4th Gen What brings you back?

[Horyo]

What usually brings you back to the game? I haven't found much of a reason yet to bring myself to pick up Diamond again, other than just seeing al my pride and joy of the Pokemon world.

But I'm sure we all have different reasons why we'd return to play, right? Some like breeding, some like certain areas, so what do you like?

 

[Empire]

Competitive Battling =P - I have not played Pearl for months untill last week where i started WiFi Battling Again.

 

[Evilyn]

The Hax Battle Tower and Shiny hunting. I will get that Shiny Eevee and Drifloon. >.>

 

[Yu_&_Rei]

pretty much competitive battling, although mostly Im asked for a battle. I never request em

 

[Pachireecko]

I start playing it again just because I see some videos on youtube or somewhere!

 

[~Kavin~]

it's so much to do. IF your not catching them all, you have contests cause people rarely do them, ev training, shiny hunting, competitive battling, the battle tower. That's a lot of things to keep you occupied.

 

[jayjayfish]

i just enjoy the competitive battling

 

[TwilightBlade]

Shiny hunting and EV training; however, sometimes I enjoy competitive battling. I just like to try training new pokemon.

 

[Peanut_Butters]

The Pokemon.

I'm sure this sounds silly and immature,but I love my Pokemon..And I shall train them to be the best they can be!

I have alot of Pokemon I haven't trained yet,they're low levels,and aren't completely affectionate to me..I also have my contest Pokemon,I caught 3 Buneary's yesterday.

Also,I really want to obtain every Pokemon.
That means I battle tower!
..EV training!I must EV train!

I keep on forgetting though,I usually just train Pokemon I like,I don't actually look at their stats,I look at their personalities and gender ^^;
I don't really care for their personalities though.

 

[Caelus]

Probably the Battle Tower.
I go there every time I'm bored.
If that doesn't bring me back then the legendary pokemons do, since I have yet to have catch them all.

 

[Zelda]

I am always playing my games cuz I never get bored of them ':D
But mainly becuase of the contests in it..

 

[captainfez3]

Training usually. I always have a set team, but then I wonder about how other pokemon would work together, so I make new teams. That of course leads to gambling, so I can buy TM's and then it starts rolling from there.

What can I say? Pokemon is a fun game, eh?

 

[Gulpin]

I like doing challenges on games. Its a lot of fun, but I also like trading and *sometimes* EV training.

 

[OffRoadSP]

I want to catch 'em all. I've never successfully done that in any previous generation, but I'm determined in this one. So that will keep me coming back.

I think once I get the PokeRadar, shiny hunting will keep me interested. I've caught 2 shiny pokemon this generation by chance, and keeps me wanting more.

Competitive battling I'm not really into. I have EV-trained both my shiny pokemon, but they're definitely UU or NU tier - not fit for the true OU battles everyone looks for. I just took whatever random nature and IV's each had, and built a moveset around that. They're not powerhouses, but they're unique. So I guess doing stuff like that keeps me coming back for more.

 

[Black Omega Zero]

Only the Competitive Battling and the Battle Tower desire to make more records, that's Pokemon games to me...

 

[Mimikyu402]

I havent even left my game aside so I dont need to get back in the game I play most of my Gen 3 and 4 games every week

 

[dark_seeker]

BATTLE TOWER FOREVER:):):):):):):):)

 

[randomspot555]

Competitive battling and the Battle Tower

I'm starting to get into breeding. Not really for my own sake, because I have plenty of battle worthy Pokemon, but basically so I can nickname them, and prep a Platinum team.

Soft resetting. I have a Diamond copy where I'm about to face Dialga.

 

[AuraAshley]

for me i guess the fact that i crave to play it again so i start playing again

 

[Mr. Epic]

Well I always find stuff to do like continuing training of some Pokémon, searching and trading for some that I don't have and I used to go back for battling when I had a wireless connection.
