What is your favourite Pokemon game, /v/?
>>337503783
the best one.
Plantium
Silver soul/heart gold
Black/white
Platinum followed by Black 2
The last genuine Pokemon game that I bought is Pokemon Crystal tbqh. I guess it's my favorite then.
>>337503783
Black 2
Gotta be Platinum
Empoleon the GOAT
HGSS followed by Pt
>>337504814
>BW instead of BW2
Pfft, yeah ok anon
White 2 or Crystal. Yes, HGSS is better than Crystal, but I have nitpicks about a lot of the aesthetic choices in it.
Sapphire, but that's just because it was my first game. Didn't get a portable until i was 6 years old and it had already been out for a year by then.
>>337505383
What if i prefer BW?
They are the same game, just a matter of content.
And before i forget fuck off.
>>337505513
Yes and BW2's content is far, far greater in both quality and quantity.
>>337505513
Someone has his pantsu in a bunch...
Silver desu
Mainline- Heart Gold
Spinoff- Puzzle League
How is Platinum better than BW2?
prolly Emerald for me
also, picked grass type every gen besides 2
It disgusts me that there are people who actually enjoy B&W.
I couldn't play more than an hour.
Emerald
I don't care that it's not the best, it's my favorite
>>337503783
Prolly black and white. But than again I pretty much like all of them.
>>337506058
you sure this isn't digimon m8?
>>337506180
Then which of the games do you like if you think BW sucks anon? I'm a Gen1 fag and even I found BW to be enjoyable
>>337506058
This gif is really funny
>>337506420
Gen 1,2 and 4 are my favourites ignoring remakes.
>>337504814
BW was my last pokemon game
I think I am done with this franchise
>>337506028
Objectively BW2 is better.
I just liked Platinum more.
>>337506572
Pokemon Black/Black 2.
Although XD Gale of Darkness still remains a close second.
Orre best region.
I'm gonna hold off on impulse buying Sun/Moon to see if they actually made it a fun experience with quality content this time around
I was tepid about gen 6 but I'm gonna need to see some more stuff of interest before I slap down another 40$ for the same game

>>337506180
This. Gen 5 is really boring and has some most of the worst designs in the franchise. The rotating pixels turned me off as well
>>337507379
Playing Colleseum for the first time, walking into Pyrite Town, and hearing this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxQxXpRDLDU
The Orre games were so atmospheric for their time.
Blaze Black 2/Volt White 2
>>337507671
Is there a way to emulate the gba link cable yet? I want to play colloseum and gale of darkness but I won't bother if I can't use my mons later and in game
>>337507298
The start of every generation is mediocre at best unless you're a diehard fan.
>>337507982
but 6 was mediocre all around
>>337507982
True.
Platinum<<<<<<<Diamond and Pearl
Emerald<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Diamond and Pearl<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Ruby and Saphire
Sucks we'll never get Epsilon Emerald to fix the mediocrity of ORAS.
>>337508216
Oh the irony
That's what people said about 5 when it was new
>>337508216
Kalos never got a third version or sequel to salvage the region, so yeah.I personally felt ORAS was pretty good, on par with Emerald overall with each having different strengths, but could've been amazing with a bit more time in the oven to bring over some of Emerald's good features and to add a bit more new than they did.
>>337508715
I don't know why they didn't import Emerald's take on a Battle Frontier. It could have been a combination of that and a giant landmass like from Sinnoh's postgame.
>>337503783
Pokemon Platinum. Got this trading card game collector's edition box with Pokemon Pearl, still have it after 10 years.
Emerald any day
>>337509014
The official explanation as to why they didn't include Emerald's Frontier was that most people these days wouldn't have the time or patience for the Frontier. Which I don't think is necessarily wrong, even in 2005 most of my friends never bothered with it for long other than the Factory because it was too hard for them with no knowledge of IV's or EV's, but considering just how many people play Pokemon there's still tons of people who would play it and want it. Even if ten million of the fourteen million that buy the game never even touch it, there's still four million you're disappointing by not including it. Plus the deeper mechanics of the games are more well-known, understood, and accessible than ever. So it's still bullshit.
