    Funny you mention that because the player base and general interest of the game pretty much plummeted after the first two weeks.

    I was interested in trying Palworld until I found out it didn't have a story to play through.

    the story of almost every "core series" pocketmons game: Start in home town, meet a professor named after tree, get starter 'mon (almost always fire, grass, or water types), go out on an unsupervised adventure, get gym badges, thwart the local villain team and their boss, defeat the rival, take on the 四天王 and champion, become champion, then the possible postgame stuff?

    At least there have been unique stories, like the plots of Colosseum and XD.

    no... :confused:

    Even if they are repetitive, they can still be fun.

    (I still think ORAS are best in the "core series".)

    Legends Arceus broke away from the formula and was really good.

    Yay! We got a Legends Kalos game! I really, really wanted one, but I was afraid we would have to do Unova first but I guess not! Kalos always needed more attention since they got screwed over from getting a third game due to Gamefreak at the time putting their resources to making non-Pokemon games to see if something stuck (nothing did).

    A Legends Kalos game could have taken place at any time due to how rich the history of France was but it appears like it is taking place around the time of Legends: Arceus when France was being redeveloped (which was very controversial IRL due to them having to destroy a bunch of old buildings people were attached to). I hope we get to explore the catacombs like what real life Paris has. I bet you anything that there might be something significant to the plot down there if they include them.

    The teaser had a pretty futuristic vibe to it. Are we sure they're even doing Kalos's past? I mean, I will be fucking ecstatic if they are but honestly I'm just happy to be getting another Legends game.

    There is a real life historical era of Paris where they did redevelop it so yes. Also, the buildings in that trailer if you look carefully looked oldish. We didn't actually see any gameplay of it.

    I've seen that argument but I'm probably not going to be convinced that they're not doing that "but future" until we get more details. I do HOPE that we get past Kalos though. I'm a slut for PokeWorld History.

    What if a dinosaur game but with pocketmons? Like in the prehistoric world?

    (like a vidya where a Celebi takes the MC back in time for whatever reason)
