My only issue with the newer gens is that the starters are designed more like characters rather than animals. Like seriously, why the fuck is a tiger a wrestler? How would that even happen?

Go back to making the starters animalistic, not humanistic you stupid gooks.

Just reached final evolution stage with this guy, incineroar looks like something off a furry thread. Was pretty disappointed desu stage 1 and 2 were really good, there was nothing to indicate to me that all of a sudden he was going to turn into some bipedal feline humanoid shit.
I also remember as a kid being able to make a party out of dragons with near enough all the main elements, i'm dangerously close to the end to still be using the party i am.

GTS only works when you deposit something decent and ask for something similarly decent.
Almost all the non-retarded trades get snatched up pretty quickly.

Oh, and you can disable a chunk of the people asking for legends, you can also disable people asking shit that isn't in your dex, though that gets less useful the longer you play.

GTS is still utter garbage. Just the option to check the stats of the deposited poke would make everything so much better.

What went wrong is that they took simple handheld rpgs designed for children and turned them into generic exposition heavy jrpgs.

Way too many cutcenes you can't skip or quickly get through, for a handheld game. It would alright if the story had effort put into but it doesn't. Its the same fucking Pokemon story we've been getting since R/S

Weezing is one of my favourite OG pokémon and I sort of wish he got an evolution just to provide him with a little extra, but even as is he's great.

If they gave him an evolution i'm sure it would ruin his look and feel anyway.

1 was an awesome experience as a kid but its woefully broken

2 was also great as a kid and a lot less broken but looking back the game is extremely barebones and stripped down. Still good though.

3 would be great if it wasn't for the awful water region.

4 is the most bland, its would be the worst game if it wasn't for the special/physical split and Cynthia

5 is the best.

6 is the actual worst. Dressing up is fun though.

7 is great for trying to go in a different direction. My main gripe with 7 is that there isn't enough, which as far as problems go at least shows progress.

4 shouldn't be second from the bottom
D/P are pretty bad for main series games but Platinum fixed everything and added more while HG/SS is tied with B2/W2 for best games in the series

First they weren't birds, now they aren't even animals at all.
Will owls ever catch a break?
