Pokémon X beta gameplay

self explanatory

8:32 I don't think this is what they mean when people said they want Pokemon to go back to 2D.

Even in a beta state, seeing gameplay of this game with just a camera being pointed at a 3DS again all these years later feels kinda nostalgic ngl

7:38 THEY HAD THEM, THEY HAD BATTLE POSES.

WHAT HAPPENED.

I remember when i played Pokemon X in 2013. Those were the times.

I love the feel of the beta battle songs. theyre much more upbeat and gen 5-like.
For that it is a good work how they gave them a whole new gen 6 style. But this more upbeat, rough, epic sound I like better

I loved the dynamism of the battle UI, with the indicators floating on screen and following the mon like in PL Arceus. I think they were removed because they were too much for the 3DS.

that pikachu battle pose, damn, looks great

The pikachu battle animations were so good :(

Fun Fact: the names of the rivals are all placeholders. Shauna's name is ゲンキコ (Litterally "lively girl"), Serena's name is ライバル ("rival"), Trevor's name isオトコノコ ("boy") and Tierno's パワオ (not sure what that means honestly)

17:30 - ah, the original camera angle for Route 3, I remember that being in the reveal trailer but when the game released it was top down instead. I'm guessing that was a last minute change, then.

Fletchling hit the player so hard in the face he turned into a boy

I love that intro animation of an angry silhouette rushing through the grass.

Btw if anyone was wondering, no you cannot transfer pokemon from the beta to a mainline game unsurprisingly, if u didn't see, at the start of the game u automatically have a pikachu, snivy, dratini, and an exeggutor in ur party, but sadly the save file type is not the same as usual pokemon games so no save file editors can read it, unless u can somehow convert the files into one big sav file, the pokemon are stuck.

lebron james caught turning kanji off in his JRPG save files

[kobwmoose]

Anyone else think the trainer images in battle were placeholder and then eventually they just rolled with it?

Also the lag and loading times are just 👌

Pokémon X my beloved! It’s interesting to see what was changed between the beta and the finished version of the game.

[cosmikpowa]

Noticing that they used the Gen 5 pixel art for the mons in the party menu.

I like the shadow while encountering a Pokémon. Feels more lively.

Pikachus stance in battle wasent lifeless, ok seriously what the hell happened, the beta had life in it, pikachus stance wasent a thing, the rivals had small but very meaningful animations and life in them, seriously what the hell happeend
