Well, after playing this game I can say I'm definitely enjoying it, granted I do have a few issues with the game.
For starters (Heh) Handing us Riolu and Torchic were some nice choices considering the first gym leader- However Minior kinda flipped me off and merc'd them both comically easy with psychic attacks and looking back on Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, Torchic was the starter that had the most limitations (And likely still will once we go fight Whitney and her Milktanks Rock Type Rollout attack)- I always went with Mudkip because Water/Ground kinda clowned on a lot of the Gym Leaders. Plus considering we get TWO breedable Fire Type Pokemon in Braxien and Vulpix it makes Torchic feel kinda redundant- So unless we can eventually breed our own Lucario and Blaziken (Both of mine were Female when I got them, coincidence?) it feel like I gotta bench them because the Breedable Pokemon are just better for the situation.
Second is this difficulty- I know you said the game would start a little difficult last time I commented, but my god the amount of times the levels of trainers JUMPED is intimidating- One minute I'm fighting level 27-29 opponents the next they're level 36. Yeesh. Plus something I want to say about the Shadow Attacks- You have comically overpowered them. In Pokemon Colosseum and Gale of Darkness, Shadow Moves were Super Effective against everything, but they also had a rather low base power so they hit like any other attack- This game feels like 'If you aren't faster than the Shadow Pokemon and don't have a Null Berry, prepare to die.'
Granted this is circumvented by the Breeding Center Battles, thank you by the way for speeding up the grind, though I will admit they do feel kinda limited when I've gotta level up a level 29 Pokemon and my only options are Level 5, 10, and 15 opponents.
Third, and this one is just a personal gripe, but the breeded Eevee can only evolve into Vaporeon, which is nice and all but Umbreon just has a special place in my heart- Though I do understand, that is a grand total on 8 Eeveelutions you would have to draw, thats asking a lot.
Fourth, again just a nitpick that you could probably fix with a bit of personal practice, but the custom sprites seem jarringly large in battle- Bea, your breeded Pokemon- Not Marowak though, she actually looks alright- It's not a problem, just felt the need to share.
Lastly, kinda wish there was more than one spot do access the D/P/PL mining segments, I'm still trying to get a Fire Stone to evolve my Vulpix.
Other than that I do enjoy the game, can't wait to see more Pokemon, more girls, and hopefully more conveniences.
