Anyway I did enjoy a Pearl playthough I did a while back. The smaller distribution led to some interesting gameplay. I had to reconsider how I approached teambuilding and thought more about how I would go about covering some things. The scarcity was interesting, it's a shame GF only experimented with this kind of gameplay once, even if by accident. No shade against SM, it's just all the exp share games play the same, you grab some mons from the bloated encounter tables and they're all getting leveled passively, and the TMs here are infinite so it's not like coverage is hard to get. So due to it's more unique gameplay from the rest of the series I would replay DP over SM.
