  • How are YOU going to play?

    [Woah, first thread in X/Y, I hope it goes well. :p]

    So, how are you going to play through Pokemon X/Y? Are you going to rush through it trying to beat it as fast as possible, or spend ages in a single area trying to uncover all of its secrets? :p Or maybe a balance between the two? I'm kinda curious how people are going to play- I personally will probably spend a long time in each area. :)

  • I am an explorer when it comes to maps, and I love to learn about the pokemon themselves. So I will rush to the point needed for wifi access, then it will be a long time after that before I complete the game. Completing the dex is always the part I enjoy most, so no stone shall remain unturned.

  • SInce these games feel so new already, i´ll probably take more time than usual in each area, maybe even try to catch most of the pokemon before going to the next route/town. i´ll definitely be taking my time :D

    I am going to knock the main story out as quickly as possible(up to the first viewing of the credits). Then i will proceed to farm out my 'dream team'. Then do all side content and then start catching all the pokemon.

  • Well, generally I try to start off taking it nice and slow and making sure that I explore all of the areas, read all the dialogue, and catch Pokemon. But as I get more drawn into the game, and story I tend to rush a bit more than come back later and explore the areas.

  • I'll just take it slow and enjoy the game. Heck, I may stay in any area for extended periods to get good Pokémon with good natures/IVs.

  • I'll go through it like I do with all the other regions. First, I'd get to know a bit more about it by reading articles on the internet such as what sort of Pokemon can be found in each area so that I can plan ahead for what I would want on my team - pick those with favourable stats and avoid those with low ratings. I won't rush through the game but take it slow and steady and enjoy every single bit of it. Explore every area possible, capture all Pokemon I encounter, get every item I can get access to, talk to everyone, battle every trainer, defeat every gym leader and Elite 4 members + champion, and of course, take in all the amazing new features.

    I hope that this will be the first game in which I am going to be able to "catch them all". Therefore I will take my time exploring and not stress through it.

    I've found that for the first time since Gold and Silver, I feel compelled to catch every Pokemon I come across (well every one I've not already caught anyway). It's an interesting way to play, especially now that we earn EXP from just catching a Pokemon now.

    This is something I've been debating for quite some time, and I still haven't made up my mind yet. I normally play through really slowly (to the extent that there are a lot of games where I still haven't beaten the Elite Four/main storyline), but I'm thinking I might try to play through more quickly this time. I don't have a lot of free time, so I might just try to breeze through one game and take the other one more slowly. Even when moving quickly, though, I still tend to talk to everyone I encounter and catch everything I can, so I'm not really sure how it will turn out.

    Slow and steady! I want this experience to last as long as possible and to not feel rushed. (What better timing then on a 4day weekend as well! Thanksgiving for Canada)

    I will for once try to capture many different Pokemon instead of just my 6 team members like I usually do. I will also be in Amie a ton, as well as EV training my Pokemom to perfection.
