So, I have Y version and it is AMAZING. Totally and completely in love with it! Certainly my favorite game so far. There is an incredible amount of things to do, and the graphics are utterly gorgeous. I'm impressed by how many Pokémon there are to catch all over everywhere. The social/internet aspects of the game are so effortless, too!

I have 13.5 hours in the game already and I'm currently on route 11, and my team is nowhere near set in stone (I need a Sylveon, among other things--though I just started running into Eevees so that won't be long), but right now it is:

Hedgington, F Skiddo, lv 30
Frillster, M Helioptile, lv 27
Peregrine, F Talonflame, lv 36
Adelaide, F Braixen, lv 34
(Needs a name), F Amaura, lv 26
Fiesta, F Hawlucha, lv 22

There are so many Pokémon I want to train, though, and not enough slots! Nooo. Well, eventually I'll get to training everything I want.

Release was a lot of fun! I went to my friend Nico's house in Sacramento and we went to the Walmart midnight release. It turns out he lives next to the Japanese grocery store, so we went there beforehand and got snacks. His girlfriend is really sweet, too.

On the way down to Sacramento, I went to TRU and discovered a wealth of Pokémon toys, so I bought a big Fennekin plush, small Fennekin and Chespin plush, and a Fennekin figure. Good thing there was a buy one, get 40% off the next one sale!

I'm impressed too with the sheer amount of Pokemon everywhere as well! And it's always takes me awhile to run into the same Pokemon more than once. (I learned the hard way when I accidentally fainted a Pancham and had to find another one. ;P)

I am still trying to think of my team. I usually go with Pokemon that are exclusive for that region but there are sooooo many that are available right now that I want too!

My only set ones are myFrogadier, Charmeleon and Pancham. No idea who else right now. Just caught an Eevee and I kind of want a Sylveon but I'm not sure. xD

Have you heard Pikachu's new game cry? Love it! <3

Yeah, it's amazing! I've gotten to the point where I've accepted that I can't find everything on each route right away, so I'll have to come back and catch whatever I missed later.

I hope you figure out what team you want to use! I decided to use all new Pokémon this generation, because why not? And I love a lot of the Gen VI Pokémon, so I have no lack of Pokémon to train!

Good luck with the rest of your team! I figured out my team for now, and they're all in their mid-40s to low-50s level-wise.

Yes, it's really cute! I'm not training a Pikachu for now, but I might train one later (though I have a shiny level 100 Pikachu I'm going to transfer at some point--I can't decide whether I want to evolve it or not!)

I didn't know TRU had multiple versions of the Fennekin plush. The only one I've seen is the 7" Tomy.

[pacificpikachu.livejournal.com]

Yep, there's a 14" version, too! It's quite cute. It was $32.99.

Let me know if you upload pics of the big Fennekin plush. I would like to see it.

Edit: never mind, someone on the comm posted a picture.

Is the jirachi file available still?

[pacificpikachu.livejournal.com]

Nope, that one is sold, sorry!
