8CN: The official rules have appeared online for the Pokemon VGC 2014 and they've added a couple changes. While some players are complaining, are they really that different from before?
Pokémon’s shift to 3D was a big mistake, as the series’ roots in 2D design make it difficult to transfer important game mechanics into a 3D overworld.
why do other games pull off 3D monster collecting JRPG games just fine? Look at Jade Cocoon and Shin Megami Tensei for examples.

Even more than a decade removed from launch, the system’s library has so many titles that feel as fresh today as they did back at release. While it was hard to narrow down, these 30 Nintendo 3DS games are emblematic of the system’s success."
The Pokemon Company has a solid thing going right now. Well, it’s been going on for a while, actually, but it has been a while since a new typing has been introduced to the popular monster-taming series. The latest one, Fairy type, was introduced back in Generation VI (Pokemon X & Y), so it does seem like it is time to bring in a new one. Check out Jason Capp's article for more.
Interesting, the main goal is to cut out hacked pokemon, a bit dumb, since alot of people like to trade their competitive pokemon from game to game, and just to start a new team like that takes ALOT of time. You have to EV train, make sure you have the right nature, ability, attacks, breeding stats/moves, level them up to 100, and even then, it isn't guaranteed to be a good pokemon. I can see why people would be mad.
