Even if the game were on sale I wouldn't recommend. There's no reason for me to be going to a pokemon kid school, It was bad enough with sun and moon, And that game doesn't sell for 25$. So many lousy designs. The lore of the towns are bland with nothing of value to make them memorable. If I said Excrutek city, Or Nimbasa city. People know the town. Same can't be said. Why? Because Nintendo created pokemon games for people with a 5 second attention spans. Which irony older pokemon games can be completed much faster than newer titles. Not because of battle animations, but long uncreative writing that most people won't ever sit down to play twice.
