What games should I legally acquire for it? I had the various DS/3DS Zelda's, most of the pokemans up to Black, Bravely Default, The World Ends With You (which i never completed because I was bad at fighting on two screens at once), and Contact (which I never completed because it was made by Suda51). I'm leaning towards steali getting some of the later pokemans because I 100%'d Cassette Beasts and I crave more creature collecting, but is there any other good stuff?
Legally, X/Y and USUM might still be somewhat affordable. I know they had reputations of being less popular, but over the pandemic all the used games largely skyrocketed.
The DS ones are only about a tenner each on aliexpress, but even Sun and Moon start around £18.
Damn, I'm sorry. The only thing I needed to complete my collection was B&W2 and those skyrocketed the second I had the money. The cheap DS era ones are likely fakes, but fakes run well enough. Just don't expect to transfer them up to Pokemon Home.
Unless you're talking about some kind of doghouse for pokemon I don't know what a pokemon home is, so I'm pretty sure I'm safe on that front. Besides, why would I buy the mainline series when they're also selling classics like Garbage Gold, Silver Sterling, and Tohoumon HeartGold?
It's paid storage for Pokemon. It's only really relevant if you're transfering mons between games as a challenge or you're attached to a particular one. I really should give some of those bootlegs a shot, but these days I rarely play. Maybe an hour or two every week is spent on video games.
Oof, I wouldn't make use of that even if it was unpaid. Forcing you to trade to get all the mons is one of the pokemon company's biggest sins, alongside making the starters after Gen IV all look fucking goofy, and Whitney the gym leader in gsc.
