>>16813342no, the base stuff is still the same.
even if you're intimidated by the new pokemon, there's a huge selection of older pokemon in the game, too, that you're bound to recognize. that said, the new pokemon are still pretty good, pic related, pretty cute.
the game is generally quite clear in most areas, and the other things are fairly easy to understand if you're looking on a site like
serebii.net.
curious, anon, what's your first language?
