I'm actually a big fan of Zinnia as a character, and I hat it whenever she has threads on this board because everyone seems to hate her.

Don't get me wrong, I can UNDERSTAND why people dislike her, it just makes me sad that nearly all of her threads on this board end up as a flame war and hate thread.

Although, surprisingly,I'm fine with her not being in Generations. Was hyped for episode nine, but Gabby and Ty were a pretty cool idea for an episode. More interesting then just relaying the Delta Episode

Fuck all legendary pokemon. I only want to fight the ones you took the time to breed yourself

B2W2 had a lot of content I hear, but I dropped the game because the story was pretty dull and the roadblocks were pretty annoying. I prefer in-game content and don't mind much about the post-game other than local/online battling.

If the only criticism someone can word out about a Pokemon design is ugly or something like that and nothing in detail or they use that buzzword enough times I immediately disregard their opinion.

Mimikyu is overrated but okay however I actually don't really like Wimpod's evo despite appreciating delivering on the badass Wimpod evo idea and find it even more overrated.

Hey /b/, I have a very serious problem. I’m fucking crying because of how stupid I am.

Okay, so my girlfriend was supposed to come over to my house today because I was going to go take her to a movie. She lives about 20 minutes away, and the movie we were supposed to see started at 4:15, which was in about 40 minutes. I figured “cool, I’ll just play Pokemon while I wait”.

So I’m playing Pokemon, and having a pretty damn good time. Anyway, she finally does show up, except she’s crying as she walks into my room. Instead of doing the right thing by comforting her, I half-focus on my game and her. She starts telling me her cat died, and just as she was getting into it, I get into a random encounter in my game.

A shiny pidgey. Holy shit. (For those of you who don’t know/care, shiny Pokemon have less than a 1/1,000 chance of appearing; 1/8192 to be exact.). I stare into my screen in amazement, yelling “holy shit, YES”, interrupting her mid-story. She sobs more, and she starts to yell “You don’t even fucking care! YOU JUST WANT TO PLAY YOUR FUCKING GAME!” I’m still looking at my screen, still focusing on catching my shiny Pidgey, when she walks over, and tosses the game against the wall. I run over and pick up my DS hoping that nothing has changed on screen, and quickly noticed that she broke it. My system and my shiny Pidgey, gone forever.

I start screaming every obscenity I know, and started flailing my arms around. I didn’t know she was behind me, and apparently I backhanded her in the face while I was being a dumbass and swinging my fists around. She yells out “FUCK YOU”, and runs out of my house in tears.

What have I done? I’ve fucked up so badly, and I need to know how to approach her. I don’t want a game of Pokemon to be responsible for ruining my best relationship ever. Help me, /b/.

I was posting lengthy writings earlier about how shitty the Delta Episode is. I actually reached an epiphany, and realized that Zinnia is a startlingly well-written character within the Pokemon universe, but for all the wrong reasons.
Every Dragon-type Trainer except the Hoenn E4 sailorman and maybe (MAYBE) Lance are all obnoxious, despicable cunts. Zinnia fits within this realm perfectly as a young heir to the lorekeeping of an entire tribe of cave-dwelling neanderthals who have failed to integrate into normal human society and are so anti-social that they aren't even acknowledged historically. She is actually perfectly acceptable within the Pokemon universe, and perhaps even common or "normal" for a Dragon Tamer. While I do not believe she is intentionally well-written or even like her, her entire existence makes absolute sense and I can personally excuse it.

I also believe she is better in OR over AS, simply because your rival mentions a "girl" climbing through their window and fucking them up. While it is obviously Zinnia after the fact, one might believe it is Courtney as she is hassling Wally in Petalburg for his keystone. Aqua Admin Matt is obviously not a girl, and if he assaulted your rival they wouldn't be griping about it to mommy.
Zinnia is also written in such a way that, while obnoxious, she is not totally hateable without some form of a replay and prior knowledge.

