One of my faves was the Safari Zone challenge in Gen 1 where you could only use pokemon available in the Safari Zone, just because it gave me a change to try out some of the rare catches in the maingame while being able to play around with the usual powerhouses! I think I ended up going for...

Yesss the aesthetic is absolutely key. Like Sydian said its whatever for normal mons in an average playthrough but i'll still try my best to match it up with the best looking ball (Magnemite line and premier ball is an easy example) but for postgame and breeding everything has to match up and...

1) Gen 5 2) Gen 4 3) Gen 3 4) Gen 2 5) Gen 1 6) Gen 6 7) Gen 7 8) Gen 8 Never played Gen 8 and Gen 7's tutorial hell is something I wish on no one. I'm very biased towards Gen 4 as that's the gen that really got me into pokemon to begin with but looking back, Diamond/Pearl have aged like sour...

I remember posting on a similar thread ages ago rating Ghost types quite highly and now I've completely changed my mind: In terms of actual aesthetics and designs they're all pretty much top tier but trying to battle with them it feels like there's just something missing in terms of firepower...

Black 2 and White 2. I was way more into the competitive scene and wanted to have 1 game act as my story file while the other was my breeding/vgc file

Pidgeot in Gold. First mon I caught, first mon I evolved to its final stage (I even remember exactly where it evolved, the route just west of Mahogany Town) and the only mon I got to lv100 in that game. I thought it was absolutely busted with Fly and loved it to bits

Lines in the Sand by Dream Theater Falling Into Infinity (1999)

Snoh Aalegra Feat. Logic - Sometimes The Internet - Dontcha' Ama Lou - Tried Up

Easy mode: Jirachi Metagross (transport, computing, firepower, mega-evolving potential, overall boss) 4 cutemon such as bulbasaur, spheal, pichu, stufful Use one of jirachi's wishes to get rid of all the problems in the OP, play with cutemon and explore world on metagross If that's not an...

Percy's Paralogue in FE Fates: Revelation while on c19 of the main campaign. If a unit dies, I reset the game no one dies here :) Didn't realize the wyvern riders will move the instant they can reach you in 2 moves so ended up with my sorta underleveled Selena dodgetanking 2 paladins, 3 wyverns...

black chelsea boots / black uniqlo jeans / Jade green turtleneck / Dark brown Shearling overcoat / black plain snapback. Colder than usual today so could bring out my fave jacket for another spin

Let them stay dead as a dated mechanism built to enforce artificial roadblocks that make no sense why cant i move past a 4 foot tree because I lack a certain HM when I have a blaziken that can just burn it down for me???? Just slide me the Surf/Waterfall TMs around gym 5 and we're good

Depending on your definition of "early" XY throws about ~70 potential mons at you for you to use and most of them are stellar. BW2 takes 2nd with a great diverse selection too with most of them worthy of a look

The Delta episode from ORAS but for every mythical mon. A side-story of Lille's travels through kanto letting you deal with a scenario, catch a team and beat maybe 2-3 gym leaders / the E4 would've been pretty sweet, while its a bit late for that some DLC where you could actually play as the...

Gen 4. Not for anything ingame related but because I could go online and battle/trade with as many people on forums as I could find. Loved the whole scene back then and it's definitely responsible for keeping me interested in pokemon for as long as I was. From a purely ingame perspective I...
