The three official eras of Pokemon.
The beginning: Gens 1-2Golden age: Gens 3-5The end: 6-9
What are these though and where can I buy them?
>>59354830>Golden age
The beginning: Gens 1-4Dark age: Gen 5The end: 6-9
>>59354838I’m from india and i coomed to this post
The beginning: 1, 2Heroic Climb: 3, 5-7Fall from Grace: 8-9
>>59354830>>59354838neither of you were alive during gens 1 and 2.
>>59354805>we're good: 1-3>we're perfect: 4-5>we're so fucked: 6-8>we're so back: 9
>>59354805>we're good: 1-3>we're perfect: 4>we're so fucked: 5>we're so back: 6-9
The beginning: Gens 1-17Golden age: 18 - 23The end: 24-40
>>59354805I'll take it, gens 4-5-6-7 are better than the other 2 eras (especially when you consider hgss are great remakes and oras are at least decent remakes meaning you have decent ways of playing hoenn and johto along side the others)
why the fuck are they out of orderwhy did they put bwbw2 above hgssthey didn't even stack it all even so why the fuck not make sure it was in order at least
>>59354867This.
It is fascinating how many people will remove 5 from a list and make it a dark age or whatever, and vice versa. I'm not even upset at the genwarring anymore, it's mildly entertaining.
>>59354805>>59354830>>59354843what ? no 1st era : gen1 - a harsh post-dystopian world, mosters full of personality despite gb limitations, grounded plot, legendaries are hidden exotic breeds.2nd era : gen2-5 - game improvements, babyfication, world-shaking plot with legendaries3rd era : gen6-9 - 3D, fursonas, friendly rivals, Fairy type, less intriguing maps/caves, attempts at open-world, almost annual releases
>Lumping gen 4 and 5 with the likes of gens 6 and 7I threw up.
>>59355035Reddit is down the hall to the left
>>59355035>harsh post-dystopian worldlol delusional, you're just projecting your view into a monochrome 8 bits game, the actual vibe is just Japan countryside with the occasional big cities.
>>59354805WTF is this?
>>59354805>gen 1-3 are all in console named "Game Boy">gen 4-7 are all in a console named "DS">gen 8+ are all in a console named "Switch"Funny that you only need 3 systems to play 30 years of the franchise:1- Gameboy Advance2- 3DS3- Switch 2
>>59354805The beginning: games released before I turned 10The golden age: games released while I was from 10 to 15The end: games released after I turned 15
>>59354805There are only 2 eras, before pokemon went open world in gen 9 and gen 1-8. Because the formula didn't change at all before that. And no, 3D didn't break the formula
>>59355174Paired like that, the DS era reigns supreme, even with the 3DS games lowering the average.

>>59354830Imagine being icon and year blind.
>>59355324>>59354870>literally hanging around and copy-pasting real opinions to change them slightly for your gen5 hatebonerJesus, some people really are mentally broken.
>>59355348>w-wait it’s not a real opinion if you’re shitting on a game I likefind a better cope
Pokèmon peaked in gen 3
>>59355174you can play all GB, GBC, GBA, DS and 3DS games on a modded 3DS
>>59355353It is when you're claiming Gen 5 is the start of 3D (4 or 6 depending on how you count it) and has a ton of fursonas (ratio of anthropomorphic Pokemon is generally lower than Gen 4 or Gen 6+, and arguably even numerically less than gens with less Pokemon overall).
>>59355368>It is when you’re claiming [false thing]Ah so every post claiming gen 5 is in the golden age isn’t s real opinion. Good to know.
>>59355368Gen 5 was the first heavy focus on 3D and gen 5 has more anthro designs than either gen 4 or 6. Three of the legendaries are men sitting on clouds for fuck’s sake.
>>59354832just keychains they're going up on pokemon center (japan) later this month
>>59354843>heroic climb>7the fall from grace starts at 7
>>59355371So you didn't make >>59355306 despite defending that type of post in >>59355353>>59355375>Gen 5 was the first heavy focus on 3DIn what way? If we're just talking showing it off in gameplay, Platinum did with the Distortion World. Artistically HGSS did a pretty good amount as well.>and gen 5 has more anthro designs than either gen 4 or 6Make a list then, I'll wait>Three of the legendaries are men sitting on clouds for fuck’s sake.So like the mythological thing they're based on? That's like complaining Froslass is anthro despite being based on the fucking Yuki Onna. Are you sure you're not confusing bipedal (Charizard, Dragonite, Garchomp, Haxorus) with anthropomorphic and furry (Blaziken, Lucario, Emboar)? Hell, I'm giving points for Emboar despite also being based on a mythological figure because let's be real it's pretty furry, more than Infernape is despite both of them being based on the same story. There's also weird fucking edge cases like Mr. Mime and the Sawk/Throh (which were based on oni before they cut like all of the shit aside from the colors during development, at least give them horns instead of weird eyebrows) where they're just dudes. Hell, one of the most furry Pokemon and the designated shillmon is barely in the fucking game. And even Yawnfag complains Samurott isn't furry enough.
