Dont tell me you have this reddit way of thinking

4 was shit, but HG/SS is good
4th Gen is a slog to play both literally and figuratively. What were they thinking with the snow and mud tile mechanics?

Yeah it is

Hau is a legitimately interesting rival, honestly one of the best in the series.

His character experiments with the idea of what you winning every time would actually feel like to an optimist friend of yours. As the game progresses, you see him grow as a person - he begins to doubt himself when he constantly loses to you, but eventually comes to terms with those losses and uses them as a driving force to motivate his will to get stronger.

Blue on the other hand is a worthless stock rival, literally just the textbook definition of someone you are rivals with. Silver was at least mildly interesting though with the whole Crobat thing and the Rocket connections.

Top kek user, i almost took you seriously

Meanwhile all the other gens don't have as many Pokemon I dislike but is okay to have shit if the rest is good

Blue was a mega cunt but thats why he was great. These new rivals being all friendly and shit is lame.

Tell me all the Gen 8 designs you don’t like

Yeah well that’s what I meant and I’m a mature adult so I can admit that I made a mistake and typed the wrong number so there

Yes and no. He served his job as a rival reasonably well, but as a character he's extremely simple. Story wasn't a focus of RBY across the board though so it's not that he's bad or anything. RBYs story and characters are very much about function over being an interesting story.

>battle frontier
>Yellow and Hgss
>Kanto,Johto,Hoenn,Sinnoh

He's obnoxious and stupid. More to the point he's boring as a rival. There's no fun in beating up someone who's a total loser. Blue is much more challenging and hence, more fun to win against. Hau just feels like a clingy hanger on who doesn't know when to give up, and not an equal

Why can't we have a rival that changes his team on the type of pokemon you have?
His team will always have a type advantage in every battle.

Let's face it, you can only play Pokémon for the first time only once in your life. And a lot of the difficulty that stemmed from it was that first time.

Battle Facilities are easy now, especially with how strong pokemon are. If you can't get gold in battle tree by abusing megamence then you're beyond help

zoomer, everything after gen 3 is nu-pokemon. gen 3 just barely qualifies as classic. that being said, the games up to b/w2 were good and fun even though they lacked the classic pokemon charm. x and y was bad, sun and moon was atrocious. my expectations couldn't be any lower for sword and shield, but I guess me and the other jaded boomer autists in this thread are not the demographic they are aiming for...

The amount of features, content and tangible evidence of effort dropped dramatically once the series switched to 3D. Pokemon was never exactly high art but it's straight up kusoge on the 3DS. And the drop in quality being met by an increase in sales sealed the series fate as the powers that be learned effort wasn't a prerequisite for profit. So instead of the slow crawlback to DS quality over the 3DS' lifespan as Gamefreak gains it's bearings on 3D we were all hoping for the series has just descended into shamelessness.

None of this is true and een worse is that Gen 3 is pre-physical split. So it's automatic garbage.

I can post half the gym leaders for the other regions and make them look bad too :^)

At least they didn't bother you with their retarded drama

I could raise you sinnoh not having a fire type unless you choose chimchar, but instead I'll agree with you and your image. I mean hgss as a whole, all 16 gym leaders get better teams during their rematches. Plus the game has a lot of neat features like the radio and walking Pokemon. They crammed a ton of things into it that future games seem lacking in comparison. I tried getting into platinum, hell I even tried romhacks, but I could never see what people see on it. We're all fucked in the end, nigga. Series is dead anyways.

Hilbert and Nate are shit in the games and Hilbert's only sort of good in the manga (rip)

>I cannot stress how gen 3's legendaries are so much infinitely better than the massive pile of dog crap that was gen 5's legendaries
Nah. Kyrogre is good and all, but he keeps getting replaced as the legendary of the sea. Also if it weren't for the Team Aqua/Magma mess in the story, they would be better. Rayquaza is ok, I guess, but all he does is come down from the sky and tell the box legendary's to fuck off. That's it. In Gen 5 the box legendaries are much better, as they aren't used for retarded reasons in the story.
>Also brendan/may are much better than the gen 5 protags

Nah, there's a reason why so many people compare 3 and 1. One of the reasons is because it's the most linear adventure in the series. And two, the gym leaders are boring as hell In gens 1 and 3 (infact throw in 2) in gen 5 at least in BW they are part of the story and don't just stay in their town. They grow with you, and in the finale when they come and rescue you from the sages was Kino.
>pretty bad and by far the weakest box legends
Hard disagree. Aside from Giritina, Reshiram and Zekrom are the best box legendaries because just like Giritina, the story carries them. Unlike gen 3, however.

