Say what you will say about Kalos, but the fact that most of the rivers seemed to link up with each other, and they all appeared to logically originated from the snowy eastern mountains, was cool as shit

Kalos appreciation thread?
I liked how they realized Lumiose is too big and put three pokecenters in it.

I like that the Halloween/Fairy areas are right next to each other. Gives you a concentrated burst of supernatural.

You mean the swamp south of Laverre? Yeah. That abandoned playground is top tier. I actually like all those small details they have around Lumiose. The playground, the skate park, and the fishing docks are really neat and give a sense of realism of a "bigger Lumiose".

I'd like to visit that snowy forest behind Abomasnow Mountain.

I love this area in Kalos, probably one of my favourite areas of the entire series.

All regions (except Hoenn probably) have their rivers start from the mountains and line up on the map.

Yeah, but Kalos' are just so expansive and everywhere. Almost all the routes have a place where you can see a river/water.

That's probably one of the best tracks, the rest isn't too hot

I was actually disappointed how boring I found it replaying it, I used to defend it too

There's nothing wrong with that. XY certainly have their strong points alongside their weak ones. Take Sycamore's theme for example, it's good.

Theme wise it's fine. Just the whole game felt very average and took no risks or is really memorable

Wait, so is Kalos the only game with a canon time period? Like, the whole journey took place in a year?

It supposed to be the "climate" of the region, Unova actually changes seasons

well that's a headcanon way of looking at it

it was most likely meant to be an aesthetic progression though, not a literal one

This. They really made the transition well, and the Pokemon distribution was great for each season. Kalos is one of my favorite regions for that reason; it was so comfy.

It was pretty obvious that it was supposed to be the seasons. Just about everybody noticed it.

I didn't. That stretch between Anistar and Snowbelle really faked me out. You go snow > no snow > snow again.

a year long time lapse is never mentioned once in the actual plot. Or any time lapse for that matter.

like I said it's one of those things that's a good headcanon to have, but it's not really official. go ahead and believe it's what happened if you want. I do too.
