>>39979879I only just started playing HG for the first time ever. As someone who played every gen (except Lets Go titles), here's my input:
I like the following Pokemon, and especially when they interact with you in varying ways. It gives them more character. What I do wish was present is your ability to play with them to raise their friendship. Like in US/UM. That is fun. They should combine these mechanics in to one for future titles.
The battle area after you beat the elite 4 is pretty cool.
A negative is there isn't nearly enough fire-type Pokemon. Magmar sucks, and I refuse to use Legendaries during gameplay (it makes it too easy).
I absolutely LOVE Voltorb Switch. I find myself playing HG just to play Voltorb Switch. Maybe I should invest in Sudoku games or something.
The story is somewhat cute. It's simple and doesn't feel grandiose, but it has its charms. Lol, slowpoketails. I use that as a password now.
Other than that, it's honestly not that remarkable. Lots of good classic Pokemon, especially Furret, Miltanks, and Misdreavus.
