I used to share a Gameboy with my older brother we also shared a copy of Pokemon leaf green and Pokemon Ruby. Since he was older it was his game so I could play it but never was able to save it. So I spent a few years playing the game he never touched but he wouldn't let me save. I played over and over and eventually was able to beat the game in a day and it was awesome I loved Pokemon and my dad surprised me and got me a DS and then diamond and pearl came out and it was awesome to finally play my own game, and I have never stopped playing. #thankyougamefreak

[@kryptothesuperdawg]

I did the same thing but it was with my cousin and since I was at my cousin house every other day I would always highjack his game and play but not save until I got Pokemon black and white and then I got all the other games and played each one.

I remember when I was a kid and got my very first Gameboy Color, it was the red version. 1st game I played was Pokemon Red. Then I got the Gameboy SP and Played Silver and Pokemon Silver was probably the last generation I played on a Nintendo Device and now in it's 8th Generation, I can finally justify getting a switch and playing again, ,because 1st the Switch is a way better console compared the device prior, and the timing is perfect for me as well.

No no no no, no, please!

Also, be aware that dozens of gen 1 Pokémon are entirely absent in this game, including iconic ones like Pidgey, Jigglypuff, Chansey, and even Dragonite.

I was not that good at socializing as a kid. I can't remember the exact year, I think it was in 1998 when I was able to play Pokémon. The game helped me get along with some of the kids at school, first the kid who played the same game, then branching out. Now that I think about it most of the friends I have are mostly people who play Pokemon and up to this day those people I played Pokémon with, I still interact with at a daily basis. So thank you Game Freak and Pokémon. I would like to thank you too dude, for making me remember those fond memories.

[@lowkeyobsessedngl]

same. the pokemon anime was new but I already knew half the pokemon in the game and I made a list. people tried to call me out on my 'bullshit' but I proved them wrong the next day by painstakingly screenshotting each pokemon from a gameboy emulator (no$gb is a lifesaver) and pasted them onto MSWord along with their names. should've seen the look on their faces when i brought that list to school. all 151 with a secret hidden MissingNo sprite and its name written in lighter font. the next day I made copies and sold them for P5 a pop. made bank that day.

Tbh the thing that really makes me want to play pokemon is the strategy involved and the story. This what drew me into ultra sun and moon. How the story line goes is one of the thing that I most are about. If the game has all mons but "meh" storyline then there's no point in getting the game cause you'll be playing the same past games but with a couple new Pokémon added in... I think more ppl should in to consideration what gf is actually tring to do. It is way harder than you think to come up with a storyline that will one want to play from start to finish...

You know , the fun fact is that I’m still crying because i don’t have a switch while I’m watching your whole channel and you got some special editions , I wish I was you

[@YoungMenace7]

Well I played the first 3 generations, after that, I never touched Pokemon again. I had to grow up I was told, and eventually I did. Or so I thought I did. One day I was cleaning my room when I stumbled upon my copy of Pokemon Silver. The joy of finding AA batteries that I took for granted as a kid. Popping those bad boys into my beat em up (pun intended) Gameboy advance. And hearing the music brought me back to my childhood. I was like man what have I been missing. I eventually found Pokemon FireRed as well. Even more nostalgia and the feels lol. I started researching what games had came out that I missed and what current generation we were in. This was 2 years ago btw. I eventually bought a N2DSXL and Pokemon moon. I didn't buy the other generations but I did try to watch let's plays about them. Then when USUM came out I got both games since there were the last to be made for the 3ds systems. A year later I bought a switch because they had announced Pokemon let's go games. And now?? Yeah buddy we getting that Pokemans shield. It's because of my old love of Pokemon that I got back into gaming in general. I was told to grow up but my inner child was alive and well. So sorry about the lengthy response but that's why I say #thankyougamefreak

I literally had to lie for a while and pretend like I knew what they were talking about. One day, pokemon Black and White the anime came on around the time I had to go to school. I wanted to watch it so badly to see what these pokemon actually looked like, I didn't have a phone so I couldn't tell. So I pretended to have a headache so I could stay and watch it. That episode I saw was so amazing and I finally could see those pokemon for the first time. Still to this day, tepig will allways be my favorite pokemon.

Alastair Hutton I loved it though people who don’t have very valid reasons. There are definitely some things I would change and considering its on the Switch the design could’ve been better. I’ve already beaten the game and now I’m just catching Pokemon in the Wild Area which is actually pretty addicting, especially raid battles. I like how the encounters are now and that you can pretty much avoid battling wild Pokemon if you just want to get to the next town. The way the Pokemon can be seen running around makes it feel very realistic to me.

Hey man, I LOVE the history the games gave. Gen 4 was my favorite, especially introducing new things to boost for battles and the world building showing the origins of the Pokemon world. I had followed the animé and quite enjoyed even the latest season. Still, I think you had been fair with your reactions to the issues the latest games have. I'm grateful for the previous games and their experiences, but I think we all just want Pokemon to be the best games they can be and that's why we just want them to do better that's all.

And I don't have any problems with the game as this is their 1st main series switch game so they are also being introduced to making switch games. And I play games for fun, not for graphics and I think no one should play pokemon for graphics they should play just for pokemon.

