Y'know, for all the hate they get, I really do like the gen 4 evos. They all look really dang powerful and perfectly round out the species they come from.
>>59660134who invited walrein to the function
>>59660134walrein isn't a cross gen evo retard, Glacia had one as her ace in the Hoenn Elite 4. We're not doing this mandela effect bullshit.
>>59660152I did, it's entire visual screams gen 4 evo.
Enjoy it while it lasts. Until Gen 10, they had the most cross gen evos in a generation. You'll see what I mean next year.
>>59660134Gotta also love how they gave absolute pieces of trash like Chimecho or Sudowoodo baby forms instead of evos for some reason

>>59660817but what about walrein
>>59660134>>59660174That's an interesting point actually. What other pokemon from other gens scream gen 4 evo? Exploud and crabominable could fit right in imo
>>59660134Most of there are better than their earlier counterparts.Frosslass feels more like a sidegrade than an upgrade which is ok.Gallade is an ugly shitmon and the only bad one in here. Kill it!The Eevees are some of the best, if not the best.Weavile is an improvement.Dusknoir is probably the biggest upgrade and elevates the entire series out of mediocricy and forgettability.Probopass is funny because he is a jew.Mismagius is probably the best.
>>59660924>Gallade is an ugly shitmon and the only bad one in here. Kill it!Put your name back on, Tranta Claus.
>>59660900honestly I do feel gen 3 has a bunch of these, even if they are fitting ends. exploud and shiftry are two good examples of that philosophy, despite actually being fitting ends for their evolution lines. >>59660947>Put your name back on, Tranta Claus.what one are you referring to here?
>>59660134I've grown to like most of these over the years aside from Magmortar. I was deeply depressed as a kid knowing cross-gen evolutions were basically dead due to Megas taking over, but I'm glad they've made some what of a resurgence starting with Legends Arceus. Here's hoping Gen 10 brings another big batch of them, and hopefully with better designs
there's like no middle ground here. the good ones are really good, but the bad ones made me not mind that crossgen evos died until gen 9
>>59660963They also feel like they got the gen 2 stride back, too. Gen 4's are great, but there's something about the gen 8-9 ones that just feel... Right, y'know?
>>59660134i dunno why people hate on them, the only really bad ones are ambipom, magmortar, and dusknoir. plus some of them are actually 0pretty popular overall, like weavile, gliscor, porygon-z, the eevees, etc.take a random sample of 22 final stage pokemon from across all gens and you'll likely have a way worse stinker ratio than that.
>>59660988Dusknoir seems to be pretty polarizing. It's either someone's favorite pokemon or a piece of shit that ruined dusclops (but then some also say dusclops ruined duskull)
>>59660973Some good candidates for a new Evo in my opinion would be the likes of: Toxicroak, Cacturne, Spinda (new Evo negates the uniqueness of the spot patterns by making them constantly spin around it's fur), Maractus, Veluza, Tropius, Spidops, Gogoat
>>59661001I'd argue dusknoir fits the most due to how many gen 3 lines have the first stage look completely different to it's evolutions (seedot, whismur, and trapinch are good examples of this)
ZA should have had cross gen evos instead of megashit
>>59660891dude nobody cares
>>59661019Megas felt more like a Hoenn gimmick than a Karlos one.XY barely had any megas. Enemies got even less megas. It felt more like an obscure side mechanic.The ORAS Hoenn remakes had all the megas, including mega starters, mega Latias/Latios and of course the fabled Mega Rayquaza.And most megas are originally from Hoenn.Diancie, a mythical, was the only Karlos mega and not even usable in XY.
>>59661032I cares
>>59661001the people who like it are generally people who played PMD explorers and got attached to his character in that game. it doesn't really appeal to fans of either duskull or dusclops, the design is mediocre, and it's nothing to write home about in battle.
>>59660134What's the best way to play gen 4? Is there a good solid romhack that covers gen 4 but makes the event Pokemon and trades realistic to catch?
>>59660891its garbage flop, spheal is more cute and popular
>They all look really dang powerful and perfectly round"Perfectly round" as I most of them are quite literally obese spheres? Yeah, I guess. They're still ugly as sin though.
>>59661097yeah, those kinds of hacks exist for every game. even SV have hacks like that. just go look for one.
