/vp/ - Pokémon » Thread #37834248

OP here. I should add that I'm just in a pickle and not sure whether to send the Pokemon in my Bank to ORAS or SM. Additionally, which game makes breeding easier (I don't care about IV/EV stuff, I'm talking just making eggs and hatching. Trying to make a living dex)? I know ORAS has 2 Day Cares.

Such as? You can link me to an article or something too. In all honesty, I just want to be able to battle NPC's in "funmodes" or regular single battles, grind XP quickly ( I know ORAS has the Blissey Bases) and complete a living dex .

ORAS has Battle Resort and Maison. A lot of the Soaring-related content is also locked to the postgame. SM has Battle Tree as well as the UB missions. Honestly I'd pick ORAS, if you're gonna pick any Gen 7 game it should be USUM.

Hmm. What does USUM have over SM? I'd be down to play thru the "enhanced" version of the story. I liked SM's story, and it's been 2 years since I beat it.

If grinding experience quickly is a priority then ORAS is the obvious choice, the grind in SM can be painful since nothing goes above level 65~.

USUM has Ultra Wormhole bullshit and the Rainbow Rocket quest. Honestly, in terms of story most people seem to like SM more. USUM adds some cool elements but they're sloppily tacked on instead of being incorporated in a meaningful way. You could remove almost everything new and nothing would really change.

This. People play on smartphones. Games should be quick to finish so we can move on to the next one.

No idea about the multiplayer but as for picking up a system just to play these games, not really. You'll get a good chunk of time out of them but they really aren't that enjoyable long-term. And the 2DS/3DS is pretty much abandoned at this point so you'd be buying a handheld you wouldn't really get to properly utilize.

But I want to play with my 600 or so Pokemon. I want to do something with them, battling NPC's or hell even casuals being one of them (though I'm sure there are a lot of people running perfect IV's and shit). Wish we could just battle with our favorites.

The 3DS has a pretty decent library of games besides Pokémon that are still worth it, though.

I don't agree with the usage of the term "post-game". Yeah E4 is done but it's still new content. It's part of the game. Especially the newer ones that have story chapters after it, but also something like Kanto in GSCHGSS, I can't really call an entire second region "post-game".

Anon didn't mention interest in any other games, didn't want to assume otherwise. He specifically said "the Pokemon games".

It's just an outdated term. A lot of people tended to think they were done with the game as soon as the story was complete, so content beyond that was only accessible after you beat the game - "post-game". "Post-story" is more accurate, but even then the term should really be something like "open-ended".

I mean post game is literally used becuse it post credits which is what a dev team would most likly consider the end of the game anything in after becomes post the initial game, bits of content or areas that are more designed to be endless like the battle tower/tree or small parts of a new stroy like looker or other similar short missions that only loosly tie in to everything else

Yeah man, if I'd only known that USUM would be a thing when I purchased SM on November 18, 2016.

ORAS has a lot of postgame content, but I haven't beaten US yet.
Fun games though.

I beat the E4 2 weeks after release, then never played it again. Are you saying I should pick up USUM?

I get that but as >>37834405 said it feels a bit outdated once the post-game section started including story segments. Hell, my favorite part of Sun/Moon story-wise was the Looker quest. ORAS and USUM's endings also lead directly into their post-game story quests.
Outside of Pokémon this is becoming more common as well, DQXI's "post-game" is actually huge and very story-driven, following up on character arcs and hanging threads after the main story.

I feel you, OP. But I like the Character Models of SM/USUM better than the chibi's, so I just decided to send everything up to it. Plus, I really like some of the Gen 7 designs.
