dck Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 (edited) Hi, I personally never played gen IV, so aside from making it so we can catch garchomps, toxicroaks and offering new farm spots (non-safari chanseys for one), what does sinnoh actually add to the game? I've found myself a bit burnt out since all the appeal in endgame for me turned out to be LC tournaments and doing battle frontier doubles with a friend in co-op. Will sinnoh maybe offer something that can be done with other people as a sort of cooperation thing? I'll probably enjoy going through the story and all, but I'm wondering if there's any exclusive multiplayer feature the zone will offer or if it'll be mostly just another area like kanto with not much going on that is mechanically new. If not I guess it'll be taking a break until dungeons release for me, but I'm curious since I never did experience gen IV stuff and for all I know there could be some cool stuff in it.

Stickbow0 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I think it'll just add a new region to explore, and then new pokemon to use in comp once its been completed. Link to comment
BoltBlades12 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 PvP is super stale and predictable as it is. So sinnoh should freshen it up a bit. Link to comment

Cacha Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Not for me. Both the fun mechanics of single player from hoenn and unova are not enabled. The vast majority of the particular IV pokémon are already in unova, rhyperior, magnezone, lucario, magmortar, only garchomp, which to be honest, without their hidden ability, stinks. Luxray, drapion and the vast majority of those that you can find new, are NU or untitered. Link to comment
Quakkz Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 nothing tbh, thats why everybody is so disappointed that dungeons were delayed. but you gotta make those paying chinese casuals happy, you know LipeHaru, Megumin, Dann and 4 others 7 Link to comment

dck Posted August 19, 2019 Author Share Posted August 19, 2019 In case someone else is wondering, I looked around a bit and found there's a battle frontier with double coop battles in every mode in Gen IV: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Battle_Frontier_(Generation_IV) If enabled that'd be nice since at least Battle Factory should be functional given that it's already working for Hoenn, just with no multiplayer support. Hopefully the others would be too but I imagine it could go either way given how weird some of their mechanics are. Definitely would like to hear about what can be expected from this though.

ThePrettyPetard Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 If they also had the underground part of sinnoh it could be fairly dope with the large player base here TohnR 1 Link to comment

I would imagine more like a hundred people faffing abouts in multiple channel actually. The idea remains pretty dope if we got mini game in there. Link to comment
Gl00n Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Is there any estimate at all for the release of sinnoh? With all functions or whithout^ Only saw old posts and that there were some days of pts, is there any update about it? Comp wise, infernape also joins in :) Link to comment

You can do linked doubles in the Battle Frontier in Hoenn Link to comment

Mivadeth Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 1- In original Gen IV games we had a underground mini-game where you could set traps to ther players ( unoffensive traps, like they send you flying behind the wall and that stuff ), you could have a secret base, and even find fossiles and other items. 2- Adding new Pokémon to the game is always a positive thing ( Sinnoh starters, Drapion, Drifblim, Toxicroak, Gastrodon... ) 3- A brand new story for all players who never played this generation ( and let me tell you Gen IV is awesome ) 4- Probably new vanities ( I hope so xD ) Link to comment

Underground might not happen, we didnt get it on PTS if im not mistaken. Story is what matters the least if you ask me, considering it lasts a whooping 6 to 9 hours. The real big thing is the introduction of gen4 mons into our meta if you ask me, both for pve and pvp players. Link to comment
Akshit Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 The most important thing that it will add to the game irrespective of whatever features it brings: more players = more money :) Link to comment
