Basically if you play the game you’ll ruin the experience for yourself.

I never go on catching sprees or fight every single wild mon on casual runs/pre HOF but okay lol. After a certain point I know how strong my team is and I choose my battles anyway.

It would be different if you had to skip trainers or not fight any wild pokemon. To me that would be blatantly hindering the experience.

But at the end of the day it is subjective.

Patiently waiting for the post to arrive to kick-start this weekend off

Straight up removing player choice is always such a head scratcher

First they make it so that exp share applies to the entire party and not just one Pokémon

Now we can’t even turn it off. Just makes no sense

picked chimchar for diamond when i was a kid

picked turtwig for platinum

only feels right to pick piplup for brilliant diamond all these years later

Gonna try and run through this with some Pokémon that I’ve never used before

I'll never forget my OG Diamond team, dunno why, but I always thought it was cool as hell, even after all these years.
Drifblim
Floatzel
Luxray
Drapion
Garchomp
Infernape

Think Imma go with Piplup once I cop this tho and try to go with some pokemon I didn't really use before, as well.

Tempted to reset to get the right nature for my Chimchar. Highkey want to go full EV train mode on this game cause I’ve never did it

I hated this art style when it was first shown.

God I was so wrong

I need Primeape or Fearow in this game, i used them in my OG blue team back in the late 90s

Timid chimchar first try

Guess we going nasty plot special this time

I always try to do this and then end up going back to old faithfuls smh

those were both postgame pokémons in the original DP if i remember right

im gonna try not using starly-starraptor whenever i cop this since i don’t need fly

gonna be weird not using him

Say I have Pearl downloaded to a console and I want to play Diamond, do I have to download the whole game and have both downloaded?

need to go the Eb games to pick it up but I lost my receipt for my pre order hopefully telling em my phone number is enough.

My first run might be a Nuzelocke but I wanna start with Turtwig my first starter ever

Yea you need both downloaded to play both versions

I have sword and shield both installed on my switch

Dont like the background to the battles in MT. Coronet. Niggas in a whole ass mountain and the background is all purple, weird

Elite 4 and champion backgrounds are dope ass hell tho

we just started the game bruh how you already posting endgame spoilers lmao

no way you’re even at this point yet you must’ve looked it up??

I like that the poketch apps can be shuffled with your finger on the touch screen, it’s a small thing but it helpful

Nigga this game dropped in 2006 This aint no spoiler

Dont even have a switch, just saw some videos

you didn’t even post anything about the 2006 game, you’re just talking about how it looks in the remake and you posted an image of it because the video shows a still of the ending of the game whatever man im out

imo how the background looks in the battle aint no spoiler b. And when talking bout remakes and s*** like that, if it aint new content then it aint a spoiler. For example with FF7, remake came out recently but Aeris dying aint a spoiler

Would put it on the spoiler thing but ngl i dont know how to do it and i've been here since the day the forum was created lmao

not gonna lie you have me hype the still image of the legendary in that vid you posted looks crazy

yeah I’m not tripping about story spoilers because the games been out for so long but I wasn’t expecting videos of the ending lmao, I paused immediately when I realized what it was tho I should’ve read first

Will wait for Arceus
these remakes look like 3ds games, i demand more
