Have you been playing Pokemon without me!?! I kind of want to get a flashcart to play 3rd gen romhacks and such on the actual Gameboy.

I have not played it since gold and silver when I was a child(If you don't count Touhoumon). I liked them but they all seem strange now and I dont't think the base gameplay has changed all that much. Maybe I will get back into it one day though.

>>30067I'd recommend playing Gen 4 (Diamond/Pearl/Platinum but you should just play Platinum) to ease back into the series. It adds a lot of Gen 2 features back into the game too. You have lots of catching up to do...
>>30066When the options were laid out there really was no other choice to me. Maybe the monkey on the 2nd run, since I liked the old Chimchar line...

>>30179Thanks, though I don't actually have a 3ds so I had to get a PC port but there were no seeds for it. So I am playing Black 2 because I could find seeds for it.

Some of these Pokemon are completely useless. I thought it was all level based with no meta but it does not appear to be.
>>30229Yes. I'm seeing a few first generation Pokemons in the game too, does every Pokemon have them from all previous gens or is it just first gen Pokemon that will reappear in every game?
No.30260
>>30248Usually pokemon reappear from all previous generations, but gen 1 is definitely the most popular one. Black/White was a rare exception where you could only catch gen 5 pokemon throughout most of the game, and you had to complete the main story before you could transfer pokemon from previous games. Black 2/White 2 changed that though and made it easy to catch a bunch of older pokemon.
>Some of these Pokemon are completely useless.Yeah, but I like using weak pokemon, I think it adds to the challenge and just makes the games more fun for me.

I'm gonna catch all the Pokenens!

I finished Black 2 and then finished x so then I was going to play Ultra moon but I really don't like it so far, I don't think I can. So far black 2 has been the best, maybe I will play the one from before that now.

>>30476I remmeber a lot of people had trouble starting Sun/Moon because of all the dialog and cutscenes in the beginning; try X/Y if you aren't interested in reading, its a very 'minimal' game in that respect.

I decided to start with emerald. As I've played through it I realized I probably never played it and only watched my cousins playing it. I'm having fun and just beat the third gym! I have a long way to go before I catch up to the main games though...

To make it more interesting I decided to make my first playthrough of Sword a nuzlocke.
My pokenens keep dying ;_;

>>34113I thought I would have but it looks like I did not mention it at all. I played it soon after it came out. I don't like Marnie but that's due to her part shaved head.
I thought the game was good, the only problem is that it seems that some Pokemon are overpowered and do a lot to each other while some are quite useless. For example, the bit where you have to fight somebody(I forget who but rival would make sense) outside the rock gym was hard for me even though we were fairly close in level, he had Pokemon that kept either one shooting mine or very near to it. Conversely, my Hatterene was able to do the same to pretty much anything, even Pokemon strong against psychic.
I liked the game over all though. All though the League of four/Champion battle was not as great as usual which was a bit of a shame as that is actually one of my favourite parts of the Pokemon games. I don't allow myself to heal and so I have to do it all in one go which means I have to think of all kinds of strategies to get through.

Really excited for the pearl remake nen, I had a lot of fun playing the original game and this remake looks to be just as charming.

I had a lot of fun playing the new pearl.
The elite 4 was really difficult this time around. I had to level up and pick some better Pokemon types to beat it instead of using the ones I liked which was dumb. I can understand making them that challenging for the rematches but locking the national dex behind that was an annoying difficulty spike in an otherwise fun game

>>48158I wouldn't mind trying this but I'm not going to buy a switch for it. I believe pokemon is held back by the hardware at this point, something like a PS5 would really make the open world of pokemon pop. I understand it's a nintendo title and it will never happen but I really like how pokemon went yamato again and that made my mind wander
