That's why they invented Masterball, for hopeless microcephalus like you.
And don't let me start about the lies (like half-region to make ''artificial lenght'' but they didn't think that that was literally added to make for something the player can explore after the league and not locked on purpose till late game, indeed those area are useless to the game, they could have not make anything at all like they (don't) do with newer titles, but instead they cared a bit to do such.

>If a pokemon has a speed greater than 1809, it will ignore the effects of trick room
this sounds rather hard to achieve without actually trying.
Other than the bugged N's Zoroark, a lot of those problems that are buggs, which i wouldn't really list as problems of a generation, also finding an optional minigame boring feels like it's also in the list just to make it lengthier.

>Sequels were made in an attempt to make up for BW's poor sales, instead of making a Gray version to fix it's flaws
What?...

>These new pokemon were so negatively received that gamefreak had to backpedal and make old ones available in the sequels
Were they really?, and i highly doubt that was the motive they include old pokemon in BW2 main story, rather than just including them to make the game feel different and fresher than BW

That's fucking awesome. Can you imagine a battle mode like that? Three pokemon with Assist and three eggs in the party. You know what's in each egg but you don't know what move you'll end up using. It'll be RNG as fuck but it seems like it would be fun. Almost like Metronome battles, but with a bit more predictability.

What's hilarious is that gen 4 is probably the best in terms of mechanical improvements to the game, yet Diamond and Pearl are probably the two worst Pokemon games ever made. Not sure how that happened.

Doesn't help how laggy the battles are. People forget just how fucking slow it is. For instance I've been lurking nds-bootstrap and there's a lot of false reports about the game lagging hard (it does on occasion) but most of the time it's because the game itself really was that slow.

the entire point of the image macro is to highlight that the gen 1 games are filled with glitches, bugs, mechanical errors, and is basically a generation held together by duct tape.

every iteration of macros after has some shit like "story ruined by x", bad rival character" or "lacking postgame" that has nothing to do with a game's mechanical problems.

THANK YOU!

The point of the first one was not "this is what I dislike about that Gen" like every other version mostly does.

When your problems with a Gen are only how things are designed (story/map/characters/e.t.c) rather than how they dont work as intended then they are not part of that discussion.

there is still a fair amount of info in there that's true. There are severe flaws with parts of the story of the game that are still in their right flaws.

You know about him before Nebby gets taken and you know that Mohn disappeared and only left behind his work.

No you find out in the dimensional lab with burnet. A guy there tells you.

"What are you talking about, he's at poke pelago"

I appreciate the lore they added, but try not to add it in such an idiotic way. Maybe have someone else run poke pelago and after you become champion you're told to give your Pokemon a rest at poke pelago, the person says maybe it's time you meet the man in charge. You meet Mohn, have normal brain function and realize he's lillie's dad, take him back to aether. "Omg no way he's been here all along" goes with Lillie and lusamine to kanto, gladion stays behind to run aether

OP pic might be bait, but there are some genuine points to make against the Gen V games. Plenty of problems the later games have also exist in Gen V or started there, either in BW, BW2 or both games.
>narrative-driven game that affects exploration
First starting in BW, the games have a much heavier focus on Hilda (or Hilbert) vs. N and their clashing worldviews. The games have been more railroaded than ever before, despite Pokemon being already pretty linear. Most of the time, you are unable to progress until you complete the immediate task at hand, and non-plot locations (Eastern Unova) is locked out until the postgame. BW2 continues this trend, locking out all BW1 locations that have no plot relevance.
>nostalgia pandering
Although BW follows some older gen Pokemon roles, it strayed as much as possible from the past games; fitting for a game that doesn't take place in Japan. BW2 backpedals to an insulting degree. About 100 older gen Pokemon were added into the Unova region just because (and even the ones that did exist in Unova in BW1, like Swellow, were removed for no reason) and plenty of other things were added to make more references to past gens. Sabrina was slapped into Pokestars, and the entirety of PWT is praised for bringing back past characters, when from a gameplay standpoint it is less unique than both Emerald and Platinum/HGSS's Battle Frontier.
>opponents' teams were made easier
A trend BW started, gym leaders now cap at 3 Pokemon, and the Elite Four now use 4 Pokemon. BW2 continues this trend, but it can theoretically be fixed through Challenge Mode. Actually being able to use the mode before beating the game is a challenge in itself, and most people are likely to experience the normal teams unless they cheat.
>your Pokemon can now be overleveled because of item handouts
No doubt, Gen VI's Exp. Share is overpowered. However, Gen V in comparison to the past games has also become much easier. You are given a Lucky Egg in both BW and BW2's story.

