How do I force myself to finish XY. I really want to play Sun and Moon but this game is so fucking boring.
>>719377168By going to a doctor and getting them to fix your shit taste
>>719377219fpbp, OP XY was a blast, too bad you missed out on the online play which was the undisputed all time peak.
>>719377168just drop it, retard
>>719377168XY and ORAS are the best Pokemon games on 3DS, is not much but it it's what it is.Also, if you REALLY wanna play an Alola game for whatever reason skip SM and go straight to USUM.
>>719377168Just skip it and move straight forward to SuMo. It has one of the best hebes in the franchise.
>>719377270I'm already on the 4th gym and I want to see more Shauna.
>>719377168Don't bother then, it isn't really satisfyingYou're welcome to drop SM as well when you find out it's even worse
>>719377168Ost is real good
>>719377317This so much!
>>719377168>>719377330XY is just a really boring fucking game. Everything fizzed out by the 2nd gem badge and you've seen pretty much all the game has to offer. The game really needed a middle 3rd version.
>>719377516From left to right>Rape, rape and rape
>>719377219>>719377261I’d rather PLAY with my own shit then ever touch X and Y ever again. These games made me drop Pokémon for 5+ years. Genuinely not interested in legends Z purely because it takes place in that region.>Shit new Pokémon>the worst rivals >bland region>No roaming legendary Pokémon (no fucking Birds don’t count nor does mewtwo)>The worst evil team in flare>easy to the point an unborn human could finish itGenuinely baffled at people who defend this SHIT generation.
XY was only good with for online. they sacrificed a post-game and sequel just for online features. the only thing to do post-game is get zygarde, some other legendaries and rematch the E4 right? the battle chateau is there but feels like a gimped frontier
>>719377168Who is forcing you to play it?Just play a better game like everyone else
>>719377168sun/moon are way worse than X/Y, drop pokemon already.
You're gonna be even more bored with sun/moon, it's basically an island theme park built for kids to play pokemon trainer. Instead of just going out into the world, everything you do is part of the Island Trials.
I need a crash course on pokemon, trying to minimize how much I need to play in order to have a working understanding of them.I just need the 2d games, and I've played gens 1-3 and the 2d remakes to varying amounts, which just leaves Platinum and gen 5.I'm guessing I need to play B or W and B2 or W2?
>>719381608>I'm guessing I need to play B or W and B2 or W2?BW2 are sequels unlike the previous third versions, so ideallyI think most people here would recommend skipping to 2, but frankly 2 doesn't have much going for it over 1 except post-game and having more pokemon available if you're staunchly against the gen 5 pokedex, so could try 1 first
>>719377168Skip all dialogue.Set your first move to a high damage STAB so you can just mash trough wild Pokémon and easy trainers.Turn off sound and listen to jewtube slop while playing.
>bored of XY>but wants to play SMRegardless of whether you continue playing or just skipping don't play Sun/Moon, play Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon.>>719381608My thoughts on a basic guide to playing PokemonDon't play Red/Blue/Yellow, play Fire Red/Leaf Green(which it seems you already did). If you want to play the OGs just for completion/nostalgia sake play Yellow instead of Red/Blue. If you just can't get enough Kanto play Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee. I've not played it but it's apparently very gimmicky and for babies so like I said only play it if you really love Kanto like Game Freak wants you to.Don't play Gold/Silver/Crystal play HeartGold/SoulSilver. If you really can't get enough Johto just play Crystal and not Gold/Silver.Don't play Ruby/Sapphire play Emerald only. I would also recommend giving Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire a try even if you weren't super in love with Emerald but not back to back since both those games offer unique experiences and don't completely make one or the other obsolete like the Kanto/Johto games doDon't play Diamond/Pearl play Platinum only. For gods sake do not play Brilliand Diamond/Shining Pearl unless the mere thought of Sinnoh makes you cream your pants. Those games suck garbage.Play both Black/White and Black/White 2 since they're sequels, not third versions, so they're both completely unique games.X/Y never got a third version so just play one or the otherPlay Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon instead of the base versions. Only play the base versions if you're a completionist or fucking adored AlolaSword/Shield never got third versions so just play one or the otherScarlet/Violet never got third versions so just play one or the otherThe Legends games are technically mainline so play those too if you want.tldr; the minimum games to play if you want to say you've played every gen is(in order)FRLG, Emerald, Platinum, HGSS, BW, BW2, XY, USUM, SwSh, SV, and the Legends games.If you only care about 2D just stop at BW2
>>719377168I hate to tell you, but the 5 year old playing the latest Pokémon game didnt play every generation leading up to it. You don’t have to either. Especially when it’s been essentially the same game since gen 1
>>719377168XY are bland piss easy dogshit, but SM are borderline unplayable bland piss easy dogshit because of the Atticus interruptions. Just drop the series, replay the older games with romhacks, ir try a fan game.
>>719382864>Atticus interruptions.*atrocious lol
>>719377168Just drop it. You weren't around to experience XY's best feature by far: the online system. It's not the same playing without the massive online player base. It's okay to not finish games sometimes.
>>719377168it's the lowest point of the franchise by far. Just force yourself through it.
>>719377168>>719382824>>719382862>>719382864>Bash your head against the wall 100 times>Take severe brain damage to the point of heavy retardation>Modern nu-Pokémon games are FUN AND HARD again!It's that easy.
>>719381608Yes, Platinum is better than D/P in every way. For Gen 5 make sure you play the sequel of the original you actually played. There are new locations but you do retread old ground. I would say it's worth playing, but maybe not straight after B/W.

>>719377330>ShaunaShit tier waifu
Why are you playing games for 3-6 years old?
>>719377168Why do you have to finish a game you dislike?
After you finish I-III stop and leave the rest to your dreams OP.
>>719377168Sun and Moon is worse.
>>719385965faggot
>>719386025Why do you care? Weird.
>>719377168>I really want to play Sun and Moon>but this game is so fucking boring.oh honey
>>719377168Use exp share. You're welcome.
>>719377168Sun and moon are beyond boring with the constant cutscenes. XY is just too easy. but besides that it was a blast and had so much character customization.
>>719377168>I really want to play Sun and MoonJust kill yourself, that's all I'm going to say.