It's not a bad thing but it'd be better if the leaders weren't garbage, in fact the only reason I could think of as to why someone wouldn't think they're garbage is, as you said, the waifu leaders

So is your argument that they used reshiram/zekrom in tihe story or they didn't? Design wise (which is how you should judge pokemon) they're definitely the weakest legends, and while you can ignore them in this argument if you want there's the entire pantheon of garbage secondary legends. RSE's story wasn't phenomenal or anything but it's honestly one of the better ones for pokemon (which again, isn't much) since they aren't evil, just incredibly and insanely stupid.

>I don't care but I care
Ok

You will only benefits the same shits we have now

>it's why we have these hideously linear stories and shitty hanger on fucks for rivals who won't leave you alone to breathe.
This. Fuck Hoenn.

Again, Gen V didn't "kill" your monster collecting game for children, ORAS did because it catered to its main audience(Kids who play on tablets)
>Design wise (which is how you should judge pokemon) they're definitely the weakest legends, and while you can ignore them in this argument if you want there's the entire pantheon of garbage secondary legends
Personally, I like the simplistic designs of the legendaries in BW. I don't like over designed "digimon" type Pokemon designs that much.
>RSE's story wasn't phenomenal or anything but it's honestly one of the better ones for pokemon (which again, isn't much) since they aren't evil, just incredibly and insanely stupid.
I guess we can agree on this. RSE story was goofy as hell, and I probably shouldn't take it too serious. That's not the point I was making.

>You will only benefits the same shits we have now
That's not a problem with the Split, that's a problem with GF.

Some Pokemon were downright unusable in Gen 3 and needed the physical/special split. Gyarados was abysmal since he had no good STAB moves, and it makes no sense that ghost type uses physical attack

ORAS didn't kill shit, when ORAS got here Pokemon was already dead, does XY looks alive to you? BW killed the series with it's retarded ideas

What box legends do you think are overdesigned?

You seem mad as hell, for no apparent reason. BW didn't kill anything, infact more people are talking about the Gen V games, and how it was the best and last of the Pokkie games. And I don't blame them. Gamefreak went all out with their creativity for this gen, and it shows. If you don't like what they brought, hey that's on you but majority of people are coming around to it. So it's really silly how you say it "killed" Pokkie.

>Masuda had everything up till DP planned out.
Explains why BW was such a piece of shit

How fucking dare you pretend your loathsome abortion of a game isn't responsible. Gen V had three fucking rivals, two of which were utterly superfluous stalkers. You couldn't enter a single town without either of those fucking cunts dragging you along to meet the character of that section, the same approach that was reused in later gens. So yes, Gen V did in fact kill pokemon

For starters I think the box legendaries in BW2 look weird as hell.
>Inb4 aren't you defending BW?
Yes BW, not BW2. I also think the box legendaries in Sword Shield look off putting as well.

Pokemon never changed. It will never change.

>No, they hate Gen 6, and they're starting to hate 7 and 8 right now.
You're completely delusional and/or are basing your opinion solely on Yea Forums shitposting.
gen 8 is arguably the only one that's getting (rather rightfully) hated because of the nat dex stuff

Those gen 1 designs are lazy and ugly. Not to mention, Rhydon is recycled at least 3 times in gen 1.
You have to be blind to think only one gen has bad designs.

No, nice reading comprehension
Subjective. I personally don't mind the ice cream mins, as it gives them quirkiness. I don't like it when people bash on Gen B's design when gen I had a pile of purple kum, a pokeball with a face etc.

They're both one and the same.To partake of the Pokemon is to partake of the onions.

Pokemon then:
>braindead, serviceable barebones RPG with addictive monster collection gimmick
Pokemon now:
>braindead, serviceable barebones RPG with addictive monster collection gimmick

Only important difference is the shitty monster design.
>hurr jynx
Yeah except now everything looks like jynx

>You're completely delusional
Nope. You can go on any video game forum (including Twitter) (Not /vp/ and Yea Forums) And ask what's the work generation. Majority of the Pokemon fanbase HATES 6 with a burning passion because it's the Gen that simplified an already simple franchise.

The word filter on this post just further proves the point.