Yeah the game will be great.

[@Rhamnales]

@@krim7 yeah man. Been watching reviews and all seem to be positive. There are some leaks I've read and been disappointed with but I am at heart a pokemon fan.

I just wanted to tell you that my wife and I are huge fans of your channel and love all your videos. I just purchased the this switch lite for my main switch to use today and it’s amazing in person. And by your recommendation I also ordered a satisfye grip for it. Thank you for the discount code. Can’t wait to get it! Your awesome man. Your channel always brightens my day.

I have a limited edition Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee switch- and I'm generally not gentle on my electronics. Luckily I had saved some Amazon gift cards and got a screen protector, a clear casing (so the design still shows) and a storage case for it. Never is a bad investment if you got something limited edition!

[@justinherbst1620]

Since I was small i grew up with pokemon because of my sister. Even my earliest memories have to do with pokemon. My first own game was pokemon pearl. And I never stopped loving the franchise. And I probably will never stop loving it because it is such a big part of my childhood.

Before pokemon went on national TV in the uk, it was on the sky channel, we never had sky but had an old box from a friend a few months before pokemon red/blue came out. Only about 5-6 of us watched and knew what pokemon was and we loved that it was like our own litte thing that was so cool but noone else had a clue about. I dont mean that in a hipster way, we were so excited when finally it was on national tv and everyone was talking about it. When the games were announced I think we were all so excited. It was our lives for a year and the passion for the games never really left me. Pokemon will always be that little group of us discovering we all watched this obscure programme, and then witnessed and got to enjoy the huge impact it had on every kid our age.

[@satinsleeves]

I think you are grossly misrepresenting why everyone is mad/angry/sad/"negative" about this game. It's not just about people being mad you can't catch every Pokemon. There's tons wrong with the game besides that, but honestly, most people are upset about Game Freak's attitude towards fans. Lying, making up excuses, not addressing the Japanese fanbase about these issues AT ALL -- stuff like that. Pokemon is the highest grossing media franchise in history, is it so bad that people have some expectations to go along with that? We don't want the same game but with slightly new mechanics, we want innovation. Honestly, if Game Freak made something on the level of BOTW, but only had like 300 Pokemon in it, I don't think anyone would be mad. But as of now, they have absolutely no excuse in my eyes.

[@notscorchingsands9718]

Lying? Lol. Meanwhile many popular game series haven't changed and are still loved. Let's be honest most "fans" complaining, have been since Generation 5 and instead of moving on they just complain about everything cause they can't accept they don't like pokemon anymore. Pretty funny most comments are but some are very bad and i kinda hate being piled into that group. Everyone will get over it in a month anyway.

[@aruraven]

I remember winning pokemon red from a kids contest in the newspaper. My mom couldn't afford a GB for me so I had it in the box for months. It looked so cool, I still remember the feeling. And then on christmas day I got a GB pocket, the yellow one, and I enjoyed that game SO much. I chose Bulbasaur just because but my babysitter reset the game out of nowhere (this was like, space era technology for her at the time) and I picked up the charmander after. I wasn't sure what the game was saying half of the time but it was the greatest thing. It made my childhood a happy one. #thankyougamefreak

[@Trainer_Doggo]

Thank you Game Freak, you gave me an escape from my abusive home. Instead of listening to my parents fight and wondering when I was going to get hurt next, I could be transported to a magical world full of all of these amazing creatures. I had somewhere to go in my worst nights. Something to do on long car rides full of either awkward silence or brutal fights. Thank you game freak. I grew up on gen 5, playing Pokémon White 2 with Snivy, Sawsbuck, Zebstrika, Crobat, Lucario and Arcanine by my side ready to fight away all of my demons.

[@mArkoftheCovenant]

Stay positive, Wood! There are literally dozens of us who are still excited about the new Pokémon game. When I was young, I played Pokémon RBY on my GameBoy color in the car - back when you had to do gymnastics to see the screen to play. On a road trip, I was bent over in the passenger seat with my console in the floor to catch the one beam of light to illuminate my game... a few moments into this contortionist pose, and a turkey came crashing through the windshield - at about head level to me at the time. Without Pokémon, I would have been mortally wounded that day. #ThankYouGameFreak

My brother and I were close growing up but being that we’re a few years apart, we never had that many things in common. But pokemon was one of them. We both had a Nintendo DS with heart gold and soul silver and we would compete against each other. He would even help me beat certain gyms since he knew more about type weaknesses than I did. So thanks game freak for making games that brought my brother and I together even now with sword and shield :)

I started playing Pokemon at 14. It had just released in Japan and my best friend would draw pikachu on a surf board. We started playing it with an emulator and loved it. Wasn’t long before we both got the game and I met my all time fav pokemon psyduck and scyther. Later games added heracross and scizor. Even now I go on the hunt to find these guys. And my psyduck teddy now sits in my daughter to be a room.

Donnasoph It’s more about how game freak came up with excuses for it. They said they were creating new animations and stuff, but they didn’t. The games are still years behind in graphics. I’ve seen some leaks where I’d even go so far as to say they look TERRIBLE. Like the legendary Pokémon don’t even have turning animations. They just spin around. People feel like more care should be put into the series.
