Sure thing, here we go—straight from my brain to your screen, no filter or frills.
Ever tried to figure out the best Pokémon to have in your squad? Yeah, good luck with that. Sometimes it’s all about that one weird Pokémon you’d never think of, doing some move that just wrecks everyone. But when it comes to Pokémon GO—nope, sorry, you’re stuck with the obvious choices.
Niantic, you know them, they made Pokémon’s mobile version, decided we don’t need all the complicated stuff. Bye-bye, like, half the stuff that makes Pokémon battles cool. Abilities? Held Items? Type immunities? Vanished. Which kinda sucks for creatures like Accelgor. It’s like they had this killer Speed in the original games, but in GO? Reduced to just a memory. And I bet the devs could totally fix this if they tried.
Taking a side trip now, maybe to complain or just because I forgot my train of thought—acceleration, that’s the core of so many Pokémon. Speed is how you take command, you know? But then again, sometimes you need more than just flashy speed. Like, if your moves can’t back it up, good luck winning anything. Okay, back on track. Accelgor’s speed was its thing—145, okay! That’s crazy fast. But in Pokémon GO? That advantage just… vaporizes. Bring Speed back, and maybe things change for the better—even for Accelgor.
You hear me? Like, listen up Niantic, why not?
Picture this, you’re in a battle, and speed doesn’t make you quicker on the draw like in original Pokémon. But what if it changed how fast you could slam those moves? Speed could be this secret weapon, not going first, but going faster and more often! And hey, why keep speed locked in battles? Maybe Pokémon GO should let fast Pokémon help you explore quicker. I mean, if I had a fast buddy, shouldn’t they help me earn candy without walking a marathon? Makes sense, right? Travel hacks courtesy of your Pokémon! Oh, and imagine doing less legwork to hatch those eggs. Sounds like a dream.
Oh, look at me wander, sorry but not sorry—of course, Speed Forme Deoxys would probably rule supreme here, Captain Speedy McSpeedface at 180 Speed. Anyway—where was I again?
Yes! I mean, adding Speed into GO could be wild. Sure, it might shake up battles like, a lot. Totally changes how you’d play. But is that even an issue? Pokémon GO’s been tossing in new features like Mega Evolutions and whatever else, like any responsible game looking to keep things fresh. Why not slap on speed now too?
Sure, I doubt anyone at Niantic’s lost sleep mulling this over. But what a plot twist adding Speed would be, right? Some overlooked Pokémon finally getting their moment.
Oh, this might sound scattered, but there you have it—my two, uh, maybe six cents!