>>
>>33431720
>lack of postgame
BW's postgame is incredibly barebones. In these games, you're able to explore the non-plot related locations that were locked behind for no reason, and capture all the Seven Sages. This quest is about on par with the other two Looker Quests in XY and SM, where you have to go to specific locations to do a certain task, then go to another one and repeat. BW2 adds plenty of side content to keep things unique. However, the PWT is less unique than other third version games' facilities (Emerald and Platinum's Battle Frontiers) and slides by with nostalgia pandering. There is no streak in the PWT, either. There are no standard Gym Leader rematches, either. Those were removed in favor of the Unova Leaders PWT. Memory Link exclusive battles with Cheren and Bianca are one-time only, even though Platinum Battleground fights and HGSS Red, Silver and Dojo fights are repeatable.
>bad plot
BW1's plot is very debatable, some people love it, while others hate it. BW2's, on the other hand, is a step down in every way, and is horribly handled. Team Plasma has been brought back, despite Hilda (or Hilbert) arresting all Seven Sages to prevent the group from ever being reformed. (The prompt to do this quest was not even optional, as soon as you leave your room after defeating N, Looker tasks you with catching them.) Plenty of exposition is made for one-note characters, or characters that make no impact later on in the story. Pop Roxie's storyline shows up simply to introduce Pokestars Studio and force a tutorial onto you, and Hugh shows up at every opportunity just to get back at Team Plasma, with his development arc comes out of nowhere despite him hating on them the entire game.

While not horrible games, BW and BW2 suffer from very similar problems that the "modern/3D" Pokemon games do. It'd be unfair to ignore these issues or handwave it by simply saying "It was fresh/good in BW" only to use them as negative points in the later games.
>>
>>33431493
Like I said, I LOVE the fact they put him in, perpetuating the "goes in wormhole comes out confused and doesn't know anything" it helps add to the fact oras was probs after sm and looker went through a wormhole.

But they could've been smarter with it. An 11 year should've been able to speak up like "uh the guy who disappeared is on an island" and bam story ends. Gladion makes it clear that lusamine was doing this because Mohn was gone. Bring him back and the UBs probs wouldn't have had to be dragged in.

Well maybe, but I don't think lusamine would've been power crazed by it. Shed probably be torn that he doesn't remember her or his work and shed open up the wormholes to try and get him to remember. She kidnapped him into ultra space determined to make him remember using nihilego's toxins.

That mightve been a better story desu senpai baka

For that to work, SM and ORAS should be on different universes and SM and RSE can't be compatible due SM having megas. Not to mention that Wally is just a minor issue if ORAS happens before SM but a complete plothole if it happens before.

I'm only talking about the PWT. But the fact that I forgot Sabrina was even in Pokestar for a sec proves that the pandering wasn't as intrusive as the ones in XY/SM.

This. PWT is not only optional, it says "Thanks for being with us".

It is, but she shows up in an optional feature in a way that "progresses" her character(or GF thinks it does at least, I'd argue that but that'd be besides the point, she at least did change) not a forced retread. SM and XY also had Kanto pandering that's good in isolation.

You didn't forget that though.

>box starter
You're forced to fight the proffessor with the starters and pick one. Sure, you can box it, but you did pick one.

>box Mewtwo
Doesn't change the fact that its the only non Gen 6 legend.

They could've made a new trio but instead used the birds.

>I suppose Platinum is pandering too since it has all 3, right?
That's to get all mons in DS, it also had the birds IIRC. Also, nostalgiafags dont care about anything post 2.

Unovabortions have been putting BW2 on a pedestal for too long and genwun pandering is the only immediate point that comes to their mind to shift the "Pokemon became shit" heat onto later gen games, now that more people have been calling Gen V out on its shortcomings.
There actually are different points to use to call XY and SM shit besides that, but literally nobody gives a shit about XY anymore and BW2 fanboys don't want to bother with digging up dirt on SM because that means actually getting out of their comfort zone to prove a point.

notice how the genwun version was entirely objective facts (bugs in the game, things not working the way they were meant to) while this is all subjective opinions (i think this thing looks bad). makes you think.

>now that more people have been calling Gen V out on its shortcomings.
You mean to say calling Gen 5 the redheaded stepchild/black sheep of the franchise hasn't been a thing before?
And I thought more people were starting to appreciate Gen 5, which is why there's a high amount of praise for the games lately?
>>
>>33432250
There's been more praise, sure, but there's also been more genuine criticisms outside of the "muh trashbag" strawman

This thread made me realize that if something gets paraded as the best shit ever for too long, some people will try to find any negatives possible to see if it really holds up to the title.
>>
>>33430786
I don't see the problem. Your examples are more valid complaints than 'shadow disappears under the opponent's substitute if you use fire spin while they're paralyzed with 14 toxic counters' because they address things people have actually experienced. No one played gen 1 competitively.

Then ORASs timeline placement regarding SM is irrelevant regarding whether Looker went through a wormhole.

>>33432445
Its a common thing on the Internet, and probably part of human nature,when someone says something is 10/10 and you try it out you tend to focus on the flaws because you can't believe its that good. The opposite also happens, when someone says something is terribly bad you focus on the positives and ends up being at least better than expected(or good if the person had shit taste). Which is why more savvy people on 4chan usually lower their judgement regarding works. When someone says "X is decent" it might mean anything from "anon thinks its decent" to "anon thinks its excellent".

