Young imps: don't miss out on the 3ds library because of back injuries. Always lift the Xbox controller with your legs

When you die you have to do 7 years in purgatory for every time you abonded a starter

It only took 20 years but I haven't been interested in pokemon for a while, that said the grass monkey is the clear winner of the Starter Wars

I thought it was kinda weird that all the starters looked so similar but I also haven't played a Pokemon game in 20 years so I don't really know what the starters are supposed to look like.

They're not worse than the black and white starters.

Might be interesting... HG/SS were the last really good Pokémon games though so my hopes aren’t too high.

I liked Sun and Moon. I didn't play HG/SS though (I skip all the remakes)

i liked sun/moon at the time but playing ultra sun lately is making me like it less. black/white are the best ones

i thought sun/moon was the best so far and ultra is reaffirming that. hg/ss is epic though but i can't ever go back to no xpshare

HG is my favorite by a long shot but I skipped gens 3 and 4, have barely made any progress in X, and am holding off on SM until I beat X, so mine may not be an educated opinion.

I am kind of disappointed that your Pokémon won’t follow along behind you, I loved that in HG and hoped that its presence in Let’s Go was a good sign. But I guess this one probably has like 8x as many Pokémon they’d need to animate as either of those.

OR/AS are good remakes. You can freefly around in the sky on your latias/latios and theres a ton of sidestuff to do
