>BW among the worst
Only if you don't like gen 5's native Pokemon designs. The plot is more memorable and better-written than BW2's. They're not as good, but I wouldn't call them skippable.

tired of this meme 2bh. Name EVEN ONE thing that makes BW1 bad.

GenV is only hated by genwunners.
BW has the best story/plot out of any Pokemon game thus far. A lot of shitposters will tell you otherwise, but that is objective fact.
BW2 also has a good story, but it is considered the best because of the SHEER AMOUNT of postgame content. More so than any other game.
A lot of people forget that BW (the first ones) also have a lot of postgame content (a third of the Unova region opens up). The same thing happens in BW2, but with old areas being accessible.
GenV is the best gen GF has madeuntil Sun/Moon come out

The shitty exp system coupled with the fact that Unovamons evolve at very high levels.

>shitty exp system
literally one of the best things out of GenV
And it's coming back in Sun/Moon according to images/videos.

Happens all the time.
BW is hype as fuck. Some weird Pokemon designs but the actual game progression and whatnot are amazing. IMO HGSS > FRLG > BW > BW2 = ORAS > DPP > XY

You don't miss out on anything if you skip BW2, BW, X and Y. They're goddamn devoid of postgame, and the story is lame a shit.

that thread is legendary
he rolled a fucking 1337
you'll miss part of the story and probably won't get most of the plot, since it's a direct sequel to BW, I'd recommend you to play BW before BW2, they're very different and really good games, the only thing I kinda dislike is the fact they have the same starters, and among the 3 unova starters I only like oshawott, but play BW, you'll notice how the games are linked to one another
>>28351475
Play BW1 and do that story link thing with BW2. It's worth it.

This, I hope it's redone if there's S2M2.
