On the right side of the game's start screen, the menu bar appears.

The Pokémon 3D world uses an auto-save mode.

Whether you successfully pass the level or return, it will be automatically recorded.

So there's no such thing as continuing and restarting, there's only one option in the game menu: press A to start playing.

Of course, there are multiple files for the save, if it is a new file, the first one will be recorded by default, and if you want to change to another save later, after clicking [Start Game], there will be a drop-down option for players to choose.

Now several people are starting the game for the first time, so it went straight to save 1.

The game has officially begun.

The screen suddenly went black.

This is followed by a mandatory opening CG (which can be skipped after the second week):

The beginning of the picture.

The Pokémon's cheerful BGM rang out.

In a sunny green forest, a herd of seasonal deer runs through the mountains.

It was followed by the Muk eagle passing by in the sun.

The wings cast a swift shadow on the ground, startling the greedy chinchilla below.

Greedy chinchillas with long fluffy tails jumped to the trees with hazelnuts in their hands.

A group of little greedy chinchillas raised their heads to look at the sky, and then followed by the wind blowing the leaves.

At the same time, countless shuttlecock grasses were blown into the sky, and they were fluttering one after another, like snow.

The camera falls from the sky, above the trees, and from the top of the trees to the grass.

In the distance, a Kirbymon is sleeping soundly, while Pikachu and a few of his friends are eating on the grass in the distance.

Unlike Uesugi and what they imagined was-

This paragraph is completely expressed in the form of 2D animation, which is more like the feeling of watching a cartoon.

During this CG playback, the four children present were screaming all the time, jumping and jumping and screaming out their names every time a Pokémon appeared.

When the camera settled and Pikachu appeared in the picture, several people were even more excited.

"Pickup pickup."

Pikachu grabbed a ketchup with his little paws and squeezed it into his mouth.

As soon as I raised my head, my mouth was stained with ketchup.

"Pika Pika~" Pikachu looked satisfied, stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.

Reiko also followed the voice of Pikachu, "Pika Pika, Pika ~ (@^_^@)~"

"Ah~ so cute!"

"I want a Pikachu too!"

And the little fire dragon was stuffing a hamburger into his mouth, and as soon as he ate it, he spewed out a mouthful of fire.

"Roar~"

The frog seeds were crawling next to them in the sun, and the seeds on their backs seemed to be showing signs of germination.

Jenny Turtle hugged the burger and nibbled on the side.

Although there are no people in the picture, it is clear from the picnic tables and the food on the tables that their owners are probably nearby.

At this moment, Jenny Turtle, who was hiding under the shade of a tree and eating hamburgers, suddenly raised his head, and his eyes showed a look of panic.

The camera cuts from its eyes to the sky.

I saw a flame burning in the white clouds, falling rapidly.

"Ahh It's a shooting star! Fat Bear pointed to the TV and screamed!

"Danger!"

Reiko folded her hands on her chest and prayed for the Pokémon.

The meteor streaked through the sky impartially and smashed in this direction.

The fireball grew rapidly, and the sky above the forest was rendered in a fiery red color.

Several Pokémon had panicked looks in their eyes, but they didn't have time to react for a while.

"Pickup!"

Pikachu is furry all over his body and his tail is erected.

"Boom!"

The whole picture is white.

……

The BGM suddenly changed into an epic animated music with a sense of grandeur and shock.

Just when everyone was worried about the Pokémon, Pikachu and them were actually involved in a wonderful vortex.

The swirls are colorful and sparkle with a strange sheen.

Immediately after that, Pikachu's entire body began to swell, as if it was originally a flattened plasticine that was pulled up by a hand, and the head and body grew from the 2D plane and then upwards, and finally became a 3D image.

Several other Pokémon have similar changes.

Seeing this, several friends were extremely excited.

"Ahh It's changed, it's changed! ”

"From a 2D Pokémon to a 3D Pokémon!"

"It's on, it's on! It's so much fun, isn't it? ”

The children were full of infinite joy, and this was the first time they had seen such a novel performance.

This change from 2D to 3D is not only about the plot, but also about showing how powerful the art and technical team of pokeni is.

Although there is still a galaxy separated from Qing Zhiyuan's previous life in terms of effect, who has made the whole world not open his eyes at this point in time?

So a few children were stunned when they saw the effect of this transition from 2D to 3D.

"It's amazing, did it go from 2D to 3D all of a sudden?"

"Hmm."

When the vortex of space-time closes, the screen turns from white to normal again.

Only this time, the whole world has changed-

It's still a green forest, but the trees, flowers, and stones in the forest, and even the shuttlecock grass that is still flying in the sky, all have a three-dimensional sense of 3D.

The game's graphics suddenly become much more refined.

The colors are also richer.

The sun's rays in the distance shine on the lens, and there is also a halo effect of rainbow bubbles, which makes people's eyes hurt for a while.

The camera spun around in the sky above before finally falling back to Pikachu and the others.

"Pickup Pickup ......"

Confused, several Pokémon staggered to their feet and looked around, still unable to understand.

And just then, a shadow fell in front of them.

"Ga~~"

The little fire dragon instinctively protected several other friends behind him, and then breathed fire straight into his mouth, fully guarded.

The camera pans around to reveal an owl rider standing in front of them.

It is truly literally meant by the Owl Rider.

This character is considered to be created by Pokeni's team for the Pokémon 3D world.

With a knight's armor, a shield and a sword in his hands, and a pair of large wings behind him, he looks majestic.

Although the number of faces of the model is small, you can probably see that it looks like a knight.

