Holy shit

The hype for this gen was unreal. I remember really enjoying it but wishing it had more content. Poor Zygarde still has no lore. Friend Safari was addictive as FUCK as well. First and only gen where I figured out EV and IV shit

Last ones I really played were Pearl/Diamond and I can't even comprehend how time has flown by so much since then.

Having recently played the only glaring issues I had were with difficulty, lack of post game content, and some needed balance to Megas. All of this likely couldve been fixed with a Z version.

I like a lot if not most of the Pokemon brought into XY (Give us Furfrou back Game Freak!)... but I'm not really into the region or the story/characters... Much prefer USUM...

I still go back and play XY though since I randomly replay every mainline game...

Amazing how stylin the outfits were and then they decided every gen was going to have dogshit outfits afterwards.

I post clips of my cool, stupid and glitchy MH Sunbreak and Tears of the Kingdom gameplay here just for fun.

God yeah, that part sucks. By the time you get to the right side of the map the veneer is starting to peel off.

By the time you get to the postgame you realise there's no more game apart from the competitive spreadsheet simulator online. It's literally optimised for grinding IVs/EVs with the proximity of the daycare to the level/money grind house and the one area with a rotating camera where you can hold right on a bike without even looking at the screen. Spamming skate tricks in front of the daycare makes eggs spawn faster.

You go upstairs in the postgame battle arena looking for a crumb of content and get told by an NPC, in E-rated language, to basically fuck off. They made it clear that this RPG was meant for people who don't read that text.

One of the best Champion themes and a cool design tbh

XY / Gen 6 got me back into Pokemon. The pre release hype was almost smash bros level

The Mega Evos is still one of the better gimmicks Gamefreak made.

X/Y were a great base for gen 6 but (as was already mentioned) were sadly devoid of any good postgame content. The hypothetical Z version that would have added this much-needed postgame content could have been an all-time great remembered alongside Platinum, HG/SS, and B2/W2 if it actually came to fruition, but sadly, it never happened. Zygarde getting robbed of its spotlight and Eternal Flower Floette vanishing without a trace before it could even officially release is just sad to look back on.

I liked Diantha and honestly wasn't expecting her to be the Champion, but her team was just so bad and thanks to the Exp Share (even having turned it off at various points throughout the game) I was several levels over her.

If new were the last good games then XY feel like the last games gamefreak tried nearly as hard. If you had told me Pokemon would only sink lower and lower. 10 years ago, I wouldn't have believed you.
