I just couldn't get into any of the games after the first gen.

It is not a remake. Just the first gen games are being released on 3DS.

>>323167889
They are similar, but in gen 6 it just manages to be shittier. Shauna's official art, for example.

>>323168163
Ash has entered the league in every region plus the orange islands and lost everytime.

Seriously?
What a fag, i wish he could win just once but i guess Pokemon will be a neverending story and Ash is going to walk around the entire world as long as the series exists.

I got burnt out back around DPPt, went through the motions with SS and White, and just gave up entirely after I finished the main story on the latter.

Though eventually I picked up X on a whim and it kinda rekindled my interest. I know a lot of people prefer the gen 5 games but X (and Alpha Sapphire, for all its problems its still a remake of my favorite game in the series) is what got me back into the series so I kinda prefer it to gens 4 and 5 personally speaking.

I dunno if OP's image is just washed out but I don't mind it. Kinda reminds me of the old watercolors. Not as good, though really the actual art back then wasn't amazing it just had a great aesthetic to it because of said watercolors. I'd say it was at its best around gen 3 or so since after that it just became really homogenized and boring as far as art quality goes.

I think it was implied that it was normal back in the day in one of the games.

Either way I'd assume it's closer to cousin-fucking than bestiality depending on the species of pokemon. Like if you're fucking a Luxray you're gonna get a lot of weird looks but if you're fucking a gardevoir then people probably just try to not bring it up. As long as you wait for it to fully "mature" so to speak.

While I see where you're coming from it doesn't work because you have to have your protag that people root for win when it matters sometimes.

Nobody gives a shit about Ash because he's proven to be one of the best out there but he always fuckin chokes when it actually matters, in the league. Only time he didn't was some filler season.

Soul Silver is when I realised I was over Pokemon. Silver was favourite and the battery in my cart is dead now with my 251 save gone forever, so I was really excited for SS but trying to play it I just got bored with it around Olivine City.

The Pokemon formula just does absolutely nothing for me anymore and new games just retreading it but with 100 ugly new designs has no appeal. I understand I'm not the target audience, which is kids who haven't played through the same thing a dozen times already though.

I don't really either, just did a team up once back in Emerald when it was relevant.

But with the way the games work you don't really get much variety in the teams you can use during the campaign either. You're stuck with the same small selection of monsters available until end game and even in the games where trading is unlocked at the start most of the monsters you could trade in to try and add variety don't evolve (of have annoying evolution requirements) or learn most of their moves until lv40+ so they're boring all through the campaign anyway.

Not him but even the Ash anime has more action than Origins.

4 episodes were way to few and resulted in a lousy resume of the game story that had more dialogues than actual fights, and the few showed last like 1 minute for fucks sake.
Literally the only good thing about that anime was the punch Blastoise got on the face without giving a fuck.

Not even the best part. In DP it took a nigga with a team full of legendaries to make Ash lose the league, and he still at least beat his Darkrai and Latios. In BW how does he lose the league? To some kid that only brought 5 Pokémon.

HG / SS are awful ports. They forced players to grind so much that there's functionally no reason to play with pokemon you caught on your own cartridge.

>Route Enemies are generally 10 levels or more below the gym leader's pokemon, making their EXP gains a pittance.

But everyone loves it because FOLLOWING POKEMON OMG. A feature they never fucking brought back, despite how great it was.
>>
>>323174976
Pretty sure that kid also thought he was in the johto league. Used lucario as well just to put the cherry on top.

I always thought "legendary" pokemon shouldn't even be capture-able and should be more like boss battles in the games. It looks retarded to have some asshole kid whip out a Lugia.
Glad I dropped the anime after he got into Hoenn.

>>323175273

Uh, hoothoot and sentret are available in the very first patch of grass, alongside rattata and pidgey. But they were there in the the original as well. Just pointing that bit out.

Ash is much better in the new series, and the main rival is legitimately powerful, but really boils down to whether or not Ash wins the league.

