Now that im an adult an have a much stronger understanding of how the game works, pokemon end up feeling more like numbers, and there always feels like something to complain about whether its low base stats, shit movepool, bad ability or shitty typing.
But this song really brings me back. Back to a time when it wasnt about breeding a 5 IV mon, or worrying if your bro would end up being any good. That child like wonder and ignorance really brought a whole new level to the childhood mind. I remember using beedrill. It didnt matter that it was an early bug mon, beedrill was cool, so I used it.
Dont get me wrong, sun and moon look fantastic and I cant wait to play it. But no matter what incredible advances or interesting new pokemon they introduce, it will always be impossible to defeat that first child hood experience where pokemon was less of a game and more of an actual adventure.