Fuck Feraligatr

I unironically like Alain

While I love Gen 5 as a whole, I absolutely hate the "enormous cities, super modern region" trend that it started. The routes in between towns and caves always felt very boxed in and short. I felt like I was walking around in someone's backyard rather than traveling the world. Speaking of traveling by foot, why are we walking? Kalos/Unova have cars and other modern technologies. Why aren't there roads between towns? Gen 1-4 had cities, but they always felt very small. The amount of advanced technology these regions had was questionable. Most of the towns felt very rural too. Walking makes sense.

I think Greninja is extremely ugly but Chesnaught > Greninja > Delphox

All of the Gen 5 starter's final evolutions are ugly too and Game Freak is well aware of that given none of Ash's starters fully evolved. The marketing department knows they're not marketable in the slightest. No one wants to buy merch of these guys. Same thing happened in Gen 4 with Piplup. It didn't evolve because its evolutions are ugly. Seriously, someone even said that in an interview. The same one with the "ash gets a new female partner because boys need eye candy" line

I think Niantic has no plans to reimplement a tracker. They removed the original one because they were afraid of legal problems and don't want to risk getting in trouble because of people trespassing/getting injured. They have the tracker working for San Francisco but they only did that so people don't *literally* show up at their office screaming at them. They can also claim they're rolling the tracker out the rest of the world even if they technically aren't. People can't get angry if they know the tracker is coming back, right? Right?

>>29515371
I like how Kanto has a lot of optional areas that you're allowed to explore on your own. No one tells you about the Power Plant, you're just supposed to discover it yourself by noticing there's something out of reach the first time you get to Rock Tunnel. When you're finished with Fuchsia City, your first instinct is to Surf south to keep progressing since you already visited the other surrounding routes. Maybe you'll check your town map and notice the next town to visit is Cinnabar Island but you might realize the path from Pallet to Cinnabar is shorter than the one you're currently taking.

Gen I gets shit on a lot but this is one thing I think it did very well. The independence is very refreshing.

HG/SS is overrated as fuck. It's good because the original games were pretty good. As a remake it's not that great. They spent way too much time adding gimmicks and side content and not enough time addressing the glaring issues the original Gold/Silver had.

Gen 5 is a really good gen overall. Yeah, Black/White were pretty rough around the edges, but BW2 more than redeemed it and is in my opinion the best entry in the series to date, with Platinum being about equal.

Sinnoh is the best region in the series. A good amount of varied landscapes, some interesting optional areas, great music, etc. Can't wait to go back someday.

>>29517022
>Mega evolution and Z moves were completely unnecessary and have damn near ruined the games. The ore and design around some of them is alright but most of them are arse. I'd much prefer getting legitimate evolutions to things like Mawile

agree about mega evolutions but not about z moves. Mega evolution ruined a lot of Pokemon imo since it basically means that those pokemon will never get an evolution in a later game. This isn't a big deal for 3 stage Pokemon but it's aggravating for ones like Arceus, Mawile, Banette.

I disagree about Z moves ruining the games that much. I think most people who enjoyed Pokemon as young kids have had the "my pokemon is about to faint and I'll lose this battle. I wish it could use up all its energy one last time and win like in the anime." Z moves are basically that imo. I don't think they'll break the metagame too much. They'll probably be overpowered as shit ingame but not nearly as broken as mega evolution

I hate that in ORAS they make a big deal out of everything in RS that was explained with a few lines of text. In RS you walk up to some guy and he tells you a little bit about Secret Bases, gives you the TM, and walks away. You feel compelled to try it out so you do. In ORAS you have to sit through that agonizingly long cutscene with the Flygon guy and his tutorial. The same thing happens with Lisia and the Pokemon Contests. Her character is not interesting in the slightest.

also fun fact. there's a cutscene with Lisia and Chaz where his Machoke brings "lunch" for himself and Lisia. Instead of making a model of Machoke holding a lunchbox or something that actually looks like food, they just use the model of Machoke holding a cardboard moving box from the beginning of the game. How fucking lazy

Gen 6 had awful starters and in general the Pokemon designs of the reason feel so bland and soulless. Obviously there are great designs like Noivern and Aegislash but overall the character design philosophy feels really artificial.

