Hello faggots i just bought a used New3DS and got Alpha Sapphire and Y with it, i also bought Sun.
I haven't played a Pokémon game since Gen 3, which one should i start with?
I kind of want to start with Sun since that's what everyone else seems to be playing, but at the same time i'm worried that it will will be hard to go back to the older games after having played the newer one.
I think i'd really enjoy Alpha Sapphire since those Gen 3 games were my favorite, but i think i might just feel rushed when playing to so i can move onto Sun.
What should i do?
Don't play Y, you'll regret it. Start with Alpha Sapphire and then move onto Sun.
Only play Y if you loved both Alpha Sapphire and Sun and feel like you need more Pokemon in your life.

You should kill yourself dumb frogposter.
>>31300848
That seems like a good plan, i feel like it would be really nostalgic and fun to go back to Hoenn.
>>31300867
thank u for ur imput maybe i will
Also will Gen 8 be on the New3DS or on that new nintendo switch shit?
I feel like i've been cucked if Sun / Moon are the last games on the 3DS.
You should stop posting frogs.
>>31301003
u better watch out and answer my questions instead cuckboi
>>31300848
^Don't listen to this fag OP
ORAS are some of the WORST games in the series
XY offers a brand new region and brand new Pokemon to experience and you will ever only have a once of a lifetime of having that feeling
XY are the best Gen 6 games
>>31301033
Now you are making me confused, are OR/AS a lot worse than the original Ruby / Sapphire?
I think i'd enjoy it simply because of the nostalgia i have for those games.
I've heard very mixed things about X/Y, some people say they are great, others say they are the worst ones.
Would it be hard to go back to the Gen 6 games if i played Sun / Moon first?
>>31301051
ORAS literally fixed nothing wrong from RS
Not only did they skip out on any Emerald features, the region itself felt very monotonous and restricted. Also very rigid and square which made it feel very unnatural, especially with it being a 3D 3DS game
Don't get me wrong OP. I loved RS as a kid, but playing ORAS highlighted everything wrong with Gen 3 and made me realize they were just not that great of games.
A lot of people despised XY sure, but for very absurd reasons.
Having the least amount of new Pokemon. It supposedly being "easy", Pokemon has never been hard. The "rivals", who were downplayed by Silver lovers
>Would it be hard to go back to the Gen 6 games if i played Sun / Moon first?
Nope. I can honestly still play XY even now just fine. The slight downgrade of graphics might be a slight issue at first, but I've gotten used to it after going back to Gen 6 after playing SM
Just pick one and play it hombre
Don't ask vp for advice on which games are good, these fuckers can't decide shit
>>31301094
Casualfags don't care anon
>>31301051
Hack your 3ds if you can for free everything
>>31301094
Well, even if it's not great i still want to give it a try.
Just for some nostalgia.
>>31301105
Yeah i think i'd be able to enjoy any of these 3 games, I was just wondering if one of them would be a better starting point.
>>31301108
Yes i am a casualfag so hacking my 3DS seems like scary stuff, can you actually get the latest games for free without any issues?
also daily reminder to stay hydrated
>>31301105
This. your not gonna get a clear answer so just play whatever you want
>>31301164
but that's the problem, i can't decide.
>>31301094
Literally do not listen to this fag.
"ORAS IS TERIBLE!!!" is just a meme because peope wanted the Battle Frontier.
Play Y first to get used/introduced to new shit like Mega Evolution and the Fairy type.
Then Alpha Sapphire for some nostalgia.
Then Sun for the brand new experience.
>>31301173
just roll for it
1+2=XY 3+4=ORAS 5+6=SM
>>31301161
Well on /vg/ or YouTube get some al9h or Luma guide
Either infinite money or you lost 300
>>31301173
Just start off with xy or this >>31301187 if you really can't decide
>>31301180
This.
Also, it will be kinda hard getting used to the old games if you play Sun first, you'll have to go back to a movement grid / chibi overworld, it's kinda weird.
>>31300781
Don't call me a faggot you stupid toadposting prick.
>>31301180
I also think this might be a good idea since i have all 3 games already, i may as well play them.
Would i miss out on any cool events / online stuff in Sun if i take my time with Y / AS ?
>>31301187
confuse
>>31301202
that seems a bit too spooky for me right now, maybe later when i'm a bit more used to the 3DS.
>>31301248

>>31301214
>>31301219
This is what i'm leaning towards right now, Y first, then Alpha Sapphire and then i'll move on to Sun.
If Y sucks i can just stop playing it and try the others instead.
