Having
finished the story of Pokemon Sun (I still have to face the League) I
found myself thinking about how much of this series I just haven't
played. I've finished all other the 3DS games, played but not
completed most others and I've never played any of the Gen II or V
games at all. I also got talking to a friend who, unlike me, didn't
take a huge break from the series between Gen I and IV and I decided
I really wanted to try the “complete journey”, as it were.
So, on a
whim, I trawled the local charity shops and Amazon to plug the gaps
in my collection so I could do the “Grand Tour”, as I've decided
to think of it.
So, the
itinerary runs FireRed, HeartGold, Alpha Sapphire
(though, having completed that game, I might spring for Omega Ruby),
Platinum, White Version 1 and 2, and Pokemon
X. I also, rather naughtily, got a copy of the fan game Pokemon
Uranium from a friend, which I'll probably slot in between the DS
and 3DS games.
There's also
the matter of my player character. Given that I'm playing this as a
single epic journey I feel the need to have a single character
throughout it all, canon conflicts be damned, my own personal Ash
Ketchum.
Her name (I
always pick the female option) will be Drake. Hopefully she'll
develop a personality and training style over the course of her
journey.
She's
certainly going to develop a lot of contradictory family backstory.
