Evolution Cancel doesn't work
Ok, I'm done with this game. I'm sure people are aware of the most expensive Tem right now and as most people I wanted the middle evolution step for my team. When it got to that point I didn't think much by it pressed the cancel button and nothing happened.
Now I have a Tem I never wanted and weeks of money invested in something worth nothing, just because the cancel button didn't work.

There is no point for me to start rebuilding weeks of playtime at this point.
This is just a heads up for people that may run into the same problem, because for me this is it. Maybe see you again after the game comes out, but goodbye for now.

The game doesn't have chat. Literally can not ask anyone in game yet.

It isn't listed anywhere in the game either.

Having to go outside of the game to find out the controls to the game is, by definition, poor design.

Pokemon was also poorly designed at the beginning, so using "Pokemon does it too" doesn't really hold water. At least they have the excuse of having been designed in an era where these types of messages were rare and memory was precious.

And again, for a game that is trying so hard to distinguish itself somehow from Pokemon, where it's taken 90% of its mechanics from, the argument of having had to play a completely different game to understand the controls to this one is also poor design.
So your saying a game that does'nt tell you to press w to move forward is poor design, got it..

as for no chat in game..yeah there is this free thing called a discord that for some reason alot of folks seem to refuse for no good reason in the current time that the game does'nt have a in chat system.. There is also..steam discussions..like this thread : p

No, that's very clearly what YOU keep saying. WASD movement (which I generally don't use, actually) is pretty universal to most PC games.

Press and hold something to cancel evolution is a bit more obscure, and sure, I guess you should just assume everything about Temtem is exactly like Pokemon, because you'd be right in 95% of cases, but I feel that's an issue in itself.

These fans are here like "omg it's totally different than Pokemon" and then when you point out something that could be a little clearer, they say "omg it's exactly like Pokemon hurr durr haven't u ever played Pokemon??"

And somehow, they don't see the irony in that.

PS) The game actually does tell you the movement controls in the config menu, so...

The only way to find out that you can cancel the evolutions is by reading signs in pokemon. It's been like that since red and blue.

also please tell us which TemTem you mean, which one is better unevolved than the evolved.

I think, it's about Raibers evolutions as they switch ATK and SPATK. Raize has 46ATK/69 SPATK while Raican has 77 ATK/51 SPATK. And its strongest attack is Fire Tornado which is a special attack.
Ok thank you ! O-O

I have no problem with people making fun of me for wasting over 100k for something I should have tested before it came to that, but you should also remember what you would do when something similar to that happened to you. The game is not supposed to be hardcore Path of Exile or Diablo where you lose your character, if you make one mistake, especially if it is a mistake that shouldn't even happen.
Would it be that hard to create an item to reverse evolutions? We already have items to reset TVs, so I don't see much difference in giving players an item to reverse the evolution.

Whipping out the fkin Devolution spray from the Pokemon TCG

That'd actually be kind of neat--

Game should say to press X to cancel.

After that, game should also say to continue holding X to cancel.

You shouldn't have to make guesses or assumptions about this at all. It should be made crystal clear to every player, new or old.

To cancel the evolution you need to hold "z" for about 3 seconds and not only press it.
