why do zoomers even like pokemon? they weren't even there for 1999 pokemania the only time it was good. why do they copy millenials
zoomer boomer hoomer poomer loomer coomer foomer doomer woomer soomer joomer moomer Shut the fuck up.
Fucking 3 year old zoomers were playing Pokemon you retarded ape, the generation is pushing 30 now.
>>749319073Because, as much as it pains for them to admit it, their whole idea of what is cool is based on what the previous generation thought was cool, sometimes there is a breaking point, but Pokémon has been consistent since 1996 and that's why everyone likes it.
>>749319234trooner
>>749319234fippy bippy
>>749319238you didn't experience it
>>749319073Zoomers grew up with gen 3 (one of the strongest gens btw)
>>749319770millenials stopped caring after gen 2
>>749319501Gen A is Pokemon, Spiderman, Batman.Pokemon is stronger Art than Looney Tunes. >>749319501Eveyone touched pokemon cards and saw some of the anime, most were not playing red and blue.
>>749319073Pokemon was good a lot longer than Pokemania.
>>749319073cockfighting with superpowered animals is cross generational
>he thinks it's zoomers and not disney (japan) adults
>>749319073>>749319238fucking this I'm tired of retards acting like zoomers are aged 6-15they are freaking adults with jobs now get a clue
>>749320056alphies doesn’t have the same ring as zoomies
>>749319073Are you assclowns saying that if you were parents you would forbid your kids from trying older stuff?What fucking faggot ass mentality is this?
I got my zoomer brother to play Gen 1 when it came out on the 3DS like I dunno 10 years ago or something and he actually liked it and finished it. His first pokemon game was Gen 3.
>>749320142>risking the risk of raising a new CWCThank god you're a perma virgin
>>749320056It's just millennials coping about getting old so they pretend that everyone is a lot younger than they actually are lol
>>749320056you guys still missed when everything was good and act like you were there
>>749320195>if it was my chungus political secular cult it would be heckin basedaroosure, dude, sure
>>749320275yeah whatever man
>>749320275there are zoomers that got halo 3 on launch day during their childhoodsthat's good times right there and you know it, early xbox live days
>ANOTHER zoomer vs. millennial threadHE WILL NOT DIVIDE US!HE WILL NOT DIVIDE US!
>>749320438no I don't care you're a zoomer you didn't experience it properly
>>749319234I have this theory that we’re seeing a really bizarre upswing in this shit because /v/ is finally cratering
>you DIDN'T experience it PROPERLY one of the sadder troonlennial copes
>>749319770>introduced friendly rivals with parental drama>introduced retarded misguided evil teams who want to summon god>introduced generational electric rats (I'm giving Pichu a pass because Marill was clearly the Pikachu of its gen)>removed day/night cyclesGen 3 is literally where all the bad shit started
>>749319073Pokemania was in '98 you fake boomer.
>>749319073they don't like it; they just see big thing installed as a brand and they merely follow through the motions
>>749321583>Indians with Disney be like
>>749320182>His first pokemon game was Gen 3.What a fucking faggot. If your first gen wasn't gen 1 then you're a faggot point blank.
>>749319878and then they finished high school and suddenly it was okay to like pokemon again
>>749322138Anon, it's a children's game franchise that toddlers can beat by spamming attacks with their starter.
>>749322396>it's a children's game franchise that toddlers can beat by spamming attacks with their starteThat's a lie; you can pass Brock in gen one spamming attacks with Charmander
>>749322758>That's a lie >You can ?
>>749322758>>749321583Fucking ESL retards, man. Get them off my board.
>>749323101fuck no you
>>749319073Because their generation has nothing but sequels and remakes. Truly a lost generation
>>749319073The first five generations were good. 6 onwards sucks Martin Luther King Jr.'s balls.
>>749325576just because its 3d?
>>749325621no because they suck cock
My first pokemon games were leafgreen and diamond, Id say I was fortunate to experience childhood with the golden ds era of the ip.Anyways, as for op>reddit space>some stupid gen war crap, gen wunner millenial upset a zoomer railed his wife or something idkThe gameboy titles are overrated dogshit.
>>7493207344chan's been a dying husk ever since Hiroshima bought the place and basically left it on autopilot, leaving the site to the mercy (or lack of such) of the power tripping admins who are all miserable cunts who hate everyone but can't just kill the site immediately because Hiro will notice, come back and revert it since he's not yet done making money off of the domain, so they have to make the site genuinely unusable through insufferable moderation, heavy bias towards those who pay to promote their bullshit and refusal to permit topics that should be allowed per the rules because they don't actually abide by the secret shadow rules that you can only learn the hard way (getting constant 3-day vacations until you find out why something is verboten) until site traffic dies off "organically", THEN Hiro will pull the plug because if the site died on its own, then there's probably nothing he can do to revive it, and he already got his fat stacks from ad revenue and companies looking to buy data accumulated from 4chan.
