>>45073519I do but every other monster collecting franchise has some bullshit about the monster collecting part.
>in SMT you waste too much money buying monster and moving with them and then don't have enough money to buy weapons and armor>in Digimon DS you have to beat a digimon like 10 times before having enough data to create one and then go back to the base to create it>in Fossil Fighters you find fossil in the ground, then go back to the base and play a minigame to make a vivosaur, but you actually need 4 fossils to get a fully developed vivosaur and to be able to get the other fossil you have to upgrade your gear gradually so to get some fully developed vivosaurs you have to go to the place were you find them 4 timesIn Pokémon you fight them, catch them with a cheap item and heal them with another cheap item or go to the last town to change your pokemon.
Also "going back to the base" takes a lot more time in other games than in Pokémon.
