I think this game is absolutely adorable but that's my biggest positive comment. While it's many flaws make me want to rank it lower, I did play this for several days straight when I first got it, so they got me there 💀
I don't mind the GO-style catching mechanic, but I also miss the option to actually battle wild Pokemon. This also makes the post-game so frustrating to me, catching Pokemon being the main way to grind exp unless you wanna challenge the elite 4 again. This also makes getting money post-game for pokeballs to be kind of a slog.
The master trainer additions were an odd choice too? Like, sorry but I'm not gonna grind my caterpie up to level 70 so I can have the world's most uninteresting battle with another level 70 caterpie.
Overall, kinda unremarkable. Not offensively bad, but left me feeling underwhelmed. If you want to experience gen 1 pls play FireRed or LeafGreen.
