I am playing Pokemon Violet at the moment and it is a total bore. I have played the game so many times and I just want to run around catch Pokemon and battle.

I do not need another tutorial about what a Pokemon center is. Or a tutorial to tell me that I need to use a Pokeball to catch a Pokemon.

Can we get a “I’ve played this game 100 times” mode where it just saves the tutorials and lets us play the game?

    There are so many decent Pokemon clones out there that there’s honestly little reason to buy the new ones. From what I’ve seen they are a total bore fest and way too easy, I think people just need to accept they’re kids games and move on. I personally really enjoyed Monster Sanctuary. Even though it’s a very different game it gave me the same enjoyment of catching monsters and building a team.

      I’m not so certain there is a comparable title to Pokémon at it’s best. I want there to be, but it doesn’t exist yet.

        Yeah and even when Pokemon is at it’s worst it’s still got one big thing going for it that nobody else can have, and that’s the Pokemon.

      I don’t agree that there are clones that are close enough to what pokemon is. I have not really explored it, so I could be wrong.

        Digimon and SMT, while not Pokemon clones are monster-collector games that are far superior.

        edit: And for those that want something like Pokemon Legends just go play Craftopia or PalWorld. (craftopia’s a bit more like BOTW but it’s close enough).