Though honestly other than the Frontier I can't think of much Emerald added that would mesh with RS remakes. Mirage Tower and Trainer Tower are about it. We actually got the Wallace Champion fight during Delta Episode. Marine/Terra Cave and the changes to the main scenario so both teams were villains likely weren't used to keep the version exclusive aspects. I honestly can't think of much else of note it added.
RIP Pokemon
Only good now for actual 10 year olds that don't know many good games or manchildren that can't just move on
>>337503783
you posted it
my least favorite is by far ORAS, I had no more will to play that garbage about halfway through
still finished it, but had no fun doing so
other pokemon games I enjoyed very much were FireRed/LeafGreen and Platinum
X/Y was fine, not the best but it felt a little freshfuck gen VI for introducing megas though, worst mechanic to ever be implemented in this franchise
I really hope they ignore that ever happened and remove that mechanic from now on, even though that'll obviously not be the case
>>337510691
The Safari Zone expansion was a good idea amd I think it would need to be implemented across all of Hoenn to work. For instance, the Desert would have had an expanded area with non-Hoenn Pokemon there after beating the E4. Same with Falibar Town/Meteor Falls/etc. Basically the region as a whole would unlock 40-45% of the map with updated areas to explore.
That, or repeat the Sevii Islands where you scrap the idea of a Battle Tower altogether and just put work into designing a kickass archipelago neighboring Hoenn(which would have been the best excuse to include Faraway Island, the Soul Dew E-Reader Island, and the Lugia/Ho-Oh Island, etc).
Hell, with all of the references to X and Y (which apparently ORAS is a prequel to?) Game Freak could have taken the postgame content a step further and included some visit-able regions of Kalos.
Let's just get into full shitflinging with lists.
>>337511831
Oras goes in shit tier m8, xy goes in average.
Fix the list
>>337511948
ORAS are based on RS, which are better games than XY, which makes ORAS better, even if ORAS was more insulting than XY due to what it wasn't.
>>337504814
First Post
Best Post
There has never been a region with more Bro-Tier Pokemon.
>>337511831
Put Platinum in front of Emerald, switch B/W and HG/SS
>>337511697
Yeah, I would've loved another Sevii Islands deal. It's probably my favorite part about FRLG. Though the Eon Ticket and Southern Island are already in ORAS.
The idea of the whole region expanding after the National Dex reminds me of Pokemon Vega, which is probably the one romhack I've played and really enjoyed that makes a whole new region. Once you beat the champ every dungeon expands with new areas in them with new Pokemon and Gym Leader rematches. I really loved that aspect and would love to see an actual Pokemon game do it.
I wouldn't want to revisit Kalos, especially only a year later.
>>337511413
>>337511831
made a shit list with my shit opinions
>>337505463
Like?
BW2 > HGSS > XY > BW > RSE = ORAS > everything else
Probably Platinum honestly. Was the last one I could sink more than a hundred hours into and I thought it had a good region and good pokemon. BW was irredeemable trash as was X/Y. Didn't even buy or bother with BW2 or the RS rerelease.
>>337512779
I just don't like the colors chosen for a lot of things, or some of the music arranges, or how the GB Sounds doesn't actually play the original music but just changes the soundfont for the rearranged music, or the male MC's redesign, or how there's no option to turn off following Pokemon. And also the changes to the story.
As said, nitpicking.
>>337511831
Don't mean to imply the outdated ones are necessarily shit, it's just how I rearranged things.
Diamond.
It's the only one I could be bothered to finish
All of the games from Gen 4 since they're the least awful.
>>337513216
Swap ORAS with their originals and you are good
>>337514986
Vanilla RS is outdated by both Emerald and ORAS. There is no reason for it to be part of the actual tiers.
