Doing petty mental gymnastics, huh? It's futile, because the damage is done. Players have realized that it just can't measure up to other generations, as a series is supposed to get BETTER with age, not worse. Pick up that phone, because reality is calling.

>>32244417
Nah, you are just pretending that what you believe is what everyone else believes, even if there's proof of the opposite. Not even talking about the quality of the game itself, just saying that calling SM anything but a success is incredibly foolish. The normies loved it.

>>32244039
Since Decidueye is the weakest alola starter, and doesn't excel much compared to the other two. It leaves me to believe that GF give Decidueye 70 speed on purpose just so they can have a stat to boost if it gets a Ash form.

Every generation does this, even your favorite one. Get over it.

So I think we can agree that in light of all that gen 7 is objectively better than gen 4 already, and we've only gotten the first installment.

Wasn't there, like, nothing in Gen 3? You're right about everything else, but this is the one thing I feel like we need citation needed.

>>32245507
I meant development on other characters. Example:Sophocles and Molayne, whos such as Mina, Ryuki, Kahili, Accerola, to name a few.
It's no coincidence that Gen 7 happened to be released in November during the 20th year. Given the flaws, it's obvious they straight pulled a "Sonic '06" on this one. When you hype up a pokémon to be the biggest and baddest in a grouped of powerful ones, and it turns out to not only be the worst in terms of stats, but also has the most weaknesses, you know you goofed.
It has the biggest number of slow pokémon, and come on, even my little brother who has Down Syndrome knows that Gen 1 pandering has never been as obnoxious in other games as it is here.

EAT SHIT

>>32250412
It is called "buyers remorse". It may sell because it's a Pokémon game, but it is gonna be discontinued at some point, with only remakes and spinoffs to be left in its wake. You're just in denial that it will become less popular just like Digimon. Oh, and for the record, Pokémon GO was a BIG reason why Gen 7 sold a lot, so it seems you are the shit eater here from brown nosing Game Freak so frequently.

>>32250471

>>32244039

>>32251546
Now, hold on there. I never said that I think little of Pokémon. In fact, I have still downright loved this ever since the '90s. However, I am NOT gonna believe that all things don't come to an end, be they good or bad, because that's just common sense. Plus, some threads are funny enough for me to actually enjoy. So, are we done now?

>>32244417

>inb4 people who hate sinnoh because you need HMs to navigate

Nobody ever said Pokemon would last forever. The issue was you claiming that it was on its deathbed right now in the present, when that clearly isn't the case. Make no mistake, Pokemon WILL die one day, but that won't be for awhile.

There's accepting the inevitable, then there's accepting it so much that you forget there's still time left.

>>32251617
>>32251724
...Although, people still make stories based on or set in ancient mythology from thousands of years ago. Maybe some things can last forever, or at least until the sun goes supernova.

>>32251724
Ok, apparently we are not done. Declining quality pretty much means dying. It will probably only squeeze out one or two more generations before biting the old bullet.

Gen 5, Gen 6, Gen 7. Terrible starters, Online functionality nerf, copypaste story plots, even though Gen 5 tackled he issue on whether or nt it was ethical to have a pokémon, they questioned it years too late, all while using pokémon to prove their point, making them hypocrites, ideas that seem like they were literally pulled out of their ass, like a fairy deer, Donald Trumpmon, or literally my mom's chandelier, overall level design, all comes together? the only thing that came together was a ruse to hype up ignorant people like you. Just stop, okay? These are things that anyone honest would tell you. You lost, no matter how you slice it.

You know what else has declining quality? Your arguments.

I'd be surprised if they made more and didn't make a pikachu one. It's the one that makes the most sense to get an ash form. Considering they had an episode where ash was turned into a pikachu it's not like it'd be hard to use that design for it.

>>32251985
Nope, sorry pal. You lost the instant you declared yourself the winner earlier. It's obvious how poorly you've been handling this whole "debate" – acting like your opinions are facts, moving the goalposts nonstop, and then getting all butthurt whenever someone calls you out on it. Don't try to deny it, it's obvious from how you respond.

Bitch and moan all you want, it's not going to change a thing. The series will continue as long as it continues to sell, that's just how capitalism works.

