ORAS

Pokemon X
Some parts of Sun and Moon but not really honestly, pretty boring I never even finished.

White 2. I just haven't gotten around to playing X/Y/ORAS/Sun/Moon yet. I didn't hear much about X/Y, people just said they were mediocre I think. Kinda looking forward to ORAS. Looking more forward to S/M, though the complaints of endless cutscenes worries me.

By "cutscenes" they usually mean that an NPC will prompt you when you enter a certain area to progress the plot. The actual cutscenes in the game are mostly at the beginning and at the end, with a few small bits of normal rpg dialogue in between. The biggest complant is how long the intro scene is apparently.

>people who like the 3DS Pokemon games are waifufags
Finally, someone says it. Unless you like paying to look at low-poly anime girls, there is nothing particularly redeeming about them.

>>382831887
This anon >>382832346 is a liar. And stop going into things blind. If you want evidence of an overabundance of cutscenes, just look at the gameplay videos online.

Black/White. 150 new pokemon with none of the old ones was fantastic, even if they were clones of the old ones.

It's a shame about Sun/Moon. I feel it was so close to being the best pokemon game we've had in well over a decade, but there were so many bad design decisions that bogged it down.
>cutscenes out the ass
game is practically unreplayable because of this
>linear as fuck
the thing that pisses me off the most about this is the 2nd island - we could have done the trials in any order, fight the fire guy first, fight whatever your starter was strong against, but nope, shit needs to be railroaded so hard that you get punished with a 30 second mini-cutscene if you ever try and stray from the set path.
>tapus, ayys, crystals
these are more personal preference, but I find the tapus and crystals to be stupid. don't like the design of tapus or the idea behind the crystals. They should have fixed mega evolutions instead of trying to slap a band-aid on em, which is what I assume the crystals are there for. The ayys were squandered potential; we should have been able to explore an alien world and get rekt by the ayys, instead it's just a brief 5-minute segment then everything goes back to normal.
>Trials
while no gyms sounded good, fighting the kahunas was basically the same thing as a gym battle, and the trials themselves were just buffed wild pokemon, nothing to write home about.

>>382832078
Colosseum has an awesome track

>>382826579
All the way through? Black 2. I enjoyed Sun, but only at first; I can't fucking stand Lillie and the Kanto pandering is getting out of hand. I'll admit that I really like Red and Blue's new designs, though.

>>382832681

>And stop going into things blind.

That's my favorite way to go into games these days. No/low expectations makes disappointments less severe and enjoyable times more enjoyable. Except in the case of MGS V which somehow disappointed me even though I already had very low expectations.

>>382831604
You did play on Hard, right?

>>382830836
I like Sun and Moon, but I cant deny that Gen 6 and 7 havent completely scratched that pokemon itch that I got from every previous gen.

I can't say HG because I ran into a bunch of things I didn't like and never even finished it.

So, I guess that leaves me with Diamond, but even that was a mixed bag.

>>382832275
Sinnoh games are pretty slow. Up until iron island and Snowpoint, most of the game is trudging through uninspired grass routes. HG and SS have nice touches like the pokeatholan, 8-bit music player, following pokemon,etc. But it takes forever for pokemon to level up, and Kanto in those games is a mess of properly leveled trainers and underleveled pokemon. X and Y were largely trash, but their wider variety of pokemon with more interesting movesets makes playing through it more fun. ORAS was pretty great, aside from the legendary handout and focus on mega-evolutions.

>>382826579

i bought alpha sapphire and moon but didn't play either of them for more than an hour

>>382833052

Clay's Nidoking was fucking me up for a good while because he'd OHKO all my Pokes so I had to raise a Samurott since it was the only thing that wouldn't get one shotted. Ghetsis almost bopped me with his Moxie Gyarados because I didn't switch beforehand cause I mistakenly though it had intimidate.

>>382826579
I would fuck every single one of those Pokemon girls and cum as deep in their wombs as I possibly could.

>>382832681
I'm not lying. The most intrusive and gameplay interrupting "cutscenes" are the NPC prompts, as they freeze the game abruptly for single "go this way." The game only has roughly 15 minutes of actual cutscenes, and if you include all standard story dialogue it's about 45 minutes.

>>382831705

Everything that was wrong with sinnoh was fixed in platinum and even if the level curve is kind of fucked in hg/ss the sheer amount of content makes up for it.
XY while it did have a bigger variety of pokemon other than that Kalos doesn't really have anything going for it in my opinion, maybe it is just me getting older, but I barely remember anything from the kalos region eventhough XY is the latest pokemon game I have played.

