How do we fix Pokemon?
>>731507213revert back to soul era and forget the gens that came after
Give the IP to level5
>>731507213Steal the rights to make the games from Gamefreak because you know they'll never give it up
In terms of quality, Pokemon is a dead franchise.
>>731507213GBA~DS bad the best games, genunner.
>>731508005Gen 1 and 2 were fine for their era but they're borderline unplayable now
Wait until November of this year.
>>731508190What happens then?
>>731508558Sky/sea is out.
>>731507213I'd move G3 into the Soul era
>>731507213BW was a huge improvement for combat
Who else went to see Pokemon: The First Movie?
>>731508152>le old games le unplayable maymay xD Spoken like a true nugen fan.
>>731508909I remember my dad taking me and my brother to see it. His face was throughout sheer "what the fuck am I watching"
>>731509030I was 7 when Red came out and Sword and Shield made me give up on the series>>731508574And? It's just going to be Sword and Shield 3
>>731509059If I remember correctly you got free exclusive pokemon cards when we went to see it. Don't know what happened to mine.
by posting on >>>/vp/holy fuck you nigs have an entire board to yourself, fuck off
>>731508909>>731509059For me it was 9 years old and embarrassment when Misty almost kissed statue Ash
>>731507213Add a special breeding mechanic.
Imagine being GF making your 1000th pokemon to celebrate the franchise, and deciding on a design of a filthy rich smug fuck skating on a golden surfboard that leaves a trail of coins behind itself. this franchise is hilariously sad
>>731509278I was 13 when I saw it. Loved every moment because I fucking love Pokemon.
>>731509270Aww do you need more catalog space for AI and gacha threads you little retard?
>>731509143>And? It's just going to be Sword and Shield 3We'll see but I doubt it.
no need to fix it, take the tcg pill and enjoy the game and it's pokemon without gamefreak fucking everything up
>>731509519What makes you think that?I want to like Pokemon games. Really badly.
>>731508152they're primitive in comparison but still completely playable at most you'd have to remember there are no abilities and that gen 1 has first game jank
>>731509420for me, it's the fact that he looks like a fat version of the string cheese mascot what the fuck were they thinking
>>731507213Abolish copyright law
Brutally torture and murder all pokeniggers
>>731507213More like the official Sharty guide to the Decline of Pokemon. You can honestly tell based on how they feel about Gen 5.
>>731509278I skipped 1 in theaters because I was a contrarian at the time but saw 2000 with my grandpa and had a similar reaction to a scene towards the end, told my grandpa I needed to go to the bathroom and as soon as I realized they weren't gonna kiss I was like "nevermind" and sat down again.
>>731507213-pokemon visible in the wild-battle starts with no transition-battles are only double battles-no double versions-every playthrough has a unique seed that determines encounter rates-every game has a save file for a playthrough and a second save file where caught Pokemon are stored to be imported to playthroughs-battles are reworked to be very stylish with hundreds of varied animations multiple per attack-super effective moves no longer one hit kill an opponent-instead it knocks them down and staggers them allowing follow up moves-moves are displayed at all times in a radial menu so one button press is all that's required-moves are equipable outside of battles-five moves can be equipped to a Pokemon-always have access to every learned move it just requires more button presses than the equipped-no more IV stats every Pokemon is 'perfect'-no more shiny Pokemon-each Pokemon has several variants including regional ones-starting Pokemon choices are much more variable and based on seed-choosing the starting town and non-linear progression-experience points and level ups are gained exceedingly rapidly-power disparity between levels is hard gapped no longer can a Pokemon 10 levels higher easily overpower another elemental strengths and weakness much more important-no more switching out Pokemon in a battle instead a third Pokemon can be deployed when one is weak against an opponent-pokeballs that are used to catch Pokemon are now much more important and alter all kinds of stats and ability to learn moves and typings-very few trainers to battle in the game and over time they refresh their team and scale higher in rematches-the prerequisite of fighting the elite four no longer depends on gym badges there's no gyms-the requirement of facing the elite four is now dependent on beating every trainer in the region in a battle-the world is seamless and fly and soar are now the same ability-all bodies of water can be dived into and explored
>>731511271>battle starts with no transitionSoulless, imagine the champion/final battle just going in with no transition >every playthrough has a unique seed that determines encounter ratesNo. Why should I be forced to play with Pokemon I don't like just because my save file stated with a shitty seed that I can't tell until halfway through? >super effective moves no longer one hit kill an opponent What? Why not? How is that good? >instead it knocks them down and staggers them allowing follow up moves Pointless tedium >no more shiny Pokemon What? Why not? How is that good? >each Pokemon has several variants including regional ones That wont fix anything, will put people off certain mons because they can't get their preferred 'look' more easily >no more switching out Pokemon in a battle What? Why not? How is that good? >pokeballs that are used to catch Pokemon are now much more important and alter all kinds of stats and ability to learn moves and typingsHorrible idea, "oh no I ran out of Pokeballs on this specific encounter for this specific seed for this specific 'look' of the Pokemon, guess it's Speed stat is forever fucked now" >very few trainers to battle in the game I'm stopping here, you're clearly trolling at this point
>>731508898>>731510881Gen 5 was never good
Gen 5 was always good.
