>>5456916828 anon here, owned Colosseum as a kid, still have my copy, and got a physical copy of XD recently. Played Colosseum several times including starting a Ribbon Master. Played XD on emulation once but didn't finish, so I'm playing through that for reals now.
>both have great presentation, music, and style>don't mind the (sometimes) long animations because they give Pokemon a lot of personality and give moves a meaty satisfying sfx. Also I don't have ADHD and am capable of patience.>Colosseum is actually pretty short, my natural playthroughs were only 19 hours or so>can be challenging >limited mons but they get uncommon movesetsThey're a great litmus test, if someone says they are bad, I know they're either underage, mentally dominated by shit YouTuber opinions, or just have bad taste. Or all three.