I thought he went rogue because he was the one stole the most pokemon in the team and he found out what happend to the pokemon he stole, he couldn't just let this shit happend and recaptures and rehabilitate all the shadow pokemon and stop the organization that is creating them as an act of redemption.

>>382835264
Was it any good? I played ORAS but it's not in my rating of the gens. Also forgot 6 but eh, it wasn't really that memorable anyway so I wouldn't know where to put it.

The last I played through was Crystal, which is still my favorite. The last one to come out I enjoyed was Sun, but that's solely because I can enjoy all the games on some level as long as it has the core Pokemon gameplay. The last release I thoroughly enjoyed was Y, though I do think it could've been a lot better.

>>382826579
Platinum but B&W was not bad. Dropped the series at X&Y

>>382835753

I loved secret bases.
I barely remember anything else about it other than soaring, because holy fuck I loved secret bases. Every day I'd open the game and have some new secret bases to visit.
Spent hours and hours designing the best possible secret base, and only farmed money from the e4 just to buy more stuff for my secret base. Kept collecting flags even after 1000 because goddamn I fucking love secret bases.

Never finished Moon, apparently a lot of people dropped gen 7.

>>382837159
I have no idea sorry.
I was never into secret bases, they were there in gen 3, but they might be slightly worse since there wasn't any wifi yet so visiting secret bases are a local only thing.
The story is slightly different in emerald since you fight against both team aqua and magma and the story is also told more like the original game so it is less "cinematic" if that makes sense.
you might wanna check it out for the original battle frontier and some of the othet content like the desert tower and sky pillar bike challenge.
I hope this helps.

I've only really seen that on this site, the games still produce the same amounts of fan media and discussion they normally do on others.
As far as other sites go in regards to complaining about it though, google reveals that apparently a lot of the people on reddit and twitter who dropped it did so not because of the reasons usually seen here but because they dislike how "not-pokemon" the UBs look.

I literally enjoy all of them the first time I play them, but once the honeymoon phase wears off the flaws become that much more apparent to me down the line. The last game I REALLY enjoyed and look back fondly at is Black and White 2. Aside from maybe story, it did everything better than the game that came before. Great pokemon variety, great side distractions, daily events in the street you could build, and the World Championship being fun as heck. 3vs3 random battles were fun even against the computer. I did not even mind losing because the participation prize alone was worth it unlike Battle Tower stuff where BP are a total grind to get.

>>382838096
I also forget to.mention it was before the special/physical attack split and it didn't have a day and night cycle, it still has an internal clock which lets you evolve umbreon and espeon, but it won't be dark at night and you won't encounter different pokemon at different times.

Prism. B/W if counting only mainlines. I'm very anti-nostalgia, but those were the two games that captured the Gen 1-2 experience which was really lost during 3-4. 7 came close but it was way too unfinished and railroaded with everything hamfisted in between loading zones. Getting stopped every 5 seconds by either Lillie, Hau, a loading zone, or a fucking Wingull is rather repetitive in a game that already doesn't require much than pressing A on the enemy's weakness.

>>382838553
Bike challenge is just an obstacle course you have to clear to with your bike to get to rayquaza, the desert tower is a mini dungeon that at the end of it has the 2 fossils you can get in the game.

First island is the most heavy dialogue part. Although if you dislike the game being more story oriented you'd probably do well just to leave it anyway and play another thing instead. I liked the story but I can see that it's not really something that would be ideal for people who played for the older gameplay style.

I know, right? All those prerelease materials made me think she'd just be some boring quiet girl archetype. Her role in the game wasn't big, but her character was so much more than that.

Ho-oh and lugia on one island, mew on an island and the alien has an island with a special puzzle.
I don't think the islands are a huge ordeal to get through the only thing that.might trip you up is that ho-oh and lugia are like level 70.
Both deoxys and mew are level 30.

>>382840968
The ones in SM are just bad, trimmed down gyms and the premise is basically just "gyms but you fight wild Pokemon". Totems are the only cool part and they'd be better off as just being bosses in regular dungeons along with still having Gyms and Gym Leaders.

>>382830836

Most of the hate is for the casualization. I liked the simplication of competitive mon raising though.

