Also I was told @ Weeman is here.

Where is he.

SHOW YOURSELF!

WHO DARES TO SUMMON ME?!

 

[LIQUID12A]

Am I the only one here who doesn't care about Pokemon? D:

I really don't care for the newer games since I wouldn't invest that much time in them given I have Smash.

As a whole, though, I still care for it.

 

[Shaymikyu]

I admit I don't invest nearly as much time and love into Pokémon anymore. I still adore the heck out of it and will buy every new main game and some of the spin-offs ASAP, but ever since around the last couple of years I've opened my mind more to new games and I'm just enjoying the fresh experience of trying things like Fire Emblem for the first time more.

I wouldn't say the series changed in a way that turned me away, though. It's just me.

 

[Hong]

Am I the only one here who doesn't care about Pokemon? D:

I finished with Pokemon before @ The Merc was even born. Red/blue was enough for me.

It is I. Yield to your master.

 

[Elezir]

Btw, just to install fear into you guys who ordered amiibos.

I actually felt bad for the guy who ordered it. and a Ness, on top of that...

If this happens to my Ness after all the crud I went through to get him, I will scream until my lungs explode.

This is why you don't use PK Teleport in crowded areas or near jet engines.

I can't believe it took me this long to realize that i'm Mexican and i joined these boards on May 5th, and it wasn't even on purpose

Poke who?

Should've had Poo use Teleport Beta. It uses more PP, but at least you won't run into things. Heck, Ness stole Poo's moves anyway, so the prince of Dalaam should have at least taught him that.

Honestly, Poo never really had a role in my party. He was so much of a Jack-of-all-Trades, that I commonly forgot that I could heal or teleport with him.

Also there's this beheaded Shulk amiibo, too.

I have only found these two as amiibos destroyed because the transporter was careless, though. It's actually kinda surprising.

Poo was basically just a second Paula and sometimes a healer for me, with Teleport used if Ness's Teleport was inconvenient.

Obligatory "let's not lose our heads though" comment.

I freaking need to follow up on this thread more often :/

 

[Weeman]

So no one likes Pokémon anymore huh?

In all seriousness though, Pokémon for me is kinda hard to describe, i was a fanboy when was younger, but then lost interest to the point where i skipped a good chunk of the third gen and the entire fourth gen.
Then Black and White brought me back to the series and i realized something:
The joy of the main Pokemon games comes from discovering the region and the monsters yourself. I came to the fifth gerneration unspoiled and fresh. Some designs disgusted me, some amazed me, and as a whole i felt like playing Red/Blue with my brother again.
Then the 6th gen came and i realized why i left the series in the first place, there wasn't much to enjoy after i knew all the new features from the beginning. Admitedlly i also got into "competitive" Pokémon, wich helped me into actually investing hours in X and Y, but it gets tiring really quick, and i already skipped ORAS, so feel like i might leave the series again.

 

[Shaymikyu]

Admittedly, part of the reason I might have enjoyed X and Y more than some others is because I remain "unspoiled" (as much as you can for Pokémon, anyway). I had all of fifth gen spoiled for me, but with X and Y, I came in rather fresh not even knowing all of the megas or new Pokémon. The same sort of happened with OR/AS (well, as much as you can for a remake of a game you've beaten 1000 times) but I did have one part of the Delta Episode spoiled for me that WASN'T in the previews. I also feel like the pre-release coverage gave too much away. Leave some megas for us to discover, and keep the Delta Episode's existence even an entire mystery like how Kanto was in G/S.

Jack Frost!
...
Oh...Er, cough.
Yeah, the main pokemon games can get rather repetitive, and while it's fun and all to fill your pokedex by capturing little monsters and trading with friends, it's not my prime choice in gaming.
As I already stated in striked lines, I only played every main pokemon game 'til XY because it was cheap for me: I played all of them until Black/White 2 in emulators. The first pokemon game I actually bought was XY, and even so I don't feel tempted in buying ORAS when I can, say, use that money to buy Fire Emblem if or Bravely Second, series I'm far more interested in. Even the mega evolution was a quite 'meh' addition for me, as it reminds me of Digimon.
Now, not to say I wouldn't actually pay for a new Pokemon Conquest, for example. Some of the pokemon spin offs are far more interesting than the main games.

 

[Moydow]

I think I burned myself out with Pokémon around the third or fourth generations. I put countless hours into Ruby and Diamond, but I've barely touched any of the more recent ones, even Omega Ruby, which I had expected to spend forever on (it being the remake of my favourite in the series).

 

[Shaymikyu]

New Pokémon Conquest, Ranger, and Mystery Dungeon please. I love the main series, but I think I loved all of those even more.

Oh, and another Orre game.

 

[False Sense]

Hello, everyone.

I'd like to introduce @Royvolution Ream to the Robin boards. He's a Robin fan himself and wanted to get to know the place better. Would you all give him a warm welcome?

Why don't you say hi to everyone, Ream?

It's okay. His eleven other Ness amiibo came out fine.

@Royvolution Ream
Welcome!

Royvolution Ream Welcome to the Robin social thread!

