>>28332995Have you seriously combed through 600-something Pokemon and trained up every single one you've had a passing interest in? My main point was (though I ran out of space to fully express it), there are so many Pokemon in this game that you can finally get around to guys that you've passed over before. Like, Gardevoir as an example for me. I passed by a female Ralts in an early route and went "Meh, why not?". 80 hours later (Like I said, I took my time.), and Gardevoir leapfrogged up from being a Pokemon I really never gave a shit about due to its fanbase, to legitimately becoming my 3rd favorite Pokemon of all time because she was a top-tier bro. I have a dozen other examples of guys that I never payed attention to before on top of the new Pokemon, and raising all of them together really crafted together one of my favorite experiences in the series.
>>28333026This guy gets it. That's exactly how I felt going through X/Y, though ironically enough Gen IV is what originally killed the series for me. Going back and having a Garchomp and Weavile on my team in X/Y pretty much made up for it, though.