Gen 7 is the opposite. So many of the Pokemon feel unique and fresh, even the starters, which I consider to be the best trio in a long time.

And I really wish people would stop pretending Chesnaught is decent looking.

I hate the Gen 5 sprites with a passion, both overworld and battles. They're just a blocky and soulless mess and whatever immersion potential the games had is ruined completely by those. And those battle sprites, man. Makes Atati 2600 look good. The transition to 3D may come flawed but was one of the best things ever brought to the table.
XY may not feel like a complete game and there's no arguing that, but Kalos is the coziest region of all, though Alola is shaping up to outdo Kalos in that regard.

Why did you post a fact in an opinions thread?

>>29518128
The door is ajar.

Catching them all is a waste of time

Despite starting with Gen 1 in the 90s, Gen 5 is my favourite. I loved the locations, most of the Pokemon, the story, and how different it felt compared to previous games.

I really like all of Unova's starter evolutions, with Samurott being my favourite fully evolved starter and one of my favourite Pokemon period. I also like Emboar more than Blaziken and Infernape, and rarely pick Fire overall. But that's changing as Incineroar is great.

Chesnaught is one of my favourite Grass starters alongside (Mega) Sceptile. Lots of people hate this guy, but he's my favourite in Kalos.

I don't care that much for HGSS. The grinding problem is still there, and the lack of focus on Johto's Pokemon is still a glaring flaw. I also don't like what they did with the Kimono Girls, I felt they were more obnoxious than in the original games.

The Gen 1 pandering is by far my least favourite thing about the series lately.

> I absolutely hate the "enormous cities, super modern region" trend that it started
Unova is the only region like this. Kalos is one of the most rural regions in the games, as Lumiose is the only remotely urban place in Kalos. Kanto is the second most urban region and it's Gen 1.

Also, there are roads between 90% of Unova's towns.

Gen 5's overworld looks better than both Gen 6 games. It and HGSS has the best looking overworld.

>>29517298

Isn't this the unpopular opinions thread?

Following Pokemon in HGSS was a mistake. While I don't ever want to see it return, if it does, I hope it's optional.

Megas were a great concept but giving them to pokemon who didnt need them in terms of power or ability.

Gen 2 and 4's cross gen evolutions are fine. There are a few disappointing ones like Dusknoir but the majority of them were good and looked good.

Gen 3 almost made me walk away from Pokemon. Gen IV brought me back. That said, I fully admit the battles are too slow and that needs to be addressed in regards to potential remakes.

While I find Vaporeon useful in some competitive situations, the eeveelutions are uninteresting.

Gen V did great with bugs and ghosts. However, I see the games as a cheap attempt to recreate gen I magic with clear rip offs of the Kanto dex.

The only legendary pokemon I like is Articuno. The rest are unremarkable and forced.

I am open to trials and trial captains but the traditional gym system, battling a mono type specialist, is one of my favorite parts of the games.

I'm not bothered by smaller pokedexes like kalos and alola introduced. However, I hate the amount of legendary and mythical pokemon introduced.

The idea of a game with all regions/mmo is stupid. I want to explore, yes, but the ideas of the retard 12 year olds who push all region MMO have no place in a pokemon game.

I want another stadium game.

Smogon and VGC are equally flawed and the fanbases are equally cancerous.

I couldn't care less about the anime. If they wanna do soft reboots each gen, i dont give a fuck.

I dont see the appeal of N. Terribly forced. The talking to pokemon thing is absolutely autistic. Why is he popular? Vanilla plasma was a joke. Neo PLasma was good though.

I usually like the starters' first stage more than its last. so I usually don't evolve them fully and people call me "Ash" because of it

>>29524158
generally good opinions, though i dont get the issue with walking pokemon

>>29523883
ok

>>29525079
>though i dont get the issue with walking pokemon
For me it fell flat.
The player was one of very few NPC to keep a pokemon outside a pokeball. I don't know. It looked silly. Especially if your lead was something enormous. I think my biggest issue is that I feel like it was a cheap attempt to make the player more like Ash.

