what's the \vp\erdict?
>>
Unreplayable, there is just zero replay value here.
Just dump the ost from the cartridge and listen to it while you fap to the girls, that's about the best experience to still get out of it.

The beginning of the end. SWSH is terrible, ugly, washed out colors, just a genuine piece of shit with terrible "realistic" graphics, lot of niggers and pajeets everywhere, and the design of both characters and pokemons look fucking gross and retarded, the villains and gym leaders look like fucking clowns, there's nothing serious about them, older games were much better because the design of both characters and pokemons were more simplistic and they didn't try to force that "realistic" crap or those new modern gimmicks like gigantamax, get that fagshit away from me.

You're thinking of SV. SWSH, while low quality still looked cartoony. The uncanny psuedo-realism slop didn't start until SV
>>
>>59492565
3rd worst Pokemon game on Switch
>>59492615
True. SV is so bad its unreal how it's even possible
>>
>>59492615
this, rather playthrouh it again than play SV's barren boring Open World any day
>>
Playing SworShiel right now and I like the DLC stuff they added but I really wish they were baked into the game more
If you do Isle of Armor stuff during the game, you become super overleveled and the game is already as a baseline easy but I wish I could actually use the pokemon I catch in these zones for a more substantial time in the game
>>
>>59492565
Better than a little bit less than half of every other Pokemon game.
I've gone in extreme detail on why this game is good here before but I will summarize.
This game provides the most streamlined, entertaining, amazing feelings of any Pokemon game. No other game has given me chills and made me feel more like a pokemon trainer than this. The stadium flights and dynamax are the best gimmicks we've ever had. The Rose fight was awesome, catching Zacian was cool, Eternatus, Bede, the sights across the region, the designs and evolution methods and legendaries. The DLC is actually really cool and feels cool to exist in.
THE ONLY THING THESE GAMES ARE LACKING THAT'S EXTREMELY NOTICABLE IS DEPTH. THAT'S IT.
People will say no post game but they're not playing the third version (dlc enabled)
>>
>>59492865
Also they are unironically the best looking and best sounding Pokemon games ever. Not counting Gen 1-5
>>
Visually it's the 2.5 HD game casuals say they want. I miss UBs.
>>
>>59492637
What's the 2nd worst and the worst one?
>>
>>59492636
But he is right about the niggers and jeets though Kalos also had a niggger problem.
>>
>>59492868
they should take blackwhite remake for switch 2 using the old sprite art animations and make it so you can visit all gen1-5 regions in it
Sort of like a monster hunter generations release but pokemon
>>
>>59492909
SV is the worst and imo ZA is 2nd worst.
>>
>>59492923
Holy shit you’re not afraid to say anything
>>
>>59492567
This.
It's the only set of games I just can't replay. The environments are ugly, like they tried to do too much and too little at the same time, and while I don't necessarily dislike the Pokemon designs, the human character designs look atrocious to the point you could put 2 characters next to each other and they could com from completely different franchises.
>>
>>59492944
What about Legends Arceus and LGPE? I haven't played any of the switch games but the discussion seems to be that LA is one of the better ones.
What did L A do right what ZA failed to do?
>>
>>59492867
>They’re the best looking/sounding games when you exclude most of the series
lol
>>
>>59492951
LGPE is probably the best Pokemon game made for Switch. It looks nice, it's polished, it plays well, it's fun for a while. Having Eevee jump in off your shoulders and make little grrr sounds as you initiate a battle makes you want to encounter random battles more so than wanting to start avoiding them in other titles to make it through to next area etc.

But it's targeted at an even younger audience than usual, so it's dumbed down a lot and simplified and leaves a lot of potential on the table had it been targeted for regular age or older audience. Which I find a little odd as gen 1 nostalgia would appeal to adults, though they might get more sales from younger kids who knows.

PLA has a high user score but you probably had to play it on release, it's a bit rough (not as bad as SV) but it plays well and has some fun to it, but ultimately lose interest after a couple hours desu (2-3) and that's it. I also hate going through reams and reams of dialogue with no voice acting over and over in different areas before being able to start playing the game properly doing "quests" that's effectively just run from point A to B to C and back to A again, it's like busywork and designed to use up time, it's not really immersive or making me feel part of the story, which so many games are guilty of now including indie games. They think I want to spend 30 minutes reading with no sound without being able to play the game properly.

Playing well/runs well shouldn't be a selling point especially for any game that's console exclusive as it's specifically designed for that console.. SV is utterly inexcusable.
>>
>>59492980
TLDR, none care.
>>
>>59492565
The low point of the series, and it will likely remain that way forever.
>>
>>59492952
I exclude the first 5 gens because they are fundamentally different and I'm extremely biased. I'm also considering this from a pov of the 3ds games upscaled.
>>
>>59492980
LGPE is cozy and fun but you can't use candies without making things insanely easy. It's the same as in SV when you have enough rare candy and exp candy to get any Pokemon to lvl 100 before your even half way through. I hate how the system is like this now bring back audino?? Make hidden abilities hidden again? Make it hard to get a perfect Pokemon? We have champions now so hopefully they stop doing all this retarded stuff just for comp
>>
>>59492565
Still the worst original games in the franchise.
BDSP was the worst overall
The Switch Era was a fucking disaster, and I'm glad it's almost over.
>>
Every Gym Leader in Pokemon should be like Raihan.
>>
Every Gym Leader in Pokemon should be like Whitney/Cynthia

