Magic number 6

[Spirit]

So you can only carry 6 pokemon in Pokemon games. It works well, its the magic number and everything is fine.

But have you ever craved just one or two more slots so that you dont have to choose between your favourites?

Nah. It's a big enough party size to where you can have a wide range, but not big enough to be overwhelming. Imagine juggling the abilities and uses of 7 or 8 pokemon. That'd be insane. Only reason I'd want more slots would be when grinding my weak 'mon, so I don't have to go back to the PC quite as much.

I thought there was something about a Magic number 6, I am very disappointed

in truth I think you should only carry 1 pokemon

I would love the ability to experience share 100 Pokemon at one time.

But I think six is a good size for the parties. It works well, it's not too complex. I think anything more than that would start to make it be overly complicated. Even six is difficult to manage sometimes.

hence why I said 1. 1 is an easy number, and you don't get a box full of neglected pokemon