I felt too special snowflake.
Maybe not the best term but it felt forced, unnecessary, and offered no real value. But hey, to each their own. I can see the appeal to those who enjoy the feature. Just not for me.

>>29523883
Trips and your mother gets a hangnail

I hate gen5 for only one reason : the graphics. They are fucking disgusting, it burns my eyes. The pseudo 3D shit looks awfully awful, everything is fucking ugly in these games and I had a hard time finishing White.
That's why I prefer gen6.
Not sure this opinion is really unpopular or if it is unpopular among the vocal minority though...

>>29525164
But you literally are a special snowflake, there's no hiding it. The NPCs are already so different from the player there's no reason to get rid of the awesome walking feature. There were plenty of people with pokemon outside there balls and even a couple walked in circles, so I don't get what's so special about it

>>29525164
What if you give some Pokemon behind some NPC?

>>29525257
like it then, i dont care.
I dislike it.

Unpopular opinion thread? Yeah, I stated one. Chill the fuck out.

>>29525299
Like I said, you want it to be implemented again, fine. But dont force me to use it. I would want it to be optional.

It seems like a waste of a feature when there are plenty of other things that could be implemented or overhauled.

I think Kanto has the best structure, best music, best characters and best overall region design out of all of them (putting hardware limitations aside)

However, I think the Gen 1 Pokemon themselves are some of the worst out of all the generations.

>>29525164
I'd agree if it was another region, but Johto was redesigned to have plenty of trainers with pokemon outside their pokeballs.

I have never hated a Pokemon game, I have always had fun playing Pokemon from Red to Omega Ruby, sure I value some more than others, like I think Platinum is better than say Black and White or ORAS, but I've never not had fun playing Pokemon. I love Pokemon.

>>29515306
I'm not a big fan of the Sinnoh games, and I think they introduced some of the worst Pokémon that currently exist.

I hated Gen V when I first played it, but learned to love it after some time.

Gen III was shit and made HMs 10x more annoying than they had to be.

The battle sprites in Gen V are better than the current 3D models.

I want chibi sprites back.

I want optional legendaries like Ho-oh/Lugia in Gen II. It was amazing looking around dungeons to find some unknown legendary the end.

>>29517195
But megas suck because they were implemented poorly. I understand that they needed a few popular mons to get megas to market them, the problem is that they didn't fucking stop and gave a bunch of already powerfull mons unnecesary megas. I would rather they try again having learned from their mistakes, instead we get this dumb cutscene shit that absolutely nobody is going to use and doesn't have the potential to fix shit.

>>29515427
100% agree. What were they thinking when making the protagonists young as fuck again?

oh boy, here we go

Gen V is the best generation by far, best music, best mons, best story, best everything except region, johto is the best region

Gen 3 (RSE) is the worst, i feel like it's too boring, the region doesn't feel unique/memorable enough, the mons aren't that great, and team aqua and magma are shit, i don't get how anyone here can defend those teams, like fucking how.

the only Pokemon I've ever really disliked/thought were bad are lucario,nincada, and alolan persian, every other mon I've either felt neutral to, or I've absolutely loved it

people who use the words "furfag" and "waifumon" to define pokemon are they themselves those faggot, people with an actually fucking mind don't judge a Pokemon by how "sexy" it is, wtf, hating a Pokemon cause it looks feminine? what are you, 5?

i honesty don't understand the hate for these new starters, especially pramirine, or whatever it's fucking name is. they honestly are the most solid starters I've seen since 4, they look really good tbqh.

object mons are fine, i don't care much for them, but i think they're fine, and it really bugs me when /vp/ thinks themselves the authority on what a pokemon looks like, that's for GF to decide my dude, who are you to say "this isn't a pokemon" because it has clothes, or cause it looks mechanical? get over yourself.

The Crash Bandicoot content in the new skylanders looks like fun. I haven't played it, but it looks faithful to classic Crash gameplay.

well, counting mythicals and UBs, Gen 7 has around 10. Add in the other forms fro Zygarde and you have a dozen.

And 6 legendary/mythical pokemon in Kalos is 10% of the dex.

Too many.

