Most satisfying moment you've encountered*


So I saw this "biggest disappointment thread" pop-up.

It was interesting and all but I would rather focus on the things that were the most enjoyable or satisfying overall..

Instead of nitpicking over small details that may or may not matter that much.


Don't get me wrong it is a good topic and a necesarry one, I just think there should be a more positive one aswell!



Anyhow, my most satisfying moment in Pokémon Y was when I ..you guessed it.. evolved my Skiddo into GOGOAT!

I'm just really in love with his design, what can I say?




Edit: Horrible topic typo.
At first I was planning putting a big picture of a Gogoat here.

But then I realized that one picture would take more space then most of the posts I'll make..

Satisfying moment is how my Delphox becomes my major powerhouse, I did not expect her to be that strong. *manly tears* :')
Caught a Shiny Wingull, I remember my brother had one in Ruby but lost it. I'm giving it to him when we fixed our relationship and reconcile again.
Florges and Heliolisk, just when I wanna give up on these two. They evolved and become great assets to my party. :)

Breeding pokemon have never been so much easier compared to other older gens. It took me a 30 mins to breed a pokemon with perfect IVs in 5 stats. All legendary pokemon seems to have 3 perfect IV and that makes me really happy.
Hai! Feel free to request battle or trade from me. I got tons of 3-5 IVs pokes for trade.
Current goal: To breed all breed able Pokemon species with egg moves and 5IVs and store it in Pokebank. (Help me by giving me any of your breedjects.)

Most satisfying moment was visiting a Pokemon Center during my birthday yesterday. I was shocked at first seeing the place completely dark and thought my game froze. Suddenly, the lights turned on and confetti popped out by the door. Then, Nurse Joy wished my a happy birthday. There was even a picture of a cake behind her. Also, the music changes for the entire day.

That really made my day! :)

- EXP Gain for capturing, the EXP share in general is nice for training things postgame.
- The graphics, other than the camera angles, are actually really nice. I didn't actually care for them in Gates to Infinity, but they're cool here, even if I do think they could've done more with Gen 4/5's style. The battles especially, are nice.
- I really a handful of Pokemon, such as Noivern. :3
- CHARACTER CUSTOMIZATION! This is huge, especially for choosing skin/hair colors/styles :3
- In BW2, all you had to do to get to the next gym was literally cross a bridge or two, and this gen fixed it, mostly.
- The bottom screen is really nice, FINALLY it has a good layout that I hope they keep. I really like how you can access Wifi features from anywhere. Wonder Trade is also kind of a fun concept, if you have the patience. And friends <3
- The amount of Pokemon available, although I do wish there had been more new ones.
- EVs and IVs omfg
- The megas are a nice concept, though kinda disappointing that there weren't more/they used up new Pokemon slots

This gen did a lot of things well, but there's still more room for work! =3

Most awesome ENCOUNTERS you mean!

For starters I'm in love with this new EXP-share. Makes rasing a single pokémon a load more interesting. I find the new thing a lot more balanced. I heard people say it's too strong, but I don't think so. Well maybe this is because I generally focus on raising pokémon one by one...

Secondly, my Greninja just reached lvl. 100, which was awesome as well!

Furthermore, after failing at chaining for about 5 hours, I succeeded a full 40 chain and caught a shiny Zoroark in just about 60 max repels! It's the first shiny pokémon I've EVER encountered in my LIFE, so yeah that was maybe the biggest, bestest, awesome-o-'est encounter so far.

To continue, I am in love with the PSS. When I started pokémon, I could finally play with a friend of mine AFTER I BOUGHT THE GAME FOR HIM. When we went our different ways, I had nobody to play pokémon with anymore. This is the first generation again that I can play with others, in like... more than 10 years. I'm... Deeply touched. *cries*.

Also, this game has a pokémon named Inkay. What's so great about that? Well you can make a dozen of lame puns with that li'l guy alone, Inkays you wonder. When I was breeding for a shiny one, I got a full box, just Inkays.

And I can go on and on. Supertraining is so much more fun than grinding zubats. Pokémon Amie is... well. nvm. I don't actually use that.

