Upcoming Unite Update Chat

Never mind!

I'm also looking forward to seeing those updates, but not the changes in learning moves and other updates which uses my… real money.

@Hades0918, Hmmm... (Ok, why does everything lately make me want to hmmm? I'll ponder that later.)

You can probably tell I'm not to happy about one of the changes, thus my post asking for them to add an option in settings and not making it mandatory to preselect the move paths for our pokemon (to let us choose as we level up during each match as is the current standard).

However yes, some of the upcoming changes just sound different and could be good changes. Like the solo learning journey thingy. I'll be doing that to help earn license points faster even though I probably don't need to "learn" about certain things. I look at it as something to play when I don't feel like ranked match or my friends aren't available to battle with.

So, your question about move paths? I believe, and I may be mistaken, it will be more like the Mega Charizard X and Y.

If we compare the attack/move options available to regular Charizard, we would notice that regular Charizard has move options upon reaching certain levels and once you select an option, you can not change to the other move. So let's say regular Charizard has 6 move options plus a Unite move. You will only use 4 of those moves during a match, assuming you level up far enough to unlock your Unite move. The other 2 move choices not chosen remain unavailable during the remainder of the match, however you can select them during the next match if you would prefer to use them over the ones you previously chose. (Like choosing between Bitter Blade or Psycho Cut at level 5 and between Phantom Force or Flame Charge at level 7 for Ceruledge).

So regular Charizard has 6 moves HOWEVER Mega Charizard X and Y both only have 4 preselected moves. If you choose to play with either Mega Char X or Y, your move path has been predetermined by the programers. You do not select in game or in match or even prior to the match which moves you would like to use because the Mega Chars do not have an optional move set or path. That's how those megas work currently.

I believe what they are saying is that going forward ALL NEW Pokemon will be similar to Mega Charizards, meaning they will have a predetermined move set without move options, so no second set of moves to choose from (either pregame or in game).

Maybe that is why they will be charging less license points (earned daily and through other methods) and/or aeos coins (money) for the soon to be released new Pokemon? Perhaps because 4 moves instead of 6 takes less programming so costs them less too? Hmmmm...…

Honestly, I like having options and choices. Just like how we get to build our own TCG decks... customization to how we choose to play has a value to me, even if it is as simple as having six moves to choose from in game.

Lol this post has 13 disagrees. @TPCi_GarbageKing please dont change how it is right now we love being able to select our moves in game!
