So months and months later and it turns out I've deleted the game and moved on as I just can't get on with the gameplay at all.

Yeah it's fun to see a bunch of interactions with different Pokémon characters but I'm sorry, I'm not fucking going through hours and hours of the same boring battles against the same boring NPC's just to see them, no thanks.

Not even Ash and Pikachu from a prior event can keep me going.
