The Arm Thrust move noise…. Hehe.
Team Plasma is narratively very underwritten. Team Rocket is fascism super club, Team Aqua/Magma are ecoterrorists with sympathetic gains, and here we got Team Plasma as a workers liberation front who just decide “eh it’s not so bad” as the finale. N/Ghesis bait and switch is laughably trite, and pulled so quickly at the end that you’re just like “lol.” Unfortunately the game is so stuck on the 8 badges before anything gets going part that it’s a victim of its own setup.
Music - couple bops in here, especially the bustling cities doing city pop / smooth jazz. 1.5x gate music is going up to YouTube right now because it’s a breakbeat/downtempo masterpiece.
Design - nothing really memorable here. Compared to previous gen’s lazy in naming and design. I empathize it’s hard. Just prefer Gen 3 or 1-2 more.
Delta, 1.5x speed, with share exp makes this a breeze… I can’t believe how much time we wasted as children. Were we just killing time to wait for our bodies to grow up to see the world? Narratively, the going off on your own with the resources you collect to build yourself up for the challenges of the world is always compelling. Me playing this as an adult is fun to look back and reminisce on the times I spent in the back of cars waiting for the me to graduate to the world.
ALSO YOU CANT NAME YOUR RIVAL — Gamefreak let me name them Buttdick I don’t need “Steve” or Genevieve or w/e it’s my fantasy
The sarcastic answers are nice addition
