This image is correct, although ORAS should be just underneath holding the triangle out.

Sun and Moon have a solid chance of entering into the pantheon.
>>
>>344205490
ORAS was so much of a let down. I feel like this is complete bait
>>
>>344205490
ORAS was garbage, what are you even talking about?
If any game is 4th place, that'd be Emerald.
>>
>>344205743
Not really. Outside of no Battle Frontier I loved the game and felt like it was a wonderful step up from X/Y (barring no customization, which also really wasn't a huge deal to me although I'm glad it is back). Fantastic region to explore with tons of side areas, a huge ingame dex with a great selection, and great new stuff like dexnav and soaring. I think the hate for ORAS is largely overblown by people, although I will say the postgame is a significant step down from BW2 (even though I liked Delta Episode).

BW2>Platinum>HGSS for me although I love all of them.

ORAS has an actual plot and post game content. Legitimate post game content. Please choke on the dicks you swallow daily.
>>
>>344206380
Platinum basically fixed everything shit with DP. The ingame dex was amazingly improved, it was faster, the gyms/trainers were better, tons of more battles were added, a battle frontier was added, along with a postgame quest, and it was just awesome.

BW2 had an enormous postgame with this badass dungeon full of high leveled trainers, and the pokemon world tournament was fantastic and (imo) more fun than either battle frontier.

Platinum was the last legit pokemon game I played.
By that I mean I played White and Soul Silver roms, but I dont count those because for both I had to use exp glitches to keep my attention and they were restricted to my pc.
Platinum was a good note to end on, I reset every other pokemon game a million times, but I never reset my platinum before selling my friend my DS.

HG/SS is fine, because while I personally preferred OR/AS, HG/SS is better as a remake, doing far more than the originals did, while OR/AS was just coasting on better source material. OR/AS just added the Delta Episode, which was in retrospect a coincidentally perfect appeal to my personal tastes and wouldn't impress anyone else as much, and a bunch of scattered Legendary battles. HG/SS added back in a lot of things from the Kanto that were taken out of G/S/C, like the legendary birds and more expansive Seafoam Islands, like Cerulean Cave and Mewtwo, like a Safari Zone, and that's objectively an improved way of remaking a game. Not to mention how the additions from Crystal were better integrated into the whole of the game not just compared to OR/AS' rather quarantined Emerald material in the Delta Episode, but even in comparison to Crystal itself in some ways. I still like OR/AS better, but objectively HG/SS is the greater accomplishment.

Platinum is good, there's really nothing else like it in the series. Can't wait for EternityDiamond/InfinityPearl or whatever they end up being called to contain the Distortion Episode and the Origin Episode to expand on its direction. Generation IV was deeply flawed at the beginning, risking an inability to actually achieve the promise of games that made God a Pokemon, but Platinum ironed out a lot of those flaws, and if it showed any weakness of its own it was the struggle between its advanced story and the limitations imposed by a primitive formula.

B2/W2 is shit that coasts on a Pokemon World Tournament postgame designed for people who haven't just given up on the Kanto games yet while going back on every advancement that B/W made. B/W could have been the foundation of an entirely new era of Pokemon, capable of shedding or better integrating the formula that weakened Platinum, and then its sequels went back on everything in the name of Kanto-pandering. Everything wrong with X/Y was just an exaggeration of B2/W2.

How can you ignore the gigantic dungeon in the city/forest, the cool shit like the underwater castle, the season N fights, and going back to the old towns from BW1? Postgame in BW2 is absolutely worthy of praise. Nothing about BW2 was kanto-pandering, that makes zero sense.
>>
>>344204813
>People still sucking BW2 dick
Lost all the charm and sense of a fresh start BW had because they crammed all sorts of old Pokemon in there. If you owned BW, there was no reason to get BW2 beyond the new move tutors and egg moves and owning an AR made that moot anyway.

I think walking recharges your O-powers, so it does technically help your hatching. Also the eon ticket in ORAS. I love the idea of exchanging arena teams though, the crappy 3 pokemon teams of secret bases are eh.

Never understood why people bitch out the level curve in GSC/HGSS. If anything the broken level curve is the only thing that has ever made the main campaign (aka excluding post-game, battle facilities and rematches) of a Pokemon game feel almost difficult, even if that difficulty is ultimately shallow and easily offset by grinding.

>Why is cutting out established pokemon and replacing them with wal-mart brand versions of themselves considered good?
Because we had the same fucking Zubats, Geodudes and fucking Tentacools for four games already. RB are my favorites, but come the fuck on.

BW only having new Pokemon available before post-game was a breath of fresh air, and again really gave the game a sense of a fresh start. The visuals are exactly what I'd always wanted Pokemon to be, moving sprites, and I wish they'd just stuck with those instead of moving onto ugly 3D models. BW are what I wanted DP to be visually and thematically, they felt like a "real" sequel and not just the same game in a slightly different setting, with the same Pokemon.

BW2 was just BW again, but with old Pokemon mixed in. Don't give two shits about the story, don't give two shits about post-game as it's just fighting slightly better AI opponents to get TMs/move tutors I can already get with my AR, real "post-game" is breeding and battling other players.

That's just the immediate stuff I remember, there were plenty of other things too. I really wish Gen 4 hacking was a little easier, I'd love to make a HG/SS "classic" hack in which all of the positives of the remakes are kept in but it adheres more strictly to the aesthetic, music, designs and so on of the originals.

You can't get all the TMs, hold items or move tutors pre-postgame, genius. You kind of need all that if you're going to play competently.

Postgame is always just grinding against slightly better AI opponents for the TMs and hold items you don't have yet. I see no reason to grind on that when battling other actual players is infinitely more rewarding and enjoyable.

not that anon but see >>344213850, upping the graphical fidelity and adding new features out the ass is great but some things legitimately felt wrong. Again, the appearances of locations like Ilex Forest and the Lighthouse are good examples, or Kris, or how the tone they went for with many of the remixes was just completely different to the original intention.

HG/SS is objectively better but GSC still has its charm

Pokemon copying itself over and over again is the biggest mistake of the series.

Again not that anon but the compositions evoke different tones and atmospheres entirely, even outside of the generational/quality difference. If Gen 2 Goldenrod was recreated faithfully in a Gen 4 soundfont, it'd be leagues above both versions.

Nostalgia /IS/ a factor. After all, why do a remake if you're going to fuck people's nostalgia? I don't think GSC tops HGSS but there are certainly a great number of things musically and visually (and atmospherically I guess) that HGSS dropped the ball on.

Not that keeping them at a level equal to the trainers you fight is very difficult, but you might as well argue that only SL 1 runs count or to not use weapons in rpgs. It's not like you're going out of your way to play it that way.

But no, using a full team of equal level is not more difficult. It only requires a higher time investment which is not an example of difficulty.
