I played Gen 1&2 when I was a kid. I never had the GBA. As an adult, around 2013-2014, I tried to reconnect with Pokemon and Digimon. I did enjoyed Digimon and still do to this day. For Pokemon, I played Emerald and quite enjoyed it. Great! It means that the formula still work for me as an adult and don't need nostalgia to enjoy these types of games. I tried Gen 4 but didn't go far. Not that it was bad, but playing with an emulator and controller was a little annoying. Also, I chose the grass starter by default, because I wasn't impressed by any of them. He was the less bad. I don't blame the game. I would probably enjoyed it more with a DS. I then bought a 3DS (for the Ace Attorney games) and bought your Gen 6 with Pokemon X, which was the last Pokemon game at that time. I never touched another Pokemon game since. I hated this game (I even consider it the worst game I played ; even if, recently, another competitor, Lufia 4, was menacing its throne), but still forced myself to finish the story. Way too easy, the leveling of your Pokemon is stupid (I had a level 91 Blastoise against the league and I dodged most trainers in the Victory Road, because it would just be a loss of time, my Pokemon being too strong and me having too much money), the story was stupid, NPC are stupid (2/3 give you something for no reasons), money was stupid (before the league I spent a good amount of money into Full Heal, realised I could do better, sold them and still managed to buy exactly 106 Revives and 225 Full Restore), the TMs became stupid (I used all my Blastoise's Ice Beams attacks against Drasna, changed this attack for another and put the Ice Beam's TM at the same spot and great 10 new Ice Beams ; you can do a Nuzlocke without going to any Pokemon Center, outside of scenaristic reasons, using TM's attacks only), Pokemon-Amie was shit because you couldn't lose (you could score 0 in every games and still manage to have your bonds being at max levels)etc.
