  • With Pokemon X and Y being a whole decade old (yeah, i know) I wanted to see if my memory served me right. Are they good games, or bad games? With Pokemon Legends ZA right around the corner I put my research hat on and literally did everything.. so enjoy the ride! i'd love to make more like this in future...

      "Making sure not to overlevel *too much*" he's at pretty similar levels to what a casual player would be if they were catching even just a decent amount of pokemon for the dex, or if they made sure to battle every trainer along the way. Purposefully being under or at the level of the gym leaders is usually a nuzlocke rule, and this run definitely is not one. He's just trying to experience the game like a completionist might have back when the game came out

    I don't think X and Y are bad games. To me, they just feel rushed and incomplete. It feels like something is missing and it just feels unsatisfying.

    XY is a special game for me; for it introduced my favorite Pokémon, Malamar, and introduced my least favorite evil team, but third favorite bad team leader… it’s a weird moment. It’s been a good game, but I will say, overall, 7/10- not enough water.

    I replayed this for the first time since it came out last year and honestly I had a lot of fun. I was actually shocked that Shauna was the only useful rival/companion. If you think gym 1-2 is long like this, you should see it in the professor oak challenges. Plus mega flower frog, any game is better with a venusaur in it. Also the Valerie battle was like me against Opal, she did say to bring pink, gmax venusaur was the best I had

    My brother dropped off playing Pokemon at this generation, he caught Yveltal, named it "MLG", dropped the game and barely played Pokemon Moon because our mom didn't know he dropped Pokemon then. I transferred all his mons to Pokemon Bank and I still have them, the next best mon besides Yveltal was a shiny Vivillon named "Sparkle". X/Y are special to me as the last Pokemon game we played together. He still likes Pokemon and we talk about it, he just doesn't play the games anymore.

    I don't think XY are bad games Per Se. Gen 6 did a lot of really good changes going forward, but it's just really, REALLY disappointing. It really sucks that the campaign, the MAIN COURSE and natural Bulk of Generation 6 falls so flat while the post-game with Looker and Emma is so good. It's a real shame and I'm kinda mad the regular story didn't get the same effort and design put in as the Post-Game quest.

    gen 7 was just too long
    and i either dont like any unmentioned gem for it being over rated (hottake gen 3 wasnt that good) or just unable to access due to hardware, and i dont think i regret any of that so far. Y was a lovely game, and its only unfortunate it was an omen for future pokemon games to just not have the same sparkle some other games used to have, i really hope Z-A is a faithful and good game so more people can realize the amazing glory of "pokefrance"
