>Disclaimer: This is my opinion. You don't have to reply, or agree in any way... However, I have an amazing sense of style, excellent taste, and a mind for the facts, so, while you may disagree, it's safe to say that my opinion is as close to fact as any subjective piece of literature can be, and it's probably a good idea to think on my words here today.

How can someone hate Gen 5 (Not just the monkeys), but like, or even love, the Popplio line? How can any of you even think Gen 7 was good? The Pokemon were ok to varying extents, with the exception of the water abomination, but the games were atrocious crimes against humanity. For $40 I could have played any number of other games. As far as I'm concerned, anyone who says Gen 7 was good, Popplio is good, or Gen 5 is bad, is a filthy casual, a normy, and has no right to be here. That is all.

>P.S. take this as you will, but please at least try to consider that this isn't a meme, pasta, or joke, and that I'm not a troll. I know no one will, but it's not like I particularly care.

Gen 7 was good, Popplio is good and Gen 5 also is pretty good. Why do people in /vp/ (I know this goes for everywhere on 4chan, but here is 10x worse) are so concerned with normies and casuals by the way? Is it because they are cringy or some stupid shit like that? What did they ever do to you?

I don't think you're a falseflagger because you hate Gen 7. Let's face it quite a handful of people here do, and there's valid reasons too. It's the fucking cringy disclaimer, P.S. and the fact you posted it soon after a thread shitting on Gen 5 fans by poor coincidence. Also Gen 5 is the root of plenty of the flaws of the gens that came after and you know it. Introducing over 150 new mons and the PWT don't change that.

Appeal to authority fallacy. You can't just be like "my opinion is substantiated on facts" but then not actually share what those facts are. If you let yourself use that kind of rhetoric, there's no way you can know your opinion is based in fact, no matter how knowledgeable you are.

>As far as I'm concerned, anyone who says Gen 7 was good, Popplio is good, or Gen 5 is bad, is a filthy casual, a normy, and has no right to be here.
I have a considerable multiplex of qualms with this opinion.
1) You've said nothing to defend Gen 5 except by saying Gen 7 is worse. Personally I dislike them both. Gen 6 was a huge upgrade to the technology of the main series, but other than that, it wasn't very good either. Gen 3 was decent-ish, Gen 4 was where things started getting a little silly, Gen 5 went completely off the rails, and the series has been shit ever since.
2) I'm not a casual gamer. On the contrary, I MAKE games. That's about as far afield of casual as you can get. But there's nothing wrong with being a casual gamer. Casuals aren't "filthy casuals," they're just casuals.
3) Same thing with conforming to social norms. People who choose to live out their lives conforming to social norms aren't "normies," they're just normal. Also, you shouldn't equate casuals to normal people. Not all casuals are normal people, and not all normal people are casuals. Some don't even game, and some are very involved in gaming but are also very involved in their ordinary and unremarkable lives.
4) Everyone has a right to be here until the mods say otherwise. Websites aren't democracies, they're totalitarian republics: places of discourse upheld purely as a service to the people, which may be voluntarily revoked if and ONLY IF said people act contrary to the will of the provider of said service, whose word is law. Your opinion has no bearing on others' rights.

I m neutral for popplio line. I was not excited at all but it's pokemon I can't be seriously mad about it.

Gen 5 is my favorite. I ve replayed it more times than I d like to admit. (B2W2 specifically)
I think they really took pokemon a meaningful step forward on gen five that wasn't on the aesthetic/new technology/3d side.

Are seriously telling me you would rather reuse the same kanto pokemon then try new pokemon? Every game should be like BW, new pokemon only and old ones in the post game.

I love johto, I seriously do, but it is shitty in a lot of ways. They were too scared it might not be the success that was kanto and were too safe.
>>
>>32110164
>Every game should be like BW
No, it should be like B2W2, a good half and half/slight new Pokemon bias. And no, before you make the same fucking projection everyone like you does, I don't cry about not using a team of specifically 6 Gen 1 Pokemon. The all new Pokemon thing was the only thing that made me able to stand BW actually, it's just that the idea reeks of "stop playing like how I don't want you to play". New Pokemon being more prominent than old Pokemon while not being the only thing there retains the flexibility while still clearly showing off the new options frequently.
>>
>>32110164
>Are seriously telling me you would rather reuse the same kanto pokemon then try new pokemon?
No, I'm telling you I'd rather have both than either. And that's what Gen 2 gives us. The generations that come after are too focused on the new Pokemon.

