The format of these posts is simple: let’s discuss a specific game or series!
Let’s discuss the Pokémon series. What is your favorite game in the series? What do you like about it? What doesn’t work for you? Are there similar games you like or even prefer to the original series? Feel free to share anything that comes up and react to other comments. Let’s get the conversation going!
If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

I went searching for Pokemon Red/Blue on the Nintendo Switch Online Gameboy app and all they had was the trading card version of the game. I played it for a few minutes but couldn’t really get into it. Is it nostalgia or was there something Im missing?
There is definitely a nostalgia factor, and I was into playing the TCG with the actual cards too, so that helps. It’s been a long time so I’m not sure if it would still hold up.