>>59355393>In what way?
>>59355361Yeah, I was only referring to "official" methods.
>>59355393>B-BUT THEY'RE BASED ON ANTHROS SO IT DOESN'T COUNToh, so no pokemon is anthro then, good to know
>>59355403So in exactly the same way Platinum did with the Distortion World? So not the first, just another in line.
>>59355407>So in exactly the same way Platinum did with the Distortion World?no
>>59355406What is anthropomorphic about Fujin and Raijin? That they're gods of an element? Are a lot of gods fursonas by that metric? I'd ask if you think Zeus is a furry, but given how many women he fucked disguised as an animal the answer is yes but in ways that aren't relevant.
>>59355407>entire point of the distortion world is that it's some abnormal fucked up reality>gen 5 just makes it a normal part of the worldcorrect gen 5 is the first focus on 3d
>>59355411What's the difference? It shows different angles as you move. Is there some other metric I'm not comprehending? If so, could you explain it?
>>59355417>What's the difference?The fact that it's one map and not the entire game
>>59355414>What is anthropomorphic about men sitting in clouds?
>>59355420But it's not the entire game in BW either. There's like three places outside of Castelia that have anything that couldn't really be done in 2D, and one of them is the bridge leading there. Hell, there's in game cutscenes in the previous games that do similar stuff. And this isn't even getting into the fact that Gen 6+ do away with sprites almost entirely outside of item icons, which is such a big deal that these days putting a sprite in a 3D environment is a marketing move (HD-2D, despite every non-DQ game looking like ass) instead of standard like it was on the DS (or innovative like it was in Xenogears).
>>59355423>attributing human characteristics, emotions, form, or behaviors to non-human entities, such as animals, plants, or inanimate objects.So what's non-human about a dude?
>>59355433>so what's non-human about a creature that isn't human?
>>59355431>But it's not the entire game in BW eitherYes it is.
>>59355437S O V L
>>59355445L E S S
>>59355416Man that looks really cool
>>59355445Gen 5>>59355447Gen 8
>>59355436So they're not human? What are they then?>>59355437Again, one of like three areas. Victory Road is another, Dragonspiral Tower, and I forgot about the Battle Subway lobby. B2W2 adds the Marine Tube. Now show me a gif from every map in the game that shows off the 3D in a way that Gen 4 didn't do if it's the entire game. Surely, you can show it off. DQ9 can, you can press L and R to rotate the camera whenever you want.
>>59355437The limited 3d in gen 5 was so charming.Both gen 2 and gen 5 felt like cutting-edge games in their respective consoles, rather than something "behind the times".
>>59355453>Both gen 2 and gen 5 felt like cutting-edge games in their respective consoles, rather than something "behind the times".Gen 5 looks worse than GBA games
>>59355452>d-d-d-d-d-doesn't count!!
>>59355452>So they're not human? What are they then?Pokemon. Are you retarded?
>>59355458Gen 3 looked "fine", it looked like a 1992 game on the SNES.By the GBA era designers had mastered pixel art and it resulted in many masterpieces, RSE/FRLG are good but don't feel like part of that era.
>>59355458It looks better than DQ9, but that's mostly due to art style choices leaving the textures a little muddy and the camera angles doing no favors to the 3D models (if you think the weirdly scaled sprites in BW look fucky holy shit you don't know how good Pokemon has it). Hell, the screen fucking up solid 3D models is still a problem on the 3DS, Gen 7 looks way better emulated (Gen 6 looks like ass outside of battle, the artstyle is just fucked like in RSE).
>>59355467>Gen 3 looked "fine"I'm not talking about Gen 3. I'm talking about GBA games in general.
>>59355469>It looks better than [other bad looking game]no one cares
>>59354805>Tajiriverse and Masudaverse in the same era.I don’t care what monkey made this, it’s wrong.
>>59355445Gen 4>>59355447Gen 5
>>59355472My original point as about games where pokemon felt like it "belonged" to its current generation rather than feeling like a game from a past console.Gen 2 and 5 felt like they belonged and were cutting-edge.Gen 1 looked janky, Gen 3 was like a SNES game, Gen 4 was definitively not using the 3D enough to stand out from a GBA game, Gen 6 was still using chibis for the overworld, Gen 7 I guess could be another one that fits a regular 3DS game. Switch era we all know the answer, let's hope they get their shit together for the Switch 2 era.
>>59355481>My original point as about games where pokemon felt like it "belonged" to its current generationBut it doesn't, because it looks worse than Gen 4 and worse than GBA games.
>>59355487Well I think your opinion is retarded, so that's that.
>>59355476Then list some 3D DS games that look better than it. Surely, if BW is the start of 3D for Pokemon, there must be better looking 3D games on the system.
