    Kid wasn’t really into this game. Maybe because they’re all the same as the others.

    Worst Remakes

    These are the worst pokemon remakes hands down. They pawned them off onto another studio who clearly didnt have enough time or passion or both to make a polished game. The characters all look like gumby, the battle animations are awkward, and they royally screwed up the music. Avoid

    A mediocre 1-1 remake of the inferior versions of the Sinnoh Pokémon games. Need I say more?

    Pretty much just as expected, full of nostalgia but missing a few classic bits and far too easy.

    I just enjoy collecting Pokemon and battling them. I don't mind the exp share at all; it saves so much time grinding.