They were basically just gyms by a different name. The trend was already there in the past games to do away with overworld puzzles like those found in gyms, this time instead of going through a couple Gym Trainers they had you doing something else like chasing around wild Pokemon. The actual, biggest difference to gyms was facing something other than a regular Trainer Battle at the end; by Pokemon standards, Totem Pokemon are a great innovation since Game Freak finally dared to design a battle type where they straight up buff the opponent's stats and give them both a 2-to-1 advantage and a clear strategy for you to work your way around. Very refreshing, and even mildly challenging since I kept my team's levels very low.

>>382826579
Moon.
The only mainline game I dislike is X and Y.

>>382841296
Ah cool I'll try and remember that for Deoxys. I liked that they made it into a non-event legendary in ORAS though, thanks for reminding me it existed.

Diamond
Everyone I talk to shits on gen 4, and myabe im just biased because it was my first pokemon game
but i enjoyed it.
I liked how it utilized the touch screen compared to gen 5 and 6 (didnt play 7)
I liked the comfy atmosphere, I liked the mining minigame bullshit, I liked the selection of pokemon.
Infact, of all pokemon in general, I think I like gen 4 pokemon more than any other gen for my teams.
The thing that pissed me off was the mystery gift bullshit.
Ive never liked that you needed to do weird shit to get some trophy legendaries just for collection.
To this day, why does mew even fucking exist if you could only get it at events. Everyone thought it was stupid too, and just hacked em into their games.

after b/w, b2/w2, playing firered, X, I feel that ive experienced all pokemon has to offer for me. They are cozy games, but I dont wanna replay them.
I don't see the point of sinking hours and money into the series anymore.

Sun and Moon, wasn't too great on a repeat playthrough though

Something I've wanted for a long time was some sort of veteran mode that cut tutorials, allowed cutscenes to be skipped, and upped the difficulty appropriately

Heart Gold or Platinum, whichever game out later.

Dragged myself through 5 and 6 convinced they were just weak gens, got to 7 and halfway through the game realized Pokemon died 3 generations ago and I didn't even notice, put the game down and it's the only Pokemon game I've never finished.

That said, when the inevitable DP remake comes around I'll buy the fuck out of it as long as they dont fuck it up, but that'll almost certainly be my last Pokemon anything for the foreseeable future.

It's basing the rating on the first impression of the gens, including how much I liked the Pokemon designs, how they played after anticipating a new gen, etc. I didn't rate it on the seconds/remakes due to those always being invariably better than the first ones but I already had experienced what new stuff the gen had to offer, and thus my opinion would have been skewed horribly.

That doesn't do a whole lot for your credibility. The end product is way more important, we have the end product for 6/7 gens right now.

Why would you bother saying Gen 4 is bad because of DP in a world where Platinum exists? Or also rate 5 that fucking highly when you're only looking at the first game in a gen, BW 1 was trash

Lana was definitely the most amusing character. Nanu and Hau were nice in my opinion. Gladion was great when he was on screen with Hau, too, they play off each other great, though on his own Gladion is really flat. Didn't really care for anyone else.

Sun. It wasn't perfect, but the trip itself was enjoyable and the cast helped with making the world feel lively. My overall best experience has to go to Heartgold or White 2.

>>382840968
I appreciate the change of pace they went with, especially with the trials being a part of the environment rather than a boxed in area. I'd wait and see how Ultra Sun/Moon handle them before asking for gen 8 to try anything.

>>382843193
Was the sequel really that bad? Honest question. I never picked it up but back when I gave a shit about Pokemon it was on my list and I never got around to it.

Is there a way i can replace the batteries on the GBC and GBA games?

If we're talking at the time that's objectively Gold/Silver, you delusional BWfag.

>>382842802
Because those were my first impressions of it.
If I were to rate it based on the later titles, I couldn't rate it accurately due to all of them being infinitely better than the first, and also it would render the list incapable of holding the most recent generation. The difference in quality at the time of release among the improved versions is not as distinct as the difference in quality between the first ones.

>>382843571

It's just the name of the game itself makes it impossible to discuss because of shitposters

>>382843746

>>382843193
The omission that bothers me the second most in ORAS is Emerald added a ton of Double Battles, but almost none of those added ones are in ORAS in any form. Number one is them gutting the New Mauville dungeon despite giving it a sick new visual overhaul and having blocked off doors clearly meant to lead deeper into a redesigned dungeon.

>>382843298
It's good but the name is a shitpost magnet.

>>382843926
I did, but that includes bw2.

>>382843898
>>382843906
That's unfortunate, but I understand.

