Hey guys. I haven't played pokemon in a crazy long time. Pokemon go has kind of re-kindled my pokemon love, and i'm willing to give the games another go. My friend wants me to get AS, because he got OR. What do you guys feel about ORAS? Worth getting this close to sun/moon?

Quick backround of version i've played:
red, blue, yellow
Silver
Some emerald, It wasn't mine.

Silver was so much fun for me when it came out, i played it nonstop all the time. Will the newer games give that feeling once again?
