It's been what feels like years since I lurked around on these forums. I kinda fell out of Pokemon around the time Black/White 2 came out - just wasn't feeling it, for whatever reason. But for Gen 6, I decided to come back and I love everything about this new game.
The variety in the Pokemon you encounter through the game, the subtle tools and NPCs that really only benefit those of us who spend days breeding the perfect battling team, Super Training (all glory to goomy)...
But I finally got around to just beating the game. Sadly, it was as easy as pretty much everything after 3rd Gen has been. Most of my team lasted me until the end of the game - Froakie, Scatterbug, Pikachu and Riolu all persisted from the first gym to the champion. Over the course of the game, the other two spots were occupied with the likes of Talonflame, Kirlia and Snorlax before finally settling on Tyrantrum and Yveltal (Timid and EV trained, it destroys everything). With everyone floating around Lv. 70, I was disappointed when everyone in the Elite Four and the Champion was taken out with OHKOs. I wanted a real battle.
But anyways, now that that's done and I have access to Battle Maison, Friend Safari, PokeRadar, etc... it's time for me to get back into battling, trading, breeding, etc and that means it's time for me to get social again.
