Its about time they notice what their fans are saying. But I feel like they're only making statement about it now because Town sold like trash and the Japanese players are more vocal this time around.
People were expecting them to make their first non-handheld mainline to be the biggest and best in the series but instead they decided to do the bare minimum because they know they have blind loyalist that will buy anything with Pokemon name attached to it. They never try to innovate.
@TDRsuperstar2 You can only add them if they're found in the game. If they're not part of the 300+ returning Pokemon then no. You'll have to wait until a new game with them in it to transfer.
Its also safe to assume that Pokemon Home will be a subscription based service that you have to use to hope that your Pokemon makes it in a future game.

Re: Watch Out Pokémon, Temtem Wants To Be The Very Best Creature-Collection MMO
With this being an MMO hopefully they will continue to update it with more monsters to catch and whatnot.
Especially with the way Gamefreak is going.

Re: Guide: How To Make Pokémon Sword And Shield More Difficult (And Fun)
Find it a bit odd you need a guide on how to challenge yourself.
Like saying the game isn't fun enough on its own.
Re: Random: If Cranky Kong Was Once Donkey Kong, What Does The Future Hold For Funky Kong?
@NEStalgia
That, I do not know. He hasn't been around for a long time. (I think since Mario Tennis on N64)
Re: Random: If Cranky Kong Was Once Donkey Kong, What Does The Future Hold For Funky Kong?
@NEStalgia
From what I remember DK JR is Cranky's son and the current DK is the son of him.
Re: Random: If Cranky Kong Was Once Donkey Kong, What Does The Future Hold For Funky Kong?
What about Donkey Kong JR?
What is he called now since he was supposedly the second Donkey Kong.
Re: Pokémon Sun And Moon's Global Link Service Will Be Shut Down In February 2020
With all these people saying "if you want all the Pokemon then play the old games" That won't be possible when all their online functions shut down.

He dones us a great service.

Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield Are Leaking Like A Sieve, Be Safe Out There
@AlexSora89
According to the leaker, there is no extension. Just the 400 + the mythical Pokemon add-ins later.

Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield File Size Seemingly Revealed Ahead Of Release

GameFreak is also known for wasting tons of space because of poor work performance.
For Sun and Moon instead of having one model with swap-able features they made a new model for each variant of Lily.

Re: Pokémon GO Players Can Now Dress Up As Bulbasaur, Charmander And Squirtle
They should this type of stuff in Sword and Shield.
