I genuinely wanna know.

Why didn't they just save him for Kingsley?

but if it's just this man in robes, or worse, robes with just long hair...who the fuck was in charge of casting here? (2/2)

I wanna know who made the casting call. This man cannot look like Severus Snape, who has his description IN THE BOOKS as pale, sallow-skinned, hook-nosed, with curtains of greasy black hair. If the make-up department somehow pulls off a miracle, so be it (1/2)

Pokemon doesn't set patterns - not anymore, and the ones we used to see were likely coincidental. It's like people demanding this game be set in the past, and upset it isn't. Just because PLA did it doesn't mean PLZA will.

In my mind the ultimate goal of this format is to have scenarios like Monster Hunter where two giant Pokemon can spawn in the same area and have detailed enough behavior to interact with each-other (big kaiju battles!) but that could just be me daydreaming and not realistic.

I think they're trying to figure out in modern Pokemon games how to allow the game to be open world but at the same time handle randomized Pokemon spawns in a satisfying way. Arceus had unique interactions because the spawns were consistent but it had each camp be totally separate as a result.

Card may be good but these things bother me from a lore perspective so much. I have to assume Terapagos is literally making new Pokemon
