Just finished HGSS, should I skip Platinum and go to Gen 5 next?
>>
>>59400560
No but my autism says you should've played Platinum before HGSS
>>
>>59400654
he should've played Platinum and skipped HGSS

>should I skip [a good game]
Why? Do you have cancer and you're about to die in 1 month? Just play Platinum > BW1 > BW2 in that order.
>>
>>59400560
Just play what you want. Pokemon games don’t have to be played in any order.
>>
>>59400654
Platinum is after HG/SS and mentions events that happenes in those games while vice versa doesn’t happen at all.

Diamond and Pearl is before HG/SS but Platinum specifically takes place after.
>>
>>59400877
What the fucking
>>
>>59400560
Play Following Platinum then play Black or White then the sequel matching the game you played. Then play X or Y, then Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon (They're basically just the third version to Sun and Moon), then Sword or Shield + DLC, then Scarlet or Violet + DLC, then you're done.
>>
>>59400944
B-but I thought that the story of USUM is different from Sun and Moon and people say it’s worse
>>
>>59400949
It is but USUM adds a ton of side quests and post game stuff which makes then the superior games overall.
>>
>>59401017
Why couldn’t they just of made USUM as a DLC? I feel like you have to choose between better story or more stuff or play 90% of the same game twice
>>
>>59401029
It was still a 3DS game and they probably didn't want a DLC with multiple gigabytes when people had small SD cards.
>>
Bruh, why's the freaking bird shiny? I want a shiny monkey... It's been a while week.... Give it to me already...
>>
>>59400654
Why would he do that? Platinum spoils HGSS
>>
Alright, I'll play Platinum, get some Mons that I might like, then move them to HGSS to level up a bit, then off to Gen 5.
>>

>shiny hunting in emulators
Just use a cheat code at this point.
>>
>>59400560
I would play Platinum a bit, but if you get bored just drop it. You aren't missing anything, the game is kind of mediocre and bland. Especially coming off something like HGSS.

garbage post. do not listen to this anon. All games gens 1 - 5 are all fun and definitely worth playing

Why would you skip one of the best pokemon games to play the first dogshit pokemon game.
>>
>>59403773
>Especially coming off something like HGSS.
It's the opposite - HGSS is absolutely boring as fuck to play and I usually stop playing after the third gym. Platinum's a lot funner with shit like the VS Seeker and a much better pool of Pokemon.
>>
>>59400949
it is worse. people who say it's better because it has more side content are stupid. you will not give a shit about the side content by the time you get to it because playing USUM is a soul-draining experience.