>>59355465So they're not anthropomorphizing anything? After all, if they're Pokemon, that's just how they are. Do you want to answer the question again but differently this time? It feels like you didn't understand what the question even was. Let me rephrase it. What are the Gen 5 genie Pokemon based on? And a bonus one, what's the difference between those Pokemon and this SMT monsterhttps://megatenwiki.com/wiki/Fuujin
>>59355495>then list some other bad looking games
>>59355507Alright, I've got one. Gen 6, shit looks and runs like ass. Again, not even emulation can save it outside of battle, and in battle it looks the same as Gen 7 except Gen 7 just has more of everything going on so it's better by every metric that matters. Emulation also lets me fast forward through the miserable cutscenes making Gen 7 actually playable.
>>59355521Gen 6 and 7 both look better as 3DS games than Gen 5 does as a DS game.
>>59355505>So they're not anthropomorphizing anything?So you’re retarded and don’t know what anthro means?
>>59355531>attributing human characteristics, emotions, form, or behaviors to non-human entities, such as animals, plants, or inanimate objects.If they're Pokemon, there's nothing human about them, that's just how they are, like how monkeys seem almost humanoid despite not being humans. If they're Pokemon based on something, that something isn't non-human outside of the strictest definition, therefore there's no anthropomorphizing to be done. It doesn't qualify by either metric.
>>59355549>If they're Pokemon, there's nothing human about them,Except for the fact that they look like men sitting on clouds
>>59355320>>59355324Bros really calling an unreleased game the renaissanceHow gullible do you have to be to buy into hype like that kek
>>59355553Behold, a man!
>>59355480Parroting is an admission of defeat.
>>59355463That was so fucking kino, some of the best gyms. Skyla with the cannons was also pretty cool.

>>59354805So WW will be the fourth era
>all these zoomtrannys trying to sneak gen3 in with the original eragrim
>>59355116You only hate Gen 6 and 7 because it's cool to do so
1, 234, 56, 7, 89As someone with severe autism this is how I would categorize thingsIf I was limited to 3 categories however then I agree with Nintendo
>>59355453Gen 5 was not cutting-edge by any means.This was a system capable of Super Mario 64 as a launch title

>>59354836Yes, cry about it
>>59355921Gen 7 hate is somewhat undeserved, but Gen 6 is dogshit
>>59356416Playing gen 7 is the kind of torture the chinese give to their POWs
>>59356436maybe trying to replay it. my first (and only) play through was amazing
>>59356416Explain why
>>59354805>the beginningGens 1-2.>the dark ageGens 3-5. Gen 3 killed Pokemania. Gen 4 alienated the fanbase further with dogshit designs, an edgy plot, and an overly-complicated map. Gen 5 nearly killed the franchise as a whole.>the golden ageGen 6-onward. Gen 6 led to a Pokemon renaissance. It won back older and newer fans with the perfect mix of nostalgia, revolutionary novelty, and streamlining of mechanics. It made Pokemon GO possible, which led to a second Pokemania. Gen 7 shook up the formula and Gens 8-9 perfected it, giving us some of the most polished, incredible games of the JRPG genre.
>>59356305And it's pointing out where you parroted, retardbro.
>Retards in the thread are already coping hard Kekarooo
>>59356447I played SM and USUM, and the only reason I kept playing USUM was because I kept finding great new things about it that appealed to me specifically. If it wasn't for that I would have dropped it, base SM has a lot of problems and it's mostly unskippable cutscenes. Hell, I'll tell people to play USUM instead of SM not just because it's the better game, but playing SM first actively makes playing USUM worse and Lillie doesn't make up for it.
>>59356701No, it isn't. Your bot broke, retardbro.
>>59356500see >>59356359
>>59356718Yes it is. I'm sorry you admitted defeat, retardbro.
>>59356412No, why are you gay.
>>59356723You're even parroting the "retardbro", retardbro. Each day the Kojo wannabes are getting dumber and Kojo is a jeet so he was already clinically retarded.
>>59356757https://youtu.be/yPP5bD8xVhg
Why are autists so insistent on pairing Gen 3 with 4+5, and not 1+2?
>>59356768>You're even parroting the "retardbro", retardbroYou already parroted first.
>>59357213The real Kojo/yawnie wasn't as retarded as you
>>59355324Add Gen 5 to the golden age and we can agree
>>59357211Gen 2 was essentially "Pokemon 2" and meant to be the end of the series until some heroes at GF decided they can milk the franchise forever by adding infinite regions, Gen 3 does not belong with 1+2.
>Gen 1-3Real pokemon>Gen 4-7zoomerslop with retcon hell>Gen 8+Dexcut dogshit
>>59357211They see it as the hardware split since you could trade between RBY and GSC but RSE could just transfer into DPPt, and then DPPt into B2W2.What they ignore is the fact that gens 1-3 didn't have the physical/special split but gen 4+ did, and that feels more like the real generational split. Sinnohbabies struggle to adjust to the old types, but someone that played Hoenn can play RBY and GSC without issue.