I wasn't the one saying that gen 5 is the only one with bad designs, but it definitely has the most bad design out of the series.
Most of the new cross-gen evos in 4 were bad and for gen 8 we have shit like obstagoon
I don't think there's a single bad design in gen 1, and in gen 2 I think the only bad one is stantler because its butt/tail looks retarded
I don't think there's a single bad design in gens 3 or 6 either, but I suppose I could be forgetting them.

The only bad cross gen was Rhyperior and Magmortar.

Oh fuck you're right my bad.

Gen 5 also has some of the best designs in the series. Reuniclus is brilliant in every aspect, Braviary's level of detail is on par with gen 1 birds, every bug is fantastic, Chandelure, Eelektross, Ferrothorn, the list goes on. Gen 4 has much fewer good designs.

Yes. Most of the "KANTOOOO" faggots ignore the fact that it's Gen I (and a to a lesser extent, Gen II) that makes most of the money, that everyone likes and remembers, and provided the framework for whatever the flavor-of-the-month region is, along with their ugly starters and increasingly bad designs. The "Gen I is buggy" meme only came because people started picking apart the code to see what the broken numbers were.

>middle form is absolutely retarded

fucking hate him and prinplup

>Gen 5 also has some of the best designs in the series.
I didn't say it didn't, did I? It does have some of the best designs in the series, but because they wanted to push the narrative of it being "the new gen 1" or something they scraped the bottom of the barrel to pad it out with some complete garbage.
Whimsicott is really good too.

I like that a lot more than its evolution. Admittedly I don't like it very much.

If Ditto is Gendo, who is the rest of the cast?

>being a genwunner and not a based Johtochad

You’ll never live up to the Gold Standard

This. What the hell were they thinking. I can't replay emerald normally now. Not to mention dragon was special, yet most dragon types were physical based. Wow.

Fuck off faggots. Gen 4 is eons better than trash heaps that are 5, 6, 7 and 8

Your chart is wrong

I hate faggots who try to bring up shit like lighting or shading when talking about Pokémon designs
Who the fuck cares about the lighting or shading or whatever of official art of Pokémon? They’re all just shitty 3D models with no dynamic lighting or anything aside from the Day/Night cycle in game anyways

Kanto regions was even more boring. Johto gyms had character but shit mons, Kanto was a boring retread.

5 is all of 4's traits cranked up to the extreme.
>1 weather and that snowman? Enjoy 3 three now.
>Sand did chip damage at most? Have a sweeper.
>Kanto 'mons getting evolutions? Everything has new abilities now.
>Stealth rocks? Ferrothorn's spikes.
>Setup 'mons? Shell Smash.
>Evil leader has a god complex? Now they're lead by someone they call king.
>Legendaries? Pssssh, we got loads of those.
>Oh but we've changed the map to a circle though and that magically makes you mad.

You’re no chad, you’re Kanto’s dickholder.

Chad also has:
>rivals are assholes and criminals

Kanto’s MY dickholder, bitch. Johto improved and expanded upon everything in Gen 1, and still had enough time to bring back the entirety of Kanto for you faggots too. It was Gen 1: the sequel and it’s better in every way

>Johto improved and expanded upon everything in Gen 1,
>literally level curved and ruined its gym leaders for Kanto’s sake
>games are only known for having KANTO as postgame
LMAO

I hope next gen rivals become lovers and the outcomes of the battles determine who's on top. And which Pokemon join in. It would be cool to fight as a doubles team with them.

but which pokemon would you fuck

johto is the most boring region in the whole series and is carried hard as fuck by kanto which was barebones as fuck. I have a hard time believing people still like it outside of nostalgia or romhacks

>Gen 1’s rival was an asshole childhood friend, Gen 2’s was a criminal and thief that’s the son of Giovanni and hates your guts Vegeta style
>Gen 1 had Team Rocket as a bunch of goons and Giovanni, Gen 2 has a hot MILF, a bishie guy, a master of disguise, and Giovanni himself (thanks to time travel)
>Gen 2 added the day/night cycle, giving more variety to encounters and a more dynamic world
>Gen 2 gave several evolutions to deliver Pokémon in need of it, such as Onix and Seadra
>Gen 1 heavily favored Psychic types, Gen 2 fixed the glitches that led to their dominance and added 2 cool new types to combat them too
>Gen 2 let you fight Red and beat his pussy ass on the top of mount fucking Everest, proving that Gen 2 > Gen 1
>Gen 1 had Barney the dinosaur, Gen 2 had Godzilla

This one.