Then, compared to the other games, especially the previous two generations, it just feels a lot better. Not only did the graphics again gain a huge boost, but the gameplay just got a whole lot smoother, and there are very few new pokémon that I don't like. I also Absol-lutely love the inclusion of SO MANY POKÉMON from the previous generations! I don't even mind that they didn't have that many new pokémon because of this!

To elaborate the smoother gameplay, there are so many new transportation methods! First of all I love the tricks you can do with your skates. Secondly I'm just awed by full 360 movement. Lastly I'm honestly just enjoying seeing the smoothness of skating and cycling. The only thing that bothers me is that using your skates accidentally breaks your chain while using the radar.

There's probably more that I like about this generation that I didn't mention yet, but so far these are the most significant ones. Hmm? Mega evolution? Not really my thing no.

The eggs are Greninja and Yvelta. This is my all-dark team.

The best moment, for me, would have to be when I encountered a shiny Litleo at the beginning of the game. Though, it had quickly turned into my worst moment, as I managed to make it faint somehow. I had very limited amount of Poké Balls with me at that time—only about three to five. I didn't want any of them go to a waste, so I thought it'd be a good idea to weaken the Pokémon a bit before capturing. When I landed an attack, it became a critical hit in an instant—making Litleo disappear right before my eyes. :( If I did capture it though, then I definitely would've made it a part of my team. Shinies are extremely hard to come across, and that was my one and only chance to catch one.

Aaaanyway… I think should stop talking about this and move onto something else. Another great moment for me was when I evolved my Quilladin into Chesnaught. I was training very hard to have it evolved, and when it finally did, my heart was filled with absolute joy. n__n Chesnaught is quite an epic Pokémon. Its defensive stats are very high, allowing it to take a lot of hits and stall your opponents for many, many turns. Its Attack stat is pretty big, too. After only one Swords Dance, it could take down almost any of your opponent's Pokémon with a single blow.

Definitely finding out that my Mewtwo had perfect Speed, Special Attack and Special Defense IV's. One of the best things to happen to me in this game! Also using my newly evolved Malamar when I first got it and finding out that it had this nifty ability called Contrary while using Superpower and just plowing through Pokemon with my increased stats. So sweet.

Most important for me - X and Y are released already and that I'm having such a good time playing them.

All the Pokemon I wanted in a team are catchable in both games (except for one which is Y exclusive), seeing them in 3D battle! They don't seem pixelated.

Many move animations! Much better than any other generation games. In certain moves (like with my Floatzel) the Pokemon turns around (like Swift and Aqua Jet), moves around (like my Furret's Headbutt and Slam), or does something completely unexpected (like Surf).

So much to explore - just when I think I finished discovering an area, something new comes up.

For me personally; watching and hearing my happy Mienshao responding back (in Pokemon Amie) and playing with her.

My trainer actually talks back sometimes.
[Lord Summerisle:] "Now, those children out there, they're jumping through the flames in the hope that the god of the fire will make them fruitful. Really, you can't blame them. After all, what girl would not prefer the child of a god to that of some acne-scarred artisan?"

[Sergeant Howie:] "And you encourage them in this?"

[Lord Summerisle:]"Actively! It's most important to teach new generation born of Summerisle be made aware that here the old gods aren't dead."

[Sergeant Howie:]"And what of the true God? To whose glory churches and monasteries have been built on these islands for generations past? Now what of Him?"

[Lord Summerisle:]"Oh, He's dead. He can't complain. He had his chance and in modern parlance. Blew it."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Lord Summerisle:]“And the ministers fled the island never to return. What my grandfather started out of expediency, my father continued out of love. He brought me up the same way: to reverence the music, and the drama, and the rituals of the old gods; to love nature and to fear it, and to rely on it and to appease it when necessary. He brought me up —”

[Sergeant Howie:]“He brought you up to be a pagan!”

[Lord Summerisle:]“A heathen, conceivably, but not, I hope, an unenlightened one.”

Effort Value Training made easy with Horde Battles.

Battle Tower/Subway Variant allows you to break after EACH battle instead of doing sets of SEVEN. You get points for each battle.

Online Features much improved. So much easier to trade, battle

Safari Zone feels more exciting. Using your own pokemon, hunting for specific monsters. Providing a LEGAL way to obtain Hidden Abilities.

SCOLIPEDE HAS SPEED BOOST!!! One of my favorites has a new ability that makes him more usable in battle.
