What is with these games specifically spawning manchildren? There are no Genwunner youtubers because they have all moved on with their lives and started families instead of going full sperg about pointless shit in children's games
>>

Why are you watching Pokèmon content on YouTube?
>>
there are no genwunner youtubers because they're too busy beating the shit out of eachother at costco and buying tcg sets in bulk to resell them
>>
I want to be a gen wun youtuber but I'm 34 and ugly
>>
name ten

>>58344213
Just use a virtual avatar m8.

It’s ALWAYS the blonde and brunette British ones

for some reason people whose first game was gen 5 always seem to abandon the series after a few more entries. I wonder why?
>>
>>58344135
While you're whole genwarring ragebait OP post is retarded, I think there may actually be an explanation for this:
Gen 3 presents pokemon as its own sorta fully realized fantasy world in a way Gen 1 did not (Gen 2 also is pushing more in that Gen 3 direction but still has some of that Gen 1 DNA).
RSE really set up pokemon as this specific brand of fantasy world that allowed for new levels of escapism you just didnt get from Gen 1, and this setting was held fairly consistently from Gen 2 -> Gen 5, with Gen 7 and onward being very goofy and a lot more "dont think about it so much its a cartoon goofy stuff happens" which is a bit more in line with Gen 1 (albeit Gen 1 is a slightly edgier version of this).
So basically the setting of the Pokemon world presented in and around Gen 3 is moreso the kind that will create obsessive fans.

>autistic (not a youtuber)
>my first game actually was Sapphire
Does this still make me a manchild?
>>
>>58344914
Yes
>>
>>58344135
It’s a millennial game and they’re more likely to be autistic YouTubers
>>
>>58344927
Ok then.

>>58344378
The wild part is despite devolving into this fantasy utopian setting where everyone loves each other and the villains want to destroy the world for no real reason other than teh evil lulz, is the fact that Gen III has HORRIBLE world building and is still just adjacent to our world but without any of the blatant pollution or urbanization going on in Gen I. People will gas up all the visual aspects of the world being "unique" but never the characters or writing because Hoenn has the worst writing in the series by simply not encouraging any real thought or emotion. It's just a means to an end to have "more Pokemon" as soon as possible. The soft reboot formula snuffed this franchise's true writing potential

Hoenn is just built different
>>
>>58344378
the world of gens 1 and 2 is supposed to be our world, but with the addition of monsters.
gen 3 started the pokemon world being its own thing where pokemon replace animals and regions replace countries.
>>
>>58345025
Don’t worry, Hoenn 2.0 (Sinnoh) fixed it
>>
genwunner jewtubers are always gamefreak cock suckers that shill the latest slop
>>
>>58344135
>watching pokemon youtube videos
>getting mad that your algorithm recommends you the type of video you keep clicking on
What is it with this franchise and spawning retards?
>>
>>58345418
Gen II edged it a little in that direction but only because it couldn't outright retcon Gen I and being one of the franchise's only two (now three) direct sequels, had the baggage of needing to carry over Gen I's story. It's why RPGs don't really last too long as a singular story, lest you become Kingdom Hearts. Franchising Pokemon was the only answer to keep it alive, but at the cost of its integrity, especially when Masuda kept doubling down on "remember Kanto?" every time something was met with lukewarm reception in the previous installment

>>58345474
Sinnoh does fix a lot of the empty world building issues Hoenn left us with, but it doubled down on the utopian setting so we're just kind of stuck with it for good now. You do something once you can just force people to forget it happened (like Johto being a sequel) but once you've done it twice, you shown you didn't really learn anything
>>
>>58345510
We've had this whole discussion before, but what part of Pokemon is utopian?
>>
>>58345525
I mean compare it to any other jrpg or shounen series for starters, even DQ has way heavier shit happen in its main story.
>>
We called them Hoenbabbies for a reason

>if a game is fun to play, fun to watch, and keeps you endlessly entertained that's actually bad
>good games are the ones nobody plays or talks about
If you don't like gen 3 you better deal with it. Gen Alpha is going to grow up watching streamers play gen 3 dating sim roms, for the 25th anniversary of gen 3 nintendo will release Pokemon Maker, when the energy wars begin the only entertainment will be low-power devices running a text-based version of gen 3, the last humans will be archived in gen 3 data structures, and that will be the only remnant of our society when another civilization finds our dead planet as they spread our greatest achievement through the cosmos.

TLDR: Gen 3 will never stop being relevant and will outlive us all.

>>58345525
They deliberately downplay any particular insidious behavior or darker themes in Masuda's games. Usually villains are portrayed as bumbling oafs that have Saturday Morning Cartoon cackles and the one exception, BW, are the games that got deliberately sanitized from the originally intended vision because they thought the morality of having your rival be the main antagonist was too much

We didn't start seeing a return to form until Ohmori took over, but his games are also too sanitized with modern ideals of 'there are no villains just sad people' so we don't really get actual, nasty people like Gen I Team Rocket. Even the most dangerous villain of the modern era, Volo, is only doing the shit he does because he wants to make the world a happy place with no pain or misery

>Nintendo giving a shit about the GBA era

My man it's the autistic fanbase that cares, Nintendo would objectively rather you forget they released anything from 2001-2005
>>
>>58344135
>kids born in 1994 have gen 3 as their first game
in other news, water types weak to electric attacks
>>
>>58344135
Cause its too easy for them to get lost in or lose
>>
>>58344135
Why are you watching them? You're the bigger retard here. You're giving these manchildren money by watching their video. You're enabling them.
>they have all moved on with their lives and started families instead of going full sperg about pointless shit in children's games
Do the same.
>>
>>58344135
You made this thread a couple months ago.

>>58344936
If your first Pokemon game was RSE you're 92% unlikely a Millennial.