>>749328217that wasn't the golden age lmao. in 1999 pokemon released in theaters. strangers would walk up to you in McDonald's to trade cards or mons in game. there will NEVER be anything like that.
>>749328270>his view of a 'golden age' is being a goyimsoomer for merchandise and not the quality of the vidyaReally not hiding the fact you are a soillenial huh
>>749328340It was the only time in his life he wasn't being ignored or bullied for being an autistic weirdo (he still was, they just weren't doing it straight to his face because he was a useful resource to the other kids since they wanted his cards/mons), cut him some slack.
>>749328340>>749328398you will always be a zoomer
>>749328474You can suppress it all you want, but you'll truly never heal from the mental scars of suddenly being bullied for liking Pokemon even though not just a week ago everyone was on the Pokemania hype train, because you were too autistic and mentally challenged to hop off Nintendo and hop on Sony so you can play GTA, Tony Hawk, Harry Potter, Yu-Gi-Oh and all the other cool shit.
>>749328474And you will always be depicted as soijak / the dud.Id say you have it far worse dork.
>>749319073blue > red
>>749328640>>749328685not reading your seethe
>>749328759>she's literally plugging her ears and going "LALALALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU" nowYou lost. You were RAPED, even.
>>749328245i thought 4chan was as popular than ever in the 2019-2021 era. But ever since 2024, its like a ghost town. its awful. Twitter captures some of the original spirit, but theyre still faggots.
>>749328759>n-n-not reading that mean sentence>seethe...God, even your rebutalls are limp and weak.Just say your conscious was buck broken and shut down the thread.
>>749328840It was doing great in numbers thanks to the traffic bump from all the political shittery, sure, but then mods were fags and failed to correctly contain the Wojak epidemic that eventually resulted in the creation of the Voldemort Website, one of several sources of nonstop raids and coordinated efforts to ruin individual boards to drag down the site's quality so severely that it inspired the big hack that did an even bigger dent in 4chan's organic traffic, and the site's been limping ever since.
Yeah I figured it was ESLjeets, typical
>why do millennials even read classic literature? They weren't even there.
>>749328992>>749328803you don't understand it's literally like the world was pokemon for a brief moment. everywhere you went every kid your age had a pocket full of cards and a Gameboy. literally every millenial male went to the theaters to watch it in theaters and you saw everyone you know in the line. schools had to make announcements because it took over everything. literally the biggest global phenomenon to ever exist. zoomers can't understand.
I think it’s funny how so much time has passed that posers can’t actually storytime supposed memories, due to a lack of both creativity and lived-in experience.
>>749329181And then, right after Gold and Silver released, everything was suddenly over. Pokemon wasn't king anymore, all the kids called it gay, and they called YOU gay for still liking it. They all moved onto Playstation, Yu-Gi-Oh, Harry Potter, Transformers, Star Wars, etc. because Pokemon was babyshit, even if it had Charizard on the box.
>>749329260nyoooooo
>>749329181>words words words>bro the hecking merch was everywhere! You wouldnt get it!Nigger theres pokemon merch in practically every single store in the first world atp, the ip has become a universal interest for mankind as its highest grossing ip ever and forever. I think you are baiting atp with the generic gen wun era deepthroating
>started with pokemon yellow on my yellow pikachu edition gameboy>played pokemon gold>played pokemon sapphire>never touched another pokemon game since then, just saw random screenshots and milf porn on 4chanWhat does this make me?
>>749329403>saw the dip in quality and left right before it spiked up to its peakTheres definitely words that describe someone like you in biz
>>749329387>the beatles entire discography is available on spotify at a moments notice and i can order their merchandise on amazon whenever i want! i basically experienced the EXACT same or even BETTER thing than the teenagers in the 60's during beatlemania!1
>>749319073Because Pokémon got its formula down pat on its first release and has been copying its own success ever since. Play one Pokémon, then you've effectively played them all. The only good one was the first? Well Then XY and SwSh are also the greatest because not only are they the same game, but now they have functional mutiplayer. The games were always garbage for children, anon. It's time to let it go.
the first 3 gens suck
>>749329030i dont get why like 30% decided not to come back, other than those who wanted a break from the internet in general.
Zoroark is for any generation
>>749329739They realized that the internet as a whole simply does not offer anything to them anymore now that one of the final bastions of the web they enjoyed was taken down, even if temporarily, even if its own quality had been on the decline, so they either became permalurkers or retreated into private circlejerks.
>>749320215Patiently waiting over a decade for zoomers to not have female levels accountability over their own proud ignorance, or to develop any culture at all. Zoomers hate accomplishing anything because of the sunk cost fallacy in never having accomlished anything.Gen A actually has some spark, zoomers are all dead in the eyes trannies with zero imagination for anything beautiful.
