Hey, form of like Pokemon Legends

A McDonalds Pokemon commercial bought slightly out of hand in Singapore, heralding the arrival of Pokemon Violet and Pokemon…Violet? Proper on: are we certain Nintendo bought the announcement right?

As noticed by NintendoSoup, the upcoming duo of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have been lumped collectively as simply Violet within the Singapore advert, which adorns each tray at this specific location (and sure extra). Apparently, the collab additionally includes a “Charizard McPepper Burger,” “Eevee Pies,” and “Pikachu and Scorbunny Frappes.” Oh, and it’ll have a buying and selling card recreation tie-in.

This foolish snafu had me desirous about how a lot I appreciated plenty of high-level decisions in Pokemon Legends. After all, there’s room for enchancment there. However along with the brand new seize mechanic; the concept of simply shopping for one recreation and being accomplished with it was a aid, particularly for completionists.

The continuation of the twin recreation methodology has change into a hot-button problem lately, particularly for the reason that collection moved off of its unique dwelling on handhelds. “More cash” is a chief contributor to preserving that gravy practice rolling, however the authentic Pink and Blue thought of encouraging buying and selling through the neighborhood did make sense. However with chilly on-line buying and selling as commonplace, the logistics of pushing two variations with each technology makes much less and fewer sense. It’s probably not going to cease anytime quickly, however extra Legends releases can be a good compromise.
