.

I'm going to hold out hope that maybe you'll graduate from the academy at some point and unlock more clothes... or that there will be some other unlock system. For what it's worth that's just me trying to not lose hope though. Seriously this is such a weird decision. 💀

My hopes and dreams crushed🥲 Thanks for sharing though. In PLA we could easily change out of the survey corps uniform so I don't understand why we're stuck with the uniform for this game. Honestly a huge letdown...

I’m guessing because we’re playing as a student the entire game. It is a first for the main series where we have an assigned role other than a kid on an adventure.

That's why I brought up PLA as an example. We were still able to change clothes despite having an assigned role & uniform right?

There has to be clothing customizations. I don't know if I can handle being stuck in the school clothes...
We still have about a month wait left, so perhaps Pokemon will do one final Trailer? Hopefully?
There's still so much information we need to know...
 
There is usually one final trailer a week or two before release. We will probably get another trailer this month as Pokémon games have had at least five before any new games since XY.
