Got this list so far. Help me add to it.

Removed in Gen 2
>Walking with Pikachu (Brought back in Gen 4 though, and vastly improved)

Removed in Gen 3
>Physical effect of the day/night cycle on overworld (Brought back in Gen 4)

Removed in Gen 4

Removed in Gen 5
>Walking with Pokemon
>Game Corner replacement
>Underground
>Ball Seals
>Secret Bases (They returned later in Gen 6 though, and improved)

Removed in Gen 6
>Difficulty Options
>Battle Frontier (Bit iffy, since Gen 5 also didn't exactly have a Frontier, but it still had two other non-Battle tower clone facilities in Black Tower/White Treehollow and the PWT, so I'll let it slide)
>Gym Leader rematches
>Seasons
Removed in Gen 7

In-game National Dex
>Dex Nav
>Horde Battles
>Triple and Rotation Battles
>Super Training
>Soaring
>O Powers
>Secret Bases

>>
>>31193153
the only thing I can think of that gen4 removed was the pokeblock minigame, and technically slot machines after HGSS.

SM fags will defend this.

Pokeblock minigame was replaced with a Poffin making minigame

HGSS actually had slots but they're available only in the Japanese version of the game.

They seem adamant in deleting Gen VI.

SM fags will also defend this.

>>31193267
Is Tauros faster? Also looks cooler apart from outfit and no unique bike music and provides better rock smash.
>>
>>31193267
Stoutland is the new bike
Tauros is for those who want to go extra fast
>>
>>31193267
well you have basically two different bikes in tauros and stoutland which is faster without the B Button. You also have a sea bike with sharpedo.
>>
>>31193292
Yes, if you press B, and Stoutland is bikespeed.
>>
>>31193267
While I miss bikes and hate the fat that those fat-fucks ride pokemon can't fit through certain places which mostly lead to an item, they got rid of HMs which is a pretty good thing imo.
>>
>>31193320
Sharpedo is great for eurobeat memes. But the surfing areas are just too small to really make use of it

defend this!

Gen VII would have been a more satisfying experience, at least for me, if they had expanded that Pumpkaboo/Gourgheist gimmick, making all Pokemon different depending of their size. What a waste.
>>
>>31193153
As much as I love gen 3, it also removed properly animated pokemon sprites. Gen 4 removing diving I guess is a thing.

so what's the point

Anon, are you saying you don't want to catch them all?

are you saying I can catch them all?

worst thing about gen 7 is that they removed grid-based movement imo.

FRLG habitat list (no I don't mean Unova's thing, that one is quite nifty but not really comfy)

Why the fuck it's limited to FRLG only, I have no clue.
>>
>>31193436
>you'll never have Crystal tier animations ever again
Crystal had the best animations in the series.

Now imagine they actually had better graphic capabilities for them.

Nice of you to discount your opinion without causing me to bother of having to do it for you.

The removal of secret bases is something I will never understand.

Not only does it add more customization and things to spend your money on, but it makes the world more explorable and gives more stuff to tuck away into secret corners of the map.
>>
>>31193153
>Contests in gen V, brought back in gen VI, albeit not really improved as I have heard, but removed again in VII

>Musicals in gen VI Almost nobody cares about this, though.

>Safari Zone in gen V. Or just VII if you count Friend Safari/ORAS Safari Zone as a Safari Zone

>Trainer rematches outside special places in gen V, brought back in VI but removed again in VII

>Pokétch in gen V

>Habitat List in gen IV, brought back in a different way in gen V but removed again in gen VI

>PokeBlock/Poffins in gen V, brought back in gen VI but removed again in gen VII

And as a minor thing I personally liked
>Fame Checker in gen IV
>>
>>31193213
Thank god, i can finally get a shiny charm now

FRLG let you rematch anyone IIRC. Why the fuck was this removed?

I assume they couldn't be bothered to recode it for every gen and add all the numerous assets required to decorate them.

They are a bunch of idiots

>removed in gen 3

>>
>>31194538
They really fucking are

When Johto was coming out they couldn't fit all of it onto a single game and went to Nintendo for help

Iwata fixed it to expand into ALL of Johto and left room for importing almost all
of Kanto

Doubt it since Johto in GSC and Kanto combined are the same size as one normal region
>>
>>31194538
No you're just upset a company functions like a company and doesn't waste tons of resources and thus money (and possibly then cutting other things) making an ultimately arbitrary feature.

this is more embrassing than 51% of dex being available in RS
>>
>>31194652
If you disregard the Island Scan Pokemon it's even worse.
>>
>>31194652
I don't know, I actually don't mind due to the last gen including all the mons and xy was a fucking mess.
That said, fuck 1% encounter rates.

>>
>>31194705
With the help of the dongle method, every Pokemon that wasn't a previous generation legendary or starter...or Tangela/Tangrowth and Tropius were available in DP alone.
>>
I hate how they removed unique gym themes in XY. It's not anywhere near a gamechanger but it gave gyms a unique flair that I liked a lot.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pTFLxeg6tg
>>
>>31194738
There's less and less music in the games lately. Every island except Melemele has only one route theme, and while several areas have day/night themes they also got rid of individual trainer encounter themes.
>>
>>31194613
There's nothing to doubt here. They can't code now and couldn't back then either. This is a well known story you know.
>>
>>31194619

Ok
>>
>>31194762
I dare you to go to the Altar and change worlds when it's not 6 o'clock and then immediately go to a cafe. Just when you think it can't get worse, it does.
>>
>>31194728
>only gen 8 and gen 1
Only looking at the melemele dex there's gen2 (ledyba, delibird, smeargle), gen3 (wingull, makuhita, spinda, finneon), gen4 (drifloon, sableye) and gen5 (rufflet, cottonee, roggenrola). That's just off the top of my head, I missed a few and didn't name entire lines as well as cross-gen evolves.
I dislike gen1 pandering as much as you do but that argument is just fucking stupid.

Only thing I ever complain about is the removal of difficulties.
>>
>>31194819
I'm sorry I mixed those two up (finneon is gen4 and sableye is gen3). As I said, it's just off the top of my head. Point still stands.
>>
>>31194729

> Tangela/Tangrowth and Tropius

What happened with this guys? I dont Remember
>>
>>31194862
Somebody must have fucked up when programming the Great Marsh.
>>
>>31194862
They weren't catchable in the game at all. You actually had to transfer to get a newly introduced Pokemon.
>>
>>31194762
It's true that they can't code, but the story about them not being able to fit it into the game and going to Iwata for help is an assumption with no proof
>>
>>31194221
I despise people like you
>>
>>31194907
It's a pretty common story dude

I have no idea where you got "When Johto was coming out they couldn't fit all of it onto a single game and went to Nintendo for help and Iwata fixed it to expand into ALL of Johto and left room for importing almost all of Kanto" from that.
>>
>>31193213
The National Dex wasn't unlocked in some games until the very end. They probably wanted to pull a Ruby and Sapphire and make it impossible to catch them all until the end of the generation. Then they remembered bank was a thing and decided to dump the national dex.
