[SPOILERS] Pokemon Legends: ZA (10 hours)
Picked Chikorita since that was what I picked in Gold. But wouldn't have said no to Totodile...
Just saw someone mentioning they replayed XY before this - why didn't I think of it!? My 3DS is still somewhere in the house. But okay. I was busy with Fantasy Life i.
But where are all the familiar characters from XY - especially Clemont who was the gym leader of this very city!?
Slightly sad that we can't rollerblade anymore.
Continue to appreciate the QoL updates like being able to access boxes on the go.
And being able to max happiness with some cafe drinks…! Only ordered a sparkling water but there’s a croissant and takeaway cup. Hm.
On Structure
- The side quests remind me of Yokai Watch 4; no complaints there since you get that satisfaction from completing multiple small objectives. Enjoy the focus on Lumiose too.
- Favourite quest so far was in the museum. Appreciated the link back to Pokemon Legends: Arceus too. Even though I haven't finished the game...
On Battling
Lost to someone in the Battle Zone in my first night and later got knocked out by some Pokemon's attacks. That's a little too much lost Pokedollars for me...Though to be fair, it's not that hard to earn and I don't need so much money!? People keep giving me things.
The day/night switching took some getting used to - felt a bit fast at first but it's nice knowing you can kind of control them by using the bench.
Alpha Pokemon are kind of scary. Getting swarmed by Pokemon too. Mega Rogue Pokemon battles are also stressful!? But hanging in there somehow. Even caught an Alpha Magikarp somewhere in there.
I feel like I would have enjoyed battling all the way up through the alphabet!?
