My problems with the game

[Clawreviews]

To start things off, I have finished all 8 gyms in Kanto and am on the Elite Four, I always felt like something was off but couldn't describe it until I started playing the main series games again. These are some of my biggest complaints with the game and why I find it somewhat un-enjoyable. In the main games, you can switch pokemon when a trainer is about to send out a pokemon you can choose to stay and fight or battle with a different pokemon. For PvP I understand it but for PvE it's kind of upsetting, it makes having a glass cannon like Alakazam not really worth having because he's gonna get hit and it might kill him 1 shot since he is a glass cannon.

 

It also makes grinding harder, which is another reason I don't find myself enjoying the game, In the main game you get to around 60-70 and you battle the elite four, you do that by battling gyms and going with the normal flow of the game. It doesn't really break unless you decide you'd like to grind up a level 10 dratini you just got from a trade or something, but that's your choice, you're breaking the flow not the game. In revolution, it's less about flow and more about grinding. No EXP share also makes this just a chore.

 

Also the lack of diversity is a big issue, it's not fun running across a nidoran at level 14 and then doing it again at level 40, I get you have to have membership exclusives but come on, you have over 700 pokemon at your disposal.

The set mode (when you cannot switch your pokemon when your opponent's pokemon faints) is made to increase the difficulty of the game. I mean, in the officials games, any 8 years old kid can easily finish the game without losing a single battle and there is absolutely no challenge at all. PRO is a MMO, which means you have to spend a lot of time grinding/farming to build your team in order to get through gym leaders/elite 4 which are deliberately supposed to be hard (not that hard btw, any Gengar/Gyarados will destroy them but that's an other debate). So there is no point here to make the game easier by implementing exp share or shift mode.

What i think is that if you don't like the game just play the main games. At first i didn't like a lot of things in the game, but, i got used to them within a couple of days. What i think is that you should stop whining on the forums and either get used to the game, or, just play the main games.

 

Have a nice day. :Smile:

It's not whining, it's a valid criticism lol

Never gonna happen

Also, get something like Umbreon/Vaporeon baton pass; as long as it survives one hit and is slower than the opponent.. or just put Alakazam first

Couldn't say it better than Einheria:

You just did one region... There are 3 of them + 3 custom areas + 3 MS only areas (counting all seven sevii islands as one area)

Of course you won't have all 721 pokémon only in Kanto