>Forced players to grind so much
Because they made it like G/S/C and that also requires a shit ton of grinding.
>No EXP share until very late game
What kind of pleb actually uses that baby mode shit?
>Route enemies are generally 10 levels or more below the gym leader's Pokemon
A problem, but still how it was in Gen 2 to begin with. Even still, trainers are always supposed to be decently lower than Gym Leaders because those are supposed to be the strongest trainers in each area.
>They were too embarrassed to put their version rat and bird in the game start
Sentret and Hoothoot? They ARE in the first routes, you idiot.
>Worst grass starter
This is true. Chikorita a shit.

The console pokemon games are awful though. It just highlights how boring the core pokemon gameplay actually is because the 3 hour long animations and camera panning make everything take forever.

There's no point putting them on consoles without a major, fundamental gameplay change.

He also won the Orange Islands League, which obviously doesn't mean as much as winning a main region league, but is still something.

Honestly, his progression from the original series up to DP was pretty good. I'm pretty sure BW is the only reason the "Ash is an incompetent loser" loser is so prominent. It seems to be generally agreed that he's solid in XY.

Remember at Unova they were trying some weird soft reboot thing where they were originally trying to ignore all previous seasons as much as possible so that new children would not be confused if they referenced something from 2 or more regions ago.
it really is a case that shows how much they should replace Ash or at the very least downgrade him to be a commonly reoccurring character or into a Brock/Misty tier main one.
But he is way too popular and well known now to actually do that since now it would be like trying to replace Sonic or Mario

Does anyone else prefer gen 1 and 2 because of how much more simple and realistic the world was in those games? There are pokemon designs in every gen I love and hate so I understood why people complained about newer designs.

most overrated battle. bulking all that shit was pure plot armor, too many CGI beams, jerky animation and QUALITY because they were clearly saving budget for XYZ. plus only fighting autism cats is weak for a seventh gym, they could have easily had slowbro/slowking as well, and fit some hawlucha/noibat bro-op.

was only arguably better than valerie's gym, and not by much.

Pokemon Origins is a failure for reasons other than comparing it to the other anime. Here's why:

- Every fucking fight is the same. "Red's team is pushed to the limit but he comes from behind and wins with Charizard"
- We hear so much about how Red loves and cares for his Pokemon but all he ever gives a shit about is Charizard
- The "gotta catch em all" bullshit also ties into the above; he treats Pokemon as things in a list and doesn't raise any of them, as shown when he catches a Fearrow despite already having a Spearrow
- The loving and caring Red considers THROWING A ROCK AT CHANSEY because lol that's what you do in the game what a great guy
- Immersion breaking game mechanic shit that takes you out of the story like visible HP bars
- Purports to be truer to the game mechanics but has shit like a fucking Rhydon OHKOing a Jolteon with an electric attack

Origins is garbage

If I want to play the pokeyman games in what order should I go through the gens? I kind of just started with LeafGreen/FireRed since I figured they'd be better than the base game. Did I do good? If not what do. If yes, how do I continue? HeartGold/SoulSilver?
>>
>>323167769
The only reason Red is Champion is because everyone else in the show is insanely incompetent. How shitty a trainer do you have to be in order to lose to a guy who's only strategy is "throw everything you have without thinking until something eventually works"? Guy never even trains his Pokemon properly. Everything other than Charizard is shit.

The stories don't really matter, so I'd recommend the best games of their gens.

>>
>>323198961
Forgot to mention, FR/LG/Emerald use Gen 3 mechanics, Plat/HG/SS use Gen 4, B/W uses Gen 5, and X/Y uses 6.

The mechanics get better/more polished as the series goes on.

In the show, Gym Leaders are more often than not more skilled than their game counterparts, in part because they're capable of techniques and tactics that really aren't even remotely possible in the games in anyway, such as freezing the battlefield to make maneuvering more difficult. Their battlefields are also often designed to give them an inherent advantage. It's not just "Use Bubble! Enemy Geodude was defeated in one hit!"

Ash's opponents are generally always as strong as the writers need them to be. Some kinda reverse plot armor. This often results in this really bizarre situation where the Gym Leaders' skill levels are all over the goddamn place, so the second Gym Leader's some kinda master tactician while the sixth's a shitty novice or something.

If nothing else, I suppose we should be glad that Gym Leaders don't just give their badges away anymore like in Kanto.

like what? that trailer doesn't have any substance, it's just a flashy montage. if you're talking about the animation, it is like that.
>>
>>323203756
Gay, you say?

