I want to hear /vp/'s opinion of this.
Pic unrelated.

Sun/Moon. Before that, OR/AS. Before that, X/Y. Before that, B/W2. Before that, B/W. And so on.
They're all varying degrees of "good," but they're all "good." To think otherwise is to have no perspective on what overall is a "good" video game.

I like you. You're sensible.
How about this: when was the last time a Pokemon game was great?
Depends on if you count "passable". If so then every game in the series except DP and XY can qualify.
>>32114730
Kinda curious what you mean by that
>>32114675
Black2/White2, Platinum before that and before that Emerald. Well and everything else is basic, mediocre, bad or dogshit.

I mean exactly what I said. They're all good games. Some are better than others. They all have flaws. But they're all objectively "good" games at minimum. If you think that any are bad, you have a warped sense of what a "bad" video game truly is.
>>32114675
Black and White was okay.
>>32114730
This right here.
I don't have to act contrarian or anything, I have always genuinely liked this series and still do

Fpbp
>>32114730
Agreed

BW1 and SM are not good, they're not broken unplayable messes, but they're not good

XY are fucking bad. Im not meming either, and I generally like everything in Pokemon. But XY has shit pacing, a shit story, shit characters, shit difficulty and a shit region. it was the first time I disliked a pokemon game and was the first time I was fine with giving away a pokemon game.
Other than that, I agree, even if SM and FRLG are mediocre
