Scarlet and Violet

Just saw the trailer for the next Pokémon core games, set to come out late this year (probably right on time for Xmas shopping, because Capitalism).

First impression: Dear sweet mercy, Nintendo staff, please unionize. A game a year cannot be healthy! (And honestly, considering Sword and Shield/the Diamond and Pearl remakes? Probably isn't that fantastic for quality, either.)

Second impression: ( Cut for minor spoilers )

Anyway, I'll be interested to see where the starters end up going, design-wise!