I think male players who can't handle the idea of using an effeminate starter are way too sensitive and need to get over their feeble masculinity complex.

>>29533635
Agreed. Pokemon is great because every one is somebody's favorite, every design is divisive, opinions are diverse and it keeps things fun. In competitive the choices are so unbalanced those diverse opinions are cast aside for the same handful of mons and it takes away whats fun about the games.

>>29533741
I'm a woman and still don't want to use Primarina on my team. I prefer my Pokemon to look as gender neutral as possible. I haven't used a starter pokemon on my playthrough of a game in years

>>29533930
Its fine if you just don't like it, I'm not into it either. I'm talking specifically about the guys who are too self conscious to play as girls in any games and are for the same reason butthurt over Primarina being one of the three starters. The dudes who keep posting "male variants" and who are hoping she gets two versions for male/female.

It's just a bit silly.

Every Generation of Pokémon has improved on the previous. Let me explain.

I started in gen 1. Or rather, I eagerly anticipated gen 1. I saw previews for red and blue. I remember, even then, young as I was, that this was going to be something special. Something I would enjoy immensely. I was right, but what I didn't know, because I don't care, is that everyone else would too. Or so they claimed. Pokemania was a most interesting phenomenon. From my perspective, it was the first time that had liked something that later became cool. (Inb4 Hipster. It was the 90's.)

So Gold and Silver go to come out and I am pumped. 250 Pokémon? New region? Fuck yes. But something strange happened. The other "fans" didn't see it that way. They saw weird creatures that were, somehow, weirder than the weird creatures that were "popular". So they were shunned. I learned an important lesson, or perhaps reinforced one, that I must use my own judgement. Some things will stand the test of time, like Pokemon, while others will not, like Pokemania.

Gen 3 came, and Pokémon had not only gone out of the public eye, it had become passé. Again, I don't take popularity into account, but as a case study, it was interesting to see something that had been so acceptable become so derided.

But the series was evolving. Through the generations improvements were made. Types, added and balanced, many more move options, the special divide in gen 3 and the physical special split in gen 4, abilities and hold items adding complexity... more Pokémon doesn't mean the old ones go away. And with them come new type combinations, more ways to play, more strategy. It's easy to forget, and so many cry foul at them only adding ~75 new Pokémon. But for every thread complaining about it, there's one speculating on changes to the meta, what new thing is going to change the game forever? Pokemon is a living, ever-changing world. If that frightens you, stay mad, and keep fighting your stupid genwars.

>>29515342
And you're a disgusting prick

Chesnaught has a great design

>>29524485
I refuse to evolve my pikachu. Lightball makes it viable enough to even use online.
And while i like the animation for its Z-Move its going to be ultimately useless compared to using lightball

>>29515306
Pokéstar Studios was infinitely better than Contests, the Poké-athlon, etc.

>>29515306
Pokémon peaked in gen four

>>29515306
I dont like any of the gen one starters. They're just boring to me.

>>29515455
Not an unpopular opinion actually, unless you're talking about this contrarian shit show of a board

>>29515306
.

>>29533930
>am grill btw XD

Kill yourself

Unova has some of the worst and best designs in the series. Vanillite's line isn't even bad, either.

The sheer overexposure gen 1 has gotten the past several years has completely shut me off to that gen. It got old long ago.

I want a game based on the anime. Fights are a mix of real and turn based battling. Any Pokemon is viable as long as you put effort into it. Evolving a Pokemon sacrfices agility and nimbleness for power and defense.

It shouldn't replace the main series games but rather be a successful and popular sidegame. I think it would do well.

I agree. I didn't hate Zinnia as a character either. I mean, I never pay much attention to video game stories, so I don't know if she actually said anything actually that batshit insane. But as a character alone I felt Zinnia was pretty enjoyable.

I wish the mainline series was on home consoles instead and I hope that the main series moves to the Switch.

>>29515306
i love all gens i really loved how they have such history i love all of them even though i feel gen 5 did everything right to me..
torterra is worst starter.
im not a fag but, the female protags have so much better designs than the male ones.
i hated it when people hate pokemon just beacause is popular or "too feminine"
sinnoh is overrated.

