Gen 1 had good story and good design, but many bugs. Gen 1 was great all thigns considering. It wasn't a competitive, balanced, or complex game. First and foremost it was about inventing a new genre of gameplay to let people experience being a Pokemon trainer. It accomplished that really well and was truly remarkable for its time with a little of everything that makes a game great.

Many of the later generations lost that magic. I'd even say Gen 2 lost it, and Gen 3 brought a little of it back, although it felt a bit empty at time. Over time the design of the game failed and it was no longer an immersive experience of being in the Pokemon world. The characters became boring, the story became pointless, the world design was hugely flawed, the Pokemon designs were too outlandish, the overall tone of the game changed to be more childish when it didn't need to be since it was already hitting a sweet spot of a children's game that appealed to adults with its sprinkle of adult themes such as gambling and crime.

To say that Gen 1 was bad because it had bugs or because of the special stat is asinine.

>>
>>376528596
To say it was GOOD because it was innovative is just as asinine.

As to why the new games apparently lost their magic, maybe it's not the games. Maybe it's you. Have you ever replayed the older games? The writing is absolute shit.

You can get lost, you can get physically stuck, but most importantly, underwater caves contain loose particles in cave walls that have been undisturbed for years, even decades. Kicking one by accident releases a tremendous amount of debris which can either completely immobilize someone by caving them in, or make navigation completely impossible with zero visiblity, or a combination of both.

Cave divers have special equipment for this, such as a tether back to the entrance.

He's saying it was good because it had good design and it was immersive. Fuck off kid. Having more lines doesn't equate to a better story. Old games had better story. Hell, fucking Dark Souls had around a dozen lines of dialogue related to the main story but it still had a far better story than something like Mass Effect Andromeda which was nothing but dialogue.

Gen 6.
Right around this time GameFreak realized they could put in the least effort possible and still make bank off of the games, and the transition to 3D really fucked a lot of things.
XY was bad, ORAS was mediocre, but you could tell they were rushing with ORAS because they needed to be ready for the 20th Anniversary.
Come the 20th, and SM is painfully mediocre, also feels rushed and you can tell they were cutting as many corners as possible.

The problem is t hey are not evolving the game at all despite all this time. From the beginning people want to see Pokemon in the world doing things they can do like in the anime. They slowly rolled out showing us stuff like Machamp moving boxes and stuff but people wanted more. Sun and Moon was their big chance to really do that. Instead we got the same ol same ol in new paint.

This is something romhacks and RPGmaker Pokemon games get right. You can interact with Pokemon in the world. Hell for as cringy as Pokemon Zeta was it was almost 10/10 in this department.

>Pokemon is sourounded by a pack of others and is dying about to be eaten
>Fight off the pack
>Heal up the pokemon
>They grow attached to you and want to come with you

>Pokemon is weak and obviously hungry
>Share food with it
>It perks up and shows you a secret area with an item in it
>Later in the game you meet the Pokemon again and they remember you

Shit like that is what we want.

I should be more clear. I beat the game, and was working on some of the final post-game stuff. I even completed my pokedex, which is the first time I had ever done that.

I was building up a good team for the battle tree or whatever it was, and one day just dropped the game 100%. I was really enjoying it so I have no clue where that came from.

False, ORAS have the best bottom screen features out of any game and retains all/most of the QOL features XY had. All it was missing was the battle frontier, which is just more grinding on cheating AI for hold items and TMs. It should have been there, but that's the only real downside the games have. Not something that's actually wrong with them, just something they're missing.

I'm sure there's more stuff I'm missing, been a while since I've played them.

It runs poorly because GF decided to future-proof their models and make them insanely detailed to the point where the 3DS chugs when there's more than one on the screen, I'll certainly give you that. But ORAS had, by far, the best feature set of any game, and then SM chucked 75% of it out the window.

I lumped that in with grinding on AI. It was neat, but I'd rather just play other people.

I just didn't like BW2 because they completely lost what made BW feel fresh and like the first "real" sequel in the series. Nothing but new Pokemon in a new place, no fucking Zubats and Tentacools, completely revamped visuals, it felt like an actual step forward from the GBA games after the massive disappointments that were DP.

I see you're trying to defend your series by deflecting my claims back at me, but why not try to see the designs are overdesigned in digimon. I even loved the series as a kid (the story was fantastic) but come on.

Until we have a global rule that says this:

>All Pokemon threads, images, Flashes, and avatars belong on /vp/.

You're wrong.

Those rules do not disqualify Pokemon discussion on /v/, it just says you have to talk about the games, which is exactly what this thread is doing, and that /vp/'s only allowed discussion topics are Pokemon-related.

First pokemon game I dropped midway. Unbearable cutscene interruption, the most handholding+linearity combination, and the easiest game to date.

These were all recurring issues that have been happening for 20 years and have been fixed by JRPGs decades ago, apparently gamefreak not only could not bother, but also shat on the bed even harder.

They know pokemon will sell to autists no matter what, so there's no reason to try and improve shit, I guess. It's not really their fault. I just wish the community weren't total blind furry drones and had some standards. I'm done with the serie. I will wait when it crashes down so that's when they'll be compelled to use a development team to improve the low quality-1980-rpg tier videogame.

Moon has a reversed day/night cycle, meaning it's gonna be day when it's night IRL, and night when it's day. Other than that, these are the version exclusive pokémon (though you could always trade online for those you want but aren't on your version).

