Pokemon Black. Pokemon Black...... Might as well start with what I enjoy about this game right?

I think Patrat and Pansear are honestly really cool pokemon, might be a hot take around these parts but I really like those little dudes. Also the presentation is crazy good, though the animations are overrated I feel

Okay positivity is OVER. I think the story is by far the most overrated thing I've seen in a while. I find this story to be really boring and I think it only gets gassed up because mainline pokemon wise this is almost one of the best ones, but compared to games like the Mystery Dungeon series it pales in comparison. N is honestly really boring.

When it comes to teambuilding this is the game of all time. You are limited to the Unovan dex which wouldn't be the worse until you realize all the pokemon blow until like mid to late 40s when they finally evolve, there's too many pokemon in this game with horrendous stats until they evolve at a super late level, Final gym leader is level 43 for reference so at the very least the devs intended you to be suffering with shit like litwick and klinklang for at least a good portion of the game unless you over level. Which at least to me makes a lot of these pokemon super unfun to use.

Anyways yeah I don't like this game lol, Also out of every game not to include following pokemon why did they pick the one game where the entire story is based around how pokemon are your friends and genuinely enjoy human company? They even have sprites for most of the pokemon, was it that hard to make sprite art for the new pokemon?
