I have Red, and at first I hated the plot. The seperate missons were okay, but when Gengar showed up, I thought he was the main bad guy. World Domination convinced me even more. But then, his team name was Team Meanies. And he wasn't that evil, nothing to be afraid of. I was wondering how much 5-yr.-old this could get, until I became a fugitive. From Lapis Cave, it's pretty fun. The plot starts getting better, your partner's character is building up, there are many hardships and fun times. But when I defeated Groundoun and Xatu appeared going:
"SHOOTING STAR! SHOOTING STAR!"
That's when the storyline seemed to get a little desperate to keep the game going. I'm in the middle of Sky Tower, stuck at the save point because I keep getting killed and well...I always turn off my system when I die...but I did view the ending on YouTube. It didn't make me cry or anything, a bit saddened knowing that my main character actually IS going to dissapear (since I chose Red over Time/Darkness because I saw the character dying in Time/Darkness first). However, now I know that he'll reappear which doesn't make much sense, but it's fine in my book! :P
