Words from game geeks
Iwao explained: “First of all, in the “Pokémon” series battle rulesIt’s been around for a long time, gradually changing with each new game. At the time, some people had been playing the series for decades, going back to the red-green era, and we didn’t want to force them to move to a new version with different rules. ”
“There’s always this concern at Game Freak: We want to face new challenges in the franchise, but at the same time We don’t want to abandon the combat system we currently use. Therefore, we feel it is appropriate to maintain the current combat system and make it playable in the long term. I think the idea of creating a game like this was the real starting point for the development of Pokémon Champions. ”
