>>48634026The moment I had clicked on this thread, you slammed me with a stunning emotion of "soul". Look at that team; Pokemon from all different regions, holding items, outside of the Battle Frontier - the player obviously is in a domineering position in the game, having reached the endgoal of the storyline and likely proliferating a wide collection of different Pokemon to use. A hallmark operation of a player with a well-cultivated collection, likely residing over a selection of shinies, in-game trained Pokemon, and other examples of rarity. The crisp 2D graphics balance the display and the imagination well. You could fill in the grey areas with realism in your thoughts that the plasticized, rubbery 3D games can only display with overly-sanitized shine.
Imagining this setup with Battle Revolution as well as the rest of Gen 4's spinoff and mainline series lineup gets me toasty inside. An actual collection to accumulate in spare time.
Thanks, OP. This thread shows a past that should've defined the present. An island of comfort and reason amidst the noise.
