Should I get Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl if I've not played the original Diamond and Pearl
For a bit of context, I have recently gotten back into Pokemon after literal years and want to get back into the games.
Problem is I haven't a Pokemon game since Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon (Yes its been that long.)
As such I'm a bit out of the loop regarding the newer games from Gen 8 and beyond. However I plan on getting a Switch and want to get a Pokemon game alongside it...problem is I don't know which one to get as every new game seems to be massively mixed on fanbase opinions.
I don't want to delve into something too different from the original games like Legends Arceus just yet and want to play something more in line with the older games more familiar structure...which brings me to Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.
I've heard a lot of mixed opinions on this game, which I recently learned is a remake of the original Diamond and Pearl games.
As someone who's never played the original Diamond and Pearl games, is BDSP a good game and a good starting point for getting into the newer games on Switch?
(Also, to my understanding FireRed and LeafGreen are also apparently available as ports on the Nintendo EShop? If true I'll definitely pick those up too as I've never played those either.)