>>32252036
You act as if they will continue for 18 generations. So? what if I said I won? That's just a non-arguable fact, and you have not came to peace with it. Seeing how few new pokémon they pushed out after Gen 5, it's clear that even Game Freak is starting to get tired of doing this shit. Maybe that obnoxious Gen 1 pandering was a sign. Who knows? However, what I do know is that I presented an argument about quality, and once that dies out, it'll have to be spinoffs continuing it, pretty much proving the point that I was making since the beginning of all this. "B-but muh sales!" all you want, your argument has been rendered moot. Remember, quality>quantity. Fuck capitalism, buddy. That's how LIFE works.

>>32252107

I'm sure shitters said what he's sayin now for every generation since gen 2. Pokémon is at an all time high right now so it feels even more retarded of an argument. But then again, we'll have to wait and see how the next games do to know for sure.

If I can be perfectly frank, it'd probably be the final evolutionary stage of the single most popular starter of each generation, plus Lucario.

I'm not saying I want it myself, but that's most likely how gamefreak would do it.

I would actually like if Megas were retconned through this. Possibly even redesigned to be their true powered-up form instead of the apparent "corruption" Megas have become.

Stop kidding yourself, you delusional fuck. There's nothing different this time around. The series is not on some decline.

>>32254017
>every
Oh, boy. Here we go. Um, no. Gen 6 was unfinished with parts left out, certain mons left in the game's coding, etc. Gen 7 takes unfinished AND rushed to an unseen level in the franchise's history. Large amounts of inaccesible areas, for examle. As for bustedness, earlier gens, especially Game Boy era gens get a pass on this because of limited software, but on something as sophisticated as the 3DS is just sad, even for a handheld. Other games weren't rushed, but it's clear that Gen 7 was rushed because they wanted it to be released during their 20th year. However, they were unaware of the consequences this would bestow, so therefore, what we got was an unfinished product. Just like a certain game about a blue hedgehog back in 2006. I could provide more evidence that the series is starting to set sail, but I pretty much already have before in numerous posts. Don't try embarrasing yourself any further, because your autism is sickening. Thank you.

>>32255045
Holy shit dude you need a reality check so badly it hurts. I don't know why everyone in this thread keeps indulging your obvious inability to grasp even the simplest of concepts, like the difference between opinion and fact, what keeps a franchise successful (profit, since you haven't wrapped your head around it) and what constitutes supporting evidence. I'm only posting because I think it is important that you know, for the sake of your personal life, that you are in fact so much dumber than you think you are and likely dumber than at least 70% of the people you meet. You should assume that everyone you meet is unfathomably smarter than you, just to be safe. You should concede any and all arguments you enter for your own good, since you probably frequently hold to a horribly stupid belief in just about every aspect of your life and are clearly unable to gain any insight into this condition you seem to have.

>>32257574
Hoo, boy. If I were stupid, you would be much stupider. Grasp this reality: Quality wins. Every. Single. Time. Anyone that has a set of chromosomes can tell that the series is losing the luster it once had, and once Game Freak runs the idea train into the ground, they WILL pull the plug. That's how franchises work, regardless of sales. Denial will not get you anywhere, because common sense dictates that all things come to an end. ALL FRANCHISES DIE. Deal with it! If you can't do that, spend the rest of your life posting on Reddit, or something. Oh, and for the record, you might actually be much dumber than me, because I am a certified genius by state standards.

Michael Bay? Some people would rather commit suicide than to sell their souls to that demon. Probably why the new Power Rangers film is far away from his grasp. At least someone probably knew that he destroys childhoods like Robot Chicken. Twilight was the barrel, The Host was a bottom scrape. Madden, Battlefield, and Mass Effect are popular because of sales AND the fact that people like them. As for Sega? Two words: Sonic Boom. If you're aware how franchises work, why haven't you accepted that Pokémon's fate might be decided a lot sooner than you think? I love Pokémon, but even I see things for what they are instead of having false hope. I'll sing my praise however I want, because anybody else could come on this thread, and they already know what it is from the get go. You also forgot one more thing: Some people are set to be on projects, regardless of who likes it or not. It's called a "contract". You should look it up sometime. I don't give a fuck about the other ones you mentioned, so with that said, lay down, ok? You're probably drunk. Still, it's not my fault that you picked the wrong hombre to mess with. Just try learning from this experience and make better choices next time.

