ITT: Opinions /vp/ would crucify you for. >Following Pokemon

Apparently Meganium, Emboar and MegaCharizard X have bad design despite being the best fully evolved starters along with Empoleon. I don't understand why they hate them. Except MegaCharizard X, I know they don't like that one because of the edgy meme, but which meme does stop them from liking the others I mentioned?

I don't care about postgame.

>Following Pokemon and Battle Frontier were great features that could have made a comeback if Amie hadn't taken up development time. Amie is a waste.

Stopped reading there because you clearly don't know what /vp/ thinks.

>>27187114
Correct, because /vp/ is not one person.
It is a board. Better yet, a location.

Everyone is a faggot on /vp/ and reddit is superior for Pokemon discussions. Hell even gamefaqs is better, the only reason I'm here is to find gems like anti-greninja guy and shitfling

>Following Pokemon and Battle Frontier were great features that could have made a comeback if Amie hadn't taken up development time. Amie is a waste.

Gen 5 didn't have Amie and it had no BF or following Pokemon, despite all the walking Pokemon sprites being in the game. What does Amie have to do with anything?

>>27187114
Too bad everyone on /vp/ has the same vapid, bitter and 2intellectual personality otherwise people would begin to see /vp/ as a board and not a person

I don't know about getting crucify, but I have a lot of unpopular ones.

>>27187618
>Gamefreaks don't know jackshit about game balancing.
Everyone can agree

>Despite that, Showdown are worse than VGC
Autists are vocal about this

>I wait for a hacked version of pokemon game, because it's more immersive and challenging.
Such is the case of every game, modified versions are always better

>Junichi Masuda doesn't care enough about the fans to make a game that we want.
The effort and appeal is there, it's just for the wrong target audience

>Making more than one version of the same fucking game is a shitty and greedy af business practice.
Agreed, because that money and effort could be put in to something fresh and innovative but we end up stuck with the same shit with a fresh coat of paint to hide the rust yet idiots like to vocalise their support and expectations for remakes

>Since gen 6, making more than 50 new pokemon per gen is retarded. Should only focus on small ammount of pokemon with high quaity design, instead of 150ish pokemon with meh design overall.
Definitely agree, but again Autists are vocal about 70 Pokemon memes


>GF have made too many redundant pokemon. Like no one is going to train Goldeen, psyduck, finneon, they'd rather train a fucking Magikarp.
There needs to be a certain amount of diversity to Pokemon, I think there's a nice balance of species so that's an unpopular one

>Pokemon game remakes are no better than game remasters that other company makes.
Disagree. I'd rank Pokemon remakes higher than the likes of upscaled HD graphics + DLC that should of been in the game to begin with

>>27187787
>Such is the case of every game, modified versions are always better
Not true, there are some mods that are worse, sometimes even on purpose (Kaizo, Terrywads and similar)

>>27187869
What I meant was, like the elder scroll series. We chose the best mods to personalise our experience making it a better game technically since it's our vision

>>27186796
Wow I was drooling on your dick until you brought up BW.

Fuck off nigger.

i believe all these

/vp/ should never discus anything related to the metagame as it's clear we know nothing about it with generally low elos and zero presence in any competitive community. We prove our Shittiness in every replay thread as we try to showcase our ebin rage quits in shitty nothing tries like randoms or AG.

Smogon isn't the best resource but it's a hell of a lot more credible than anything the majority of /vp/ could ever be.

gen 3 started the boring music train, gen 1 and 2 having amazing music comparably

It's the low rating players who complain or frequent showdown threads because high elo players are too busy being autistic and wanking off to their suspect threads on smogon. /vp/ is only really good for hype threads

>>27188034
I think you mean after gen 4, the Cynthia pre-battle music was the most hype shit not to mention the legendary themes

Hardest rival and champion, comfy AF, a team that wasn't plain as gen1&2, nor stupid as 3
It felt more like sequel to gen1 more than the Johtto part of gen2
Maybe I am biased because RSE pushed me away from the Franchise, but gen4 made me come back and even complete the pokedex when I was like 12

Oh, IV had some of the best character design IMO, and the postgame was pretty sweet.

