Worth saying that some moves are better in certain situations (e.g. aoes (usually being ranged) are nice for clearing bloodthirsty pyroars and other such wild zones), but everything sans trainers is like 10 mins of gameplay per rank. Oops!

biggest era of teambuilding expressiveness.
I tried using over-time effects once and it felt like I could have killed their team and extended family before the ticks actually did anything

each other to where you can find something really silly to make a weaker guy feel really cool. Where in za you've got like, fast melees and setup (GOOD), all other direct damage (OKAY), everything else (FEELS LIKE DYING AND GOING TO HELL). Options never felt so limited despite it being pokemon's--

Think the most underwhelming thing abt za is how any move that doesn't feel Good feels like, hopelessly awful. Best part of modern pokemon imo is how, even tho the easiest option as always is to stack 6 high bst guys w/ setup moves, the games have 30 years of bullshit interactions piled on top of--

They gave my favourite girl ever a silly mega with a good type in the same game that doesn't let it keep levitate I have never felt more conflicted

i think the funniest part of pokemon za is that it's kind of them grappling with the fact that they spent thirty years writing pokedex entries about how half of them will kill you instantly on sight

Wowwwwwww. Very, very, very sweet little game. With any classic RPG experience it’s fairly obvious that, in spite of its kind of baffling reputation, this game is quite easy! It never really lets go of your hand, not in the common Video Game colloquialism sense, but in how it’s always handing you juust enough niceties to make the journey generally very smooth, even when it isn’t – enemies aren’t that hard outside of specific identifiable lategame encounters, only *held* money is dropped on wipe, which is realistically never going to happen, and you’re always able to teleport to a magical fantasyland where you can heal for free and have access to all the game’s conveniences. Everything feels like it’s expressing that it’s just, like, a bunch of kids playing outside – being all very believable to them, but also never putting them in the way of genuine harm. Particularly love how the lategame is about deciding which encounters are worth it or not, and which aren’t – and just running from the latter; the difficulty of the game being deeply tied into running away from danger feels very apt. Game feels like an expression of love towards childhood and play, and some other things too. Lovely game :)

as much as i am probably going to fucking rip into za once i finally get through it and post my thoughts, i think it has convinced me more than anything that pokemon are my friends. was never really a follower pokemon believer before now but seeing how animated a lot of them are makes me so happy

i don't have the first idea on how to judge how good a beat em up is but that one has a girl in a giant mech playable character which means it's awesome

feel like i should play beat em ups. i dont know what any of them are or which ones are good but i played like twenty minutes of panzer bandit last week and had a very good time jumping around and pressing the attack button a lot until i got interrupted and then did something else instead
