Unova Region Review

Hello everybody! Sorry I have been absent for a while, I have been spending the past few days with my girlfriend and haven't even been near my computer. However I do have scheduled uploads for everyday this week but anyways onto the topic of this post.

The Unova region! Barely a few years old is a region that I wasn't sure I'd like or not but I did enjoy it. The Unova region was accompanied by Pokemon Black/White and Black2/White2 and design wise I thought it was good, the region is pretty much a circle similar to the more recent Kalos region. However I preferred it in the Black2/White2 games than the first games as you were able to travel on the opposite side of the region that was in the post game in Black/White.

Unova was the first region in the games to have both day and night cycles AND seasons which changed every month which I felt was a great addition to the games, it is small things like that which I enjoy the most.

The gyms in both sets of games were really great, I preferred the ones in the sequels more, mostly because I feel Cheren makes a good gym leader, and starting off in a town with a gym is a first ever.

Now on to the most important part about these posts! My favorite and least favorite Pokemon!

My favorite Pokemon from this region goes to Scraggy/Scrafty. When I first saw this Pokemon I thought it was really cool but never planned on catching one until I did. I named the one I caught 'Tetris' and I will forever name any Scraggys I catch Tetris because that is an amazing name I think. Unfortunately the only Scraggy I ever used had Shed Skin because I didn't know about Moxie until the Elite 4 in Black/White. Any Scraggys I catch in the future though are required to have Moxie because I've seen that ability in action and it is very amazing. I'm getting excited about using one against just thinking about it. I love how Scrafty looks like a hoodlum (actually there is a youtuber named HoodlumScrafty).

My least favorite Pokemon form Unova is a no brainer: Yamask/Cofagrigus. I used one in Black 2 because hey Yamask is a really cool Pokemon and the only ghost types I've used in my life are Drifloon and Rotom so why not? Nope, worst decision ever made in a Pokemon game on my part. I'm not sure if mine just sucked or if they are bad Pokemon overall. Speed was horribly slow and attack was raised...oh yeah that could be why. Still it was always bringing my team and I down. The only time I may ever use one again is in a nuzlocke If I have nothing else to use. I guess its fair to give Yamask and Cofagrigus a second chance. Not any time soon however.

Thank you for reading! I will not be doing a Kalos review because I have yet to beat X and I want to play through Y as well. So expect one in a few months! Thank you! Have a happy Thanksgiving if you celebrate! Good luck black Friday shoppers.
