we weren't ready for this game, but a big reset like this was exactly what pokemon needed

pokemon will never be this good again. game freak knew this was their last 2d pokemon game and the amount of effort they put in may never be seen again. one of the most gorgeous games on the ds and absolutely loaded with content. play the original black or white first for the full effect. if you skipped out on gen 5 i beg of you to experience it

the replayability is great if you love using the same few pokemon over and over again and only beat the first four gyms