At least Johto has a postgame lol
Kanto has one dungeon and that’s it

>It was Gen 1: the sequel and it’s better in every way
What's sad is that's all Johto will ever be. The sequel to Kanto while Hoenn is Hoenn and Sinnoh is Sinnoh.

>>Gen 2 let you fight Red and beat his pussy ass on the top of mount fucking Everest, proving that Gen 2 > Gen 1
If that's your argument then every gen is better than the previous since you get to fight previous characters

>At least Johto has a postgame lol
And it made Johto a very barren region by the end.

Oh not to mention, you can rebattle trainers in Gen 2 without using glitches, lots of moves aren’t glitched like Focus Energy, And the strongest bug move isn’t Twinneedle

Red has never been canonically as strong in any of those games as he was in Gen 2
Gold is the strongest trainer

So just how bad are Sword/Shield gonna be?

>Red has never been canonically as strong in any of those games
by what metric? pokemon level?

Rockets in gen 2 were forgettable as fuck and absolutely pathetic, user. On top of pic related, the milf had 3 level 32s that while actually had comparative diversity were weak as fuck as well, and the bishi only had one single golbat at level 36.

>Oh not to mention, you can rebattle trainers in Gen 2 without using glitches,
The phone rematches sucked ass and didn't get good until Gen 3 blessed ups with the Vs. Seeker.

Very, 6 was flat out unfinished and 7 leaned too heavily on Yokai Watch.
Pokemon's future is doomed to bad graphics, poor framerates, shrunken down 'mons, and a fanbase that has yet to develop taste better than fast food.

Kanto is full of shitmons with shitty typings
>2 bug/poisons, 2 bug/flying, 1 pure bug, 1 bug/grass (all shit)
1 ghost/poison (why)
>3 pure psychics, 1 water/psychic, 1 ice/psychic (too many pures)
>4 pure fightings, 1 water/fighting (why)
>3 grass/poisons, 1 pure grass (awful)
>1 water/flying, 1 water/ice, 1 water/psychic, 2 pure waters, 2 water/rock, 1 water/fighting, whatever Seadra is (acceptable)
>3 pure fire, 2 fire/flying (shit)
>2 ground/rock, 2 ground/poison, 1 pure ground (again, shit)
2 rock/ground, 2 water/rock (what’s the point of having a rock and ground type anyways)
2 poison/ground, 2 poison/bug, 2 pure poison, 3 poison/grass, 1 poison/ghost (everything is poison)
>1 dragon/flying, also a water/dragon if Seadra is water/dragon
>1 water/ice, 1 ice/flying, 1 ice/psychic
>3 normal/flying, 7 pure normal (why so many pures and flyings, also what’s the point of a “normal” type)
>4 pure electrics (1 retroactively electric/steel), 1 electric/flying (too many pures)

Petrel is a weirdo, of course he has a shitty team
And Proton is a glorified goon

At least there were mechanics, unlike KANTOOOOOOO

4 flying/normal*

They're all glorified goons, yet they all have the title of executive.
Although my personal favorite would have to be pic related. After clearing the E4 and a few other kanto gym leaders you face off against this little shit.
>inb4 it's ok because she's supposed to be new
That doesn't excuse her pokemons level being what is likely 20 below yours.

Like Koga had that much better of a team
But yeah the level scaling in Gen 2 gets fucked after Ecruteak city for some reason

Still more optional dungeons than nu Pokemon lmao

Janine should have been a Dark type gym leader so she wouldn’t be her dad but a cute waifu
And Karen should have been Agatha instead because she deserved to have more ghosts

>>>>>>>for some reason

I mean like the entire game, not just the diverging path

You know the exact reason why

Because game frick was always incompetent?

So is Gold canonically the best trainer out of the game protags?

Attached: 1546719063585.jpg (800x1200, 73K)

No. Rosa and Palm Tree from B2W2 have him beat.

Is the PWT canon?

I don't know why it wouldn't be.

if you know your shit gen 5 is best gen

lol

>0 new Pokémon
Hey, they may be retreads if the same ideas but don’t say they aren’t new. Braviary is WAAAAY cooler than Noctowl for example

He's talking about BW2 specifically, I believe, not BW

>retarded genwunners with underaged ,reddit memes

good bait

Golden years were Emerald to BW2

That’s a lotta years. You’re right though, having Colosseum and PMD is the boon.