This one >>33431720 isn't too bad, it's mostly stating that some problems people had with Gen VI onwards are shared with Gen V. Though I do think PWT is better than anything VI and VII had to offer, it is less groundbreaking than the Frontier.
"The problem with" images have always been bullshit, even the ORAS one, despite a lot of people here hating the games, is full of petty reasons.

I found Gen 7 to be dull, not bad just...meh

Gen 1 will always be special since it's the first one I ever played
Gen 2 was fantastic and a huge improvment on Gen 1
Gen 3 Felt slow and boring, I was mid teens at the time so my interest was dwindling.
Gen 4 I remember it being ok, fun but forgettable.
Gen 5 My god the first too games were boring as all hell, I actually found myself playing 20 minutes of B/W then switching to a different game. Never played B/W2.
Gen 6 I held no hope for the series and had been buying the games out of tradition more than anything, but I was plesantly surprised by XY, ORAS was boring as all hell, offered almost nothing good and the post game was a piss easy waste of time fetch quest.

Gen 7 was fun but meh.

Only the first one of these pictures was well made because it actually listed problems instead of opinions. Even the ORAS one was awfully made despite ORAS being awful.

tfw no one would be complaining about ORAS had Gamefreak just been lazier with HGSS.

I actually liked it when Blizzard was 90% accurate.

It's fucking difficult to just jump out of the way of a blizzard in real life, ya know?
>>
>>33434668
No one would be complaining if ORAS wasn't as lazy as it was. I'm not saying they're shit-tier games, Hoenn is a good region and the gameplay is still fine, it's just that it lacks that extra spark that HGSS had.
>>
>>33431838
but why kanto?

gen 1 has objectively most broken games in the series.
>>
>>33430168
Literally half of these are either wrong or so ridiculously nitpicky and irrelevant to normal gameplay that they shouldn't even be considered "problems".

I guess that just goes to show that Gen 5 isn't actually THAT bad and that people only hate on it for the sake of hating on it.
>>
>>33436663
this has been obvious for years now

You dumb fucking retards only see everything in black and white and that's why you can recreate the original Gen I image without sounding like an biased raging manchild.
Now you are even calling any mention of previous games nostalgia pandering it's fucking ridiculous.

All of these games take place in the same universe so why wouldn't they have cameos or other characters appear in different regions? That's not what nostalgia pandering is.

Nostalgia pandering is when you decide to give charizard not one, but two new fucking evolution. That didn't happen because someone at GF thought it would be a needed change that would make the pokemon world feel more alive. Nobody though "oh charizard needs some love, let's give him two evos" no, they just wanted something to show in a new flashy trailer because they know old fans like charizard, so there you go, now you have more charizard. Pandering exist to sell something and most cameos or references are completely inoffensive.

>>33431730
>BW's postgame is incredibly barebones. In these games, you're able to explore the non-plot related locations that were locked behind for no reason, and capture all the Seven Sages.
And this fucking nonsense. You could literally argue every piece of postgame is locked for no reason. Why not just let you go to Kanto from the very beginning? Why not just let you play through the entire game as it was RBY but with johto starters?
>This quest is about on par with the other two Looker Quests in XY and SM, where you have to go to specific locations to do a certain task
No, it isn't. Unless I'm remembering wrong you are not told where the sages are so you actually have to explore instead of being told what to do.
And if you think the difference between being told what to do isn't big then you should consider never using linearity as a criticism ever again.

>>33436702
Yeah I loved when Pacifidlog was a postgame-exclusive location
And you people call any minute reference to Kanto Gen I pandering (shit like "you come from Kanto in SM? Genwun pandering!" even though you come from Johto in RSE and nobody bats an eye), so it's on the same level to call PWT just that. Stay mad
>>
>>33431992
There's been so many Kanto references along with some obvious, genuine pandering that some retards now genuinely see anything Kanto-related in the newer gens as pandering, when in reality 90% of it is a reference, just like how previous gens had references.
GSC would never get a pass if it was a modern Pokemon game.
>>
>>33436705
>he thinks the PWT isn't pandering
Gen V was hated by normies for having nothing to do with the first four games. Having every single past gym leader AND champion come back is pretty much everyone's dream, even if it's unfitting as all hell, like Giovanni coming to a public place just to get his ass kickd by Misty. It's pandering, but is done through a more cleverly hidden degree than outright getting a Charizard.
>>
>>33437063
If it's not explicitly Kanto then it's not pandering.

I don't know what "normies" means to you but that's wrong. You can still catch old pokemon and and Cynthia appears postgame.
But even then changing your game because of critical reception isn't pandering unless you are lowering yourself.
>>
>>33430168
I agree with with almost every one of these, but I still think of it as the best gen.
Every other gen had a parallel to most of these problems but much worse.
