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.

Good to know. I think I’ll go for a full new team next time, I usually pull from the same ~10 Pokémon.
It's always fun to switch it up, I like going for less obvious picks. Especially ones you can pick up early and build a narrative with. I tend to be sentimental like that, it's fun to build little stories for yourself. I guess I watched too much of the Pokémon anime as a kid.
I should do that for all the games. Go for picks I’ve never done before. I’ve definitely fallen into a rut, going for the same ones every time. I do the same in Dark Souls and Skyrim, always going for the same builds. Gotta force myself to try something new.
