Finding a legendary Pokemon at the end of a long dungeon felt so extremely cool, like i just uncovered an ancient mystery and i am the first one to witness it.

Being alone in the depths of nowhere with this powerful creature. This intense experience.

Is it just nostalgia, the newer games being shit at delivering this feeling, am i too old now or did the internet ruin this experience? The last time i felt it was in gen4 but even there it was already weaker.
