Some of them are common sense though, water is good against fire and rock, fire is good against grass, steel, and ice types, electric good against flying and water, that’s like the only ones I remember. Oh ye I also remember psychic was effective for fighting types but like that’s all I remember lol

I played X and Y when they first introduced the fairy types but that new type along with the 3d-ness of the games nowadays made my experience of the game more stale imo, preferred the good stuff like B&W or heartgold
The cool one is the bug, fighting, psychic. Ghost, dark dynamic. Fighting is weak to psychic since using your mind is more powerful than brute force. Psychic is weak to bug,ghost and dark since these are all common phobias. Ghost is immune to fighting obviously since you cant hit ghosts, it is however weak to dark since without light ghosts cannot exist. Dark is weak to bug since bugs usually reside in the dark. Dark is also weak to fighting as fighting is usually associated with the 'hero,' and dark is usually evil so good prevails over evil. Pretty cool.

LMAO I never even thought of them these way when I played when I was younger, I just remember rote learning what element type of attack is more effective against another

No.

Looks like shit, graphics aren’t the same as Sword and Shield.

And the game could be piss easy (like the other recent titles) though the only nostalgia I got from playing that game was because of the difficulty.
Ye it could've been much better, people were calling for DP remakes for so long and what GameFreak did was disappointing, giving it to another company which probably didn't have a single experience of making Pokemon games for something that people were asking for so long is dumb and shows that they probably didn't give a crap about the DP remakes. I don't think Game Freak really has that skill but look at the graphic of Legendary Arceus (which no one asked for), why can't they just use it on the remakes?

But I don’t want a days work at the deli to go towards purchasing a game like this one.

Also, I can just emulate the new game my gs66 can handle it just hope I can bypass those cool anti piracy screens

and like Briliant Diamond? I would have called it Eternal Diamond and Infinite Pearl (relates to how it's the longest gen to get a remake from its release date)

I have to admit, I have the hots for Shuvi, and ever since No Game No Life Zero, I have been naming myself as '[Blank]' EVERYWHERE for 3 years now. So to see '[]' is VERY refreshing, and I just want to thank you for that.

You know what, I'm so happy, I'm going to reward everyone reading this with the name of my personal music playlist on YouTube.
Here you go:

It's called '"Songs of the world - [Blank]" and the thumbnail is art from 'disorder 6' the Japanese Visual-Novel that I want to play once I learn Japanese.

Rewrite, Muv Luv, Sharin no Kuni and G Senjou No Maou were all exceptional visual novels that showcased what the medium can achieve from a storytelling standpoint. I remember Sunrider also being pretty good but that's probably only because I played it as the games released.

Haven't found any good visual novel in recent years unfortunately. Summer Pockets was a huge disappointment.

Thanks for telling me the names! I'm a total nooby for visual novels currently. I hope you find good stories soon! (PS. What do you think of Danganronpa's visual novel, if you've played it?)

I've played most semi popular visual novels from the 2009-2017 era. Probably over 40 in total. I tried Danganropa but never really got into it.

I watched the first season of attack on titan episodically as it was airing. I haven't seen any of the subsequent ones. The last two anime i watched were Charlotte in 2018 and Arifureta in 2020. I've seemed to fall out of anime and deviated towards manga as I move further into my early 20s.

Been reading a lot of manga/manhwa lately.
