I don't think you understood this post.

No, because 3S got appreciated more over time.

>>33063482
based on context of the other posts, I do believe you're correct.

No. 5th gen didn't have retarded depth that was later gutted. Or maybe it did, but I don't think so. Are you talking style, depth, or all of it?

Here's my reasoning:
>Both games criticized for having too many newcomers
>Both games thought of as trying to be a reboot to the series
>Both games criticized for the extremely offensive meta
>Both games put a lot of effort in animated sprites, only to be made obsolete in the next generation
>Both games have a very split fanbase, either it's loved and hailed as the best game in the series or it's hated

I know I had more but I'll write it later.

>Both villains's names start with G

>>33064660
Both games have my waifus Hilda and Ibuki in them

Point 4 is completely false for the Pokemon side, though.

I mean, there were a lot of Pokémon to animate. That's a lot of effort, like the outcome or not.
Plus the 5th gen sprite animations look good and most of them in general look completely fine, bad sprites like Articuno were the exception.
