With over 700 Pokemon to collect and train, and many Mega Stones to find that can be powered up, there is much to collect in the game.
Pro Simple character creation with different classes
There are a few different classes available at character creation, each one has it's own abilities that are different from the others. Creating one is quite simple, which makes for a fast way to get into the game and start playing.
Pro Gold Standard for roguelikes
The controls and replayability have been refined over the years. Whether the player chooses to play with Tiles (graphics) or console (ASCII) the game works well even when choosing online or offline play. Either way there is just enough interface to play the game.
Cons
Con Very reliant on HMs
Later Pokemon games rely less on HMs (moves that can be taught to Pokemon in order to advance the games story), which means more room to have powerful moves on your equipped Pokemon. Being heavily reliant on them in Omega Ruby means many Pokemon or at least on will have to use up their valuable move slots to have moves that are only really useful to get past obstacles in the game.
Con Have to fiddle with controls
Being that the game uses an emulated keyboard on screen it works best on tablet, though is not really the preferred method (but is the only one) since it takes up screen space.
