Radiance64 7,046 October 12, 2013 Share October 12, 2013 (edited) Man, this game is beautiful. The lack of the 3D effect is a little dissapointing but it still looks really good. It's awesome how many Pokémon you can catch early on as well. Plus the battles flow almost as fast as 5th gen which is excellent. Overall, I'm really impressed so far, can't wit to dig in deeper.

Celtore 2,766 October 12, 2013 Share October 12, 2013 I love how early you can do EV grinding with the super training. Working with my starters before I progress much further in the game 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamil 315 October 12, 2013 Share October 12, 2013 I have to say... Horde battles against 5 pokemon that all know Sand Attack are really frustrating. Anyways, this is the first game where I'm actually aiming to catch ALL the Pokémon; normally I only catch ones I like unless I really need a certain type for a particular gym, but now that you can get all the EXP anyways I can catch everything and still train everything as well. And the new Experience distribution system makes leveling weaker pokemon go much faster, almost too fast considering I've got several level 20+ pokemon and wild pokemon are still below 12 (though I could go train some of the other pokemon I've caught instead of just my Charmeleon, Braixen, and Combusken). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, those damn scraggy's know how to piss you off. So far the game is good. I got the game yesterday and managed to get a head start. My friend has no life and somehow passed me. I'm going to get my second gym badge right now. Gameplay and music is awesome. I'm really glad they threw in a lot of references to past generations. Nice work Nintendo.

ReverseFaller 2,478 October 12, 2013 Share October 12, 2013 (edited) I've been playing the game for an hour or two now, it's pretty good. I'm in Lumiose city right now, and boy is it confusing at first. I'm changing my trainers hair at the moment. The game is pretty awesome so far. I got my Bulbasaur a few minutes ago, so I'm happy! The clothing store people won't let me in as apparently I'm not dressed well enough. The nerve! Those posh bastards!

Zygen 6,062 October 12, 2013 Share October 12, 2013 I got Pokemon Y and i'm so happy . I'm not that far in frankly, but i already love the game, the graphics are nice, the battle's are fast even in 3D, and look nice. The animations are cool, the pokemon you can get early on even is pretty large, the beggining intro is cool, the thing with your friends giving you a nickname made me laugh(I'm so lame, but it did ok?, btw i had them call me Z and I like it ;p.) Many little things i like, but overall am enjoying the game. Even if i'm only in the first forest right now. I hope to only continue to be impressed! Loving the experience so far! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moved to Elsewhere 11,322 October 13, 2013 Share October 13, 2013 All right I got Pokemon X today. Like the 3d look and walking diagonally. Also I keep thinking of Fluttershy whenever one of them uses the move play nice. Current badges: 1 current team: Froake nickname: Frogger level 13 Fletching nickname Rainbow dash level 15 Pikachu nickname Thunderlane level 12 Charmander nickname Toothless level 10 Guys I think I got stuck on route 8. The only path I can find out of it is a strength bolder and i don't have strength. What do I do to get out of it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamil 315 October 13, 2013 Share October 13, 2013 I'm not sure if there are far too many clear references to Ruby and Sapphire to NOT indicate remakes in the near-ish future, or if I'm just missing references to other generations and R/S are mentioned in only similar quantities. Anyways, I'm still looking for a sixth pokemon to round out my team. I don't exactly think that I absolutely need to have it all figured out by now, but looking at the type charts made me realize that despite having 3 fire type pokemon I can actually end up having a pokemon which gets STAB with super effective attacks against every type in the game, as long as that sixth pokemon is Rock/Ground. Admittedly, I could also vary the other pokemon in my team (I have a plain grass for my fifth right now, and offensively dual types only get more STAB so I could switch it for something else), and like I said I could end up changing everything... Except keeping all three of the fire starters I already have, that's definitely not changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiance64 7,046 October 13, 2013 Share October 13, 2013 I like that they updated the cries for the older Pokémon , the byte sounds may be classic but it's certainly a welcome change. What I don't like is how hard it is to find a male Litleo, ugh I don't even know if I want to use one but still.

Pinkie D Pie 1,035 October 13, 2013 Share October 13, 2013 I hate having to work on a day that a good game is released... got X version by the way. Might as well post things, I beat the first gym and am currently, as far as I know, near to the second. Trying to avoid really reading though this topic in case of spoilers... Anyways, I've already decided on my team for the end, or at least all but one. Fenniken Torchic Charmander Budew Pikachu All will be evolved much further by then. So far I love the game, I'm taking my time and doing everything I can and catching everything I can. Can't wait to see where the story goes. Guess that is it for now but I love the Kalos region!

Charcoal Embers 169 October 13, 2013 Share October 13, 2013 (edited) I have only made it to the first gym, but I almost have chespin evolved.

Radiance64 7,046 October 13, 2013 Share October 13, 2013 (edited) So Super Training is pretty fun actually. Managed to max out Torchic's Attack and Speed in it, it's not quite as fast as the 'ol vitamins/Pokérus/battle method but it gets the job done, and I'm surprised that it's this easy to EV train Pokémon as soon as you start the game basically. Will probably do the same with Charmander, I don't think I'll use either in the story though because I'd rather use all new Pokémon. Anyway, it's looking like that I'll want to make my team something along the lines of Froakie, Litleo(the best one I could find was female, and I got tired of looking for male ones, so I decided to go with it, sigh), Tyrunt, and Sylveon, dunno what'll be my last 2 yet though, perhaps Honedge and some new Grass type(Gogoat maybe). Oh, and does anyone know when/where you can breed in this game? Or/and if Ditto is in it somewhere?

PonyBoy15 428 October 13, 2013 Share October 13, 2013 Oh, and does anyone know when/where you can breed in this game? Or/and if Ditto is in it somewhere? on route 7 there is a daycare where you can drop them off there. I myself have stopped my adventure to EV train my team before they reach level 50. Looks like the ol griding days are over with this technique which is a HUGE time saver. I wish I tried it out much earlier in the game though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
