Zero challenge in coop mode though.
Catching methods suck balls: it fails at being good or fun on its own, it fails at being similar to GO's and the game wants you to engage with it as much as possible.
It's a better way to replay gen 1 than replaying the actual gen 1 but probably worse than playing FRLG.
I definitely had fun with it, the presentation, the challenge it presented and the winks and nods to the series' pasts and what has changed. Also would never think of paying full price for it, it definitely doesn't deserve it, the 25 bucks I paid for it feels about right.