>wild pokemon after the 8th badge will still be around early-mid 20's
This is a good design choice. It makes you spend longer training them. Pokemon is at heart a calm and meditative game, you shouldn't always be in a rush to get to the next gym or beat the champion. What was the slogan again? "Gotta catch 'em all?"

>>32110145

Fine, I get you. Gen 5 did it best, new only in first game and a mix in sequel. I admit I was being a bit extteme but seeing people like that guy pisses me. They're the people that complain about pokemon without ever trying anything new, the people that use the same six pokemon every playthrough. Just hate those people.

How fucking retarded are you? Of fucking course they are, new pokemon are arguably the biggest reason to play a new gen. Having a balance of new and old is good but johto is not that. You seriously think people found pokemon like murkrow, slugma, dunsparce, heracross, and so many more without a guide? Hoenn did this good, mostly new with some old thrown in in case you want a favorite back.
>>
>>32110195
Just saying almost every GSC team feels at least 50% the same here, and who could blame people. This is the game where the level curve is it at its most annoying and Pokemon lose the opportunity to get great TM coverage compared to others for not having arms so there's not much to work with. I tried doing a playthrough without what I considered to be the 6/7 most commonly used mons in GSC ingame teams. Pretty much had to rely on the Gen 1 trade evos, and though I will say I had fun, it felt like most mons I'd want to use were garbage to the point using them wasn't fun. I mean of course that's not to say that's always the case, but it just goes to show that Johto's amount of fun options feels very cramped. I'd get your point on the low-leveled wilds if Pokegear rematches were more frequent or, preferably, there were a lot more optional areas with trainers to meet and battle. That way leveling your Pokemon would feel more like you're bonding with them in battle against other trainers rather than the chore of grinding down Raticate. Sorry if I did a shit job getting my point across cause I feel like I just typed an incoherent mess.

>>32110204
The reverse applies to me. People like you tend to get trigger-happy because of some people being sad they can't reuse maybe just one bro that might not even be from an earlier gen. I will say I'd still be okay if somehow they decided to do all new Pokemon again. Probopass has been in 4 games in a row now anyway, I think I can go a game or two without my nigga.
>>
>>32110227
>How fucking retarded are you? Of fucking course they are, new pokemon are arguably the biggest reason to play a new gen.
If you introduce new Pokemon, you have to keep the old ones. Otherwise, you're just sculpting the same world with different artwork. If you want to create the impression of a new world, you need the old world there to compare it to and intertwine it with.

>Having a balance of new and old is good but johto is not that. You seriously think people found pokemon like murkrow, slugma, dunsparce, heracross, and so many more without a guide?
Huh? You mean you didn't?
Do you mean to tell me you actually had trouble getting Pokemon such as Stantler, Ledyba, Aron, Swinub, Hitmontop, Togepi, Elekid, Phanpy, Houndour, Teddiursa, and Delibird?

>Hoenn did this good, mostly new with some old thrown in in case you want a favorite back.
Not enough old. They made the mistake of almost entirely replacing the old world with a new world that wasn't different enough to stand on its own as "new" in a profound way. They should have included more Gen 1 and/or 2 Pokemon, if you don't have something to compare it against then it just feels like the same shit with a new coat of paint.

I think I get what you're saying, but there's a sweet spot you're leaving out in-between "every good team feels at least 50% the same" and "every team with variety is shitty." The sweet spot is where you play through with the realization that there's no need to have the best team. I've actually found the game is more fun when I use the Pokemon I like and settle for the fact that they'll never be strong enough to OHKO everyone, because frankly I'd rather be challenged. But not so challenged that it becomes unplayable, which is why I don't use a team of six Sunkerns.
>>
>>32110269
So you think every gen needs to bring back enough kanto pokemon to not "replace the old world"? But if you bring kanto back every gen does it not get tiring? Also how would bringing more new pokemon then old "feel like the same shit with a new coat of paint"? Mayne if you playec the last game then you would know how the new ones differ.

Also on the issue of those pokemon if you honestly think the average player found most of those you're just an idiot. A majority of johto pokemon were either hidden in ridiculous spots, made kanto only, had a less then 15% chance to encounter, appeared at a specific time of day, or a combination of these. They were neglected since GF was probably nervouse that gen 2 wouldn't be the success that kanto was. That's somewhat understanable but it sucks.
>>
>>32110312
The closest thing that can be gotten to sweet spot as far I can see in GSC is having a couple of the mons on almost every team like Red Gyarados and Umbreon or something along with a weak link like Ariados or almost any Grass in the maingame snuggled in there. I've used less optimal options in single player before I mean I took a Nosepass to the E4 in Emerald a while back, but even something like that feels more fun than trying to use a good majority of the shitmons in GSC. I guess it could be argued that it makes team composition more important, but still.