Damn shame. I hardly ever say this but if any game needed DLC it's this series. The last two games have had poor post-game, and I don't have a clue why. BW and BW2's postgames were some good shit, what's troubling the development enough to prevent that from translating into future games?

Fuck, I don't even have the will to boot up the game to get some of the legendary/event/promo pokemon that show up for the distribution thing. Shame, but it was one of my favorite games of last year.

X&Y definitely.
Platinum was great, but after beating it I kinda felt like I was growing out of the series. Then Black and White came out and blew me away, didn't really care for B2 and W2, which I know will get me crucified on /v/. X&Y just felt like a complete disappointment. The story was short, the mega evolutions felt pointless, and there was no post game whatsoever. ORAS was just the nail in the coffin for me.

The funny thing is I spent an entire summer breeding several boxes of perfect pokemon on X version and I never even used them.

Diamond and Pearl. My copy came with some kind of bug or something where each save took a single minute, and every "Saving lots of data..." took 3 and a half minutes. No bootlegs here, got mine at a store legit. Just straight up came with that stupid bug. As someone that saves frequently, it was very upsetting. And with how slow the game is already, it made the experience even more dreadful.

I still pulled myself through, but it was just so damn boring. People kept telling me Platinum was amazing, and I thought it'd redeem itself, but it never did. It was only a slightly improved version.

Well after the first two games and then the third/sequel to the previous games that improve on their issues with the only other game that this didn't happen with was X/Y.

I can't seem to remember now, did he always had his flames all the time in the anime previously or would he not have them at certain times? Most I can remember is him with the fire mane, which is why I find this odd. I'm not sure if it was always this way or they just decided to have him this way.

It's a shame because, due to this, people often judge Typhlosion of being too bland when he does have the fire mane, but only when he attacks.

Occasionally he did, though the only time Typhlosion appears in the anime is in the Gold/Silver special I'm pretty sure. Even then he doesn't look nearly as fucking strange as his XY model. The proportions are all completely fucked up.

ORAS

For a remake, it was way too fucking easy. The 7th gym leader who was actually hard to beat in the originals was a fucking joke.
There was no battle frontier. That was the whole appeal of emerald back in the day. I liked the challenge and the bullshit from one hit houndooms and those tank leeching fucking blisseys.

I played through Moon once, and felt empty at the end. The cutscenes made it feel as sluggish as diamond and pearl were. The characters were a different kind of annoying unlike XY.

>>376549412
>For a remake, it was way too fucking easy
What does being a remake have to do with that?

FUNFACT: FRLG and HGSS had largely the same trainer roster, level curve and wild Pokemon as their original counterparts, just like ORAS did. Because they're remakes.

No Battle Frontier is a legitimate complaint, but that's more an issue of what's not there than what is there being bad. I would have also rather had an Emerald remake than straight RS remakes, but again that's more of a missed opportunity than something that is there being bad.

ORAS have the best feature set of any game to date, SM shit the bed there so horribly and removed much of it.

This bugs the shit out of me too. Since XY had those retarded gimmick sky-battles that didn't even come back, every single Pokemon that could participate in them will now hover in place in every future game, it looks fucking dumb.

I want them to do away with all the water Pokemon fucking floating in the air too, it looks just as stupid. Just have them sitting on the ground and flop around or something, fuck, anything is better than the magic floating fish we've had since Stadium o N64.

Xatu and Claydol were only in Emerald, which is why they're not there in ORAS, as they were remakes of RS.

I agree they should have just remade emerald too, but they didn't make ORAS any easier than the originals aside from giving you the exp share.

Festival Plaza was such a bad idea. Most of it should have just been part of Pelago except the online stuff that should have just been immediately accessible like in XY and ORAS.

Gens 1 and 2 were GOAT especially in tandem with Pokemon stadium 1 and 2. Raising a team in game and registering them to battle more challenging opponents on the n64 was so much fun

As soon as natures and limited/permanent EVs hit RSE the game became so much shittier. Anything you use ingame is shit and it hardly enhanced competitive play as 99% of Pokemon have at most 2 different optimal "sets"

The more GF sacrifices ingame exploration for the online scene, the worse the games become

It's not about competitive Pokemon, that's the point. Gen 1 was never a massive success because it was balanced. GF lost sight of what made pokemon so popular and are focusing The newer gens on things people never asked for and remove features that people like.

Centering ingame mechanics around the competitive meta was a bad idea.

It did okay. Nowhere near the mainline games or other popular series.
Doubt we'll ever see a sequel though.

How have they done that? Auto-weather in the Gen 5 meta was centralizing, 6 and 7 are even worse with mega evolutions making hyper-offense and anything that doesn't have a meta-specific niche or doesn't have a 600 BST less useful than they'd have otherwise been. If anything they've moved away from catering to anyone but the lowest common denominator. More handholding, the games are even easier, more focus on story and they've made it easier and easier with each game to breed competitively viable Pokemon.

Ever try breeding in RS or FRLG, with no everstone to pass natures and IVs down? Ever tried soft-restting without Synchronize? You can get a high-IV Pokemon in the latest games very quickly once you set yourself up with the right items and whatnot, fuck just grinding to level them up takes more time now since you can just slap straight 31's on any Pokemon at lvl 100.

They're not designing anything with the meta in mind, just making it easier for players to get there, which isn't even a bad thing. If they were we wouldn't have mega evolutions go to shit like fucking Scizor and Salamence who were already stupidly powerful, or really mega evolutions at all.