I still disagree though. (Because of the polarizing Gen V, I loooove it)

>>27187162
>reddit is superior
I could have agree if you said some pokémon forum or smogon, but really reddit is even more shit when it comes to talk about pokémon. Literally people don't even know what EVs or IVs are, there.

>>27186796

>>Following Pokemon and Battle Frontier were great features that could have made a comeback if Amie hadn't taken up development time. Amie is a waste.

>could have made a comeback if Amie hadn't taken up development time

The mindset in general thinking that you would get something else if _____ didn't exist is a shitty one

Please stop having this

It's bad enough /v/ has this on a daily basis

>>27189350
if you have infinite time and people at your hands then yes it'd be a shitty mindset

I really like Chesnaught.

R/S/E has really shitty music. Almost as bad as B/W

I have never played B/W or B2/W2 because I have zero interest in any of the region's pokemon and don't give a shit about postgame content in most Pokemon games.

Mods.

Gen 3 had the worst music by far

Chespin is the best starter

Battle facilities suck because the enemies have perfect pokemon and stacked rng

All of the gen 1 starters are boring and bland

>>27187983
>>Gen5 had the best art direction so far
Completely agreed.

People who say Dragonite sucks because it doesn't look like Dragonair are actually retarded.

Mr. Mime, Magmortar, Keldeo and the Elemental Monkeys are not bad designs.

It added fuck all to the game other than general annoyance.
>Battle Frontier was a great feature.
I am not buying the next game if it doesn't have Battle Factory or an equivalent.
>Fairy was a step in the right direction in the interest of clearing up a nebulous type.
Correct.
>Beast type would have been great for normal type animals, too.
I agree there are too many normals, but they seem to design less and less of them with each gen. I don't think they need split further.
>Sound type would still be a good addition.
Incorrect.
>Steel should be super effective against Dragon.
Pre-Fairy? Absolutely. Now? Probably.
>Gen 5's graphics, sprites, and design motif were all ass.
You're worst opinion yet. Gen V's graphics were the highlight for me, and I fucking miss sprites.

The word "autism" gets thrown around a lot but I think it's appropriate here.

It's perfectly logical. That is why they are recycling all the old 3D models. What it would add to the game to have new models would not be an efficient use of time and money. Time and money they wisely spent on making the whole world full 3D non-chibi.

>>27193551
>Time and money they wisely spent on making the whole world full 3D non-chibi.
I agree on the rest of what you said, but the model style isn't such a big deal.

Following Pokémon is the most dumbest shit ever. I'm actually glad they took it away.

I fucking haye Amie. It's so pointless. Unless you want a Sylveon. Which is the reason Amie exists in the first place.

Gen 4 sucks ass. Lucario sucks ass. Lickilicky sucks ass. Mt. Coronet sucks ass. Galactic sucks ass. GTS sucks ass. Except for Yanmega. He is my nigga.

Magmar has got to be the WORST design for a Pokémon I have ever seen. It saddens me that Vanilluxe, something that is way more clever is getting shat on in favor of that monstrosity. Lickilicky is a close second. In fact, I think Samurott is really cool.

I use both Bulbapedia and Serebii. (One for game shit, the other for news)

I actually don't mind all of the normalfags. /pol/, /r9k/ and /soc/ can go fuck themeselves though.

ORAS was full of shit to do post-game. Too bad most of it was boring things we've already seen.

I never cared for the Pokémon Frontier and will never care.

Yes, these are my honest opinions. Go ahead, crucify me. I don't care.

>>27186796

I like contests.

I think EVs should be reworked so autists can't win this game.

Following and Frontier are good but if we had no Amie they wouldn't magically decide to put those in instead, instead we'd have something like the "talk with Pokemon" function they wanted or we'd just get the game a year and a half earlier

>>27196493

Gen 4 was trash. It's all trash. All of Gen 4's everything was trash. Nothing improved. It all went to shit then.

>>27196521
Yes but Yanmega though.
