Hehehe, it's only been two years tongue

I'm sad they shut the door on Generation 5 so soon, but nevertheless, I'm hoping to get Pokemon Y when it comes out (and a 3ds to play it on \:D/ )

I preordered X. I havent played a pokemon game since blue and this game just looked good. 3DS was easily my best recent purchase.

Ive never gotten into them, and I was the assumed target age when they first came out. Whats the appeal?

I'm not getting either X or Y, I didn't get black 2 or white 2 either. After playing White (or Black, I can't remember) and finding it disappointing, and infuriating, I stopped playing pokemon. Also mega evolutions a shit, my darling absol looks jank.

I haven't preordered but I'm for sure getting them. I've been playing since Blue.

The game play is a really well balanced turn based RPG, and you can build a team of 6 that cover the weaknesses of your other team members in a weird 17 x 17 choice quasi rock paper scissors type deal.

If any of that sounds appealing at all, sit down with Pokemon Emerald for like an hour, and see if you like it.

I've been playing since Red, the very first game I bought with my own money. I later bought Blue and traded between them to complete my dex. big_smile

Each legendary has a general shape to their silhouette. The deer maxes an X.

Am I misunderstanding this or has a lot changed since I last played?

I got bored with it early in the series (first or second gen was when i quit actively playing and just started helping out others), but i may give it a shot.

Anyone else use a game genie back in the early years to collect pokemon not usually available in game?