Let me recap all your arguments thus far:
>I don't like gens 5, 6 and 7, therefore they are objectively bad and anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong
>Quality is all that matters and sales mean nothing, despite all evidence to the contrary
>Pokemon is definitely going to die very soon, there is no possible way I'm wrong, you're just in denial
>You said something that contradicts my assertions, time to move the goalposts
>You're a dumb butt poopy head and your mom is fat
>Ha ha, I win! I'm such a master debater!

It's time to give up. You're not as smart as you think you are, and the only one in denial is you.

>>32258204

>>32258202
>dumb butt poopy head. Wow, what a retort!
We can have as many rematches as you want, because constantly breaking you over and over is never going to stop being fun. Sales kinda suck ass in comparison to the game itself. People know what they want, and if they're denied it, then there's less people who are interested.

>>32258202
I have stated that Pokémon GO bandwaggoned a lot of people that never played a Pokémon game in their life. The funny thing is, Gen 7 would have had a very high chance of selling less than it did if GO was released after Gen 7. To put it in a way you can understand:It's not Gen 7's credit, It's GO's. Please fuck off to Reddit.

>>32258194
I was stating that Sonic Boom is a flop. Everyone knows that by now. That franchise is seriously grasping for straws, kinda like how you are with your bullshit excuses.

>>32258234
assuming there is indeed a decline in quality, why do you assume there will be no quality increase in the next game? Pokemon games have always been inconsistent quality-wise, and considering the objective commercial success of SM and the resurgence of the franchise, anything could happen really. They're making money with it and they're not about to stop, so who's to say they won't make better games to maximize the profit?
Also, "people" don't know what the fuck they want. Every faggot out there wants something different and most of the times are terrible ideas.
I do have to give you credit for your commitment to baiting the thread.

>>32258254
Wow, two replies to the same post. I must have really hit a nerve with that one.

>>32258234
At least I've been keeping a mostly level head. I can tell from the grammar in your longer posts how angry you were when you wrote them. Your hands must have been shaking so hard. Like I said before, you're handling this really poorly. Any reasonable person would have just agreed to disagree by this point, but that would hurt your pride, wouldn't it?.

>>32258207
I can name franchises that have existed for over 90 years. If you want to get technical, I could even bring up ancient mythologies that are still relevant today. But, you'd just move the goalposts again, because God forbid the great certified genius lose an argument.

>>32258266
>grasping at straws
And now we're back to projection. Just stop, you look like an utter fool.

>>32258277
Dude. Give up, because you will never win against me. You already look like a bigger fool than I could ever make myself out to be. GO contributed to Gen 7's success, you can name 90 year old franchises if you want, but reboots don't count. Jeez you're so desperate to retort that you are once again trying to project your current feelings. That post I'm replying to? That's you. That's how you feel. You are just a sore loser, and you just want to keep trying to take it out on the person who keeps beating your ass, because you just don't lay down when you're supposed to, just like a bitch ass kid.

You just described yourself there.

Keep it up, kiddo. Once this thread is archived, this triumph of mine will be something to laugh at for years to come. Snitching on yourself is downright tragic.

>>32258328

In that last post, you were just whining that I wasn't going down like an enemy in a video game. Now you're declaring yourself the winner again, even though you've been more than proven wrong by this point.

You are right about one thing, though. People will be laughing at this for years to come.

>>32258357
He didn't say anything about the decline of the series though. I know you are shocked right now, but this is pathetic. Just let it go.

>>32258357

There's that ego we love so much. You're hopeless. I'll just leave you to continue making a jackass of yourself, so we can have even more lolz to look back on when this thread gets archived.