That's right up my alley
>>
>>323203093

Even as a kid I could never get into the anime because the calling out attacks thing was always awkward as fuck. And it looks especially cringe worthy there

"Stoutland, use Bite!" Just, fuck. What's the point of having the trainers there? Just ruins any pacing in the combat and makes the whole thing feel awkward
>>
>>323203093
Why aren't the games like this? Why does Gamefreak continue to rehash the same tired formula, but with a few more bells and whistles attached? Pokemon could be so much better if they stopped assuming kids were retarded and fleshed out or revamped the combat system.

>forgetting basic shit like Pokemon genders and type effectiveness
>a more serious Team Rocket, which could be bad or good, depending on who you ask, but they barely show up much anyway, if I recall, and when they do they end up not doing much.

>a plot that was set up from the very beginning cut off due to Earthquake/Tsunami, was going to showcase Team Plasma
>lost to a guy in the league with 5 Pokemon and the last being a Riolu that was almost defeated then evolved last minute and won, and a lot of stupid decisions in between.
>That guy lost to a guy with a party of Eeveelutions
>last arc was a bunch of pointless filler for Ash's journey back home. Charizard came back, but even that wasn't worth it.
DP, while dragging on, I felt had at least some interesting bits going on, but Best Wishes dragged on and didn't really try. It was sort of fun while it was airing, but it just shot itself in the foot so many times that it didn't have a leg to stand on.

You know, if they could hire good voice actors for the dub, I wouldn't only acknowledge Pokemon in Japanese. I know it's for kids, but so is Disney's stuff and most anime games have better English voice acting than this now anyway.
>>
>>323204853

What? No. But in the game it's not prevalent. You select the command and bam, it's done. Simple RPG stuff

But when you translate that to an action anime it just feels off
>>
>>323204932

it's not just the voices, it's the music. that trailer kept the OST but the show and movies change it completely.

To be fair, they were trying to teach that to new fans

>>323204901
Even if that weren't the case, how the hell is a Jolteon one-shot by a special electric attack from a Rhyhorn? Unless the Jolteon was insanely underleveled, that would never happen.

Which is probably what happened here. Origins Red doesn't actually train his Pokemon. Aside from Charizard, everything is insanely underleveled.

There's nothing that can be done about it. Unless you want the Pokemon to do everything on their own while the trainer just stands around like a pissant doing jack-shit.
>>
>>323204901
That's not even the problem, if that Jolteon happened to have Quick Feet instead, it should have been a lv100 Rhyhorn against a lv23 Jolteon to oneshot it, thus proving that Red literally doesn't give a shit about anyone but Charizard.

Because it works, and that's what they're going for. The "few more bells and whistles", as you call them, IS them "fleshing it out". This isn't about them thinking kids are retarded, this is about Gamefreak not being fucking stupid and keeping a game how it's supposed to be.
There isn't a reason to just throw something out the window and create something from scratch for the sole purpose of being new if you have something that work and fits. If you want a nice, simple game, like Pokemon, you play Pokemon, if you want something different, play one of the side-games that actually explore different play styles or play a different game.
>>
>>323205248

And that's the issue. The whole anime is just a commercial for the latest pokemon game and it doesn't do enough to raise beyond that. Yugioh is much the same way, yet it managed to push a little harder to have its own identity beyond selling the latest pack

Until they create a series separated from the idea of selling the games I don't imagine it will ever be any good.

This is one of the things I liked about Digimon. The humans only talk when needed, only providing items for their partners and nothing more.

I mean I get it; Thematically it makes sense. But yes, if it were just the pokemon fighting then the action would be smoother and less awkward

Or at least, give the trainers/aspect of commanding the pokemon more depth. Just calling out an attack makes the trainers feel unneeded. I don't know how to fix it personally, but

There would be no point to the trainers if they didn't tell the Pokemon what to do. It's not like in Digimon where the humans are actually necessary for shit like evolution. And in all subsequent shows after Adventure, the humans were actually necessary for more than just friendship power.

