Gen 4 and 5 are nu gen right?
>>58228973idk but they are shit
>>582289734 is debatable but 5 is definitely nu
>>582289731 is OG, and ONLY 1.2 is Retro.3 was original Reinvention but the majority of Pokémonfans are too young to realize that.4 is is the continuation of that reinvention.5 is a Dork Age/Crystal Pepsi situation.6 is start of The New Normal, i'd say it is more "nu" then 4/5 since a Reinvention does not automatically mean "nu".
Gen 6 is where the design philosophy of the series shifted and it's evidently visible when reading Masuda's blog where he goes from constant, passionate posts to only ever posting corporate bullshit for Gen 6+. Gen 5 was even by his own words an attempt to return to form and recapture the magic of the originals, and ultimately the changes it brought to the series are more mechanical edits to the formula and less about the series' identity/direction.

how many of these gayass “hurrr nugen?!??” threads do we need
>>58228973yesnugen starts in gen 2
>>58228973No. 'New Gen' technically started with Gen 3. That's why it's mainly used to refire to anything contemporary. The system you should be using is this:>ClassicGens 1-2>GoldenGens 3-5>SilverGens 6-7>ModernGens 8+It's kind of crazy that we might be getting a Bronze Age soon.
