I didn’t have a Gameboy until I was… too late.

Are the original Pokemon games worth visiting for the first time? I know there is some nostalgic reasoning to play them, but should I try it as someone who hasn’t ever played one?

Have any of you done this?

    The wild Pokémon work very differently and they replaced HMs but otherwise it’s fairly similar to the other modern games.

      Oh I see, it was part of their reinvention to fix random encounters I guess.

        A lot of it was to capitalize on Pokémon Go’s success (the catching mechanic is nearly identical), but also people had been asking that wild Pokémon be visible in the over world for years