In Tamers, the humans actually merged with their Digimon to achieve their Ultimate evolutions. They also used cards to power up their Digimon early on.
In Frontier, the humans actually turned into Digimon themselves.
In Savers, the main human beat the shit out of enemy Digimon himself. In fact, he's the one responsible for taking down several of the main villains by punching them to death.
In Xros Wars, the main human is the general leading his army and issuing commands.

Not to mention the guy not only thought it was a different league, but wasn't even properly registered until Ash fucking reminded him about it.

I disagree. DM fucked up the Egyptian RPG arc because it wasn't about duel monsters, GX's plot didn't kick in until the second half and was just about people trying to become pro duelists, 5D's tossed Aki aside just because Crow's deck was selling better, and Zexal refused to acknowledge fusion or synchro because they were trying to push XYZ. Never watched Arc V, though.
>>323205445
I know it works and I know they won't bother changing the formula, but their added tedium of abilities, IVs, EVs, and natures sort of cancels out the claim that they want to keep things simple, in the same way that online trading and battling cancel out the common argument that Pokemon is a handheld franchise due to its social aspect. Furthermore, would you say that Mario transitioning from 2d to 3d was an necessary change?
>>
>>323205804
They did. Ever since Advanced Generation, they've been trying to make Ash's position less superfluous by having him constantly come up with strategies and tactics. Half the time, even his own Pokemon aren't sure what the hell he's trying to have them do until they actually do it. Without his commands, they'd lose half their battles. So it's not just issuing commands anymore.

Unfortunately, this has the consequence of allowing actions that are literally not possible by any means in the game, such as using Flare Blitz while underground to eliminate Toxic Spikes.
>>
>>323206240
Arc V is some interesting shit man. I don't even know what's going on and it doesn't even really feel like they're pushing to sell Pendulum (even though they are).
>>
>>323206240
That's what the spin-offs are for. There is no reason to change the game if they already make other games that are completely different.

Let's say that you created Chess. And the players suddenly say that they want a game where all the pieces are circles and can all only move diagonally. Do you change Chess to suit their demands? No, you create Checkers and leave Chess the fuck alone.
>>
>>323206240

EVs and IVs have always been in the game you dingus. Newer gens actually simplified them, but that's not the point. They keep the core gameplay simple while expanding it for people who care. Low skill floor, high skill ceiling. They're not just going to turn it into SMT and alienate most of their fanbase because "muh innovashun."
>>
>>323206240
>>323206591

I would be the happiest camper if they rebalanced and reworked the game around 3v3 or heck, even rotation battles. They're both far more interesting than the standard 1v1 setup, but aren't at all balanced properly and never prevalent in the game's single player progression

Would be enough to innovate the game, fix a lot of currently broken pokemon that don't work in the 1v1 environment, without massively changing the formula
>>
>>323206906
No one likes 3v3 or Rotation Battles. Double Battles are the norm.
>>
>>323206906
It was such a disappointment when only one or two people had triple battles. I thought they were cool.
>>
>>323207065

Everyone I've talked to that actually sits down and gives rotation battles a proper chance ends up loving them. Just the games never push them and everyone is comfortable in 1v1 and doubles

They just needed to be expanded a bit and there's so much they could do with the concept
>>
>>323206906

Their official tournament format is 4v4 doubles. Singles is only for single player, which isn't balanced for competitive 1v1, it's balanced for RPG style progression.

VGC only has three major problems: Landorus, Thundurus and Kangaskhan. When they banned them in 2014, we saw some of the craziest and most interesting team comps that actually worked, then right back to the status quo last year.

Back to /vp/ autists

>>323207907
You're right. The ones saying "go back go X board" are autists.
>>
>>323207317
Not him, but I've played rotation battles a few times. Those things are complete ass. They take goddamn forever. Like, I'm talking so long that I've had singles battles that involved stalling for well over 50 turns and they still weren't as long as the rotation battles.
I tried to give the style a fair chance with multiple battles against different folks, but it was just unbearable every single time.

I liked it. The new Pokemon are mostly pretty good designs, the european style is cool and you can dress a cute grill if you choose the female player.

I'd also say it has the comfiest overworld so far.

They're remakes of gen 3 not 4 you know.
Anyway you're still getting more out of it content wise than XY and even the novelty of a new story and region will be a moot point for the game soon.
There's no reason to buy XY anymore.
