6th Gen Do you find yourself replaying Gen 6 games?

Just curious...do you find yourself going back to Gen 6 to replay those games? I've been wanting to restart Alpha Sapphire for some time now (since I want to recapture all the legends with decent natures and IVs), but always felt daunted by having to go through the game again. I just restarted AS a couple nights ago, and I'm loving it. Revisiting Hoenn for the first time in AS was a huge blast of nostalgia, and it feels the same this time around, except I find myself sort of rushing through. I am definitely having fun while doing so, though. I think RSE had some of the best music in the series, and ORAS remade those tracks beautifully.

I usually like to leave my save files and Pokémon collection intact, but with the advent of Pokémon bank, I find my old saves files rather empty anyway, so it's easy to hit that restart button.

So, now that Sun and Moon have been out for a while now, have you yet found yourself going back and replaying some of the older games? Or do you like to leave your games intact?

Honestly I didn't, I found XY to be the worst games in the series. The games were really easy, had a shallow story, and it had little to do after beating the game.

But I am going back to play other Pokemon games, as I'm currently playing Crystal.

I haven't played much of gen VI lately, mainly down to the fact that Gen VII is still fairly recent and I've had tons of assignments to sort out. Hopefully when I get more time I'll get around to finishing my Y save!

I haven't been replaying 6th Gen much since I started with Moon. Kalos has been an uninteresting region, while I did have enough of Hoenn lately as well.

I second this thought.
I have never replayed a game in the 6th gen.
I never even finished X and Y.

I might replay one of the Hoenn remakes sometime this Summer, depending on what gets announced/doesn't get announced.

I haven't really touched ORAS since my first playthough of Omega Ruby. I picked up a copy of each and was streaming my Alpha Sapphire playthrough in like February 2015 before I started working full time. I just haven't gotten the motivation to go back and play it.

I found myself replaying Pokémon Y maybe a year or so after the games came out. My internet was down for a week so I thought I'd give Kalos another run and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I used some new Pokémon I hadn't previously used and I noticed some nuances that went over my head when I first played.

I am constantly replaying my pokemon games because money is tight. I tend to play 3 versions at a time and switch between them a lot. Currently playing Y, Sun, and Platinum version atm. I've got all the games except for Moon, X, and D/P so I have plenty to keep me busy and restarting doesn't get old because I have so many different games to play. The one thing I really liked about X/Y was the amount of pokemon to choose from in the wilds. Old favorites, new ones, etc. I feel like X/Y may have had a weak story but it had the best variety of wild pokemon for the story. After a while you kind of stop playing the games for the story and more for the battling aspect and filling the dex. So for me it's all good and I still play my Y version. Too bad the GTS and Wonder Trade have been rendered useless. I always enjoyed those features and I still enjoy super training far more than training in S/M.
