3rd Gen So...why do you play?

[Ninja Caterpie]

I dunno, it's something that I want. :D
And I play ROM Hacks and stuff so it doesn't get monotonous. :D

 

[Pechachu]

I play pokémon simply because it's fun. :D
Plus, it's nice to see the same characters from my childhood going strong in their games, not everything's such a huge success. Plus plus, I'm addicted to vidya gamez. Pokémon is strategic, and portable. You can take as long as you like to finish, and no one will shout at you if you don't collect enough coins or something.

I'm not entirely sure, maybe its just the fact that there is just so much replay value. I recently started playing through the original games because I wanted to do some Monotype challenges and I discovered some Pokemon that I had previously ignored are actually very powerful.

I guess its just the thrill of building up a team and taking on the PokeWorld with it.

 

[Charizard EX]

I play it because it's a Pokemon game, duh. Weird, My sister also just started LG again even though she had all the "obtainable pokemon without the link cable". You know like if you don't have another GBA and a link cable but you still can play. My sister caught all of 'em.

But I really hate raising and training Pokemon.

 

[Ayouki Emerald]

Well, honestly, because it's fun. I still play Leafgreen and Emerald because I'm hunting shinies and stuff as such.


But Diamond and Platinum are what make most of my time.

 

[Red Ink]

I play the game because my friend got me hooked to it when we were younger, and now we just play becuase we enjoy it. ^^

 

[Blaine's Best Student]

I play them because they are fun and even after a decade they are still random.

 

[yuki3056]

Because i have a goal of obtaining a majority of the SR shinies from them just got started on the first one a Torchic!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Outlander]

I play because its fun and I've been hooked on it ever since pokemon red version

 

[月Star]

Is it odd to say I enjoy to play because of the scenery? Locations, background music and mostly what the region has to offer. I'm not so thrilled and excited over leveling up, battling, and catching; but they can be fun and it certainly kills boredom.

 

[dumbpikAchu]

For The nostalgia. I don't have RSE or DPPT cause I'm so ragged-poor. :(

 

[Franceschi]

I still play Ruby and Sapphire because I prefer the 2D graphics to the new-fangled 3D ones, which hurt my eyes XD;
Plus the legendaries are actually worth catching :D

 

[Hawkfish]

Well, FireRed was my first Pokemon game. So I play it for nostalgia. And it's fun. Some of my favorite Pokemon are in it ya' know?

 

[maxx unlimited]

Hoenn is my favorite region and Kanto was my first region.
And I hate Sinnoh.
