Running through a Red nuzlocke currently
I never finished Red as a kid, but it's still pretty nostalgic
>>35005042XY are not bad games, but the pacing is really weird (expect the mid-game to last about a third of what the first 3 badges last) and not enough trainers take advantage of mega evolution.
The games have the most variety of wild Pokemon amongst any of the games (even USUM). Also play with the Exp Share off or the game isn't balanced enough