>>32258360
Look, the outcome has already been decidced ever since the start. You are just the saltiest fuck about me rubbing in the fact that you're gonna lose. You just don't know how bad you will, though. Are you still hung up on how it sold again? Something tells me you are. I'll remind you once more. GO did it. Gen 7 was nothing more than a car on the hype train.
>Admitting I was right
Don't even care what you say about this one. You just told on yourself. Again.

>>32258370
Hmmm, arguable.

>>32258402
GO doing it doesn't really mean much in relation to the decline of the series,you silly idiot. Whatever the reason is and whatever you personally believe on the quality of the games, the series has never been this popular.

Be honest fags, you honestly expect any pokemon to get a battle bond form other than pikachu or decidueye?

>>32258402
Nobody would complain about you declaring yourself the winner if it weren't so transparent that you just want everyone to shut up and stop disagreeing with you.

Funny that this is just like Tex from Red vs. Blue when she took on Wyoming, Maine, and York. Only real difference is I'm taking down more people.

>>32258469
Uh, you misread. GO is the only reason why its so popular. Gen 7 could not accomplish such a thing alone, thusforth meaning the core series is reaching its limit. Remakes and/or a spiritual successor would have to be a saving grace at this point. So with that said, GG to you. (8^D

>>32258526
At least reply once to everyone. I know it's kinda overwhelming when you are alone in all this, but still. And yeah, gen 7 completely capitalized Pokémon GO's success and the result is what we have now: the series has never been this popular before. I don't know how many times I have to state this, but it is what it is. The fact that it sold more than a game much closer to launch is also really telling: just look at how "badly" gen 5 did compared to gen 4 and then look how well gen 7 did compared to the already successful gen 6. And this is on a much less popular console than the DS. The series has been on a rise since gen 6, whever you like then games or not is an entirely different argument. Also, posting reaction pics is not gonna make you any less wrong, just letting you know.

>>32258545
Two people, at least. Your argument is now moot thanks to that. Gen 7 and Gen 6 are on the same damn console. If you wanted to compare, try matching it up with anything before Gen 6. Do your homework before posting.

>>32258580
Yeah, gen 6 is being surclassed even if closer to the console launch giving it a huge advantage and Gen 5 has already been surpassed even if it is on a much popular hardware. Gen 4 probably will be too soon enough. Are just misreading on purpose now?

>>32258586
Careful, or you're gonna piss off Sinnohfetuses browsing /vp/.

>>32258601
I mean, I can see a Sinnoh remake also selling incredibly well just like how ORAS did better than HGSS on a much less popular hardware. But I guess that's Pokémon GO's merit too, even if it didn't exist yet.

>>32258610
Wow, so snarky. Keep crying, newfag.

>>32258629
Oh, we reached this point. It was bound to happen sooner or later, I guess

>>32258636
Why can't you just admit that Pokémon GO was the reason why Gen 7 had the high ground, huh? Why cant you just do that? It's not even a surprise by now.

There once was an anon on /vp/
Who thought the new games were cheapy
He said something loaded
Then the others were goaded
And he became transparently weepy

He thought without a doubt he was right
But only paid half attention to the fight
Armed with subjectives
He thought were objective
He rode into the fray like a knight

Someone said an actual fact
Sir Anon didn’t really like that
The goalpost was moved
His argument proved
That he was incredibly cracked

His arguments began to repeat
His arguments began to repeat
He still thought they were true
But still said nothing new
His arguments began to repeat

His final arrow was shot
He lost the last weapon he brought
Desperate for victory
He resorted to mockery
But his words lacked any thought

Then he declared that he won
But it had only just barely begun
Couldn’t win his game
So he started to blame
Those who didn’t give in – everyone

But he couldn’t win his war
His attempts became such a bore
It goes without saying
He was the only one playing
And would continue to forevermore

>>32258652
Not only was it Pokemon GO, but everybody else enjoyed it. Besides you. I can tell you for a fact that not everybody on YouTube and other websites are Go casuals. People enjoy Pokemon Sun and Moon? Better tell them to fuck off because I don't like it because it feels rushed to ME, because of all those damn fucking cutscenes! (You're more impatient than Game Freak themselves, if they even are impatient) If you hate it, then don't touch on it and don't yell at others saying "SUN AND MOON ARE BAD GAMES AND UNFINISHED!!!" Pokemon GO was apart of Gen 7's success, but it wasn't the only reason. Hardcores and Casuals both enjoyed it. If the sales were mostly from Go fans, you DO realize that isn't related to the quality GF did themselves. :^)

>>32258681
I trust that you realize this counts as praise. You made an ass of yourself, in the form of poetry, this time. You shouldn't have engaged me to start with. Lay down, and hold your L.

