I've not played a Pokemon game since I played Blue as a kid.

I really want to play a new one though and have decided I will get a 3DS to give Sun/Moon a go.

In preparation, what other games are worth a go?

>Hey Anon, want to pick a 2nd name for yourself, but have you pick the lamest one?
>Hey Big Anon, let talk about nothing
>Hey Big Anon, lets meet up at a restaurant to talk about a shitty gameplay device for the millionth time that you'll never use
>Hey Big anon, where are you going? We have to go see this haunted house with absolutely no Pokemon
>Hey Big Anon, you exiting from the gym. Thought I say Hi
>Hey Big Anon, want to see my fat dance
>Hey Big Anon! Why are you pressing the A button so much? Don't you care about the story?
>Hey Big Anon! Do you miss N or Silver? I don't!

God these characters are insufferable in XY. I hate the professor, the friends and those stupid twins. They are just a nuisance when I want to play the game. I don't remember the past characters being this bad. They are so filler and talk so much about stuff I already know, and not going to use.

Gridfag here from last night, here's what I know:

>Pokemon spawn sites are generated in a grid.
>This grid is based on the borders of the nearest road, and is not a strict Vertical/Horizontal grid.
>It appears to spawn the first pokemon 15 metres in from the road way, likely to prevent kids from being turned into carpaccio.
>The grid appears to generate spawn sites scaled alongside the total area - the larger the area the larger the distance between spawn sites.
>The distance between spawn sites in my example is 75m.
>Pokemon are not constantly at the spawn site (they appear to appear after a random interval, disappear after another random interval and repeat), however pokemon will not be found outside these spawn sites (with the exception of lures and Incense).
>You should only need a handful of spawn sites to figure out the grid in your local area.

What the steps indicate:
>No steps:
Spawn site is in immediate vicinity, pokemon should appear, app prone to glitches.
>1 step:
Equivalent to one third of a zone, as zones change size based on area, this can be anywhere between 5 and 25 metres.
>2 steps:
More than a third of a zone away, less than one zone away.
>3 steps:
More than one zone away, have not yet determined the cap.

To use the grid to catch pokemon.
>Monitor your nearby list.
>Find desired pokemon.
>Walk down grid lines until pokemon is near the top of the list.
>Walk to every grid intersection until the steps are reduced to two.
>Your target is at an adjacent spawn site.
>Check surrounding spawn sites.

Where I am is basically barren, but I've still caught a Snorlax, Bulbasaurs, Ivysaurs etc at a fast rate using this method.

Yo, this is Showderp! Where we make sure everything chiks out on Pokemon Showdowns ladder using Pokemon suggested by you; Anonymous!
If champs current team needs a chik up he'll call "new team" where the fastest of 6 anons to suggest Pokemon in time'll be able to see their mons on champs newest team. If champ has had enough of her chikered past she'll chik herself out by calling "new champ" where the fastest of trips to understandably claim'll become our newest champ. Don't understand? Lurking is something you should get off your chiklist.

Ferrothorn fans are also Ben 10 fans, due to what the Pokémon and TV show both share in common. Hear me out:

>Both use green and black as their main color schemes.
>Both feature ugly alien designs.
>Both aired on Cartoon Network together.
>Both fans are under the age of 18, and Generation V is secretly adored by /vp/.

Put it all together, and it just makes too much damn sense.

Will we get frustratingly hard as nails champion and bonus bosses like Steven in the future?
