A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Still Pokémon Soul Silver. Thoughts originally here on !pokemon@sopuli.xyz.

Just went and read your other post. Great read. I love HGSS, I know people sometimes complain about the level curve but to me those games were always the peak of the series. So much content, so much charm, just an absolute love letter to Gen 1 and 2, the dual region is still the coolest thing ever and the Pokewalker was a great little gadget. Though I still haven't gotten my flying or surfing Pikachu from it as those fuckers have like a 2% spawn rate and no pity system.

HGSS will forever be my favourite Pokemon game and probably my favourite handheld (DS/GameBoy/etc) game. Having the Pokemon follow you around, plus Johto is just my favourite region, and the music, it’s just such a great game.
