Spreading the word about a game you pirated and enjoyed is "at worst an equal trade," Hakita says.

I actually bought ultrakill but now I have an even bigger respect for the chad that is Hakita

    In your case I wouldn’t recommend trumpets and water Emerald then, as it’s exploration-heavy - there’s huge routes, and often what you want is in a specific place. You’ll probably have a great time with Gen 4 instead, specially Platinum.

        They’re even more exploration-heavy than Emerald. Roughly, the earlier the game, the bigger the focus on exploration, as hardware limitations didn’t allow much storytelling.

        Also, I recommend playing their remakes instead of the original games; the originals are extremely buggy and have huge balance issues. (For example, there’s a shore in Red/Blue that you can use to catch Safari Zone mons. And Psychic mons are crazy overpowered - the only Ghosts in the region are partially Poison, there’s a lot of other Poison types, and since Gen1 was before the special split they got huge offensive and defensive capabilities.)
