How can anyone play gen 5 and not think it's the most soulful high effort games GF has ever made.
GF was putting everything they had accumulated up to that point into these games and celebrating their history as a successor to Ape Inc. and the Mother franchise

Where can i farm berries though?

B2W2 was close to being a perfect Pokemon game but they locked the Daycare behind the postgame for some retarded reason. Egg moves are really fun to screw around with, but this is also the last good game where you can breed for hidden abilities and you can't even do it when it matters the most

it's [spoier]fun[/spoiler]

The sprites are engaging, not only that it hits its peak pretty early on too, both story and gameplay- wise
The heart and soul of the game is irs story, being both and engaging and complex journey , but not so engaging it doesn’t feel as comfy
It’s just kino
>>
>>58841809
It had the worst starters of all gen
>>
As I got older, I appreciated gen 5 more. Back then I thought it was a poorly done attempt at softrebooting the franchise, but now I appreciate more how they tried to go deeper into the lore and world building of pokemon, something they, by large, gave up on after it sold less than they wanted.

>lets make an entire new Pokédex
>fuck, that's too much effort, lets just make off-brand copies of kantooomon

Where can i get the Unova Champion ribbon
>>
Where do I catch pikachu??

Most don't disagree with that, they usually just think the Pokémon designs look stupid or they hate one of the many changes they made to the traditional formula. I personally think BW was great but flawed, and B2W2 was an unnecessary compromise that was extremely disappointing in the long run.

>>58841809
It has notable flaws such as being the first straight line region that also feels like a straight line and the story is way too overbearing for how repetitive it is. I don't think it's much different from the rest of the series in quality and I also heavily dislike the heavy use of sprite scaling and tweening which just don't look good at such low resolution, though I'd chalk that up to preference rather than an actual flaw.
>>
>>58841820
I think Unova glazing is overdone as shit but b2w2 strikes a balance in its pokedex size, ease of leveling, and speed of getting through early dialogue that makes me like replaying it
>>
I replayed it and found it kinda mid tbqh, the pokedex is too small.
>>
>>58841820
they're fun
>>
>>58841809
Because it's when trannies first got exposed to the series and ruined it for everybody else.
>>
>>58841809
Because when the pixel size does thatvweird thing where it changes it looks really ugly.
Platinum is the better game. Peak art style, music, Pokémon, region, and writing.
>>
>>58841809
People who trash on Gen 5 never played gen 5.

Either that or they are those kind of players that play "hard hackrom" like radical red that make you play with rare candies and fast forward from a boss battle to the next, without effectively playing the game
>>
>>58841809
emerald is the best. bw are shovelware
>>
>>58842186
Cope the post.
>>
>>58841809
by playing gen 3 and 4
>>
>>58841864
>Gen 5 is the only gen without the yellow rat
Holy based
>>
>>58841855
Imagine the timeline when they don't do that and only like half of it is new
>>
>>58841809
note how this post doesn’t actually cite anything good about the game and is just another low effort “it’s peak because I said so” shitpost

>>58841816
>was close to being a perfect Pokemon game
yeah you just have to ignore the non existent difficulty, insulting level of railroading and linearity, terrible graphics, complete downgrade of postgame facilities, the difficulty modes not actually working and being nearly inaccessible, the poorly written story…
>>
>>58841837
enough about sinnoh
