One of the most alluring aspects of Pokemon games has always been the fact that players can choose which critters to use based on which ones they like or which ones perform better in battle. Whatever the reason, the simple fact that players can plan their teams beforehand or even take things as they come is great, especially if a given Pokemon game has plenty of options thanks to an extended Pokedex, like in Pokemon Sword and Shield. With Pokemon Legends: Arceus, players still can't pre-plan their team due to the lack of information regarding all the possible Pokemon in-game, especially considering there will be new forms and evolutions as well.
