@axel Neither are particularly challenging or meaty. I guess Sword / Shield is probably meatier if you include the DLC content. In my opinion, the best part of said DLC content wouldn't be enjoyable really while traveling though. I still suggest waiting, but between the two I guess I'd slightly give favor to Sword / Shield. At least with that one you're seeing the more modern direction of the series, versus BDSP being aimed as faithful remakes for people who never played the Sinnoh games originally, with a couple menial extras baked in. I still suggest just waiting until Legends Arceus and playing something else in the meantime. That SMTV just came out and has creature "capturing" and "battling" with, so maybe that?

This is making my head hurt. I want to plug in my N64 and find my save on Blue because I could swear I had an attack with my Metapod but apparently it’s not possible. Am I going crazy here?

@edsortiz said in Brandon Plays Pokémon Gen 2: @Stormcrownn @ZyloWolfBane Getting a 10-15 minute once a week show is not as easy and simple as 10-15 minutes. He has to make time to play the game which means stop doing other things and also prepare the recording and editing ect.ect.. That takes hours. They have their hands full already and want to focus their time on different things. Aware of that, that's why my original post mentions wishing they had the time for it -_^

The PC the PC the PC!! I can't fully express how much it pleases me as somehow who battles and trades with friends a lot how nice it is to have a simple and quick PC. No more entry menu. No more having to back out of moving Pokemon to move items. It can all be done on the same screen. Nothing else. I don't know what else they could do to perfect it in the future except my idea of maybe making a smart watch device that has the PC mobile for the next gen. Gamefreak I give you permission to take my idea.

The long awaited Brandon Sun review! :D Youtube Video

@michemagius Ahh :( If it were 6v6 that would be great but VGC Doubles I won't be any help to you in practice, sorry. Though I was thinking about getting serious with VGC. I just find it more fun personally to do 6v6 Singles with my friends. And classic 6v6 singles in general. I'd rather be of help to you than not. Maybe if i get into VGC later i'll post here.

@Hero-of-Lime I am really looking forward to trying Gen V again but it might have to wait until after I'm done with Sun and Moon but we will see! After I'm done with my current playthrough of SoulSilver I'll be jumping into Omega Ruby. If I finish that and have a good chunk of time left before Sun and Moon's release I'll get started on Black.

Good luck with this! I completed the national Dex back in 5th gen, which took a loooooooong time, but it was very satisfying. When sixth gen came around, getting all the new Pokemon was pretty easy due to the smaller number of them. It also took several hours to make a "living Pokedex" in my Pokemon Bank, but I did it! By the way, if anyone needs help with certain Pokemon, I can help as best as I can. That includes event legends.
