It's fantastic, but I wouldn't even put it on par with a bored Uemetsu or Shimomura.

For my money, Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross still have the best VG OSTs of all time.

Now that i think about it, Team Rocket isn't nearly as cool as Gen 1 fans would like to believe. I mean, they are some criminal gang, but that is just about it. though Team Flare is kind of edgying them out on the lame side. They seem to be some bright clothed wearing dorks, but then again i am on my 5th badge Also, Team Rocket is more pathetic than the other teams. They get beaten up twice by little kids and judging by the trainers in Victory Road, Giovanni has probably lost alot of battles.

I think future Pokémon games should let the player choose to be an adult(or a least an older kid) it's not like the game's story depends on the fact you're a 10 years old trainer(ok, maybe the beggining does but I'd like character customisation to reach a point that it gets like in Battle Revolution at least)

I don't think any of the criminal gangs in Pokémon are great at what they do. They all get beaten by children.

That's...actually what makes them cool. They're believeable villains. Their motives are down to earth and practical, as are most of their actions in the game. I think the only unbelievable part is that despite being criminals, they'll still follow the code of conduct of Pokemon battles...but so do the rest of the Pokemon villains, so that's just how it goes.

Here is another bomb. I am glad the Exp point system returned from it's Pre-gen 5 thing. one of things i didn't like about Pokemon White and Black because i thought it needlessly crippled stronger pokemon's chances of leveling up. The Exp Share is the best thing in Pokemon X and Y since it allows the other team members to catch up without hurting the pokemon in battle.

Am I in the wrong thread? Because I'm pretty sure nobody liked the way exp worked in Gen V. It was a flawed system that only made grinding even more tedious than it already was.

What did Gen V do differently? I skipped that gen.

If by ''the best thing'' you mean the most broke item in the history of Pokémon, you're right. That item makes the game easier and more boring than it ever was before.

It's complicated, but basically the amount of exp changes depending on the difference in level between your pokemon and the opponent. So you could be grinding in one area, getting a lot of exp, but when you level up you'd get almost half the amount of exp you were getting before. Which wouldn't be so bad if your exp requirement stayed the same, but instead it increases just like in the other games. Maybe not as much, but still, it means grinding gets tedious really quick unless you keep finding stronger opponents, which of course is difficult because most of the time the Pokemon in the tall grass are at a lower level than the trainers, but most of the trainers can only be fought once. It means you have to stick with a party and keep moving, which is part of why the game goes by so quick.

Boring for you maybe, but I'd rather be overleveled than underleveled and be stuck grinding my whole team for hours. That's boring, besides if you want challenge; just turn the thing off. Nothing forces you to use it.

Yeah, I turned Exp Share off as quick as I could. I don't mind grinding so long as it doesn't take too long, and I don't mind a challenge either.

you know, you don't have to use Exp Share. and besides Making sure my team can catch up while i do my thing >> Having to excessly grind for hours just to make sure my team is at a respectable level. Espically since the only way to rematch anything is through the Battle Chateau

But scaled EXP requirements already encourage players to move to areas with better EXP rewards... why have penalties for level difference?

Sounds like something that makes less sense the more I try to understand it.

I left the Exp.Share on all the way up to the elite 4, I only start playing Pokémon for real after I get the story out of the way.
what's weird because I do the oposite in most other RPGs.
