>there are people on this board RIGHT NOW who have skipped entire generations of pokémon games and have no plans of ever playing them
>>31113204
My DS broke in 2011 and I got my 3DS in 2016, I don't care about Gen 5 and 6.
I've only palyed gen 4 using shitty Roms. Luckily the remakes are coming so I don't have to suffer through a downgraded engine
>there are people on this board RIGHT NOW who didn't start with gen 1
>>31113204
>Skipping generations
It literally doesn't get anymore casual than this, like why would someone like that be on this board?
Skipped none, but I don't feel like playing any of the Pokemon rangers game. They look garbage and drawing circles looks boring as hell.
>>31113408
PLAY THEM YOU KEK
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>31113204
i've only played gen 1 and gen 7 lol
>>31113204
I skipped 6 because I'm a cheapskate and don't want to buy a 3DS and Citra (emulator) only recently became good enough to support S/M, while oddly X/Y/ORAS still don't work without some sort of BIOS dump
>>31113408
Gen 5 is the best one, faggot.
>>31113453
That explains /vp/'s shit taste.
4 and 5
After taking Ruby out of my GBA and throwing it in the trash, I had no desire to play Pokemon until B/W. I don't think I missed much, although I might go for Storm Gold if the hacker finishes it.
>>31113204
I skipped 4 and 6.
I can kind of understand people who skipped Gen 6 if they couldn't afford a 3DS, but you have literally no excuse to skip any gen before that when there are good GB/GBC/GBA/DS emulators around.
>>31113204
>skipped gen 5
>started actually playing it recently
You know, it ain't so bad.
I was conditioned to believe gen 5 was garbo.
>>31113204
gen 5 is shit, piss off
Now that I think about it I've never finished a gen 1 or 2 game but I still played them as a kid so it's something.

>the last time we got a full roster of new pokemon
>gym leaders that actually do stuff
>rivals that aren't turbo bitches
How can anyone not like those things?
>>31113204
I skipped Gen 3 and 4 entirely, including OR/AS.
>>31113453
I've started with the anime on Gen I, but didn't care about the games until I played Ruby on emulator. My first cartridge game was SoulSilver which I still having.
>>31113204
I wish I skipped Gen. 6.
It's ok OP I only skipped gen 6
>>31113204
I just played platinum for the first time after skipping DPPt entirely.
It was really fun, kind of made me long for better days of pokemon now that I've come back to play my sun playthrough and it's easy as shit and the region feels so small.
I wish I had skipped 3 and 4. inb4 angry kids telling me to fuck myself
>>31113204
As far as Gen two goes, I've only played HeartGold.
>>31113453
>there are people right now in this thread, who didn't play Pokemon in the 90's
>>31113204
I played W2 till the part where you hop on the boat to defeat the "bad guys" and you have to get a secret code, I haven't bothered to finish it and the game has been in its case for 3 years now and I can tell you that..
I only skipped Yellow, Crystal, BW2 and ORAS. BW2 is the only one I regret skipping.
I skipped gen 6 because I don't like any of the Kalos starters and the chibi-like art style doesn't appeal to me.
>>31116796
>"bad guys"
I think the act of terrorism cements them as bad people
>>31113635
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
NO
>>31116891
I can honestly tell you I don't remember their motives or a single thing they did so I wouldn't know
My first generation was Pokemon go. Haha
>>31116900
I didnt skip a gen but I havent played Black or finish Moon yet
>>31116476
This
Sold my DS after Black, bought a 3DS and got Sun
Doubt I missed much, but who knows
I only got to play Emerald back in 2010 because my family was dirt poor to afford a cart during RSE's heyday
I almost skipped gen 6 because there were too few pokemon and was too appaled at the concept of megas at that time, then ORAS was announced.
ORAS was still a disappojnt ment though
>>31116667
>up bum no baby
got a little chuckle
>it's a thinly veiled genwar thread
I skipped gen 4, gen 5 and ORAS. Crystal and Emerald were my favourite games in the series but I could not summon the enthusiasm to play their remakes.
I was disinterested in the Black/White Series so i skipped a Gen, but now when i want to get a copy its hard to find.
you can't really blame them if its 1, 2 or 6
because remakes
and gen 6 is gen 6
>>31113453
>There are people here born after Pokémon debuted in the West
>>31113408
No problem then dood
i half skipped gen 2, i played my sisters copy of gold up until claire but couldnt save for some reason and never got further or to kanto. HG/SS is STILL expensive as hell and emulators arent as fun
>>31117164
"gen 5 is the best one" isn't an argument either
>>31113204
yes, 4 and 5. Tried playing them, but couldn't stand the old mechanics
>>31113465
I actually didn't expect the amount of casuals being this high. Why can't they fuck off and go to /v/ or something?
