nintendo

just to add them back later

instead of just admitting "yeah we just dont have the time to make them all"

no the excuse was working on animations

The excuse changed pretty often

which a couple are decent, but they ignored everything that actually matters for gameplay outside battle

then the bootlickers just lied

becuase i remember people parroting all the time "there are too many pokemon now for the games to hold them all"

WHAT ANIMATIONS

considering how poorly optimized the game size is, they could probably cut the file size in half to fit twice the pokemon

THEY'VE BEEN USING THE SAME MODELS SINCE GEN 6

Isn’t the data literally still in the games

yes

people looked at them and they have the same polygon counts as gen 6 models

they are just the 3ds models on the switch

at least the lets go models were new

I feel like the jump to 3D basically killed any chance of a good new Pokemon game

yep

They’re so wrapped up in being shitty at 3D modeling that they don’t have the time to actually work on meaningful game design

look at all the games Ohmori was a director role for

It's not even that hard to make decent story with enjoyable enough challenges

black and white best games

dont @ me

black and white 2

They're just so focused on keeping everything excessively dumbed down to meet their target market

they are the same story

i count them as the same

Gen V was the peak of the series

people hate it

i dont know why

not anymore

gen 7 and 8 made them see the truth

"hee hee gen 5 has trash bag pokemon becuase its trash"

They’re really solid games with one of the only meaningful stories in the franchise

i didnt mind 7 that much tbh

Gen 5 is known as the gen without much of anything new added

i liked alola for what it was

gen 1 has the ball pokemon that rolls

better than kalos

But as a game I can accept it as the best

I think the only worthwhile addition past gen 5 is mega evolution

when they were first added

It's also one of the better ones for competitive

Gen 5 had animated sprites ye

it also had the best storyline and evil team so

Well

Rainbow Rocket though Dolf

Ghetsis was the best boss

Team plasma secretly being frauds kind of kills it

were they?

i think it was just Ghetsis that was the fraud

I mean in the sequels they show that there was a pretty meaningful amount of them that did believe in what they were doing

thats why there are the 2 factions yeah

They enslaved fucking kyurem for their plans

yeah

Ironically enough it was the first game where the motivations of the evil team weren’t black and white

Ghetsis did

he wanted to control pokemon

the rest of the sages didnt

They're not even keeping up appearances by the sequels

except Zinzolin

i did like the memory link feature

i wish there was more opportunities for pokemon to use it but they wont so

I will say though the music is consistantly good i feel

gen 5 was peak

I would pay a pretty unreasonable amount of money for a version of gen v with HGSS style following Pokémon

Gen 4 was peak, gen 5 is good too

hit me with some of that driftveil city

congrats they won't ever do that because it would take effort

or some of that nimbassa

Just download some shady romhack

route 10 was the best track in black and white

gen 4 remakes will have 4 routes total and give you the legendary for free

its a shame that route got removed in the remakes

oh by the way

If I get lost enough in the sauce of disassembly I might just try hacking it together myself lmao

i was wrong

Gen 5 had some of the best endgame boss music

the legendary dens in sword shield are using rental teams

so thats why it shows pokemon moves

so you know what you are getting