>>731512531>imagine the champion/final battle just going in with no transitionyeah, it's bad assall the style and flair is occurring during the battle, so you lack imagination.
>>731512864BW and BW2 postgame is laughable compared to HGSS, lmao at the bloat for BW2 especially
>>731513056>we want style and flair in the battles! >therefore, we must remove the style and flair of the transition/trainer introduction ?????????????????????
>>731513117>lmao at the bloat for BW2 especiallyTranslation: Wah, too much content!
>>731512531So many people make the same mistake when trying to critique things. They pick apart stuff that works together. Notice how many times you asked why is this good, only for the reason to become clear a little later.
>>731512864
>>731513243>Notice how many times you asked why is this good, only for the reason to become clear a little later The reason did not ever become clear
>>731511271I have never seen someone with this many dogshit ideas at once.
Uh oh, Yawnie's mad. He's now about to air out all of his Unova schizo folder.
>>731513402get off kanto's coattails, johtrannyyou do NOT fit in
>>731507213I agree modern Pokémon designs are underwhelming but he could've chosen better examples, those are nowhere near the worst
>>731507213Black/White and Black 2/White 2 were the best Pokemon games ever and it isn't even close.
>>731512864Gen 5 had too many roadblocks IMO. Gen 3 was my favorite as a kid because I loved how it felt like you were just handed all of Hoenn to explore by the midgame.
>>731513613>Unova gets made fun of >try to turn everyone against Johto (the last game that actually had soul) Tale as old as time. Palpable jealousy.
>>731513842NTA, but you brought Johto into this, so of course it's fair game when it gets criticised.
>>731513613Most people would agree that the Gameboy games fit together - both on the same system and have Pokemon Stadium counterparts. And also get the same BS accusations of being 'outdated' and 'unplayable'.
>>731513940>you brought Johto into this No, the image had the two earliest Gens and compared against Gen 5. (You) brought Johto into this by singling it out + you are that one guy from /vp/ that uses the term 'johturd' that no-one else uses.
>>731513752I personally think Hoenn is alright, but I can't enjoy it anymore due to how slow it is.
>>731507213>bootleg digimonWhy are you trying to say Digimon like it's a bad thing? If the designs were more like Digimon things would better.
>>731514212>No, the image had the two earliest GensThose are remakes from Gen 3 and 4. At least, try not to be disingenuous.
>>731514064>Most people would agree oh, they don'tthey really, really don't
>>731514415FRLG and HGSS are remakes of Gens 1 and 2. They are NOT Gens 3 and 4 and never will be, no matter how hard you try to bump up your shitty Gen 1 rehashes.
>>731514626Your little discord cult might not, but normal people do.
>>731514747i was there, you came in laternot taking your word from it, sorry, that narrative doesn't work
>>731514667>FRLG and HGSS are remakes of Gens 1 and 2.Made during Gen 3 and Gen 4, featuring new content exclusively from those gens. Unless you think Johto always had a battle frontier or Sinjoh with Cynthia.
>>731512864In terms of mon designs it was the turning point.Gen 1-4>Cool dragons with godly powers>Some cute Yokai with fucked up loreGen 5>Cool Dragons with godly powers> A death mask>A literal abortion>an (admittedly cute) icecream coneGen 6-9>Furry bait of varying quality>Keychains>Tree stumps>Sandcastles>Literally just a wolf with a sword>Donald duck but feral>a fucking Cheese-stick
>>731514935>gen 2>80% is a sphere or has a sphere tumor>awwwwwwww soooooooooo cute baby pokemon merchandise focused entertainment property
>>731515026Gen 2 is the Dobson Pokemon generation because every pokemon looks like a goddamn inflatable.
>>731512748You're right. It was fucking fantastic.
ah I see, everyone still likes the dogshit so it can't be helped
>>731513402BW has the largest hub city in the entire series, ridiculous image
>>731507213Fix what? the games sell gangbusters without needing any kind of work, if you have any complaint start killing "pokefans"
>>731508152Maybe if you're a literal child
I loved gen 5 gameplay wise but cannot deny that, with the exception of my wife, the designs were lacking
A complete reboot. Get a new team to do it.
