Why Do We Keep Replaying the Same Pokémon Games? | PUCL 765

from PUCL: A Pokemon Podcast Hosted by Thaddeus Asel

Why can we replay some Pokémon games over and over again, while others never seem to call us back? This week on PUCL, Thatch is joined by R. Sigma and Clod 9 to figure out what actually makes a Pokémon game replayable. Is it the Pokémon available to build your team? The pacing? Exploration? Difficulty? Story? Postgame? Or are we all just hopelessly nostalgic for the games we grew up with?
