Ok guys.. I only want to give my opinion.. I'm not in jhoto yet, but this post is SCARING me.. PRO is famous for grinding and that is ok, but if the grinding in jhoto is really so hard people will lose hope, don't you think?
A lot of the answers on this post are "BUY A HIGH LEV POKE".. WTF answer is that? So the main solution about a really hard game is to buy poke from others? Jhoto is a really great story and i want to do it by my self like in kanto!! Why i have to struggle and sorrunder using a lv70 alakazam to finish the story? It is lame.. This is a Pokémon game, not a "market" game.. People buy poke only if they want something rare or something competitive for pvp, but to finish the story thanks to high lev poke of other trainers is not the main goal of playing a Pokémon game!!
I repeat myself, i'm not in jhoto yet, but i'm very near, and this post is really scaring me.. Because if this is the way to play the game after kanto, it lose A LOT of the "magic" that made me happy so far..
This is not a complain, i'm just worried, i love this game and i want to continue loving it..
Thank you for reading my opinion, and thanks for making such a beautiful game!!
