My History of Pokemon Games

After buying my 3DS I haven't had much chance to play it. I ordered a new R4 (because my old one wouldn't work, right) and waited ages for it to arrive. By the time it did come through the mail, I guess I was bored to shits. I started playing Pokemon Black 2, but I became sooo incredibly bored. It just felt like every other Pokemon game I ever played. I was no longer impressed or amused.

The thing with previous Pokemon is that every new game has had something more to offer. The original Pokemon was great because hey, it was the first Pokemon ever. The second generation was wonderful because it had a new region, it had color, AND the new added Pokemon was kind of cool. Third gen, I stopped caring about the new Pokemon, but the graphics took a major improvement, as well as the music. New features such as the mach bike, running shoes, being able to move your Pokemon without depositing then withdrawing... etc.

Then every generation after that, it was just mediocre. I was rather bored by Pokemon platinum, thinking that the protagonists both looked horrendously ugly. I migrated my level 100 Alakazam (his name was Misery, thought you should know) from my Emerald version--- the last version of Pokemon I enjoyed, and smashed through the game. It wasn't fun. I also smashed Pokemon frontier (meant to be a super hard end-game challenge) with ease.

Pokemon Black and White came, and I played, staying loyal to the franchise. Hell, I played Leaf Green and Heart Gold before this, so why not play the newest one? I quite liked Pokemon Black and White, to be honest. Like, but didn't really enjoy it much. The storyline was my favorite part. It was new, it was different--- but it got watered down so much for the kiddies that it lost so much meaning. I sometimes wish they made an adult version of Pokemon--- and no, I don't mean Pokemon porn, Jesus Christ, I mean a Pokemon game with slightly darker themes and non-retarded characters. Though the chances of my wishes coming true are rather slim indeed...

Anyway, now I'm playing Pokemon Black 2. I've been catching everything decently looking that I come across... and I found some joy in naming my Riolu "Riley", but I think I should've gone with Ryan--- or Lucas. Otherwise when it evolves into a Lucario, "Riley" would just sound weird, right?

I think I've just become detached to Pokemon. The only thing I ever cared about (and will ever care about) is Misery, my Alakazam. I guess I should move him over to my newest games...

Eh, I guess when Pokemon X and Y get released, I'll still play for the heck of it. Though my excitement for Pokemon is dying, I'm hoping it'll revive some childhood nostalgia when I pick up X and Y.

Oh, btw, the 3DS stop killing my eyes. I can reasonably tolerate it now. Though I guess I'll tell you about my 3D experience another time.
