Hoshino: Yes, as a Pokémon fan, I naturally understand the various discussions currently taking place within the fan community. I can totally relate to all of it. Regarding the graphics and gameplay, we’ve truly tried to do our best in both areas. The battle system is a huge focus. And what we’re really concentrating on is ensuring fairness—since it’s such a competitive battle game—and that the traditional game system works, and that we have that firmly under control. But as far as the visual side, the graphics, is concerned, I have experience from working on Pokkén Tournament, and one of my goals for that game was actually to make the Pokémon game with the best graphics at the time. |