>>31301227
what u gonna do about it cuckboi
>>31301275
Give me your fucking address.
>>31301287
no
>>31301248
>Would i miss out on any cool events / online stuff in Sun if i take my time with Y / AS ?
The Munchlax event ends on Wednesday, I think. It comes equiped with a Snorlium-Z, the Z-Crystal that enables Snorlax to do its exclusive Z-Move (this specific Z-Crystal is not found in-game).
Should be easy to trade for it later, though. I can give you mine if you want.
>>31301291
I'm going to wrap my ballsack around your lips when I find you. I'm so fucking sick of frogposting twats. I just want quality discussion about my Pokeymon games, not some stupid fucking faggot meme frog in my face every five seconds. Is that really so much to ask? God damn you're such a shithead, kill yourself.
>>31301295
I don't fully understand what Z-crystals are but i think i can live without it, thank you for your kind offer anyway.
Will there be more events like this?
>>31301321
this is my thread cuckboi u better watch out i can post as many frogs as i want
>>31301338
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZPL60tSuQw
excuse the 360p
>people unironically avatarfag with deformed cartoon frogs
>>31301353
That looks pretty retarded, will i be unable to get that move if i don't get it before Wednesday or will they add it in the future? Is there a lot of other time limited / unobtainable things?
I'm not used to all these events and free pokémon.
>>31301385
no bully
>>31301338
Enjoy it while you can. You're a dead fucking froglet, kiddo. I'll track you down. I'll make you pay for what you've done to the boards I love. I'll drag your green body through the forums. I'll kickstart a revolution, an uprising against all the cunt frogshitters on the internet. The world will run red with frog blood. And when it's all over, I will rejoice with my fellow revolutionaries.
From this day on, Pepe the Frog is dead.
>>31301401
can u repeat that
>>31301338
Z-Crystals enable you to use a super-powered move once per battle, there is one for each type + some that are species exclusive.
Yes, there will be more events, there are still a few other unreleased Z-Crystals and one unreleaed Pokémon.
>>31301397
This is the only event happening in Sun right now, there will be many others.
The Magearna (one of the mythicals) event is unlimited, you just have to scan a QR Code that is easily found, but you have to become champion first.
>>31301419
Fuck you.
>>31301439
So do you think i should play Sun first as to not miss out on any of these events, or are they not that important?
>>31301444
no hablo ingles
>>31301460
Not that important, really.
Like I said, only this Munchlax is happening right now, and unless you are a completionist or really like Snorlax, you wouldn't care.
And the Magearna one is unlimited, you can do it whenever you want.
I say you should stick to Y > AS > Sun
>>31301479
Snorlax is a pretty cool guy and i like pancakes but i think I'll be ok without that move, i still don't like the idea of limited time / unobtainable items in a (mostly) single player game.
It just makes me feel stressed because i am autismo. (u can tell by the frogs)
It's not hard desu, just play them in release order
>>31301510
I just got mine yesterday, tell me your FC and we can add eachother so I can give it to you later, when you're finally playing Sun.
You can contact me via e-mail about it when you get to it.
>>31300781
Anon just pirate all of them.
>>31301202
>YouTube get some al9h or Luma guide
>Video guide
>People still haven't learned from what happened a while ago.
https://3ds.guide/
>>31301512
Yeah that seems to be what most people think,
I'll probably end up doing that.
>>31301544
My 3DS is still down at the post office but I'm gonna get it tomorrow, so i don't have a friend code yet.
>>31301551
I have the games already, i got two with the 3DS i bought and i ordered Sun at the same time.
>>31301594
explain pls
>>31300781
Y is better than both. I would go Y > AS > Sun
If i want to play sun and moon do i have to have the new 3ds or does it play on the older ones?
>>31301900
you can play on both, by the o3DS lags a lot more while the n3DS only lags in some areas such as the Pokemon Snap ripoff.
>>31302590
well i would be buying a 3ds to play, is the performance gain worth spending the extra money on the n3DS versus a used older model?
>>31302729
if you can stomach the constant slowdown and/or can't find a n3DS for cheap, i'd just buy a used older model. the n3DS (XL) are sold out in most stores now and people are scalping the shit outta them, especially because of that fact and that all 3DS firmwares are now CFW compatable.
>>31302793
Well shit i see what you mean with the scalping, thanks friendo.
>>31302793
Sometimes in Sun/Moon the text box will take a while to appear when I'm trying to run from a battle. Is that because of FPS/slowdown?
>>31305321
I believe that has to do with the engine itself as it has to let certain animations finish before the next commands start.
