MDMRNOkay, I've been playing quite a bit of Pokémon LeafGreen of late. A lot of it.
It's so much fun.
A few things as my thoughts now that I'm about 3 gyms into it.
1. There's a lot I remember from Kanto from playing Blue and Let's Go Pikachu.
2. There's a lot I forgot about Kanto, despite playing through it a few times in both of the aforementioned games.
3. Not having automatic exp share among all my Pokémon team is killing me and having to go back to putting a weak one up front, then swapping to get them more exp has been such a ride. Haven't done that in so long.
4. I love my Ivysaur, part of me wishes I didn't nickname her Bulba, but it's too late now. And I don't want to change it. We're partners for life now.
5. I still play like I have always played - offense heavy with not a lot of stat based moves. I don't think I'll ever change my playstyle and, since I am not playing competitively, I don't think it matters.
6. Playing a GBA game on my TV is cool. I know I could do it with the original cart and a Gameboy Player for the Gamecube, stop reminding me that I gave mine away like 18 years ago.
