When did you realize Gamefreak lost the plot?
They didn't, you're just retarded.
>They didn't, you're just retarded.
>>58616118as someone who loves Gen 5 its hard not to feel like there was a shift when they left Japan, but I wouldn't say it really felt apparent until SV.As bad as SwSh are they didn't really feel out of line with the philosophies of the previous games, just very rushed.
these things were psychological terrorism. why did they do this to raikou, entei and suicune
>>58616128
>>58616122
>>58616118Around gen 4. When you fight God, either you go out of your way to fight strange universal entities in space, or cut the franchise because you'll never reach higher.You killed God, what else is there to do?
>>58616165
>>58616118>she thinks game freak ever had a plotPoor little maroon
>>58616118probably Sun and Moon, but they showed signs before that
gen 4
>>58616166it was smart of them to make the legendaries more regional focused myths in the switch era, rather than the embodiments of natural forces
>>58616118Fucking Disgusting
>>58616167Not appreciating designs like picrel has nothing to do with skill. If I wanted Digimon designs without the tiddies, I'd play Monster Rancher.
Gen 9 was a mistake
>>58616184they're also region focused
Gen 4, palkia dialga arceus giratina still doesnt look like pokemon
>>58616192Oh, look.More fucking Digimon.
>>58616202cool better than pokeshit boring designs literally my mom rat, dog
>>58616200I'm not gonna claim that the Creation trio are in line with Pokemon's original design philosophy but they're at least some cool motherfuckers
>>58616118The moment Pokemon Sun and Moon was announced
>>58616200Imo the creation trio struck a nice balance of familiar and alien elements. They were way more elaborate and abstract as far as details and shape were concerned, but they had recognizable pokemon elements like the simplified eyes and mouths. Arceus deviated a bit further by having no mouth but its eyes still resemble its kin and other powerful pokemon like Groudon and Metagross. I much prefer it to ultra beasts deviating completely from the artstyle while not being particularly distinct in and of themselves. Pheramosa for example is literally just a stock model of a cockroach with a cute face lazily slapped on.
>>58616118If anything, they found the plot again after they lost it in SwSh. Walking Wake is one of the coolest Pokémon they ever made btw

>>58616343Nothing in swsh is as horrible as Goldengo not even the aborted fetus that is Calyrex or the fossils(they come close though)
>>58616118they lost the plot in gen 3. any other answer is "the game i grew up with is the last good one" syndrome.
>>58616357this, the only times they briefly got it back were FRLG and HGSS
>>58616118when they sold us a 50 dollar mew
>>58616353There is nothing wrong with Gholdengo. You're just butthurt cause it kicked your ass in Showdown.And no, Calyrex is still the ugliest motherfucker in the franchise
>>58616118Gen 5
>>586161182013>>58616122We don't sign our posts here
>>58616389>You're just butthurt cause it kicked your ass in Showdown.Not even that, he's probably seething Pokemon #1000 wasn't some big Mythical Pokemon but instead a literal monster made of money, a very deliberate self-aware self-jab from GameFreak towards themselves.
>>58616416NTA but personally i hate him because he's a golden string cheese man and gimmighoul was a more interesting concept
>>58616118here's your correct answer
>>58616222it must be so fucking scary to just exist in the pokemon world. just the ghosts alone want to turn you into a ghost.
>>58616118bw was the first game that bored me then gen 7 killed any interest i had in the series
>>58616449Yeah, fuck Gen 2 for introducing dark, steel, held items, weather and genders, what dogshit gimmicks.Yeah, fuck Gen 3 for introducing abilities and double battles, what dogshit gimmicks.Yeah, fuck Gen 4 for introducing the Physical/Special Split, what dogshit gimmicks.Yeah, fuck Gen 5 for introducing triple battles, rotation battles, hidden abilities and the type gems, what dogshit gimmicks.
>>58616444I still don't know why people call him cheese man
>>58616513
>>58616489Literally everything you typed before Gen 5 is a permanent addition, what
>>58616489battle gimmicks are a core part of the marketing, "triple battles" were not.
>>58616543>held items and weatherRemoved in LGPE, a mainline game. Not permanent.>double battlesRemoved in LGPE, a mainline game. Not permanent.>abilities (and by extension hidden abilities)Removed on multiple occasions in mainline games. Not permanent.
goddamn Walking Wake is cool
>>58616118There is an edgy Jigglypuff variant with a vampire fang and legendary tier base stats named "Scream Tail". I'm not complaining, however, as it's the (literal) coolest thing ever.
>The Battle Frontier Project has started
>>58616680i haven't purchased a single pokemon product since reading those words
>>58616118i want to hug a walking wakesuch a fluffy cat
>>58616653Scream Tail does rule
>>58616528Ah I see, it's Americans (or Anglos) being schizophrenic again. Thanks
>>58616118They did Suicine so dirty
>>58616118XY
>>58616202>DigimonThat's a compliment
I can't imagine being one of you niggers still crying about pokemon after gen 1/2. Makes me feel good about the six figures I make, my beautiful wife, and the fact I can still enjoy things without caring as much as the average fag here does.Chad anon, signing out.
>>58616803https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_wzhKhzLUsI think if you go to any country with a string cheese product, you'll find they have a "gholdengo" as its mascot
>>58616938I have never heard of string cheese before in my lifeSeems like gimmick food for children
>>58616907That's awful.
>>58616118The first hint was the amount of Kanto deepthroating in XY, the last straw was when they lied about "ultra changes" in USUM. Anyone still buying these games aftee the 3DS era is beyond help.
>>58616118>>58616136I will never stop being mad that we got cucked out of the fused beast from occulture for this shit
