Pokémon Y

Stunning game, pretty neat visuals for something on the 3DS, and it's Pokémon. What else is there to know? Also, I'm sure I received a legitimate copy, not a reprint, which has made me extremely happy.

Happy with my purchase from a private seller. The game was really fun and as a fan from the classic gbc games, it wasn’t over the top like the newer games are. The new Pokémon introduced were cool with a great mix of older generations as well.

I am an avid collector of all things pokemon. I purchased X when it was originally released, and decided to buy this version, Y, when the Pokémon Legends Z-A trailer was released since I wanted to replay through the Kalos region while also adding the other version to my collection of Pokémon games.The X and Y games are personal favorites of mine, as they introduce my favorite mechanic in any Pokémon game: mega evolutions!

For longtime Pokémon players the series’ debut on the 3DS is like a dream come true. This is in almost every way the Pokémon game my 12 year old self was waiting for.The most important change is that Pokémon are rendered in full 3D models, finally moving away from the series’ traditional sprites. Battles immediately remind me of Pokémon Stadium on the N64 only shrunk to the palm of your hand (not to mention the superior graphics).I had the pleasure of visiting France the Summer before Pokémon X/Y came out so immediately I was able to appreciate the Kalos Region’s design. This new cultural aesthetic really feels like a breath of fresh air.A small, but appealing feature is the ability to customize your character’s in-game appearance through skin color, hair, and clothes. This may seem like no big deal, but ever since I first played Pokémon Blue I’ve wished I could edit the appearance of my sprite. Game Freak has finally brought that feature and we can only hope they give us more choices in future titles.If Pokémon X/Y has one weakness it has to be the story. I know, I know, no one really plays these games for the story, but this game’s antagonists, Team Flair, really are a step down in quality. While the teams have always been Saturday morning cartoon villains at least they threatened the protagonists. Team Flair comes across as a group of incompetents rather than a group dead-set on changing the course of history.The game’s single-player campaign is also ridiculously easy. A beefed up Exp. Share makes level grinding a thing of the past and more often than not you walk into every gym and Team Flair battle with a team that towers over the competition. In short, I understand Game Freak wanting to cut back the hours typically spent on grinding, but if this device is going to become a mainstay in the series they’re going to have to level up the boss battles.Another thing that will bother veteran players is the lack of post-game content. Once you’ve beaten the Kalos Region Pokémon League there really isn’t much to do other than continue filling your Pokédex.Those small problems aside, Pokémon’s leap into the 3DS is a spectacular success sure to entertain old and new fans alike with its 3D recreation of the creatures we know and love. For that it receives my highest recommendation.

I'll be honest, I have never been a huge fan of the Pokemon games. I always found their gameplay to be too repetitive and easy for my liking. To be fair though, I have only played the most recent ones and I heard that the older ones are tougher and pose more of a challenge for players. Unfortunately this one doesn't change the trend of being easier, but at the very least, it has a solid storyline and a fun and interesting region to explore bursting with charm. I especially loved exploring all the many different cafes in Lumiose City. Skating around that city gave me the illusion of true freedom. Along the way you will meet plenty of interesting characters who will make your journey more meaningful with each badge you collect. My only real problem besides the difficulty, is that there really isn't much of an end game in comparison to past Pokemon games. The game kind of fizzles out after the credits roll, which is unusual to me since I am pretty used to some splendid surprises from Nintendo games in particular. On the bright side though, the game boasts a very accessible and easy to use online trading system. You can choose to either trade one of your random Pokemon for another random one, or trade one of your specific Pokemon for another specific one. Very easy to use. There also happens to be something called a Battle Chateaux in the game which pits you against various trainers of various skill levels and allows you to rank up as well. I found these trainers to be the best way to level up my Pokemon personally. All in all, it is a very good Pokemon game that ties into the show of the same name very well. I just wish the series would become a little more hardcore in the future so I actually have a reason to want to come back and play another entry. There are more features in the game that I haven't mentioned but you can go check those out for yourself. Great starting point for new fans!

Jogo muito bom uns dos melhores pokemons que já joguei

My favourite of the Pokemon Games. They added a bunch of new features that really add to the experience. Tons of encounters, excellent dungeons and some challenging random trainers. The difficulty isn't particularly difficult, but it is a children's game so that is to be expected.Copy came brand new and worked immediately

Excellent

Pokemon se ha caracterizado por ser un gran RPG. ambientación, música, estrategia, historia, diseño de pokémons, ataques y megaevoluciones se conjugan para darle paso a mil y un variantes a la hora de armar tu party.Personalmente tenía más de 5 años que me había alejado de la saga, (tomando en cuenta que lo último de Pokémon que jugué fue la versión platino y no quede a gusto) y creo que es un gran regreso.A la hora de querer conectarse con otros amigos, mejoró considerablemente, y esque con tan solo un menú se encuentran todas las funciones para poder interconectarte, intercambios, batallas con tus amigos, batallas con algún desconocido, intercambios sorpresa o simplemente saludar a tus contactos lo hacen una experiencia que refresca.

version anglaise qui ne fonctionne pas sur les ds françaises! malheureusement il faut le deviner car ce n'est pas précisé: une surprise gachée...
