>>12051441I think there's some appeal in seeing Pokemon in their natural habitats, just being animals rather than random encounter grinding fodder. Seeing them as animals rather than superpowered mute children.
Looking for/finding/stumbling upon secrets.
The challenge of taking the perfect shot.
The fact that there was no game like it before, and not many like it since--certainly not with the same lighthearted charm.
Doing something with Pokemon other than fighting with them or managing falling blocks.
