Reasons why I like playing the pokemon franchise
- The story is pretty much the only thing that stays the same between gens. Each new game features new locations, new pokemon, new minigames, and new challenges.
- I primarily play for the sense of exploration. So the excuse plot never bothered me. I just enjoy raising different teams, trying out different styles, and occasionally doing self imposed challenge runs.
-It's a simple game good for car rides or when I have to kill an hour in a waiting room or between classes. You can do it in bite sized chunks in a way you can't for some other games.
Reasons why I will buy X and Y specifcally
- I love pretty much every new pokemon they've revealed
- I love the fairy type
- I do not really love mega evolutions but I do love the fact that they will probably shake up the metagame and smogon will have to scramble to figure out their tiers again.
- 3D
- New battle types
- Customizable trainers
- It's set in fucking pokefrance in terms of exploration porn it's like a solid 8.5 based on that alone.
