here is the beginning of my Pokémon mainline games marathon. i’m not playing EVERY game, just the third game in each generation, if there is one. or just a random game in between the two choices

anyways, yeah it’s not great. it’s really grindy and kinda boring. but it’s pretty cool to fight Jessie and James and be followed by my Pikachu. it feels like an actual adaptation of the anime, which i DO like. overall, i hope to see improvements as the franchise goes on, but i’m kinda expecting to play the same game every time :/

(i’m doing this marathon because i don’t like the mainline pokémon games, but i can’t successfully hate on them online if i haven’t actually played them. i’m playing them to hate them MORE)
