Like it or not, these are all easily top 5 games in the series.

If you're not a nostalgia baby, you recognize these stand alongside the HGSS/Emerald/BW2 echelon.
>>
>>58475638
SV is fucking dogshit
>>
I only count 4 games in the image
>>
>>58475638
Don’t you fags get tired of debating which children’s game is le peak aura
>>
>>58475638
PLA is mid, SV is outright terrible. Never played PLZA.
>>
>>58475638
To compare that trash to the definitive Pokemon games is such an insult that I have to wonder if you even played any of the games in said echelon at all.
>>
>>58475638
Good Bait I guess
>>
>>58475638
Those are the most boring slops in the franchise. The Switch titles are a shitstain to this franchise.

No thanks, retard. Arceus is the only serviceable one and it's still bad.

BW2 sucks ass.
>>
>>58475688
>USUM
Mediocre garbage. Just becauss it's the best of the 3DS trash doesn't make it good.
>Platinum
Overrated garbage. It still has many of DP issues, which were fundamentally flawed and bad games.
>BW2
Good but overrated. Too much railroading, not enough freedom.

Emerald > HGSS > PLA > PLZA > SV > BW2 > the rest
>>
>>58475710
You lost Yawnfag.
>>
>>58475638
Ive played red, yellow, silver, crystal, y, lets go eevee, arceus and za,

Za was easily the best.
>>
>>58475638
SV was so forgettable
>>
>>58475713
swap pla and hgss with bw2 and platinum and this would be an actual list
>>
>>58475713
>doesn't make it good.
Better than any of the Switch dogshit
>many of DP issues
Like what, retard? Le slow and fire types? Then you don't like Emerald or HGSS either
>Good but overrated
Easily the best games in the series, with the most content to boot. You're a shit eating faggot
>>
>>58475713

Cant take anyone serious with such a dogshit opinion.

SV's environments.
SwSh's towns.
SV's picnics + breeding.
Z-A battle system.
Arceus catching system.
Legends alphas + size differences.

Combine Arceus and Z-A's side quests (I liked giving Pokemon to people).
Expand on Z-A's Pokemon placement in the environments.
Incorporate rideable Pokemon.
Add abilities.
Put back in Amie.
Bring back contests, mining, and cooking.
>>
>>58475638
They stand alongside in the trash.

No game without a battle tower is even top 10, sorry.

ZA is fucking dogshit.
Ugly ass SV tranny aesthethics.
Less customisation than fucking SwSh and PLA.
Catching got butchered, no more food as bait, no more smokescreen.
Pokemon moves look fucking horrendous . The map is just a huge city with the most repugnant texture imaginable.
Mega raid battles are a fucking bore fest.
No abilities, no link cable for trade evos, the online pvp gimmick gets boring real quick and whose idea is it to allow people to rank up despite losing and coming last? What's the point of rank system then?
The story is fucking SwSh tier.
Megas look goofy and uninspiring.

Game is too short and easy.

1 whole year gap of no Pokemon game for what exactlty?
Za is fucking dogslop beyond ratshit.
>>
>>58475768
>Less customisation than fucking SwSh and PLA.
You're trolling. It has the most customization in the series, probably more than XY even.
>>
>>58475795
This game doesn't even offer proper skirts.
>>
>>58475638
>top 5
>Posts 4 games
Huh???
>>
>>58475638
SV sure is, ZA is okay, PLA was awful.
>>
>>58475638
PLA is good but the other two are bottom tier trash
>>
I know full well y'all are jjst Palworldfaggots trying to stir up bullshit on /vp/, I just can't prove it yet
>>
>>58475853
>Pokeschizophrenia at full display.
Meds now
>>
>>58475638
Top 5 is a bit much, but I can see how they would be in someone's top 5. PLA is in my top 5
>>
They have the best ideas but worst execution
>what if open world and freedom to explore... but no level scaling, no antagonist, and disjointed story presented horribly
>what if ancient 3D sinnoh and catchable pokemon outside of battle... but slow battle system, ugly empty sectioned world with tedious grind to advance the story
>what if living breathing pokemon city... but 99% of pokemon are in small zones with big ugly hologram walls and the city looks the same everywhere you go

