I play as a Nuzlocke, self imposed hard mode. Can only catch 1st Pokemon per route, can’t pass next gym leaders top levelled Pokemon, if your Pokemon faints it’s perma dead. It’s an actual real challenge.
Sometimes games also just don’t need to be a challenge, you can have fun doing easy shit. Shame the new games run like arse though.
I speed up in battles because I don’t need to wait for the bar to drop, the battle is planned and I only need one move so I just wanna spam it.