>So you think every gen needs to bring back enough kanto pokemon to not "replace the old world"? But if you bring kanto back every gen does it not get tiring?
No, not Kanto Pokemon specifically, just previously established Pokemon in general. It would indeed get tiring if in every generation, you brought back the same old Pokemon.

>Also how would bringing more new pokemon then old "feel like the same shit with a new coat of paint"? Mayne if you playec the last game then you would know how the new ones differ.
It's exactly like if you played Legend of Zelda for the NES, you liked it, and they came out with Zelda II, but instead of being Adventure of Link, it was just Legend of Zelda again, except with an all-new overworld map and all-new dungeons. That's not worthy to be called a game in its own right. There are two directions you can go from there: you can make various overhauls and advancements to the fundamental format of the game, and/or you can tie it into the prequel to give a sense of continuity. The Zelda series usually goes for both, but the Pokemon series has carved out such a small and specific sort of genre for itself that it has to go for the latter technique, because any innovation it could seek through the prior technique would be either not enough to justify calling it a new game, or too much to justify still calling it Pokemon.

If this is enough to stop you from finding a Pokemon, I don't know what you think you're doing calling other people casuals; hate to break it to you, but you're clearly one yourself.

>>32110366
Okay, I really thought you meant you want the same kanto pokemon to appear every gen just to say "You do remember kanto exists right".

On the encounter thimg then whatever. The average player who is just playing to battle isn't going to walk in circle trying to encounter whatever pokemon. I play only to battle, collecting has never held appeal to me. If that makes me "casual" then whatever.

Wow. There are people who really feel this way?
>I play only to battle, collecting has never held appeal to me. If that makes me "casual" then whatever.
No, it certainly doesn't. It makes you "casual" with regard to collecting, but definitely not with regard to battling -- and, by extent, definitely not with regard to the larger game, because the larger game is about both. But still, it's just bizarre and fascinating to me that there are even people out there who like Pokemon but don't care about collecting.

To me, Pokemon is about the Pokemon. It's not a strategy game; it's not a collecting game; it's a virtual pet game with strategy and collecting as key elements. I see collecting Pokemon as a way to meet them, and battling and move customization as a way to grow closer to them and take good care of them. (I know they're just mindless pixels on a screen, but I do get quite attached to them anyway.)

I've always just taken it for granted that that was what Pokemon was about. I've never even considered that some people don't feel that way.

When I say battling I don't mean competetive. Competetive pokemon is garbage in both smogon and VGC. Pokemon is imbalanced and too RNG based, which is fine but not in competetive. What I mean is just havong fun battling. I mostly play more silly stuff like multis online with people around here. Most of my favorites are kind of shitty so I find fun ways to use them. Collecting is cool but feels pointless to me since most of the pokemon will do nothing but sit in my pc box.
>>
>>32110440
>Collecting is cool but feels pointless to me since most of the pokemon will do nothing but sit in my pc box.
This is fair but I guess that comes down to your style when it comes to training. I always make a point of using the weakest Pokemon in my party the most at any given time, and pride myself on the narrowness of the gap between my weakest and strongest party Pokemon. I don't mind pulling out a disproportionately weak Pokemon from my box and grinding it for awhile if it would confer me a type advantage in an upcoming battle or a good use for a TM or HM; in fact, I find it more rewarding to train weak Pokemon to accomplish tasks than to just use the ones I already know are capable.

Oh.
For some reason I assumed you meant single-player battling.
Probably because I don't play two-player or multiplayer games.
This is probably also why I think Crystal was the last good Pokemon game.
>>
>>32110414
Honestly? I admire your outlook on the series, but I don't think most people share this view of the game. It's... kind of a dated way to look at it.

That's not to say your view is wrong, just that when Pokemon first came out, Gotta Catch 'Em All was the catchphrase and it seemed actually attainable. The battle system was pretty poor, the story was lacking, but that didn't really matter because it was crazy fun to link cable up with a few buddies and try to get them all.