>>59492991
I get what you’re saying it was just funny the way you worded it. Would’ve been easier to just say 3D games at that point
>>
Sword & Shield has caused irreparable damage to this board.
>>
I know that tard that calls them “SS” is seething kek
>>
>>59492603
and that isnt saying much
>>
>>59493006
A nigger?
>>
>>59492565
the pizza was right
>>
>>59493006
>3 streamer trainers in a row (Raihan, Iono and Canari)
I really hope they don't make another actually
>>
>>59493101
Kids want to be ecelebs more than anything else. We will continue getting eceleb trainers forever.
>>
>>59493107
Bleak.
>>
>>59493101
Raihan was fine, just wish his personality wasnt sucking Leon's dick like the rest of galar

I'm biased cause i hate vtubers so iono was annoying/industry plant tier and Canari being yet another electric vtuber has me concerned but Canari being the misanthropic gamer gremlin kind of streamer was a little funny. I feel like when it comes to designing the type specialists they tend to pigeonhole themselves into the same kinds of themes and ideas so its gonna be lame if vtubers are just the go-to for electric speciliasts from here on out
>>
>>59492565
Shittest games in the series. And that's a competitive field to excel in.

>>59492615
At least SV have a decent story and fun characters.
>>
>>59492565
As someone who's replaying all the switch games it's the best one on the switch
In order:
>SWSH
>PLA
Powergap
>LGPE
>SV
Powergap
>ZA
>BDSP

I'm currently playing through BDSP and I can't even turn this stupid shit exp share off
I think ZA is so low for me simply because it underdelivered after Arceus showed some kino and only lacked content
>>
>>59493697
>At least SV have a decent story
Ngl it's fucking hilarious how they tried to spin Rose's "in 2000 years from now humanity will perish and I want to stop that from happening" in a bad way and trying to get upset from not being able to what is essentially a soccer-equivalent tournament with all that's going on in the world right now
>>
>>59493710
Somewhat good ranking if we assume you aren't trying to play any game autistically. If this assumes the player is going to grind for one thing or another, awful list.
>>
>>59493719
Rose's motivation is actually pretty reasonable in a vacuum, the issue is he's too retarded to realize he lives in a world where sources for energy/fuel are hilariously abundant. But no, awakening the Space Fishbone for its eradiated cum is the only way for the energy crisis to be solved.
>>
>>59493710
literally my ranking, based.

Nowhere as good as the classics but still fun, and I'm grateful that they introduced my new favorite pokemon and gave him a cute training arc where he grows with you

Maybe they'll rope live on stream when their "career" never gets off the ground.
>>
>>59492565
Boring
>>
>>59492565
It was ok.
If it didn't try to do the open world wild area thing then it'd probably be much better, the zones are more memorable than SV. But the whole wild area thing ruins it. Should have stuck to standard gym leaders.
The badguys sucked. The gyms sucked, the dlc was fucking weird. With how they try to slip the pancham in with the story so you got to go back and forth felt awful.
Dexit was horrible for the series.

The pokemon were cool, the rival were cool, music was good. Graphics outside the wild area were fine. Dynamax was mid.

All in all, 5/10 with dlc.
>>
>>59492565
genuinely the worst pokemon game in every single aspect
>>
>>59492565
Dexit's effects have proven to be detrimental to the franchise.... much like the actual Brexit
>>
>>59495233
Based Urshifu enjoyer. Kubfu is behind Nebby as my favorite “story arc” legendary in recent times
>>
>>59496284
Didnt ask
>>
>>59492565
The dogs are the worst box legends in the series. Just completely shit designs in every way.
>>
>>59492565
Better than SV
>>
A pox unto the franchise.
There's not a single thing introduced by swooshie that's been beneficial towards the franchise as a whole. It's been nothing but cons and negatives.
An indelible stain. That, sadly, someone at TPC is absolutely obsessed with and keeps pushing and shoving down everyone's throats to this day. We could maybe, just maybe, see some semblance of recovery if they had admitted it as the failure it was and decided to quietly ignore it as much as possible. Alas, the complete opposite is happening. It's Pokemon's Poochie.
It's also very sad that Great Britain as a whole was wasted and perverted into such an abomination.
Galar and its consequences as a whole has been an absolute disaster for Pokemon as a setting and the greater franchise as a whole.
>>
>>59496928
Can you give examples? Maybe besides the dexit and the exp share?
>>
>>59492565
Worst games we've had so far, even SV was better.
>>
>>59492565
Still mad. Still hate it.
>>
>>59492565
tied with the lets go games for the worst games in the series.
>>
>>59492565
It and SV destroyed this franchise quality wise
>>
>>59495240
We will live to see that.
>>
>>59492565
it sucks
>>
It was...Just ok.

SV and this did some quality of life things that I can appreciate but that's about it. The switch games are honestly forgettable and they just exist.
>>
>>59499839
Actually I wanted to add that my favorite switch age pokemon came from SV though- Meowscarada and Daschbun
>>
>>59499860
>Daschbun
It's Dachsbun.
>>
>>59492565
He was right
