I'll start
ITT: games where a series peaked
Oh whoops my bad. I accidentally used the wrong OP image.
Imagine being enough of a mouthbreather manchild to have played every major fucking pokemon game enough to make a statement with confidence about which one is best. How fucking sad and embarrassing is that.
Finally! Second post best post. How the fuck did the first post get it wrong?
>No phys/spec split
How many times do we have to tell you old man
>game was more balanced before the split. Gen 4 was full of rampant powercreep
there has not been a single good sonic game since
What about Mania? That was pretty good
>need to beat the game to unlock hard mode
Pass.
BW2 is peak Pokemon, user.
Fpbp
>Hurr
Pre-split was balanced, removing dragon special exclusive was a mistake
>Scarf Garchomp outrage
>Win
Genuinely the first time an Ace Attorney game had villains that pissed me off and a villain who's voice line made me wanna shrivel up and die from hearing it the first time.
>Play White 2
>Beat the game to unlock Easy mode
>turns out easy mode is harder than hard mode as the pokemon give out less EXP
It still lowers the average levels though, so I can't imagine the disadvantage being that much. Challenge mode Elite Four even on the first playthrough is rough as fuck, and a fair deal of trainers get an additional Pokemon.
BW2 > Platinum > HGSS = Emerald
All the other games have much more significant flaws
