No, but I'm a gen 1er

I feel like that's wrong, except for the music, but Hoenn is probably my favorite region overall.
Also, getting shunted over to Dewford after Roxanne is super lame.

I remember being impressed visually, but like, anything would have impressed me moving up from the GBC. I liked the retarded ecoterrorist plot (even if even back then, I wondered if they ever spent two fucking seconds in a science class), and I very much liked the crazy biomes the region had, a volcano area, a desert, a rainforest, all the sea routes, the city in the crater, etc.
The Gen 3 Pokemon are my favorites, too, and not just because of how many of them I'd shove my whole dick into. ヽ(＾Д＾)ノ

Sinnoh is arguably better, but everything about the Gen 4 games is a slow mess. I should really look into finding a hack that just makes the games faster, although I guess I could just use fast forward in an emulator. ┐(ﾟ～ﾟ)┌

Gen 2 is my actual favorite to play though, even if Johto is a fairly boring region. I've probably replayed Gold like 16 times, and Crystal like 4. I can see Gen 3 feeling lazy coming off of G/S/C since Gen 2 absolutely feels like a direct upgrade (even if it isn't strictly one), while Gen 3 felt even at the time like it had gone back a bit (no day/night was some bullshit too, the game had a clock chip).

>I feel like that's wrong, except for the music
Like i said, it's a feeling i've always had. Like an aura of anti-coolness that isn't tied to the actual quality of the game. A lack of edge, sort of
For reference, here's my assortment of the other classic pokemon generations, again, simply by feeling, and the vibes they give off to me
Gen 1: The pioneer. It just is
Gen 2: Homely, and cool in a subtle way
Gen 4: Slick, but rough around the edges
Gen 5: Modern and slick
>I can see Gen 3 feeling lazy coming off of G/S/C since Gen 2 absolutely feels like a direct upgrade
I didn't mean that gen 3 was lazy. I meant that i associate gen3 with feeling lazy

Gen 3 was the last good Pokemon generation, it went to shit after that (maybe not as much in Gen 4, but definitely in Gen 5)

i never bother with anything besides teh DS games, black and white pearl?? idk its name. best one i played was teh remake of teh original games to teh gameboy advance. Leaf green? idk

What's wrong with gen 5?
B/W are good and B2/W2 are god-like, imo

>>121121
- Dropping the japanese-like setting in favour of generic Big City, USA
- Primitive 3d graphics. From the perspective of time the game somehow looks worse than the 2d games
- Pokemon designs got worse, more simplified, less expresive and less creative (partially connected to the point about 3d graphics)
- Difficulty is insultingly low

There are no hard pokemon games, though

pokemon sucks

BW's Pokemon designs are kinda not very good overall. I tolerate them all these years later, but back when the game came out, I wasn't happy.
Unova is a giant circle with few branches. It feels like a massive step down after traversing Sinnoh.

I dunno what >>121127 is going on with difficulty, it isn't really easier than gens 1/2/3 (which are all easy), and the graphics are just those of a DS game, the same kind of 3D as seen in gen 4 but better and with a higher framerate.

Maybe it was confused with gen 6? That shit was easy to the point where I literally mashed A through the Elite Four and Champion without looking at my moves or swapping Pokemon, fuck that game.
Plus, X and Y were so badly programmed that despite being ugly, they were one of the first 3DS games to not support stereo 3D everywhere in gameplay. Sure, it's a gimmick, but no one else fucked up so bad that they had to drop it as a feature (and god help the framerate in the places you could enable it).
