You can always turn off Exp Share, that's what I've done to keep the challenge really.

In general I'm enjoying it, the DexNav is neat and the AreaNav useful, the new sneak mechanic I'd say is pretty cool, and wonder trading six random Pokemon and doing an online battle is still immensely fun. Sure, I'm only a couple hours in but it's still fun!


Wonder trade is definitely an awesome feature, although I am holding back on it because when I did it in X and Y I got a Gible and I ended up destorying everything. It seems like the Gym rematches are in the ArenaNav which is a huge sigh of relief since that was one of my favourite parts of Emerald.

Honestly this is my favorite 3DS game I've played since A Link Betwen Worlds. There were a few entertaining titles this year but none made me feel accomplished for playing them other than maybe Smash



XBOX ONE/Wii U/3DS/PC

Thanks for all the great memories!

the post game has as much content as HGSS or BW2?
this would the enough reason to buy the game.



I just completed the Delta Episode. The Delta Episode is reason enough to buy the game -- it's absolutely phenomenal and is everything Pokemon should be. An interesting story, with excellent music, good characters, and great cut-scenes. There's even a cute little teenage-like romance. Midway through it gets a little tedious with the constant bouncing around the region and all the battles but the beginning and ending are worth it.

Man, if this game had the Battle Frontier it'd be the best Pokemon game ever made. If they make Battle Frontier DLC then I hope another 'episode' is included -- maybe centered around another 3rd gen legendary like Jirachi?

The editing, camer angles, music, and timing in the ending cut-scene are something I never thought I'd see in a Pokemon game.

I found a video of just the music from the scene, so there are no spoilers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0GMPne5PrM
