I personally put the Eras like this Gen 1-2: Pokémania Era, when the series had it's explosive start and was pretty much a household name right off the get go. Gen 3-5: Stigmatized Era, when the popularity of the series dwindled down, and the stereotypical audience for the series was...

Any Pokémon game that has been released for 5 years or longer should not be considered Modern Pokémon.

Yeah honestly I think B2W2 is mostly carried by it's unique side content. After replaying it multiple times in the past, the main game just feels average to me. Sw/Sh with the DLC is definitely an honorable mention on my new top 5 list alongside BDSP and HGSS.

Looking back at this, I clearly was seeing this through rose-tinted glasses, so here's an improved list. 1. USUM (Lots of postgame content such as the Battle Tree, Ultra Wormhole Legendaries, Poke Pelago. Although it's less than B2W2, you get more useful rewards compared to B2W2) 2. SV with DLC...

Same (Including the personal bias stuff), with 6 as a runner-up. There was so much to be hyped about during GO Mania up to LGPE. GO as a whole, Ash Greninja, Ultra Beasts, the Legendary events, the GOATED animes... God I miss the 3DS era...

People need to stop talking exclusively about the mainline games when talking about "The Best Generation of Pokémon", because just the mainline games as a whole don't paint an accurate picture of the era. Like if people took into account the anime, Gen 5 would have been seen as overrated a year...

It was Early 2018, I was 10 years old, and there was this card shop that me and my dad would go to for PTCG Tournaments. I was pretty bad and didn't want to learn (I was more focused on the SNES Classic they had). I would try different strats out (like Mewtwo GX and EX + Lunala Prism Star), but...

I do not want Pokemon games to be harder. I was replaying PLA and got to Arceus and got defeated 8 TIMES by it, and I was ready to break my Switch from the stress. I play Pokemon to relax, not to be a tryhard. It's why I rarely play ROM Hacks, they are too just difficult for me. Plus I hate...

The Best BBL Champion Kieran SEMI-COMPETITIVE STRATEGIES AND TEAM COMPOSITION. Need I say more? Champion Leon I usually criticize BS Level jumps in the Pokémon games but this gets a pass because of how fun it is. The theme, the atmosphere, the team, honestly hit really hard for 12 year old...

Many people put the start of the "Golden Age" at Emerald and FRLG. Unrelated note: IDK why people see HGSS as Gen 2 solely bcuz it's Johto. It's like saying PLZA is Gen 6, BDSP and PLA are Gen 4, LPGE is Gen 1, ect.

I did in 2021 and tbh, the dialogue and pacing really wasn't an issue for me (except at the beginning)

Honestly I feel like Gen 6 and 7 absolutists will be in the same group of "ThweeDeehsers" since SM turns 10 next year.

Gen 5 Pokémon fans have ruined Gen 5 for me. I LOVED Unova, and B2W2 is my second favorite Pokémon game aside from USUM, but the fans have killed my love for the region. More specifically, the MFs who say that anything after Gen 5 is shit. Like, how TF can you say that the games after Gen 5...

Like imagine going through a Special Champion Stadium while everybody BUT the Neo-Champion (most likely a child since most Neo Champions are the protags or rivals) knows you're hammered.

Update: So it seems that Z-A will release in October...

Not my hot take, but this is definitely a searing hot take (that I agree with partially). (We got 3DS Era Elitists before GTA6)

Modern Pokémon isn't easier for the most part (Friendship, no set mode in SV), it's just players growing up and getting better at the game. Most major trainers in the series (Sans Gen 7) have the same IV spreads (Champions usually have 30 IVs across the board minus SV's (But that's because Sada...

Update 3 Weeks Later: Yeah... about that... It might already be happening... So one night I opened YouTube and a short autoplayed from a Gen 5 fan, so I check the comments... ...They're actually divided... It was either Genfivers, People sick of genfivers, or gensixers and genseveners...

Bringing the GTS to the Mobile version of HOME was a good idea since it prevents people like Adventure Snivy (and copycats) from repeating what they did on the 3DS.

I think the DS Era of games are the new Gen 1 in the sense that people are seeing it as the peak of the franchise and everything that came after as worse in comparison. I mean, yeah they were great games, but they all had flaws. DPPt's Routes lacked variety. Like almost every Route had a...