>>382843926
I was the guy who made the list and this >>382843602 was why.
I can't accurately rate them due to the initial quality being too similar and it leaving out the newest generation.
If I was forced to rate purely on improved versions, it might go
5>4>2
And if I had to include remakes
5>4>6 (secret bases)>2

>>382832770
This is the only correct opinion. 100% this.
Starting a new adventure with strictly brand new pokedex until postgame is what pokemon is meant to be. Every region feels exactly the same when half the dex is from elsewhere. Fuck that globalist shit.

>>382844105
isn't that just Stadium 3

>>382830836
The general opinion of every new Pokemon game is that it's trash. And to be fair, most of them do come out with a lot of missed potential or dropped features that make you go "What the hell". But then the second "version" comes out and makes things slightly better. Or sometimes significantly better.

Emerald was the last "traditional" Pokemon game I played all the way through and even repeated a few times. I dunno what it is about tropical settings, but that always makes the game feel much more comfy and I end up replaying it at least once. Emerald, Mario Sunshie, FFX.

>>382844454
Ignore those ignorant fanboys. BW is a great game for being the only later gen to capture the experience the first generation provided. Your arguments are perfectly sound and rating games by initial impressions is the only way to fairly judge the series. Otherwise, as you stated, later generations would be unequivocally superior in terms of gameplay.

Good taste, anon.

>>382845250
>I dunno what it is about tropical settings, but that always makes the game feel much more comfy and I end up replaying it at least once.

Sun and Moon have Tropical settings though. The Alola region is basically Hawaii.

>>382845985
Thanks anon, you put it better than I could've.
I really did enjoy it as far as the first games in gens go.

>>382826579
Black White 2 was a blast, Sun Moon made me laugh and gave me goosebumps but some scenes just dragged on way too much.

>>382845929
>>382846205

Then I might have really enjoyed it if I gave it a chance, but Sun/Moon came out well past the point where I cared about Pokemon, and at the time I couldn't really justify buying a 3DS for one game from a series that had grown stale for me.

>>382830836
It's my least favorite entry, but I can at least enjoy it because it's still the same core game and it did improve on Gen VI in two areas, enemy team building and characterization.

>>382826579
Black 2. I just stopped caring after that for some reason. I've never even tried any of the 3ds games. Maybe I've just gotten older and no longer care about babby's first RPG.

>>382846249

Souls Sliver.

I forced myself to slog through Y and Moon just to keep up with the franchise. They were both terrible.

>>382826579
White 2 I think. Maybe Black. It's definitely been a while. Gen 6 was fucking atrocious, Gen 7 is okay though.

For those who like the gen 6 games... why? I mean specifically for X and Y.

Utterly devoid of challenge
Utterly devoid of postgame
The worst cases of a story handholding you in the series history
A step back in plot design after gen 5
An absolutely dire cast of rivals and gym leaders with very very few being standouts.

All the issues it has completely blow it's quality of life changes for mechanics EV training out of the water.

I like the Kalos region itself a lot, I really like most of the new features and mechanic changes including the QOL stuff, the menus are the smoothest they ever have been, the music stands out to me the most among the recent games, it has my favorite batch of brand-new Pokemon, personally I think it's the peak of the art direction of the games since Sugimori switched to digital coloring and Atsusko Nishida became less involved with the character design process, and to be honest I find a strange enjoyment in how underdeveloped a lot of the story and characters are. It leaves a lot of possibilities to think about, or vague dots to connect. I don't really care about difficulty or handholding in Pokemon, either.

It's definitely got its many flaws though, and I wouldn't objectively rate it highly whatsoever, at absolute best it's "okay". It's in my personal top three though, behind Crystal and BW2.

Last Pokemon game I enjoyed was Emerald or Soul Silver

Emerald was fantastic, but it gets shitposted as much as R/S despite being miles better. It's like saying Pt is the same as D/P.

>>382847809
The online pretty much. Really nice, shame it was missing GTS negotiations.
The Pokemon designs were way too bland though, reminded me of gen 2 even though gen 2 had some really great stuff. It introduced customization too, which I liked, although SM did it better simply because they didn't have blurry faced chibi models.

HeartGold

I haven't played anything newer than Black/White 2.

>>382852141
Emerald adds a lot of cool shit that makes the game a lot more likable but the outright problems people might have with RS aren't solved by Emerald. ORAS actually fixes some of those problems but then cuts out all the cool shit one would like Emerald for and adds its own problems and then we're right back at square one
