this actually applies to any gen, but gen 5 seems to be the worst offender

So no, you're not special if you hate Lucario and like Meganium. You're also not special if it's the other way around either.

Mega Evolutions were a good idea but poorly implemented. They should have been 4th evolutions or a permanent form change in the same way that Deoxys or Kyurem do. They were a squandered chance to retrain shitmon and instead fuckin Garchomp got one.

Physical/Special split was a blunder the franchise has never recovered from

coombait threads are way more annoying than genwar, at least genwar retards are passionate about something other than "dude, sex"

Why would I pick a water starter when there's a billion water types available in the game? It's already hard to choose from what's there even without factoring in water starters, so I generally never pick them knowing there will be a fuck ton of (cooler) water pokemon to choose from as it's an oversaturated type.

-I'm tired of pretending that Pokemon Mystery Dungeon was any good. It's not even a good Mystery Dungeon game
-I'm enjoying the official spinoff content (PMD withheld) more than the mainline games
-/vp/ is most tolerable when it's swarming with normalfags reposting facebook memes; in the very least it's a good reprieve from the usual flood of reddit tourists, genwarbait, and ESLs
-The games are still enjoyable even if there are things worth criticizing about them, but if you have to bring up >muh grafix as criticism, your opinion doesn't matter

>>57225205

this guy has some good points but also some bad ones (i.e. easily dismissed)

some common points touched on here but where he differs it shows there still isn't a solidly set narrative yet for precisely why johto sucks; everyone is starting to take it for granted that it is true

for example
>no houndoom
>abysmally weak major npcs like the rocket executives
>abominably low encounter rates, including ones that can flee
>LIMITED HELD ITEM *TRADE-EVOS*

also johto has super shitty learnsets and a terrible movepool

look at forretress as a prime victim, and all the mons that have to run Hidden Power for a decent STAB or any at all

>>57227317
>Genwars can offer new perspectives on the games and interesting discussions
this is correct and why they are the only discussions on this entire board that actually talks about the games

my favorite pokemon is [x]
bonus points if its a coombaitmon

it's weird that its seel and not seal
I understand seal is the spelling of the actual animal but SEAl makes sense for a pun like dewgong

Simple designs like Voltorb and Magneton are fine. It gets old and overdone the more you use it. That's why it's fine for older gens and bad for later gens.

>>57227428

PLA is a great game, and the best Pokemon game since probably the DS era.
Gen 5 isn't great, but it's not bad either. it's middle-of-the-road.
there's nothing wrong with regional forms, actually they're a good idea and there should be more.
Johto games are heavily flawed, but still great in spite of it. you're allowed to like something and still acknowledge its flaws. most people wouldn't be a lot less critical of them if they weren't out under a microscope for 20 years and compared to every other game in the series, but just taken for what it is.

I do, but it's a fact that genwars are more toxic, especially with Shartyfags and Discordfags raiding /vp/ all the time. And yes yawnfag is real, he doesn't even try to change up his baits and posting styles. The year will be 2050 and he will still be posting screenshots of his overleveled Haxorus.

based take

my take: BW1 exclusively having Gen 5 Pokemon was poor game design. conceptually, I understand why people like the idea, but in reality it's just a novelty gimmick that does more harm to the game than good.