Gamefreak consistently have really cool ideas that carry you through these last 3 games but in every single case you're constantly wishing they could actually land the execution
>>
>>58475895
>he thinks level scaling is good
And just like that you destroyed all your credibility.
>>
>>58475817
>boohoo they didn't add the skirts I wanted how will I goon to this?
seek help that doesn't invalidate all the other great clothing options
>>
>>58475638
Legends Arceus for me is S tier
Z-A so far is A tier
Even with the performance patch ScatVomit is very low tier, Kitakami was good but blueberry academy was hot garbage
>>
>>58475912
>great clothing options
Barely any good haircut either and the colors for the clothes are all so shit too.
Eject yourself already, Eduardo.
>>
>>58475909
Soft scaling, like what New Vegas does, is critical in open worlds to allow both freedom and the feeling of progression
No scaling just creates a linear experience that everyone plays in the same order
>>
>>58475736
Emerald is significantly faster than Sharing and so is HGSS. Le slow isn't the only complaint. The pacing is still god awful with long stretches of blandness and nothing happening.
>>
>>58475931
>I’m dogshit at the game so that means everyone played the same as me
>>
>>58475938
HGSS isn't faster at all, same combat speed just getting a fucking TM in that game takes ages. You're full of shit.
>>
>>58475947
By dogshit you mean easily being overleveled by the time i reach the 3rd gym leader, yeah sure
>>
>>58475938
lol second half of emerald is complete ass and hgss is completely fucked by the mid game
>>
>>58475638
All button 5 games

I don't think you seem to get it you brain dead nigger
If you skip several gyms or titan pokemon to beat higher level content you end up hilariously overpowered, especially with global untoggleable exp share, resulting in an unfun cakewalk for the rest of the game.
If you want to skip ahead and become overleveled you can still do that with soft scaling, but the game will still keep pace with you to an extent in some areas so normal players that want a normal but free experience can play out of order and still have an experience that feels like a traditional adventure

>Barely any good haircut either

LOL
LMAO EVEN
>>
>>58475954
>>58475980
>I got overleveled
>so that means they should make overleveling even easier by adding level scaling guaranteeing every boss is weaker than me
>>
>>58475996
Even if you play in order as it is you get overleveled by just battling trainers and catching one of each type of pokemon. The way the system works right now it's fucking impossible to not get overleveled
The games, especially if they intend to be open world and have global exp share, NEED some form of scaling, or at least an optional toggle for it. As of right now they are toddler baby games
>>
>>58475996
Do you know what level scaling means you dumb fuck?
>>
>>58476009
>The way the system works right now it's fucking impossible to not get overleveled
You were overleveled when you fought Mela first and Grusha second? How did you do that?

>>58476017
Do you?
>>
bait used to be believable.
>>
>>58476009
>As of right now they are toddler baby games
You only think this because you’re retarded and fought every boss in order because you were too scared to challenge yourself and fight anything with a higher number than yours.
>>
>>58475638
Among those games in order

1. SV - Pretty fun and open world and allowing you to challenge people of way higher levels than yourself making it harder. Its a good decent pokemon game.
2. Legends ZA - This ones decently fun. But lots of boring parts like certain side missions and the battles system is just pressing your attack buttons as soon as they fill up. Not in the same league as the old normal pokemon games.
3. Legends Arceus - This one is terrible with infinite cutscenes, no trainer battles and horrible missions of catching the same pokemon over and over.
>>
>>58475985
>no argument
I accept your concession.
>>
>>58475638
Those three games are literally, not figuratively, but actually literally, the worst three in the series. They have the least effort put into them, the least amount of content, and have the most bugs and issues. Yes, I consider SV to be buggier than RBY. My first play through of Red I didn't encounter any bugs I didn't seek out on my own. I encountered a bug 45 minutes into Scarlet.

3 games

Just because they've normalized two releases doesn't mean we should acknowledge them as separate. We even lost the third version to DLC packages.
