Apparently, I picked the right time to finally get into the franchise, with Platinum, a few years ago. Because I've been playing Emerald, from the previous generation, and you know what? It's a pain in the ass. No False Swipe to make capturing easier. No Lucky Egg item to boost XP gain. No consistent XP-farming area, for that matter.
In Platinum, I can go surf the seas of the end-game areas, and fight high-level Tentacruels and rake in the XP, but Emerald? Pfft. Levels vary from 6 to 36, at best, and they're Wingulls and Tentacools. Entirely too grindy.
I need to snag a couple of legendaries from Emerald, and then I technically won't need anything else from the G-3 games, so maybe then I can put them down..
