It's a Pokemon game, so it's solid like the rest. I didn't really love gen VI, but XY introduced dressing up your player character, and I love that. I love the Fairy-type as well, though that's mostly because it made the Poison-type stronger as a result, and that's my favorite type. The story was pretty good here? When can we go back to fun stories instead of whatever Sword and Shield was trying to do...
Pokémon Y is the first MAINLINE game I played (the first Pokémon game I played was a spin off). Man it was fun collecting my Pokémon, leveling them up, exploring the map to find new Pokémon; the gym leaders, and while yes I heard this game is "too easy" because it was my first mainline Pokémon game I had fun.
This game is not great, but I still adore it after all this time. There's just something kind of silly about it... whether that's in a fun way or a bad way is up to you.
I was just happy to finally see my shiny G3 bulbasaur in 3D nothing else matters
I remember dropping this game after 2 gyms when it came out. Around the time Pokemon GO came out I picked it back up and liked it just fine. The difficulty is set pretty low and the aesthetics are bland, but Pokemon Y still introduced some cool things. I got pretty into the online before gen 7 came out, and the regional dex is one of the strongest in pokemon. That's more to say compared to let's go and USUM...
I don't personally have any strong feelings about it, probably an excellent kids first pokemon title though - hell a great kids first JRPG title, but fails to capture the magic of Gen3/4.
Honestly, I liked it a lot, but I have to admit it mostly just caught me in a good mood/place in my life. The new Pokemon are fun and I like Kalos as a region, but the plot is braindead and pretty French set-dressing doesn't count for much on a 3DS screen.
i have over 300 hours in pokemon y because i was super into competitive during gen 6. i dont think i can name a single location or character from this game
Flabebe
Had the novelty of being 3d, and I love chesnaught, but overall its okay. There's more to it than people give it credit for I think, but there's definitely better pokemon games.
it sure is
Pokémon in 3D was a mistake.
underwhelming, mega evolutions were nice but the pokemans introduced weren't that interesting
~0.5/5.~
Appaling. I literally can't mention something I like from this game, aside from the addition of the fairy type, which isn't even an amazing addition. Awful additions as the Mega's, forgettable and dull characters as the rivals which are probably the worst in the franchise, a convulted story which has an awful execution and ends abruptly. I dislike everything that cames from this game. Disapointing.

Loved this back in the day, wild how it's 10 years old almost
Pokemon's always had kind of a rough go of it when they upgrade to a new console, huh? Well, at least since the DS era, anyway. Pokemon XY are no different, but I still think it's a pretty enjoyable gen in spite of that. The Pokemon variety route to route makes it pretty fun to try new team compositions on different playthroughs and makes it pretty fun to do Nuzlocke runs, especially.
The story itself isn't great, which comes off considerably worse after how fantastic Gen 5's story was, and the characters feel a little underbaked. I don't think the friend team were bad, necessarily, but they definitely could've stood to have more development. Like... Trevor's whole backstory is contained in a house in Luminose that's easy to miss because Luminose is a nightmare to navigate. It never comes up outside of that despite being a pretty cool hook for a character arc? It's a mess. HOWEVER, the Looker storyline in the postgame is genuinely really good, so it's actually worth getting to the game for that.
Megas are a lot of fun and I kind of miss them, honestly, though the distribution is kind of baffling. Who thought Garchomp needed one. Also I really do like this gen's Pokemon, a lot of them are very cute and good. Outside of the great Looker storyline there isn't much of a postgame except for the obligatory Battle Tower type thing, and this... really feels like it needed a third version? A Z version, perhaps, about the third legendary that was weirdly inserted into Sun and Moon? Ehh, we need to get to the next gen for the anniversary. It'll be fine.
Anyway, this gen is very much imperfect, but I thought it was a lot of fun anyway.

Mesma opinião do X
The weakest mainline Pokémon game, but even bad Pokémon is still pretty darn fun
My first wild encounter was a shiny Flabebe
Start of the decline. This one felt like more of a tech demo and the story and characters were the most forgettable in the series. Mega evolutions were interesting but rarely well executed.
Completely rekindled my love for the franchise. Had so much exploring the world and catching Pokemon. The EXP. Share meant that I could just catch all the Pokemon that I liked and didn't have to worry about grinding. Due to having a team of 20 Pokemon to rotate through, I was even underleveled at the end of the game! Final party consisted of: Pangoro (Knuckles), Blastoise (Gunner), Aurorus (Krystallos), Garchomp (Chomp!), Lapras (Queen), Goodra (Smiley), Aegislash (Hexcalibur), Blaziken, Talonflame (Talonblaze), Absol (Lady), Raichu (Rai), Pyroar (Nala), Vivillon (Autumn), Chesnaught (Juggernaut), Haxorus (X), Lucario (Wolf), Gengar (Spectre), Klefki (Kiki), Yveltal (Armageddon) and Pupitar (Empress).
This dex is by far my least favorite. Nothing particularly stood out to me about this one.
My Inkay 4-0d my friend's team in a randbat using our boxed mons as the available pool and became part of my main team from there on #CALAMARDI
it is a pokemon game. i feel like i was mad about the whole 3d thing when it came out
I never rly like the chibi look of this game. Trevenant is a great addition tho.
liked it the same as pokemon x but i prefer xerneas over yveltal
I can now claim I have completed a Pokemon game
all i cared about was the pokemon amie yarn game. other than that this game was lame. training pokemon was so confusing
