gen 3 has by far the best starters, it is the only gen where I like all starters and it is actually hard to decide and not like "oh well, I pick the least worse one"

i agree that gen 5 ae the worst together with 7, but gen 1,2 are the best? fucking kek, kys genwunning GO fag.

Wrong, gen 5 has always had the worst starters. I agree that gen 7 is too high on his list though.

But that's not possible, because gen 2 and 5 exist, and those are objectively the worst. Anyone with an ounce of design sense can easily break down the flaws for you.

internally ordered based on preference

Only reason gen 7 starters aren't in the highest tier is because of Incineroar, I hate it on both rational and irrational levels.

when did not liking gen 1 become contrarian

i mean its been mediocre since gen 3 and only shit on since then as being a restrictive under-designed game generation

there was almost no game balance and having to have more than 1 hm slave makes for a poor team, not to mention only having 1 tm per game unless you could buy it at the casino/store

plus the designs are so bland and generic, with nothing special or unique to most Pokemon outside of what animal/ thing they are.

>>33100078
and so your nostalgia-goggles blind you to good design

You didn't answer why it would be unusual for someone to no longer watch the anime.

Pathetic.

You don't get to speak about good design when you're sitting there making a fool out of yourself by thinking gen 5 starters are anything but shit looking.
The gen 1 starters are far better designed.

>Not liking the 1st stages for Gen 5 starters

C'mon, Snivy and Tepig are great and Oshawott is better than Chimchar and Fennekin at least. It's around Piplup, Popplio, or Chespin level.

None of the first stages are even that bad desu, just the evolutions.
>>
>Great tier
Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Cyndaquil, Turtwig, Piplup, Snivy

Mudkip, Oshawatt, Froakie, Rowlet, Fennekin, Torchic

Chikorita, Totodile, Treecko, Litten

Tepig, Chespin, Popplio, Chimchar

i never said it was unusual, merely suggesting that your experiences with pokemon outside of the games, in the form of interactions with friends and televised media, may infact bias or slightly alter your opinion in a way that is not solely based off design and rather opinions of a genwunner

>>33100126
i was tackling two arguments at once, if you were paying attention

i first addressed why gen 1 was not /thebest/ generation

than i addressed their generic design, but you may have glossed over that so i will restate

their designs are generic simplistic designs that are literally just reskins of things that exist like tauros or muk or magnemite or oddish or have a basic design added to them like polywhirl or rapidash or blastoise

like blastoise is literally a turtle with 2 small pieces of pipe stuck in the shell, g e n e r i c

>>33100152
this guy gets it
>>
>>33100204
>i was tackling two arguments at once, if you were paying attention
You replied to me, and I was only referring to designs. Nothing in my post even came close to implying that I like gen 1s gameplay.

>their designs are generic simplistic designs that are literally just reskins of things that exist like tauros or muk or magnemite or oddish or have a basic design added to them like polywhirl or rapidash or blastoise
And that's why they're so good. They're basic and believable. Meanwhile icecream cones and walking garbage look like shit, just like the ugly as fuck gen 5 starters.

I-Is this... c-could it actually be... g-good taste? Does such a thing really exist or are my eyes blinding me?

muk is a pile of grime
and magnemite is a circle with magnets
voltorb is literally a sphere, like lazy af there
and the diglett line is brown cylanders with noses and eyes, add more for evolution
geodude is a floating rock with arms

yet you complain about icecream cones and garbage?

and on the point of basic and believable, why even like pokemon in the first place? they have magic powers, evolve and grow at an unrealistic pace while somehow having a level cap that limits their growth.

they're different and powerful creatures from a alternate dimensions, i expect them to look different. play zoo tycoon if you like realism
>>
>>33099717
There's literally nothing wrong with Emboar other than it being the 3rd fire/fighting starter in a row

I'm not seeing the problem here. They're all better than ice cream, garbage, chandeliers, gears, my moms shit breed of dog, and the countless designs that have retarded derpy looking faces to appeal to children.

>>33099690
Gen V starters are among the most consistent.
Kanto were all good.
Johto were all shit.
Unova were all meh.
Every other gen had fluctuating quality between them.
>>
But..... Serperior is sexy!
>>
Gen 4 starters should be higher imo
>>
Okay, let's get this straight.
Gen 1: Good. Kind of boring. "Just gets bigger." I'd say 6/10
Gen 2: Once again, just good. A bit more variety in the species of them, but we're still getting that "just gets bigger" vibe. 5/10
Gen 3: Okay so Torchic's evo is great, an actual evolution that carries themes and develops them. Mudkip and Treecko are both kind of...eh. 6/10
Gen 4: LOVE Empoleon, who cares about the other two. I do like that they're based on more specific animals (like Gen 3 was), so I'd give them a 5/10
Gen 5: what the fffuc k like what the fuc k happened. I like that they're based on specific animals and not just "they are dinosaurs," but good lord...I feel like the final designs are really, just...a lot. Snivy's final evo is just....I HATE the yellow design on it, it's too much. Emboar's and Samurott's too. Just bad. I'd give these a 2/10.
Gen 6: LOOOVE the concept of like, a mage, a knight, and a thief. It's so cool. The designs of Delphox and Greninja are AWESOME, but Chesnaught's kind of sucks. Very random. I'll give them an 8/10.
Gen 7: Perfect in every single way, 10/10. Went to a place I super didn't expect at all, but in an awesome way. An archer, wrestler, and siren were really interesting places to go, and I feel like if I could say something bad about them, it would be that Incineroar is a little over designed, but I don't hold it at a fault. Decidueye is GENIUS. The design and typing are so fucking good. Primarina's is too. We've needed a mermaid pokemon for a while and it was done SO well. 10/10.