Run and don't turn back, you don't know what you're getting into

 

[Zantetsugun]

I've had an interesting relationship with Pokémon. When I was young, I ADORED IT! I watched the anime religiously, and I had a card collection to be proud of. But I never played the games, except for renting Stadium 1 and 2 a couple times. As for the main series they just flew completely under my gaming radar, even though I got a GBA relatively early in it's lifespan. For some inexplicable reason I just never crossed paths with the games, not in stores nor in advertising. Then I started to drop out of the anime sometime towards the end of the Hoenn arc, and Pokémon just ended up falling to the wayside for me. I still thought of myself as a fan of Pokémon, but not nearly to the same degree. Then a few years ago, I started watching NintendoCapriSun's Blind Let's Play of Sapphire, and something about it just clicked for me. Watching someone else's first experience with the series brought me back to that place and feeling of so long ago. My love of Pokémon had a rebirth of sorts. So I borrowed my younger sister's DS and her copy of Pokémon White, and I just played. I got hooked on Pokémon all over again, but in a completely new way than from my youth! It was like living my childhood fantasies of being a real Pokémon trainer. Not long after beating it, I ran out and got a 3DS to play Pokémon Y. While I was playing that I snagged a copy of Diamond off Amazon. Then I ended up getting Alpha Sapphire the day it came out. But ever since that fateful day my love of Pokémon returned twofold, and I've loved every minute of it. While I've only completed Diamond and White so far (except for some endgame stuff) I've been loving every second of it. I supposed I have the advantage of experiencing these games for the first time, as opposed to many of you who have been playing for years, so I can understand your sentiments. But for me, I think my affection for Pokémon is here to stay!

...... Well this has been story-time with Zantetsugun, sorry for the wall of text. If you read all of that, then thanks.

I still like pokemon, theres something awesome about an RPG where you make your own party.
also hi @Royvolution Ream

Easily my favorite part of the games, even to this day. I love assembling my crew and making up personalities and stories for each Pokémon in my head.

 

[The Merc]

That's Kirito from 2nd season of Sword Art Online.
Btw, he's in trap form there.

Kirito? Sword Art Online? Trap from? He?!

I finished with Pokemon before @ The Merc was even born. Red/blue was enough for me.

This, surprisingly, is actually true.

Hello @Royvolution Ream and welcome to the R.S.T.

Listen not to those fools who follow St. Garon. For they will lead you into the path of true darkness, where there are no cookies.

Disrespect Garon.

In all seriousness, welcome to the thread, choose whichever path you want to follow (no promises I won't annihilate you if you choose the wrong one), and have fun.

Hmm. This @Royvolution Ream... Yes, yes. Subject meets specified parameters. Good. Access authorized.

Yeah, I really need to get into anime more.

It wouldn't be fair otherwise.

 

[Célja]

My issue with the newer Pokemon games is there has been a decreasing amount of post game content. That and it feels as if the games have gotten progressively easier. Plus Gamefreak has made a tendency to reveal a lot more information about the upcoming games when I feel that they should give out less to have us learn about things ourselves.

New Pokémon Conquest, Mystery Dungeon and another Orre game.

HYES!

I would love it if we could get one of these. Conquest was a great idea and I had a blast playing it. Mystery Dungeon is probably my favorite spin off since they have some of the best stories and nice soundtracks. Colosseum was really enjoyable to see such a darker tone in a Pokemon game not to mention it was our first 3D Pokemon adventure game with a unique protagonist.

Please Gamefreak, as cool as it would be to see the inevitable Gen 7, I would love a curve ball and have something like a Conquest sequel or something of the sort.

Actually, i don't think it is.

I do agree that they feel easier lately. I wish they started including difficulty options.

I'm torn on the postgame content, though. X and Y were skimpy, but so are most first games in a gen. OR/AS had quite a bit to do. Maybe not Frontier level, but still better than some of the other games.

I still stand by the Mystery Dungeon series having the best writing in any Pokémon game, spin-off or otherwise.

G'Day @Royvolution Ream. Welcome to the Robin threads

Eh, Kirito's a pretty mediocre trap. I've seen better, and less overpowered. I haven't really been able to get into the pokemon games recently. I started playing with Gen 2. I feel like the games have gotten a bit too easy in the recent iterations. I also tried playing pokemon conquest but I didn't like it too much. It just felt to me like it didn't have enough substance. I loved mystery dungeon games though. Only played blue, and explorers of sky though.

If I remember, Black/White tried including a difficulty option, but you couldn't change it until you beat the main game, and in order to get both options you had to do that 'key trading' thing with someone who had the other version. So it was badly executed but at least they tried.

Post game was pretty meh for X and Y, ORAS did have some nice stuff but the lack of a Battle Frontier was disappointing. It's too bad we'll probably never get anything like what Johto did and have us be able to visit another region after completing the main game.

Mystery Dungeon by far has the best writing in a Pokemon game. It's one of the few games to have made me tear up, which I never would have expected from a Pokemon game. If we ever get a main title with a story on par of something like Explorers of Time/Darkness I would be pretty happy.
