The last Pokemon games I played were BW and Platinum.

I'd like to try out gen VI, but I'm not sure where to start.
I don't want to spend a lot, so I'm getting a 2DS; but should I buy ORAS or X/Y to start with?

Why?
Is ORAS bad? Doesn't it have more features than X/Y? I was also under the impression that X/Y legendaries were a bit shitty but maybe I'm wrong.

Dude, before gen VI my last games were Gold and Silver. Not HG/SS. The originals, on Game Boy. It's been that long

I jumped right into XY and had a blast

ORAS isn't bad. In fact, the Nav was greatly improved.

But it suffers from its source material, and XY has better mons, a better region, and trainer customization.

ORAS were kind of dissapointing as remakes but they have mega evos and shit that X/Y can't access so i'd go with them.

Gen VI is disappointing overall but XY and ORAS are still worth playing. I'd start with XY and then play ORAS later down the road. Don't forget B2W2 as well, 2 of the best in the whole series.

Remake Ruby and sapphire are not worth it. If you want to play Ruby and Sapphire, just go get the games on emulators. As for X/Y yes, get 1 of them it honestly doesn't matter.

Don't get a 2DS it's trash. Get a New3DS XL. Yes it's worth it. Also if you can, buy all your games physically so that way you can trade it in later.

X/Y game play is 10xs better

ORAS basically was over hyped remakes while waiting on X/Y. They aren't that great. At best you get to see Mega evolving and that's ok in it's self

if you hack your games you're not a real pokemon trainer.

>Guys! instead of making new games of the series, we should just cont a story and slap on 2!!
yeah that was exciting.

Must've been amazing. Which features did you like the most in the new games?
>>27151255
>>27151312
>>27151333
Well, since I'd like to have access to the latest features of the games, ORAS would be the better choice right?
Aside from trainer customization, what does XY have that ORAS lacks?

I'll buy SM anyway.

It's just a remake. You played it as a kid I assume? OK you know the story. There's nothing special besides riding Latios around and looking down. WOOOO
that's so nifty right?

Dude you clearly want ORAS go get it FFS

I don't clearly want anything, it's just that mega evolutions being available sounds good. I don't even remember Sapphire's storyline, it's been a long time.

Don't listen to that faggot bro. The 2DS is comfy and pretty nice. The New 3DS isn't worth it unless you like the 3D effect. All Pokemon Games play the same

omg then just fucking get it and stop asking for advice, you clearly cannot listen to a single fucking person. a 2DS is a piece of trash. Go look at a display of the screen and you will go"oh it's tiny" you want something nice, big and durable. Don't be a fucking jew anon. Why don't you like video games? Go back to /g/ then

Is the display as big as the old DS Lite? If so then I'm good, that's enough

I'm not shelling out hundreds of dollars for a 3DS, I just want to play Pokemon.

X/Y. I'd also recommend going back and checking out B/W2 (I played both 1 and 2 and 2 was better imo). Remakes are cool but checking out the core series games is a must.

Also, 2DS is garbage. Don't do that to yourself, OP. At least get a 3DS XL, you can find refurb ones pretty cheap these days.

He's not listening but instead whining he should play Ruby remake, that's fine, then stop asking why you shouldnt if you want it. God damn. I hate when people don't know if they want it or not and question the shit out of it.

Different anon here, the only arguments I've seen against the 2DS so far were "it's trash" and "it has a tiny screen". What's so bad about it in particular?

2DS isn't really awful, but the design is pretty shit since it was geared towards younger kids. The 3DS being foldable makes it more portable, more convenient, keeps it safer/cleaner etc. 2DS has some other smaller downsides like shit sound quality without headphones, there are heaps of charts out there comparing each model's features.

For a Pokemon only machine it's probably still fine if you really don't want to spend more.

If you're actually going to get a gen VI game then you should probably go with X/Y since you've already probably played gen III. You'll be getting something new, unless the nostalgia thing appeals to you... You would probably enjoy either for different reasons.

But really, my ultimate advice is to just wait for S&M. Why waste the money?
