I know, i'm extremely late to this game, seeing as how everyone is phasing into Sun/Moon D; Also, as a veteran of the original series, I've always been a little put off by the lazy addition of 500+ pokemon, releasing them in batches as a 'new' game. I have to say, if you're a fan of Pokemon, but like me, have grown tired of the same game with an updated cartridge and handheld, buy. this. game.
