X and Y saved Pokemon after the disaster of Black and White and you know it.
Apologize.

the disaster was D/P and B/W saved it and X/Y improved that. Then they got a bit tarded for a bit, but seem to slowly be coming back around to being okay again. My opinion is correct because its not an opinion it is objective fact.

Prove it

it's pretty sad that gamefreak had to pander to genwunners in XY to boost sales. genwunners couldn't handle the greatness of masuda's magnum opus. BW isn't a failure, the community failed BW.

i apoloize

>>59106604
How was BW a failure when it's among the top 10 highest selling DS games, sold nearly as much as DP, and sold millions more than HGSS which nobody considers a failure?
>>
>>59106604
I wish Pokemon would've died after BW2 since it went to shit right after
>but muh sales
Don't care, the Switch era games have sold more than every other gen except Gen 1, yet they're total shit, and the 3DS era games sold more than Gen 3-5 despite being worse also

XY saved Pokemon from being too good. 2004 to 2012 was the highest quality Pokemon has ever been. It says a lot when the "worst" games released during those times, DP aren't seen as bad, but flawed; flaws which were fixed with Platinum.
And then XY came out and was the first game to noticeably be worse than the other first versions, with sterile models, shitty animations for a gimmick, overreliance on gimmicks to keep the franchise "interesting", worse balance than what came before (weather wars were bad, but not nearly as bad as Mega Kangaskhan and the reign of Fairy Types.), a worse story compared to what came before, and a metric fuck ton of other things.
It's baffling that GF outright allowed XY to release in the state it released in, but I guess that's a sign of things to come, because with that game's unfortunate success, it paved the way for even bigger blunders such as SwSh and especially BDSP.

Basically, Kill yourself Kojo. Three bullets.

>>59106706
XY was released literally broken.
Saving in Lumiose would brick the game unless you downloaded a patch.

These were debunked.

its on wikipedia so it must be true

>>59106604
There's nothing wrong with Wack and Blight, they play the way they were designed.
>>
>>59106904
We know you weren't born yet so you wouldn't know this, but that was definitely a thing.
>>
>>59106957
Worked on my machine.
>>
>>59106620
More like if BW didn't exist and B2W2 was gen 5 the audience wouldn't have felt betrayed. Then they did the same shit for gen 7, except the base game wasn't garbage.
>>
XY was just B2W2 with a gimmick and an even more retarded team and champion
>>
XY was just B2W2 with better gameplay like PSS.
>>
>>59106970
You sure strung some words together then posted. Too bad it makes no sense.
>>
>>59106604
Yes it did.
And literally all it took was actually having a large pokedex.
It's THAT EASY to make a good pokemon game.
>>
>>59106604
If they saved pokemon why is the series so fucking shit today?
>>
>>59106620
Black and white is LITERALLY the genwunner game.
>>59106994
because you're probably a graphics fag or a """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""difficulty""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" fag

What is Pokémon Colloseum

Why lie?

>>59107122
BUT COLOSSEUM IS TOO HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The funny thing is... objectively, from a business stand point it is true.
Masuda went to all that trouble to build a more intricate and heart felt story, more elaborate characters, bold decisions like focusing on all new cast of Pokemon to make the region stand out from the past.... and in the end he discovered that all it needed was to just give Charizard and Mewtwo two new super sayan forms and the rest is superficial
>>
>>59106971
The PSS is very useful in 2026
>>
>>59107161
This but unironically
>>
>>59107154
yeah like charizard bridge and dragonite skeleton oh wait
>>
>>59107127
It's no lie.
I just wish they kept the glitch when they made ZA.
>>
>>59107154
>Masuda went to all that trouble to build a more intricate and heart felt story, more elaborate characters, bold decisions like focusing on all new cast of Pokemon to make the region stand out from the past.... and in the end he had a grunt kick Munna and just rehashed the stories of his previous two games
FTFY
>>
>>59107154
Ah yes the heart felt story that doesn't exist
>>
>>59107172
Despite retarded grunts, N is still a great character
>>
>>59107163
>>59107171
You truly do not rest yawnie
>>
>>59107176
Ah yes the caveman who said I HAVE AN OPINION which was a joke opinion that edgy 12 year olds had during gen 1
>>
>>59107185
You can make a better arguments/bait that this im sure
>>
>>59107171
Lysandre could've been a good villain if he wasn't so obviously evil from the get go. Really says a lot of XY's quality that more people started liking him because of USUM and especially Legends ZA.
>>
Guys guys guys
just listen to me for a second
I think
that we should PROTECT NATURE FROM THE LAND DEVELOPERS!!
>>
>>59107195
Ghetsis could’ve been a good villain
>>
>>59107171
gen 3 and 4: the evil team wants the power of the legendary.
gen 5: Ghetsis only wants the legendary for its god like status, his Hydreigon is stronger.
>>
>>59107210
He his already
>>
>>59107184
How do you kill that which has no life
>>
>>59107195
Who gives a fuck about villains? They're all shit and always will be shit. You just want to be an 2deep4u retard.
>>
>>59107212
>Ghetsis only wants the legendary for its god like status
Then he stole another one and just made it a weapon to exploit.
>>
>>59107212
gen 3 and 4: the evil team wants the power of the legendary.
gen 5: the evil team wants the power of the legendary.
>>
>>59107230
>Who gives a fuck about [story in a JRPG]?
>>
>>59107237
What's the point of building an evil team if you're not aiming for power of some form?
>>
>>59107245
this is a monster collection game not an rpg doebeitsonhoweveralbeit
>>
>>59107245
Characters are characters, not story
Also who are you quoting?
>>
>>59107251
Most monster collection games are RPGs weirdly enough.
>>
>>59107245
this but unironically
>>
>>59106604
Sales at the start of a generation reflect the quality of the previous.