But there's a reason the catchphrase went away. There's so damn many of them. It's easy to say "fucking casuals are too impatient to just collect them like we always have", but get real here. There's 800+ of the damn things now. Can you do it? Yeah. But it's no stroll through Kanto like it used to be. It's a long haul stretch goal. Hell, SM doesn't even have a NatDex anymore, they seem to be sending the message that Gotta Catch 'Em All as we used to know it is dead. The catchphrase came back, but now it feels more like they're just accentuating how many monsters they are. Not "go get them all", but rather, "see how many there are? just fucking try".

The battle system became much more robust and claimed the spotlight. New types came in to balance the scene. Physical/Special split. New mechanics with hazards, weather, stage conditions, terrain. Double, Triple, Rotation (lol), Inverse (rip), Royale battles. To say the battle system isn't the forefront of the game, if not at least on par with the collection aspect, is disingenuous.

I can see why you're disappointed with later installments in various ways, but the short answer to why they make these design choices is because Pokemon simply isn't that kind of game anymore. Not in whole, at least. Is that a bad thing? Maybe. It's all subjective.

This is probably why I think Crystal was the last good Pokemon game. It was the last Pokemon game of the kind I wanted to play. People who get into Pokemon these days, they want to play the kind of Pokemon that's all about battling and doesn't have much to do with collecting anymore, so they look back on Crystal and don't think it was any good because that's not the kind of game they think of when they think Pokemon. It's not so much that Gens 1 and 2 were better or Gens 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 were better, but rather, between those two groups, there's an impenetrable fence of mutual betterness, where either side you're standing on looks like the better side because you value it more for what it is.

Except that just isn't true. Do you know how many times I've been in a game store and see a kid ask for a gen 1 or 2 game? Pokemon games are still highly valued today, copies of gen 1 and 2 games go for as much as sun and moon honestly.

And honestly, if crystal was the last good one to you why stick around here? Is there really that much for ypu here when you limit yourself?

Yes, exactly. This is why /vp/ is always such a bipolar shitstorm when it comes to games. Everyone holds all the games to different standards, usually the standard of the game that gave them the best experience. Crystal seems to have given you the best experience, so you hold all the games up to Crystal, and since the more recent titles don't resemble Crystal at all, you see flaws where other people see completely valid and coherent gameplay. Likewise all the people here giving you (You)s are probably holding Crystal up to something else and see everything you hold up about the game as crippling flaws. There's really no way to compromise other than simply saying we look for different things in what we play.

Sometimes I wonder if some of the people who are shunned as genwunners are actually people like you who just liked the games for reasons GF don't seem to embrace anymore.

Not OP, but do you even know how many kids have never even HEARD of these games? I'm willing to wager significantly more than any number of kids you've seen.

>Pokemon games are still highly valued today, copies of gen 1 and 2 games go for as much as sun and moon

There's demand for them, sure, but you also have to consider the vast differences in supply. Sun and Moon are expensive because they're new retail copies. Gens 1 and 2 are expensive because there's so little stock that the people who actually want a copy have to fight with their wallets to get it.

Maybe it's not so much a generational thing. But I do nonetheless maintain that there is a fundamental qualitative difference or genre split between Gens 1 and 2 and Gens 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, and personally I prefer the prior genre--although I do now acknowledge this as purely a matter of personal preference.

Actually I'm a newfag. I came here because I started playing Pokemon again the other day. Been playing a Crystal romhack that makes all 251 obtainable, with mythical Pokemon obtainable by story-related in-game sequences like ordinary legendaries. Even though I don't like most of the games, I DO like ALL of the mons, and this seems like a nice place to discuss them.

Disclaimer: This is not a pasta. If you think this is pasta, you can't read. You don't need to reply, but these are my actual thoughts.
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

/vp/ is illiterate. Completely and terribly illiterate. I don't mean spelling something incorrectly here or there, or not knowing a quadrisyllabic word. I mean that this board, centered around a game that touts itself as helping young children read, cannot even spell the names of the majority of the monsters that are its subject. People will spell names of Pokémon and characters incorrectly on a regular basis, and be unable to comprehend even slightly more advanced sentence structures. This board is filled with people whose intelligence, when measured on a metric of the ability to read and comprehend written language, would be far below the average in any first world country, and arguably 4chan as a whole. Why is this? Is the absurd nature of the Pokémon series affecting your ability to read? Perhaps because Pokémon attracts autists (colloquial jargon so adequate in this situation,) we have people who spend more time memorizing charts than how to properly read them. However, people with autism actually typically score higher on IQ tests and reading comprehension tests, so it doesn't make much sense to label that as the reason. I'm completely astounded by the collective lack of knowledge that this board displays.