"Wow, is this a new Pokémon?" The skinny monkey asked, confused.

"I guess so."

"I heard that after the release of 3D Pokémon, pokeni will add all these new Pokémon to the next Pokémon in the future."

"Wow, that's awesome."

……

The Owl Knight placed his talons on his chest and saluted a few.

"Goo, goo......"

It talks to Pokémon from the 2D world.

It's a pity that it's not human language, so the children who play the game look confused.

I think this scene is really real and funny.

"Isn't it possible to communicate in the Pokémon's own language the whole time?"

"Then how can we understand the plot?"

"But that's the charm of Pokémon, and it's weird if Pokémon talk to each other, right?"

In short, a few children laughed heartily, and then continued to watch the next plot.

After the owl rider cooed with them, the color of the screen suddenly changed.

From color to black and white.

At the same time, the picture suddenly returns to the memories of the Owl Rider's past.

This is a world with many Pokémon called Bodal.

In this world, Pokémon are displayed in 3D.

At the same time, in Pokémon, there is a mythical beast named Ophelia, who guards the peace of the world.

Ophelia has white feathers, resembling a phoenix with broad white wings, except for a rainbow-colored horn on its head.

And the tail is shaped like a spreading branch.

The mythical beast Ophelia is really beautiful.

It cares for the growth of Pokémon in the forest, and at the same time maintains order in the whole world.

And one day, a black shadow [Luciphaus] descended on this world.

From the silhouette, it looks like a ferocious beast emitting black flames.

The black shadow attacked Ophelia and infected it at the same time, and a terrible and evil virus swept through the whole of Portera at once.

And in this case, Ophelia, who still has a trace of sanity, used the last of her strength to pull Pikachu and them into this world before she completely lost control, and entrusted the owl rider to lead them.

Pokémon who come from the 2D world don't seem to be infected by this strange virus, and may be able to find true magical powers and defeat Lucifes.

The Pikachus are the last hope for Portala.

……

The entire segment is presented in the form of animated CG with narration, and it took the art team of Pokeni nearly a month to create this CG.

Fortunately, the effect is also quite good.

When several children saw this, they all felt their blood boiling.

The story is actually quite simple, even a bit old-fashioned.

The saviors chosen by God have come to a 3D world and embarked on the road of the brave to defeat the Demon King.

It's just that this time the brave ones have been replaced by Pokémon.

Qing Zhiyuan and the Pokémon team also struggled for a long time in the plot design at the beginning, whether to use some more ups and downs, anti-transformation plots to make the game more distinctive.

In the end, the president decided to keep everything simple.

Pokémon 3D World is for gamers of all ages, especially kids.

It is first and foremost to be able to make them understand the plot and reduce unnecessary obscure metaphors and reversals.

At the same time, the simple routine plot is the most effective, indicating that the vast majority of people eat this set.

The most important thing is that it doesn't matter what the plot of the Pokémon 3D world is, the plot is for the service of the game itself, as long as it can justify itself and bring out the follow-up level gameplay.

You look at the Super Mario series in Ren Heaven next door, which has been doing it for a hundred years to defeat the dragon and rescue the princess.

It's the same with Dragon Quest.

It shows that this routine plot is right, the most suitable, and the most effective.

So, after some discussion, in the end, the president made the decision and decided the plot of the game.

……

In fact, as Qing Zhiyuan envisioned, when several children played here, they did not feel bored because of the story [cliché], but felt that they were about to play the role of savior and shoulder the heavy responsibility.

The picture changes back to normal colors, and the camera returns to the present-

The Owl Knight finished telling everything and saluted Pikachu again.

"Goo."

"Pickup pickup."

Pikachu patted his chest.

Fat Bear translated, "Great, Owl Rider, we'll take care of the rest." ”

The CG plays and the camera returns to the actual game.

There are 4 player screens on the screen, with tooltips in the middle:

"Please use the left and right arrow keys or the joystick left and right to select the character you want to operate."

In order to guide the player, there is also a corresponding gamepad picture on the screen.

"Oh, the joystick, huh?"

Uesugi nodded and began to flick the joystick.

Several children soon fell into the battle of who would choose [Pikachu].

After some quarrels, it was decided to rock-paper-scissors to decide who would choose first.

In the end, Uesugi got Pikachu, Reiko got the Wonderful Frog Seed, the Fat Bear Little Fire Dragon, and the Skinny Monkey used the Jenny Turtle.

……

The game has officially begun.

Several characters appear in a row on the map.

This is the Pokémon 3D big world, the first layer of the game.

The whole first layer is a very simple big map covered with green vegetation.

Although it is said to be a large map, it is actually quite simple, about the size of a flying chess board used to play a board game.

In the meadow, from the starting point, there is a cube standing on top of the meadow.

The cube is a condensed version of an orchard with three five-pointed stars above it, none of which have yet to light up.

This orchard is actually the first level of this first layer.

……

So as the captain (handle No. 1), Uesugi led everyone to the location of the first level according to the operation guide.

Before you get to the level, here's a beginner's guide.

Pokeni's beginner's guide is quite good, first of all, it shows you how to use the left stick to move forward, backward, left, right, and left.

Then tell Uesugi to say, "Use the right stick to turn the perspective." ”

Uesugi nodded and turned as instructed.

The world in the whole TV set also rotated.

"Wow!"

When the friends saw this, they let out an exclamation in unison.

"Oh my God, can this game turn the world around?"

"It's the first time I've played a game like this, it's amazing!"

"I see! That's 3D! The fat bear roared categorically.
