Pokémon x/y imo is the best ones I’ve played. all the new features like GTS were super novel and wonder trade was pure anarchy

my favorite remain the silver/gold remakes but those also hit when I was in college and literally everyone had their poke walkers on them for like three straight months lol

i liked sword shields story but every fight felt like an eternal slog of paralysis and healing

for me, i like exploring in pokemon the most. arceus looked like a pass to me, but i have trouble getting motivated into a new pokemon as well, because then i end up losing 100 hours of my life in a blink of an eye once i do

heartgold/soulsilver are incredible. Nintendo/gamefreak do a really good job with their generational remakes. I’ve heard the remakes of diamond/pearl are also very very good

s/v took the best parts of arceus and let’s go and based on the Pokémon thread, is on the same engine as BOTW or something along those lines

I don’t actually own a switch to be able to bat for the new games though

carry on then

bdsp felt too by the numbers for me, especially compared to oras which added some great stuff after the e4. it’s not bad, I just wish they’d done more

pokemons status effects are always super annoying because most of them are rng about how bad they'll affect you. tbh the only single player jrpg I've ever legit enjoyed status effects in is dragon quest xi

Late to the party but yeah these controllers kick rear end for switch, pc, phones, whatever. Think I've got three now just because they are so quick to sync to wherever I want to play real quick and have a solid battery in them.

I have never owned a Pokemon game.

I'm not saying that in a dismissive way. I think Pokemon are cute and I do know a surprising bit about the whole universe. But I have never owned one of the games. I think it's because I have also never owned a video game console (parents wouldn't buy us a machine that was only made for playing games)

tbh if you have no nostalgia for the series just play something like smt or persona instead. s/v are really fun but they're clearly aimed at literal children, p much the only challenge in them is that it's easy to fight someone and realize they're 20 levels above you lol

a pokemon MMO would have been huge, but i understand financially why they didn't

on the other hand, a goon gym would be the worst thing ever
