>No national dex in SwSh
Nah son, its this gen

I gotta agree with this.
I lost touch with ORAS personally (After loving X) and couldn't get into Sun at all.
But I didn't feel like it was irredeemable. This though? Definitely what's going to hurt the most.

SM/USM is top Pokemon kino.

It's imbearable cringe unless you're severely autistic.

Playing as a cute brown skinned little girl was the final frontier of Pokémon.
The only reason I got ultra sun was because of the cuteness factor of the female character option. And yeah I know the sun and moon had the same shit but I felt like US and UM did it better.

It wasn't in Gen 7, either. You could transfer your old Pokemon, but they don't show up in the dex at all and aren't required for completion.

Only gen 1 and 2 were actually good. Ever since then they are just releasing the same core game with more and more casual bullshit over and over again.

X/Y are still worse.

it was shit at x and y

sun and moon were a bit of an improvement from x and y but still equally as shit

This.

But they were still in the fucking game

That's not Gold/Silver though

no that was GS

>itt: [gen I like] was the high point of the series, [gen I don't like] was the beginning of the end of the series

3ds pokemon was a mistake

I really don't understand the x/y hate. The story was fucking idiotic but the core game was very good.
Is all the hate over some min-max competitive meta shit I don't understand?

Who are you quoting, newfag?

>This was the point of no return. The point where the series went to shit forever.
That distinction is reserved for the first "true" HD home console Pokemon games to be released on Nintendo's most powerful hardware yet.

No, the hate is all on the single player being easy as shit and no post game. X/Y were actually nice competitively, at least in the beginning.

Yeah I loved the forced cringey Lilly “cutscenes” where the character model reused the same animations and dumped fanfic tier exposition for 10 minutes as well

Oh user, at least you got a crisp and new Lillie model for each and every area.

literally everyone else in the thread, boomer

Gen 4=5>3>2>6>1>7>8

Not really, since XY was already worse. And Sword/Shield is a total nosedive even from SM/USUM. They could have kept things afloat if they'd at least kept all the Pokemon, but this is a totally new low they're going for.

From a competitive standpoint OR/AS was the tipping point the meta has been full of broken shit ever since thanks to power creep, cutting out some mons and allowing others to thrive is exactly what the meta needed in Sword/Shield its a shame that they didn't cut the game roster for that reason though and purely out of laziness.

>no Z with harder main-game and some actual post-game content
It hurts.

Fucking epic dude

Do I need to play both moon and ultramoon or is it a "3rd version for both versions" situation and I'll be fine with just ultra

no, this was the point of no return.

Just ultra is best

USUM barely counts as a third edition outside of a few postgame things.

X&Y are shit games but I can kinda give them a pass for having to make the 3D stuff from scratch.

ORAS is precisely where Pokemon went to shit with no chance of return.

ty user

holy shit bros... is that... CHARMANDER?!

>X&Y are shit games but I can kinda give them a pass for having to make the 3D stuff from scratch.
but they didn't. creatures inc. made all the 3d stuff for them. also, all of the pokemon's models (except for the new gen 6 pokemon, obviously) had already been made during gen 5 and used in other things like pokepark, the anime intro and pokedex 3d.
the real reason gen 6 was so shit is because normalfags rejected all the effort that went into gen 5. ever since then, game freak has just been giving normalfags the shallow nostalgia cash grabs they wanted.

This.

lmao

>no more replies to you
Satisfying
Will "who are you quoting" die as fast as NPC did?

Digievolutions in gen vi killed it for me, what where they thinking?
