maaaaaan generation 2 is easily the best generation and it's not even close

gen 2>>>>>>>>the rest

gen 2 had the best designed Pokemon ever

until they made bewear in G7, but that same generation also wasted the potential of the fire starter and gave eyes to a berry and a flower crown so idk

I've learned Nintendo is having live streams at Jump Victory Carnival on 16th and 22nd Japan time and both include Smash

I wonder what will be shown (probably just the demo from E3 again).

We do know Nintendo will be reprinting some of the amiibo from the original 3DS/Wii U series on launch day.
Yeah: I imagine it'll just be the E3 demo and nothing more then that, honestly.
Won’t stop 4chan from claiming chorus kids will be revealed
Well this is very relevant now.

From worst to best, here is me judging the Generations.

Generation 6 < Generation 1 < Generation 3 < Generation 2 < Generation 7 < Generation 5 < Generation 4
Generation 6
+Really cool shinies!
+Some cool mega forms. Sure some people hate them because they unbalance the game a bit, but I like them.
+They pulled off the 3DS Pokémon designs well.

-Way too easy..
-X and Y had a very bad story and dull characters.
-X and Y had the worst champion.
-I was not on board with increasing the chances of a shiny.
-I hated the looks of the humans though.


Generation 1
+Good base Pokémon.
+I can see why people would be nostalgic. This game did help boost Pokemon to what it was today.
+Best rival. For sure.

-It did not age well.
-Why the 1/256 chance of missing?
-The fact that special was not split was not the best move.
-The fact that critical hits relied on speed was a bad move.


Generation 3
+Pretty good story with the legendaries!
+Best starters overall.
+The Red and Green remake was cool.
-Characters did not interest me that much.

-Characters did not interest me that much.
-Acess to only 202 out of 386 Poké mon is a red flag to me. Source: http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2015/11/feature_a_pokemon_retrospective_generation_3_-_2002_to_2006


Generation 2
+Legendaries had a good story to them.
+The fact that you could go to Kanto was really cool.
+Split special and improved the critical hit system.
+Shinies were a really good addition.

-Overall, the story was not interesting. The story was not too boring, but it was not the best.
-Characters were not interesting.


Generation 7
+Massive improvment from Generation 6
+Good story
+Good legendaries and ultra beasts
+Battle Royale baby!

-I got bored of USUM fast.
-Removing triple battles was a bit annoying. I was also not really that much of a fan of how they changed some stuff, like making call Pokémon the replacement for horde battles.


Generation 5
+My first generation. I had a lot of fun playing with my sister.
+Really good story.
+Interesting characters.
+Good music
+Hard mode.

-A handful amount of forgettable Pokémon.

Generation 4
+Really fun.
+Gen 2 remakes were fresh and clean.
+Good designed legendaries.
+Best champion for sure.
+Good music
+Physical and Special split was an amazing change.

-Diamond and Pearl was a bit slow. Thankfully Platinum improved on that.

Gen 5 was just really bad. Like....REALLY bad. Even the anime took Ash back four generations

That's not how you spell Gen V though

No, I personally can't stand the layout of the Sun and Moon Games. I hate them. I had the least fun I've ever had with a Pokemon game. Unpopular opinion but saying Gen 1 is the worst is subjective and I would honestly say that Gen 7 is but that's just me.
No. Try playing a game with countless glitches, ugly sprites, slow walking speed (and no running shoes), and underleveled wild Pokemon that make grinding slow and tedious beyond belief, then tell me it's not objectively bad.
I won't deny that Gen 7 has issues but you cannot tell me that those issues are anything worse than the ones I've mentioned for the Gen 1 games.
Red was my biggest worry when I replayed Crystal for the first time since I was a kid earlier this year, and I was actually kind of surprised at how easy he was. The AI isn't great, and you can tank him if you have the right typing. I beat him with a team at Level 55. Now on the other hand, Red in HGSS is a pain in the butt.
Well then.
Not like I could've gotten my Larvitar to that level.
wut

I'm curious how you came to that thought since I thought X/Y storyline was one of the greatest since RSE
I disagree. If anything I thought it was the weakest out of any of the post GBC games.
Also, with a regional Pokedex that has so many old mons, not many new Pokemon in general, pitiful difficulty and slow pacing, I feel that X/Y were definitely flawed games in a hindsight.
Not bad, but flawed.

If someone says that Gen 6 is better than Gen 7, Gen 5 and Gen 4 than they should be banned from the internet forever.

That just means you're not the game's target audience. Nothing wrong with those games existing, a lot of people like them.

Nintendo and anime games exist for yourself.

I mean you can have a game be both fun and have a lot of meaning to it as well.
Nier Automata is an excellent recent example of that. There's some really powerful, deep and meaningful moments but the game is also an absolute blast to play.

Nah we save that for people who think David Cage is anything more than a **** writer.

Sometimes I wonder if your opinions are meant to annoy me specifically.

I know you're just meming but honestly I'm so confused to why Octillery's beta design got scrapped because it was literally perfect for what it was supposed to be
Probably TOO on the nose with the tank theme.

It's still a kids game, after all.

LOL I'm not memeing :'^)

I genuinely think Stantler and Octillery are two of the best designed Pokemon. Although Octillery's beta design is pretty rad, I can agree with that :laugh:

And Delphox has always been my favorite Fire starter evolution. Bonus points due to Psychic typing, which is a personal favorite

Delphox > Typhlosion > Charizard > Incineroar > Blaziken > Infernape > Emboar

Sceptile = Decidueye > Torterra > Chesnaught > Venasaur > Serperior > Meganium

Feraligatr > Greninja > Swampert > Emploeon > Samurott > Blastoise

Not bad, but flawed.


Reminder that Pokechu has bad opinions.

>thinks Gen 6 has the best story
>thinks Gen 5 is the worst generation
bruh, what the hell.
The problem is we got less new Pokemon in Gen 6 than any other Gens, which made that harder and ended up using older Pokemon. I recall one of my runs went like this:

Raichu, Delphox, Blastoise, Lucario, Talonflame, Scolipede - THAT was how bad that generation was not having enough new Pokemon to use. I didn't think it was slow pacing, but it would depend on how well you advance yourself in the story


Gen 5's storyline ranks tied in 2nd with RSE to me. But as far as the Pokemon training, typing, etc goes? Down. The. Toilet. One of the reasons I've never finished BW is because of how BAD the grinding is. The higher you are, the less EXP you get? WTF man I just want to train my Pokemon, not go on a grinding train to a ****ing 80+ hour game

Gen 6 had by far the worst story.
Gen 5 is my 2nd favorite generation and your opinions are disgusting and trash.
