>it's started already
Never change guys.

So?
XY hate is still pretty strong
can't wait for gen 7 to be praised in a few years
gen 6 and 7 introduced enough features to make the perfect pokemon game
and split said features between 3 games and filling the gaps with shit
I never agreed with the Zelda cycle being applied to Pokémon 2bh
Besides, I'm pretty sure all of these "gen 6 was the better than 7" threads, including this one, are by the same guy.
>>31577598
Only children and autism think Generation 6 is redeemable. No amount of time will change that.
>>31577598
The older it is, the more a game will be praised. Meleefags started praising Brawl once Sm4sh came out.
>>31577697
>Only children and autism
So 99% of what plays pokemon?
>>31577598
No one is calling them GOAT. They're better than SM though.
I liked both gen 6 and gen 7
>>31577685
>no postgame
nah, it would still be shit
I mean he's not wrong. XY doesn't deserve this hate
>>31577598
>There's people with different tastes how is that possible!
>>31577763
It sucks how B2W2 seemed to be a better anniversary celebration than SM, the actual ones are.
>>31577598
No one will call XY GOAT ever however SM's mediocrity has given people new appreciation.
>>31577722
checked
>>31577598
What do you expect? /vp/ loves hating current gen, regardless of how good or bad it is. Gen 6's flaws, mainly difficulty and bad characters, haven't gone away. It's just people have looked at the positives and realized that positives outnumber the negatives by a large amount.
GOATS are still Crystal/HGSS and BW2 to me, XY's personally behind them and has been for quite some time
>>31577827
That's because they were.
Pokedex had adequate balance of the gens.
PWT had all of the leaders and champs instead of just two from each gen.
References to every gen and no favoritism.
>>31577598
I've literally seen no one say they were amazing beyond obvious shitposters
>>31577827
That's because SuMo are the Sonic 06 of Pokemon. I have literally not seen anyone say anything positive about it after it came out. What a blunder.
>>31577598
>a point of view that has only arisen for shitposting purposes
>ignores the fact that XY is still shat on
>WOW GUIZ LOOK AT YOU FAGS PRAISING GEN 6
Also there's a pretty good chance you just capped your own post to flaunt your faulty predictions, way to fucking go Nostradamus.
>>31577827
Because they had more time for those. They already had a full region from BW, had to make no new Pokemon after BW, the soundtrack was mostly the same. Even with all of those, they took 2 fucking years to release BW2.
For SM, they had to make 3D models, not sprites, for all the humans and Pokemon, a 3D region, had to make an actual story with good characters, and add a shit ton of gimmicks. And they still had only 2 years.
Basically, there was no way BW2 wouldn't have more content than SM.
6th Gen is so vastly superior to 7th that it's not even funny.
>PSS is superior to Festival Plaza in every way
>Gen 6 transitions and animations are way smoother. Gen 7 feels extremely sluggish in comparison
>Battle animations are generally faster. Gen 7 animations are unnecessarily long
>EV training [in certain circumstances] takes longer in generation 7 than in does in generation 6 when comparing Hordes with SOS chaining.
>Levelling up Pokémon is ridiculous difficult in Gen 7. In Gen 6 it was way easier
>Generation 6 as a whole brought more to the competitive battling scene than generation 7
>Gen 6 Pokémon were overall better to use ingame as opposed to Gen 7 Pokémon, which were all slow even for non-competitive standards
Once the novelty of generation 7 wears out, that is, once you beat post-game, you end up wishing that Game Freak didn't remove the key features or optimisations from gen 6. Prove me wrong.
>>31578144
Shouldn't have shat it out after two years.
>>31577888
checked your checking
>>31578176
>Prove me wrong.Protip : we can't
>>31578176
What did you expect from the Sonic 06 of Pokemon? SuMo is literally going to make history books in how shitty it is after the novelty wears off, which it already is.
Get ready for a mass abandonment of this corpse of a series.
>>31578176
Well, of course. Gen 6 was the best generation by a large margin. It was a huge step up from the stagnation of 4 and 5.
>>31577598
Doubtful
>>31578292
I like it tbqh
>>31578390
Because you're a shill.
>>31578413
Nah it's just a fun game. Sorry for not overshooting my expectations like you did
XY...
>let me play with all my bros
>had easy breeding and training
>didn't force waifus and """plot"""
>was fun to replay
>had a high variety of pokemon
>easy to find new pokemon
I've never hated XY. One of the best gens, if not the best.
>>31578351
>>31577598
I'd rather play XY again than SM, but only if that's the alternative choice. 3DS era of Pokemon has been weak.
>>31578710
>3DS era of Pokemon has been weak.
This
>>31577901
Exactly the same thing that happened with Gen IV, then V, and now VI.
>>31577598
I made a bet with someone like that when I was a mere casual poster. Bet him a shiny wailord.
>>31578710
>tfw I can't go back to the static sprites of gen 3 and 4
I like SM a lot but I wish there was more to it. Short game.
>>31578289
>>31578292
>>31578351(You) jk, it's not wrong to hate sun and moon but comparing it to the worst modern video game ever is a bit too far and Gen 6 was boring as hell
>>31577722
What do you think the other 1% of pokemon players consist of?
>>31579124
GO enthusiasts
>>31577901
When hgss was released the general consensus was that it was a good, quality game.
The only people who hated it were newcucks that memed on and on about Gen one pandering which really didn't relate to the quality of the game itself and more to their shitty taste.
