To Conclude:
I really enjoyed this project! Pokemon Arena was only one of the two games I downloaded but definitely the one I was most interested in. I had heard a lot about the game but was too young to play when it was popular, so it was cool to finally be able to get a bit of a chance to do so. I enjoy how we were given so much freedom to pick something we were genuinely interested in to do, I honestly don’t think I would change anything about this project!
