>>35279379A good game, but you should play Blue Rescue Team instead, but if you just can't for some reason, then Red Rescue Team is okay. The game has a few problems, but it's still worth playing if you like it.
After that, play Explorers of Sky (pretty much the same as Rescue Team, but it has a lot of improvements, a very long story and is overall easier), and then Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon (a bit different from the earlier ones when it comes to the gameplay, it still has a lot of improvements, and the story is very divisive among fans).
If you like the plots and don't mind playing an easier, experimental game that lacks a lot of features and content you would come to expect from the other games, play Gates to Infinity as well, you might get some enjoyment out of it.
>>35279788>small inventory that never gets biggerThat's not a bad thing. If anything, the later games got this wrong. Managing your inventory is an important part of the game.
>>35279968Are you serious? If you don't want to change it, just don't. That's the whole point of giving the player a choice.
>>35279855Evolving doesn't matter much in PMD. These are the games where you get to play as the cute Pokémon, you should be glad about that.
