So close to a five star game, but it just missed the cut

Pokemon Y was a fun game and I enjoyed playing it. There are just a couple of reasons why I did not give it a 5 start rating.

Pros:

  1. The 3D world is cool, and I liked it a lot.
  2. The new Pokemon are cool
  3. Trainer fights are fun
  4. There are a lot of places to find/fight wild Pokemon
  5. The story was interesting
  6. The Mega Evolution was cool

Cons:

  1. The other trainers that you are paired with, are super annoying
  2. There needs to be a feature to turn off the tutorial, because being a Pokemon player, I don't need to learn everything
  3. The other parts of the story, where is tries to make a "cute relationship" with the girl trainer was stupid and just wasted my time