>>749320734I’m not surprised a lot of people have left, the board is bafflingly retarded in a way that genuinely isn’t normal, it feels like the average post here is some retarded 3rd-worlder treating every interaction like a scam.
>>749319073why do boomers even like snow white? they weren't even there for 1937 when it was getting awards and reshaped the animation industry before it got completely outclassed by other movieswhy do they copy the greatest generation?
>>749330313It's a good mix of fags too stubborn to leave, genuine schizos who've been booted out of everywhere and are only kept around here because the mods want to use them to contribute to the site's already-rock bottom state, shills, and indeed, third worlders.
>>749330202>Gen A actually has some sparkDelusional, they will be the most mindraped sub IQ brownest gen yet
>>749330641They're even more doomer than zoomers even, they know they're "cooked" but genuinely can't conceive how to fix it because they were born into a world that's been fucking them over since birth. Parents who don't give a shit frying their dopamine receptors permanently with slop on tablets, everyone defaulting to AI because they assume AI will handle everything so they don't need to put in the effort, and an overwhelming clusterfuck of reasons to despair and become apathetic because they're also terminally online and learn about shit like the cabal of elites who are raping and eating babies right now and haven't been punished for it.
>>749319073pokemon company may not be good at making games but they're damn good at getting kids addicted to crack, the go to at the moment is cards
Ever since the botfarms pulled out you can really feel how clueless the generationfags are now.
Born in 88. I got to play Red/Blue (and Yellow) on release. Thumbed through the strategy guide my cousin had. Opened base set booster packs. Saw the base set theme decks. Saw the release of Jungle & Fossil. The first season of the anime. All those toys, games like Snap & Stadium. Watched the first movie in the theater to get a promo card.And none of it really meant anything. It was just consumerism. There was some genuine joy and excitement, but could all that money and attention and care have been better spent? I think so. Then again, I'm 38 and on /v/ so whatever.
>>749319073they're good games. let the lil niggas have something besides fortnite and shit.
>>749331139They don't even care about Pokemon, if it's not Fortnite or Roblox or some other free-to-play MMO live service platform they genuinely will not give a fuck.
>>749331007>I had all of these great memories with friends, but it meant nothing because a corporation only made the product to profitHoly shit, I wish people would fuck off with this utterly retarded doomerism.
>>749331007>but could all that money and attention and care have been better spent?you were 9 lol just be glad your parents loved you enough to buy you vidya, silly.
>>749331205anon you don't understand, all the nintendium they spent making gameboys could have built more mr beast wells in africa
>>749331205the great memories with friends wouldve been great no matter what we were doing. That what we were doing was centered around handing our parents cash to nintendo/gamefreak/wotc/etc is what bothers me.
>>749331384News flash dipshit, that's the foundation of every single way you could spend time with friends that doesn't boil down to playing with sticks or dicking around in the woods/creek/river.
>>749331473then maybe playing with sticks and dicking around in the woods is what we should've been doing more of
>>749322207yeah this was precisely how it went i had some nerd friends still playing in high school but by college everyone was back on board
>>749328245I remember some time ago I said a no-no banned word, I have no fucking idea what it was but it instantly banned me without even posting the message, I got a 30 day ban because of that lmao.
>>749331384>My friends and I would go to the skating rink every weekend but oh woe all that money spent on letting us do it makes me depressedo
>>749321290>Gen 3 is literally where all the bad shit startedThis. It doesn't even have the physical/special split gen 4 introduced, gen 3 is literally one of the worst generations, mechanically.
Who is the chimp getting so bizarrely worked up this thread
>>749331520Do you live around a brook? If you played in the park regularly your parents would have to drive you to the park, and that gas money alone would exceed the amount they paid just for that Gameboy and game in the longrun.
genuine question: why are black guys so obsessed with pokemon
>>749328217ds era was total dogshit. boring disappointing garbage for retarded faggots only after how amazing gen 1 was.
>>749332871Because it's entry-level japanese media, like Dragon Ball and Naruto, and niggas love being weebs.
>>749329739I don't think people stopped visiting the site that much. What happened is that people just stopped posting as much and started lurking more. It's sad seeing a bunch of 3-4 day old threads on /v/ now, something that would be impossible just 5 years ago. The worst part is that these zombie threads are just gookchinkfap threads where it's literally 2-3 "people" bumping the thread every 10 minutes or so with a random image until the jannies have their fill and mark it for death.
>>749333053/v/ was also split into like 10 fucking boards
>>749333053And then that type of thread gets nuked off of /v/ permanently because a mod ends up having a bad experience that's tangentially related to that game in some way, adding to the godawful board quality of /vg/ or completely hijacking a niche dead board like /vrpg/.
Why do people like Batman? They weren't even alive in the 30s when Bob Kane drafted him...
