The Old Era (Gen 1 - 2)The Millennial Era (Gen 3 - 4)orThe New Era (Gen 5 - recent)
>>59373506>The Old Era (Gen 1 - 5)>The New Era (Gen 6 - recent)FTFY
>>59373514Maybe Emerald, but you're genuinely retarded if you believe that NDS is retro.t. zoomer who got the ds as my first console
>>59373506>>59373514>The Peak Era (Gen 1 - 2)>The Coom Era (Gen 3)>The Comfy Era (Gen 4)>The "Reboot" Era (Gen 5)>Le Potential Era (Gen 6)>The Movie Era (Gen 7)>The Slop Era (Gen 8 - recent)>>59373522>zoomerYou have to be 18+ to post here.
>>59373522It's always funny to see these uncs not realizing (or perhaps in denial) that certain media is like 20+ years old, they act like these consoles/games are still somehow "new", like their talking points have been stuck in time and they never bothered to update it, always defaulting to muscle memory rather than anything else.The DS is a console from 22 years ago grandpa, DP is 20 years ago.
>>59373506>The Millennial Era (Gen 3 - 4)This easily.The 2nd duology is the peak of Pokemon and the culmination of it all.
>>59373506>fanfic meta
>>59373506Gen 1-2 and it's not even slightly close.
>>59373506The Old Era easily
>>59373549How the fuck do you group games like Strange Journey and that shitty Saga 2 remake the same as Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy Legends 2? The GBA/GC/Xbox makes sense because their tech (while impressive) are primitive enough to get overshadowed by the likes of newer gens. The DS is still new in terms of tech, it's smartphone tier.
>>59373506How you faggots keep messing this up?>classicGens 1-2>goldenGens 3-5>silverGens 6-7>modernGens 8+
>>59373506Millennial would be Gen 1 and 2. Zoomers are the ones that grew up with Gen 4>>59373514Grouping in Gen 1 and 5 is hilarious because those two fanbases infamously hate each other the most, not to mention Gen 5 is mechanically closer to current day than it is Gen 1
>>59373549cool so you'll have no problem with people calling the 3DS and eventually Switch old school, right?
>>59373506>>59373514>>59373529>>59373562>>59374293Nope, this is how its done>GB era1 and 2>GBA era3>DS era4 and 5>3DS era6 and 7>NS era8 and 9Any long running franchise should be split into several different eras because doing just 2 is regressive and undermines the changes that have occured over time.
>>59373506>The Slop Era (Gen 1 - 2)>The Pokemon Era (Gen 3 - 5)>The Nu-Slop Era (Gen 6 - recent)fify
>>59373514Awww the lil zoomzoom got upset
>>59374362Aww... the little Zoomie gonna cry over the big and scawy genwunners?Masuda leeched off the groundwork and success Tajiri laid, buttercup.
>>59373506Gen 1 and 2 era definitely. I wish Tajiri had had one more gen in him. But it is what it is.
>>59373514fpbp
>>59373549the New Testament is still called that even 2000 years later because the "new" isn't literal, you autist, it's simply there to indicate it is newER than the rest
>>59374329>order by consoleShouldn't generations be labeled by consoles at this point?
>>59373514>The Old Era (Gen 1 - 4)>The Soft Reboot (Gen 5)>The Slop Era (Gen 6 - end of time)here, now it's correct
DSCHADS are the most powerful race in the world
>>59373529The youngest zoomers are 16 right now. If he’s a zoomer he has a ~85% chance to be of age.
There will never be another time like the world consuming culture bomb that was gen 1 pokemania. Good bad or indifferent, you really did have to be there for it to understand. Also related is that it was pre 9/11, another cultural vibe that will never come back, and you either experienced it or you didnt.
>>59375198GBA+DS was the best.The gen 1 remake, Emerald, Platinum, the gen 2 remake, BW(2), etc, you could experience all the first 5 regions in different forms.You just need a DS Lite which can play GBA and DS games.
>>59375235If there was another "pokemania" in a form of a gen 1 romhack, how'd you feel?
>>59374305Yes. That's true
>>59375321hold your horses the gba sucked
>>59376508gba was peak dipshit
>>59373506*vs Rhydon
>>59373506>zoomoid desperately trying to make Gen 3 and 4 a millennial thing because she's ashamed of her generationMillennials played Gen 1 and 2.
ACTUAL ERAS:>Pokemania (Gen 1-2, 1996-2001)>Dark Age (Gen 3, 2001-2006)>Zoomer Age (Gen 4, 2006-2009)>Renaissance Age (Gen 5-6, 2009-2014)>PoGoMania (GO-Gen 7, 2015-2018)>Death Spiral (Gen 8+, 2019-Present with no end in sight)
