Hordes, amount of available mons and high-level trainers, even though the Kalos E4 didn't have rematch teams?
>>31574139
I've always liked these games. They're not the best, but they were good. OR/AS too. I used two teams on both runs, set battle mode, and it was quite fun.

You mean season, and that's only because most seasons are rock bottom in quality to start with.
>>31574139
>Challenging game when exp share was off
I found it to be one of the easier ones while SM was kinda challenging
>Inverse, triple, and rotation battles all in one
Which were never used outside Battle Maison
>>31574420
Keep going, I haven't seen something better than SM yet
>>31574472
Because you have shit taste. How in the word can someone prefer sos over hordes?
>>31574139
>>Challenging game when exp share was off
What was challenging about it?
>challenging game with exp share off
Sun and Moon was slightly challenging even with exp share and becomes Perfect difficulty without it until you the large gap on Poni Island
>>31574451
>Which were never used outside Battle Maison
Inverse wasn't a maison option it was a specific battle at inver's house. There was also an area for it in ORAS and a competition based on it. Rotation and triples also had a playerbase online. Needless to say without it the variety takes a nosedive.
>>31574491
Hoards are shit if you don't have a move thst effects all opponents at once.

Which is why you carry a move that hits them all at once.
It's also better for hidden abilities mind.

Thanks for posting a pre-release screenshot you fucking idiot.

I also didn't notice nearly as many frame drops in X/Y (with the 3D off, of course.)
Why does Gamefreak think you need a gajillion polygons for shit? Especially with a filter on top of it. Cut that shit out, Japan. Diminishing returns, etc.

What exactly are you trying to say? You get z-moves way before megas.

Subjective

Top fucking kek

I'll give you that one, but the anime does not impact how good the game is.

Subjective. Didn't give a shit about them anyway.

Subjective

Wew lads. X and Y are still the worst
>>31574727
Yeah truly a disgusting game

Why did you even respond to his shit then? The majority of the shit he said WAS subjective.
>>31577237
>>Beautiful environments
>Top fucking kek
Still better than SM.
>>31577469
How so? SM's environment look like actual places instead of akwardly shaped square things.
>>31577388
Even RB looked way better
>>31577496
And they're bland as fuck, there is not a single interesting location in nature or architechture, Brooklet Hill and Aether Paradise are the closest to being so
>>31577524
Wouldn't spend my days in a shitty place like this.

Dafuck ?

>>31577469
I actually agree. B/W and X/Y have better looking places than S/M.
>>31574139
Don't forget how it's objectively better than DPPt and HGSS.

Literally the same as gyms, but with wild pokemon and usually involve more strategy than just using a super effective move to solo the totem mon.
>challenging game with exp share turned off
PFFFFFFFFFFF--no.
>best anime series
Nothing to do with the games. The fact that you had to include this in your argument to make your post look longer shows how deep you're grasping for positives.

Unlike in XY, where your ass was dirt cheap and would sit anywhere like a filthy whore, SM only lets you sit in REAL chairs.
>>31577615
Smelling beds is better.
>>31577665

You're not even trying.
>>31574139
>Challenging game when exp share was off

>>31577587
Probably the worst graphics of any Pokemon game.
>>31574139
>Beautiful environments

>Mega Evolutions were a blast
>>31577743
post more.
>>31577665
Typically if you have a SE move the totems will go out in two hits, if you use the super effective Z-Crystal you get right before every totem but the first then it's even easier, but if you do that you're a casual
>>31577743
Plain and ugly
XY are one of the best, if not the best games in the series. Who's with me?
>>31578004
Gameplay, mechanics and QoL wise, they're pretty good. Story and character wise, probably one of the worst.
>>31574139
>>the story doesn't force you to watch hour long cutscenes
Yeah but the story of SM is better, hands down
>>Mega Evolutions were a blast you got like 2 hours into the game not the end
Z-Moves are given to you literally before the first Trial
>>Had gyms; totems sucks ass
I'll give you that. I miss the Gym System.
>>Challenging game when exp share was off
SM actually can be, too, though that's difficult by Pokemon standards, and difficult by Pokemon standards isn't very difficult
>>Beautiful environments
SM is way prettier. And it doesn't restrict building placement and walking to a grid.
>>Best anime series hands down
For sure.
>>Inverse, triple, and rotation battles all in one
Inverse Battles were fun, triples were fun but never serious, and rotation battles sucked.
>>Kalos Pokemon had better designs than Alola mons
Subjective. Most of Alola's Pokemon are better, and the Alola Forms are great.
>>31577965
Look at this, it's almost as if they never tried
>>31578004I am. Had a ton of fun with those games.
>>31578128
The worst being probably how those games look at night.
>>31578004
It's true. The only people who disagree are sinnohfoeti who feel threatened by XY actually bothering to shake up the formula instead of just copypasting gen 4 mechanics like gen 5 did.
>>31574139
>the story doesn't force you to watch hour long cutscenes
Yes it does.
>Mega Evolutions were a blast you got like 2 hours into the game not the end
The gimmick was Z crystals this time, giving you Megas would be overkill
>Had gyms; totems sucks ass
Sure they do
>Challenging game when exp share was off
I think you got SM and XY confused there, XY was piss easy with Exp share off
>Beautiful environments
Fair enough
>Best anime series hands down
Irrelevant to the games, and SM is already looking superior
>Inverse, triple, and rotation battles all in one
I guess this is more subjective but I thought they were all shit
>Kalos Pokemon had better designs than Alola mons
They both had great designs, fuck off
>>31574653
They said this about XY too.
>>31578199
God the graphics look so bad that im going to have to replay it now just to see how bad it isPretty much liked Pokemon X and Y to be honest. I felt like it was much better then Pokemon S/M
>>31577660
What does that change? It's selling really well and is beloved by 90% of people thus proving the franchise isn't dead
>>31574472
"People" like you are what's killing this series.
Liking something just because it's newer, how disgusting.
>>31574139
Well let's see what we have here.
>the story doesn't force you to watch hour long cutscenes.
OK.
>Mega Evolutions were a blast you got like 2 hours into the game not the end.
I disagree, I found them to be pointless.
>Had gyms; totems sucks ass.
And what was wrong with Totem Pokemon?
>Challenging game when exp share was off.
I played the game without the exp share, still easy.
>Beautiful environments.
Fair enough.
>Best anime series hands down.
I disagree, enjoyed BW much more.
>inb4 Baiting.
>Inverse, triple, and rotation battles all in one.
All of which we're boring, imho.
>Kalos Pokemon had better designs than Alola mons.
In you're opinion.
Want me to continue?
Sure why not?
>>31581539

I was with you until you said that. 3/10 bait apply yourself next time.
>>31579449
>and SM is already looking superior
>anime SM
>looking superior
You do realize that the SM anime isn't being well-received here or even over on 2ch...right? It's shit. Little kiddies may like it just as much as the previous series because their standards are low and they're easily entertained, but once you get into ages 13 and up, people start to dislike it because it's got little going for it besides forced running-gag humor and slapstick.

Why do people say XY or SM are the worst anyway? DP are by far the worst to play.
>>31583972
The consensus is that Platinum was the hero who saved the day while XY and SM didn't had one.

Platinum is good but doesn't suddenly save DP from being weak.
>>31583980
Thanks but I already knew that.

Yeah, but Platinumfags will jump down your throat if you say anything negative about anything to do with Sinnoh.
They're more obnoxious than Unovabortions.