>>29518729
>Fact
Nature is rife with faggotry

I like Incineroar

There are no bad regions

ORAS was good

Explorers is overrated

Smogon sucks

Unpopular opinions? I'll give it a whirl.

Gen 1 was a good start but mechanically the game was absolute trash.

I think remaking old games is nice, but in a lot of cases, utterly unnecessary and just an excuse to appeal to nostalgia.

Trainer customization was good but male trainers got shat on in terms of choices. That needs to chance.

I think the Battle Frontier, or at the least, the idea of facilities which push for alternative styles of play is probably the best sort of post-game one could have.

I love all the legendaries and mythics. I think the designs are rad and the concepts they embody are awesome as well.

I think Fire-Fighting is a perfectly fine starter combo and secretly wanted Incineroar to be that just to see the fandom implode with all it's unyielding rage.

On that note, the Grass Starters always seem to be incredibly underwhelming and awkward to use, while the Fire Starters have consistently (save Emboar) been solid choices.

Explorers of Sky is narratively my favorite Mystery Dungeon game. While Super MD took the best parts of the games and mashed them together, Sky overall felt like the biggest improvement on the formula.

I think Mystery Dungeon is sometimes even better than the mainline series.

I liked the idea of Episode Delta and how it introduced an iconic legendary. There's room for improvement but the concept is a sound one.

Nintendo needs to do more with it's online functionality. They keep doing these half-steps and half-measures like Dream World or the Wi-fi Plaza.

Oh thank fuck someone said it. I honestly do NOT understand why they're even a thing. "I want to make a game that's always been rather easy and was never meant to be super difficult into an artificially difficult challenge because boredom."

>>29539522
I just have a problem with releasing fainted Pokemon and claiming they're dead. "Oh, it promotes a closer bond with your Pokemon." My ass it does, soon as it faints it's dead to you! Don't pretend to care about your Pokemon if you're just going to throw them out like garbage the instant they disappoint you.

I think B2W2 were worse than their predecessors, mainly because having a new storyline over an old region didn't sit well with me; the world-building on the existing region felt stunted, thanks to the offscreen earthquake that took away old passageways to add new ones, in turn making the region feel unfamiliar and foreign while the game acts as if nothing happened. The change never gets addressed. Playing as a different protagonist with a new order of events than the first games only added to the issue.

Also, the fact that you can't complete the national pokedex despite having all four Gen V games really pissed me off.

>>29523924

Unova had a lot of optional areas and caves, its just that /vp/ blasted through the main story so they could get to the online battles.

A lot of /vp/ hark on how they'd love for the games to have places to explore, but then never mention places like Giant Chasm, Challenger's Cave or how the seasons opened new areas in certain routes and towns.

Why do you care that powerful mons got megas? Your shitmons weren't going to be able to face them even if they didn't.


Also for the thread's topic, HGSS are super fucking boring. For all the shit people give to DPP, BWBW2, XYORAS i never felt bored playing through them. I couldn't even reach 60 hours in HG despite my minimum being 300. Would never replay.

Kalos is the comfiest region

Ending to the delta episode is one of the top few hypest moments in pokemon

>>29543888
2/3 of yours are more popular than unpopular

Really Unpopular opinion here:

I like smaller pokedexes of 210- 260 rather than big pokedexes like Kalos,since new pokemon have more spoilight and the pokedex seems unique.

>>29544316
That isn't unpopular trough.

Pokemon sucks. Is that unpopular?

Although there were a few disappointments, Gen 6 is my favorite.
I kind of wished that they didn't heavily focus on designing Megas, when there could've been a lot of region-based mons like:
>Notre Dame Gargoyle pokemon line
>A Tarasque based pokemon line
>Matagot Pokemon
>Cheval Gauvin based pokemon line
>Beast of Gévaudan based pokemon line

Seriously, they based the region on a country thats heavy in Fairy Tale/Mythology lore, that its kind of a shame we only got 70+ mons from it.

I actually enjoy Francinefag's presence.
