>>34545997Pokemon peaked for me with gold and silver on gameboy. I was so fucking hyped back then with how big the game world was, day night cycle with different mons, cellphones and rebattles, berry picking. It was a pretty cool considering there wasnt much like it at the time. Now the pokemon formula has gotten a bit old. Battle mechanics seem slow and boring given there are action rpg alternatives. If they took the simplicity and easy difficulty of pokemon, and turned it into an action rpg with less sitting on our thumbs as far as battles go, it might make the series interesting for me again.
PS: Cynthia is the best character design they ever made, and black white 1 was a great game for story.