>>32258714
Guys, the amount of salt in his posts is Incredible. The fact that he has been posting meme faces in literally every reply is a clear sign. He doesn't even try to argue anymore, he just keeps stating he's right and nothing else lol

>>32258714
You're salty for the fact you keep whining "POKEMON IS DEAD!!!" when nobody is listening to you and will keep taking the piss outta you. For one, the fact that the sales surpassed Gen 5 and 6 are true and you're just in denial about any source whatsoever, but you don't even know yourself. You can't judge whether it's higher or lower. And two, because of that, Pokemon will keep repeating Sun and Moon and there's nothing you can do, no matter how much you cry. They've already made two steps with Gen 5 and 6 to make you angry. "Z-Moves and Megas are gimmicks to keep the franchise alive!!1" Well, yes they are - But the thing is, they succeed in doing so. They will do more gimmicks to make you cry. Each Gen, you're gonna cry about more and more, to the point where you spend the time to say "you've won the argument" to boast yourself because you think only your opinion matters.

>>32258736

>>32258749
>admitting that I'm right about anything despite opposing me
Aaah, sweet high ground. Game Freak is literally struggling for new ideas when it comes to a pokémon's design. Also, I said "dying", as in "not dead yet". If Masuda didn't step down, I probably wouldn't have said a fucking thing. By all means, keep trying to revive your dead side of the conversation. It amuses me.

>>32258801
"Game Freak is literally struggling for new ideas when it comes to a pokémon's design."
Ah, I love the sweet scent of objective taste. Also, do you realize you didn't say anything else besides that and Masuda? Keep trying to revive your dead side of the argument. You suddenly switched to the designs of the Pokemon.
"Also, I said "dying", as in "not dead yet"."
With Sun & Moon's success, and the fact that you probably also hated Gen 5 and 6, and a cherry on top with the fact your reaction images are all Gen 1, it's safe to say they'll never change, and you'll hate every generation more, step by step. This is something I said previously in one of my posts, and you didn't address it. It seems about to "die" right now this instant in your eyes, Anon, and there's nothing you can do about it. There's nothing you can do about other people enjoying something. There's nothing you can do to change this. So, why complain? Why complain if nothing will change? You're not accomplishing anything by complaining. It only makes you a laughing stock.

You don't have any arguments. Also, you're the one who's being autistic here, buddy. You keep bashing people who don't have the same opinion as you. The series "dying for you" is bound to happen.

Also, I'm keeping an eye on you, since you're so dedicated to winning an internet argument.

I've already said everything I've needed to say. You could say the same, but I've said more. I'd be happy to repeat everything just to make you mad. I'll repeat everything for you to just throw insults at me.

>>32258920
Somehow, you confuse "objective taste" with facts, because Pokémon GO tributed a lot to Gen 7 having popularity, Gen 7 was definitely unfinished in relation to other installments, Ohmori is directing, oh, and even a well-selling franchise can die if they make a flop. It's called a "franchise killer". Look it up. All you saw was what you wanted to see, and not the underlying details. Jeez, you have a lot to learn, and little time to learn it.

"Gen 7 was definitely unfinished in relation to other installments, Ohmori is directing, oh, and even a well-selling franchise can die if they make a flop. It's called a "franchise killer"." Nobody else said the franchise is dying besides you and 10 other people.

People who say Sun and Moon are like Sonic 2006 were clearly not around when Sonic 2006 was being hyped up, and probably haven't played Sonic 2006.

Decidueye desvers it the most. GF intanentally gave him a low speed stat, an xxx even worse, they had no excuses for it. So I thing the only way to make Decidueye good. Is either by, swapping it's speed next gen or Ash-Decidueye, and ash has a rowlet, so that could b see a good start.
