Today is the last day of Gen 9 being the newest gen in the series. Soon, we will lose Koraidon, Miraidon, Ogerpon, and Terapagos as our mascots and gain new ones. Let's have a thread in their honor.
Thank fuck this gen is over. A generation filled with game-breaking glitches and wallpaper on the side of city buildings.But sure, I suppose I'll miss it.

>>58964159Did the entire game's budget go into this cutscene?
>>58964133The last day kiki being our shy shota rival.
>>58964133I hated that the Raidons were the traversal method for the region, they felt so far removed from legendaries. The DLC mascots kind of make up for it, especially Ogrepon but the whole Paradox thing in the base game fell flat for me.We've probably still have a few months to wait until we see the box legends for Gen 10, unless GF really wants to blow their load for the 30th anniversary, but I hope they don't look like fucking vehicular animorphs at the very least.
>>58964133I'm gonna miss gen 9. What a kino gen.
>>58964193The legendaries are wind grandpa and wave grandma and they have temples.
>>58964133Easily my favourite legendaries of a gen, Terapagos looks worse in comparison because it gets the mysticism and "only shows up in the ending" thing from other legendaries but its whole lore and how its legend has shaped the culture of the region is pretty kino, Ogerpon is a pretty lite legendary but has charm and is my daughterfu, loved getting her masks back in Kitakami, and the raidons are THE BEST game mascots ever made by far, they are easy to understand juiced up versions of a common pokemon, doesn't feel over the top "omg the world is at stake due to its power!" bullshit, they support you all your adventure literally and metaphorically, they improve as you progress in the plot replacing HM but not with random pokemons like in BDSP/LA... they even have their own character arc and act as your pseudo-starter AND final boss at same time for fuck sake, they are so great.Even the final boss music is THEIR theme (not the enemy Raidon's theme, but your Raidon's theme), cheerful and energetic after they overcome their trauma (relating to Penny), gain strength (relating to Nemona) and defeat the professor's delirium (relating to Arven) with the leitmotif of the south province were you first meet them. And then you and your four, not three, four friends, go back home with the same notes. God I love them so fucking muchhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4SpE6Mb2ychttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUKwiA-Lhzchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MaGvqUQxhMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnXYtaT-mq0
>>58964133I thought they were fun. The nature of it being open world meant I could capture a bunch of different Pokemon with minimal road blocks.They're far from perfect, but I got 2 playthroughs out of them + the DLCs and used totally different teams for all 6 runs.
>>58964133Aren't you forgetting someone?
>>58964279Also this onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkdkMEgWDio
>>58964133Rest In Piss (except Ogerpon, love ya)
Good riddance Paldea
>>58964133Rest in fucking piss!
>>58964133Scarlet and Violet might not have been the best games, but I'd be lying if I said I outright hated them. This friend group might be the greatest attempt at one in a Pokemon game I've seen so far. Shine on, SV. You were unfairly judged.We don't talk about Legends Z-A.
>>58964133Gen 9 should've been Orange and Purple. Orangebros are now eternally fucked.
>>58964133Ogerpon is my nigga
>>58964133https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDWFmCQ3GLKjkhyeEJ3erWGZ1lf1r8PQGAll the bugs and glitches are still funny as hell.
>>58964209As long as they don't turn into boats like the King of Red Lions or some shit, I'm fine with that.
>>58964133our heroes.. and Koraidon
>>58964309No
>>58964133The lizard bikes were kinda dumb, but ogerpon and terrapagos were pretty good legendaries.Honestly probably the best ones in a long time
>>58964133Damn, I'm actually gonna miss this Gen....
>>58965232>>58964133the game releases until novemberyou still have like 8 months
>>58964209>>58964309Pecharunt's parents didn't actually die, they were transformed into wind grandpa and wave grandma like how the loyal three were transformed from chumps to legendariesSource: it was revealed to me in a dream
bump
>>58964133Terapagos felt like such a flop compared to the other three here. The anime is the only thing giving it some saving grace.
