I’ve been replaying though the Pokémon games for the first time since they came out.
I just finished Gold and started Emerald last week. I was really looking forward to it as I always hear great things about emerald.
But I have not been enjoying it. I feel like I’m constantly under leveled and even when I have a higher level than other Pokémon, I feel weaker.
The map has been a bit annoying going in circles for the first half of the game. I am at the 5th gym now, and decided to drop it and move to gen 4.
I also have not been happy with the team I built. It seems that the move sets I have are not really that good. I’m at level 20-30 and I’m just getting my first good moves for some of my team.
I think that’s the case, already in general 4 I like the Pokémon I’ve caught and I’m not even at the first gym yet.
I think I struggled with the Pokémon in gen 3 since they didn’t learn good moves until a higher level. Loyola’s doesn’t even learn a water move until like level 37 in that gen.
