What keeps you interested in Pokémon? - NintendoPals.net Nintendo Friend Codes Forum

Title says all, really. I was wondering, what makes Pokémon so appealing to you? For me, it's a) the collectables (Almost 500 Pokémon?!?) and the minigames (underground is brilliant). What about you?

EDIT: Yes, I searched before I posted this. My apologies if this thread has been posted before.

The Battles of course. Making new strategies and your opponent acting like this:

but other than that, the main quest gets my vote. Especially since HG/SS is comming out.

They all get my attention except making poffins where cause i either overflow or burn it, my highst level for poffins is 40

which is poor to me and also the contest is very boring i guess i know you need for black card but its too complicated kinda liked the 3rd generation contest better(my opinion)

The reason I'm still glued to Pokemon is hunting for Shiny Pokemon, EV training/LevelGrinding, and going to special events. With my Pokeradar, I've caught 4 species of Shiny Pokemon. I have been to a Gamestop Deoxys Event and got a special Ho-Oh from Colosseum.

Level grinding for me.

I like to get my Pokes all the way up to the nineties for no particular reason.

The battling, online and training is what keeps me playing, I do nothing but train and battle.

Abyss · 08-04-2009, 12:09 PM

I used to like it cause it was just fun and I enjoyed playing it. But now that I lost all my Pokemon games, and the fact I'm just lazy and don't feel like leveling them all up and training them and stuff, so I lost interest in it.

So I voted for "Main Quest" since that's all I really did.
