first time playing. this game seems much faster than other series, with faster dialogues, battles, running style and gameplay overall.
did you like it, anon?

The interaction with the environments were pretty good and the areas were pretty nice to look at, plus it's 3D, but I don't like the VN portraits they use in battles and the fights are extremely terrible, which make it hard for me to return to. I would argue they're the weakest 3D games.

God forgot how ugly it is. 3DS games could definitely look better.

I actually played it with a friend and took notes of everything I loved and hated. Overall, the region itself feels more alive, like it could exist in the real world, the story, gym leader, elite four and champion fare fucking bad. The story is basic as fuck, more basic than a cardboard book. That said, it's a beautiful region and, I hope it gets a remaster, with a better damn story

I enjoyed it when I first played since the game came out at a shitty time in my life (dead grandmother with no dusknior to guide her) for a while in 2016 I felt like the game preyed on my shit life at that time to make me like the game and I hated the game with a burning passion, now I feel they're not the best (probably lowest Pokemon has gone content wise) but I won't let the distaste make me wanna shit on people who like it like I did years ago

wow, pretty bad opinions so far. well it's my second pokimonz on 3DS, first approach was Moon and it was something revolutionary (in some aspects) as well as kinda mediocre for me, but overall I did like it.
wonder if Ultra S/M and ORuby/ASapphier will be good enough though

I absolutely love the pokemon amie including the fact that these games have the best pokemon distribution of the entire series make it so they are my favorite for team building.
Also they introduced the best battle mechanic in the form of Mega evolution.

I actually played this game twice, back to back, because of how displeased I was with my first team (which I barely scraped by the champion with, no EXP share).
I actually wasn't as fatigued as It thought I would be replaying it so soon. Kalos does a great job of spacing different and interesting set pieces/wild pokemon around the region. Also built a different team, both times with only gen 6 pokemon.
The only thing I remember fucking hating was Lumious city. That place is a nightmare to navigate without a map, and I only bothered with it after returning for the 5th gym battle.

That's not to say XY is bad, looking back there are a lot of impressive aspects to the gen 6 games, it's just the battles are a huge letdown for me. One thing I like about SwSh was the gyms return to having 4 pokemon and they use dynamax, XY gyms stay at three, don't have good movesets, and don't touch megas. They feel like an afterthought. I'm playing the Eternal X romhack currently and the games are a lot more fun.

Overall, I liked it. It's not my favorite, but it was fun.

I had a love-hate with the game having like 20 pokemon per route, because I usually catch everything new before moving on, and it slowed the playthrough a bit until I gave that up for post game. It used to be a non issue for older gens having only like 3 new pokemon per route. I did enjoy the amount of choices, though.
I liked the pokemon designs,minus the starters.
It felt pretty comfy to play through.
It seemed to last forever until gym 2.
I liked the mini games they added for training your pokemon. It's a nice feature.
And I at first appreciated the thought of the exp share because I hate grinding.

Bad things include it being a pretty bland, unmemorable adventure/story. It was over way too quickly once you beat the second gym. The mini games and exp share put together made me accidentally steamroll the game. Once I realized how OP I was, I turned exp share off but I couldn't undo the EV training. I didn't like the overall easiness of the game that's still there even if you don't mess up like that.

For full disclosure, I was using what I assumed would be shitmons like furfrou, gogoat, and vivillon (weak to both fire and flying) as my only pokemon for those talonflame flying battles. So I had no idea me EV training a butterfly would accidentally let me sweep firebirds with it. The lack of a difficulty curve coming out of BW wasn't expected.

They were just created to be The friend group™ like Bianca and Cheren were in BW but unlike them they do not have any memorable personality or goals of their own.
Hell,I only remember the girl is called Chauna because of the porn.
The anime fleshed them out more in that regard.

USUM have way better gameplay than SM at the cost of a slightly downgraded story. If you enjoyed SM and are looking for a replay, USUM are great.
ORAS are pretty good. I enjoyed them a little more than XY personally since they're very similar but had more time to improve. GF didn't have to make a new region so that time went into worldbuilding and game mechanics.

>but I don't like the VN portraits
Really? I honestly wish they kept them since 3D Pokémon are pretty lifeless and ugly, and seeing the same models for every trainer class felt unnatural whereas with the artwork you can headcannon them into mere abstractions of the NPCs.
