I'm tired of all the memes on this board regarding which is the best gen or the most hated gen
>Emerald is the best game
>No, it's Platinum
>No, Platinum is slow
>/vp/ are the only ones that love gen5
>No, /vp/ hates it, it's just a vocal minority that likes it
>Johto sucks, horrible level curve
>But Johto has best mons and starters
>Genwun will always be the best
>After gen 6 the core series are made for casuals
etc.
Let's see which mainline game is /vp/'s champion
http://www.strawpoll.me/12391245
I personally like all of them except Gen 6
GOAT Tier
>Gen 2
>Gen 5
Good Tier
>Gen 1
>Gen 4
Bad Tier
>Gen 3
>Gen 6
Awful Tier
>Gen 6.5
>>31866297
We already made that poll.
I guess it was last month.
>People unironically voting for S/M
>>31866360
>unironically
No, they're just Redditors that flock to 4chan because they hear about its wicked edgy ironic humour that appeals to them so much and then try to fit in by acting like retards.
>>31866379
I voted SM and I'm nothing like that. It's just the first pokemon game that is comfortable playing, mainly because HMs gone.
>>31866379
Umm... sorry but that's wrong.
I voted SuMo and I've been on 4chan since 2015.
Never really been to Reddit either.
>Franchise Peak
B2/W2
>Top Tier - few flaws but great everything else
Plat (HM slaves are a bitch), HG/SS
>Good
Emerald (Unironically too much water), B/W (Mediocre type selection, particularly water types), FR/LG (Kanto is a pretty boring region t.b.h. and I personally really dislike the remixed music for whatever reason)
>Decent
S/M
>Outdated, close to no reason to play other than you can
R/B/Y, H/G/C R/S, D/P
>Bad
X/Y
>Worst
OR/AS.
Why would you separate third versions? Either put them in one, or get rid of the first two versions which everyone agrees are always inferior.
>>31866408
Pretty much. SM made some long-needed improvements to little things like that.
>>31866427
>SuMo
stop lying anon
>inb4 they used SuMo intentionally to get this response
>>31866345
>HG/SS Won
As it should be.
gen4 best
gen6 most hated
gen5 can suck it with it's shitmons,jarry graphic and shit meta
Crystal is the best, always will be for me
>>31866890
>all gen. 5 Pokemon are bad meme
ebin.
>>31866965
>B/W below X/Y
Apply yourself.
>>31866936
lol most of the designs are
>shitty gears
lol nice pokemon
>trashbag
lol nice pokemon
such bad designs yet some autist neckbeard on vp will defend them.
>>31866345
I missed that, at least we can see the results are surprisingly quite consistent
>>31866558
Doesn't make sense to me either, but "everyone agrees" is not valid on any context, ever. Let people who want to vote DP instead of Pt, just go ahead.
>>31866965
Move Platinum to the highest tier and it's correct.
Those who vote HG/SS as best game, what exactly do you see in it? Why is it so better than G/S/C? It wasn't bad, but I don't see the greatness... it is a remake after all
OH SHIT! B2/W2 IS TOP!
I knew you'd come through for me /vp/!
No other game in the series has the effort to detail, post game, range of different catchable Pokemon/legendaries, or fun of Pokemon Black 2 and White 2
>The beautiful overworld and spritework is the pinnacle of everything the games were building up to
>Seasons, Hidden Grottos
>PWT and Pokestar
>Best Dex yet
>Story is fun and actually continues and builds upon lore from the first
>All those catchable legendaries
>Unova is fun and based on the best area in the free world
Heartgold and Soul Silver are a close second. We will never again get games with the amount of sheer content and detail as these two ever again.
>>31866427
>since 2015.
Newfag.
>>31867557
>better graphics
>physical/ special split
>updated dex
>Kanto is harder (has a more "fixed" level curve)
>incorporates Chrystal's story
>can rematch gym leaders and Pokémon league
>safari zone
>battle frontier
However:
>The originals have better music
>>31867948
>They give you the gameboy sounds because they know
>>31867766
This is factual
I unironically voted for SM.
Ask me anything.
>>31866297
The best pokemon game is the mysterious pokemon green I was at target one time.
>>31866427
>been on 4chan since 2015
sorry anon but you proved him right unless you only meant /vp/
>>31866297
JOHTO FUCKING SUCKS
>>31868088
Yeah, after finishing up the whole game.
Should've been available from the start.
>>31866297
2 > 4 > 3 > 1 > 7 > 6 > 5
>>31866297
If the people here were actually old enough to have played since the beginning they would know that the pinnacle of the series was the GSC era.
The closest it has come to that time is when Platinum/HGSS were out.
>>31872848
I fall under that category but I don't see that being the pinnacle. That game seduces you with the extended postgame (which I don't agree to be considered postgame actually) but nothing else.
Also, if you select a best Pokemon game, it needs AT LEAST to be a game where abilities were implemented already. After that, all other games feel incomplete.
