So I got a 3DS...

I was kind of mad, because I wasn't even into games anymore.  It was the same when I got Pokemon Diamond, I got a DS Lite just for Pokemon Diamond and did not even wring out any joy from it... initially that is.

But after playing for two hours and adding a couple of my friends, I felt a connection to the world, even if its something childish, I felt like a member of society.  People in society do these things.  People who play these things are part of society regardless.  Because people I know play these things, I feel like I am connected to them, because I am doing what they are doing.  And so I felt overwhelming connectedness, which lifted me out of darkness...

maybe for a little while.  But for now, Chesnaught bitchesss!!@

I nicknamed my main team after stand-up commedians I have watched on YouTube.  Amaura is Simon Amstell (Amstel, because of the character limit actually), Blasetoise is Louis C.K., Talonflame is Bo Burnham, and Chesnaught is Carlin.  I like the exp system better than Black and White's.  Though Black and White's leveling system basically evens out all Pokemon's levels allowing storage Pokemon to be in the rotation without having the hastle to level them up for a long time since they caught up in levels pretty easily because of the system, X and Y's feels like the same leveling up formula as the past games, however, the newExp. Share distributes exp to the entire party, allowing diverse rotations between storage and in the party.  I always switch my other two Pokemon to Pokemon that can evolve by leveling up so I don't waste time and exp points.
