Is there an actual 3DS Emulator even? Of course you're stuck with DS.

I can bet that a good portion of this board never even owned any DS.

Probably why they defend gen V so heartily despite it being the worst thing to ever to happen to pokemon (asides from all the neat bug types introduced and hidden abilities of course)

Then I wont tell you nuffin.

>>25622854
Gen V was fine.

Could explain why you think it's bad?

BW2 were the peak of the series.
>>
>>25622823
I think Citra is the only 3DS emulator in development
>>
>>25622895
Yeah, but there'd be at least 5 years until it even renders anything.
>>
>>25622893
It's the generation which started putting more focus on story in the singleplayer which really reduces replay value and makes getting to the post game tedious
>>
Stop being poor
>>
>>25622928
>which really reduces replay value
Most people would say that it would be a reason to replay it because of the well done story.
>>
>>25622928

But BW2 has the best postgame in the mainseries so that's where you're wrong

>inb4EmptyKanto
>inb4NothingafterRed
>inb4ORASbecause
legendary capturing, mirage islands and whatnot are not postgame, they can all be done right after you capture Groudon/Kyogre. Only postgame in ORAS is Delta Episode and Battle Resort.
>>
Why would you even want to emulate Gen 6? X/Y is trash any way. You have complete access to the first 5 gens so who gives a fuck?

If you really must play Gen 6, stop being a cheap ass and just buy and second hand 3DS and mod it. I'm pretty sure monkeys could be trained to do it at this point, it's easy as fuck.

>>25622947
Most people would say that the story of pokemon is utter shit and once was enough

Pick one.
>>
>>25622998
Actually every gen EXCEPT 6th gen is available in XY since you know, we only got like 70 new pokemons and the rest were old ones..
>>
>>25622928
BW story was boring as fuck and tried way too fucking hard. Not to mention I had to constantly google what the fuck any of the Pokémon did, because they included nothing from previous games.

B2W2 story was actually pretty good and fun to go through, not to mention the monster selection was also quite good. The only drawback is that you have to play BW first to know what the fuck is going on.
>>
>>25622904
I thought it could 'run' X/Y/Or/As with save files or some shit but was insanely laggy? still good progress.
>>
>>25623026
>trying to say the game with the most postgame content has none
What are you doing nigger?
The PWT alone had more content than the BF.

Holy shit, way to take the fun out of discovery. Of course you kids didn't like it, unfamiliarity scares you.

Is this true?
I just started Black 2 like a day ago and never played the first. I thought it was just going to be the 'emerald' of the series.
>>
>>25623106
Ah so you are retarded then. After all you wouldn't think you're correct about gen six pokemon not being in the gen 6 games especially when they have higher encounter rates.
>>
>>25623122
Are you dense ? Do you know what a hyperbole is ? I'm not saying there weren't but, it would've been nice to get routes with only gen 6 pokemons instead of just 1 or 2 and several previous gen pokemons
>>
>>25623026
be you be dumb
>>
>>25623128
Did you miss the part about the encounter rates?
Oh wait, retarded, got it.

How do they allow the mentally disabled online I'll never know.
>>
>>25623128
I don't think you quite know what a hyperbole is if you think that was one.

>Discovery
>In Pokémon
Pokémon is literally pure gameplay mechanics, you stupid cunt. That's why everyone complains so much about the story, because the game is SO built around the combat mechanics, the story often gets in the way.
That's the reason why nobody cares about "discovering" what each new Pokémon can do by testing its shit. Leave that to animefags or 10 year olds who're just starting to play. When making a team, you need to know each Pokémon's stats, typing and movesets to play properly.

>More content than the BF
You're literally saying you never completed the BF.
>>
>>25623181
>Pokémon is literally pure gameplay mechanics, you stupid cunt.
Yes yes every game is when you boil it down to the bare essentials but then you're removing the aspect most people enjoyed about the series. The adventure and exploration, finding something you liked and using it.
>>
>>25623187
Said the person who's never touched the PWT.
It's quite a feat when they fit several facilities into one with more content to boot.
>>
>>25623203
>adventure and eploration
Then go play Zelda. Pokémon is about trading and battling.
>>
>>25623169
It's not very becoming to cherrypick anon.
>>
>>25623169
Dedenne a shit anyway

Actually likable pokemon that aren't just pastiches of previous pokemon like Clawitzer and Phantump were easy to find
>>
>>25622880
You fucking faggot, hot coffee came out my nose cause of this shit.
>>
>>25623217
>typing out your greentext
You really are a kid aren't you.
Anyway trading and battling have been central mechanics but the game has always been about exploration and discovery since day one.
Especially since it was inspired by Tajiri's own bug catching habits as a child.
>>
>>25623224
There are more routes without any gen 6 pokemon and that's not okay. The most amount of gen 6 pokemon in a route is like 3 or 4, and that's only on a few routes
>>
>>25623233
You know that still doesn't mean your "hyperbole" is correct especially since that same rule applies to every game except black and white 1.
>>
>>25623233
So? That's more to do with the sheer size of the national dex

Kek.

Completing every tournament in the PWT won't take you more than 15 hours. Completing the Platinum BF takes over 50 hours. Completing the Emerald one, easily over 60.

You just proved you have no idea what you're talking about.
>>
>>25623240
How ? Gen 2 to 4 also featured mostly their pokemons in their routes not just Gen 5
>>
>>25623250
>literally only one path taking you 15 hours
So what about Rentals, mix or type specialist?
We're you even aware that the existed?

Also you have your times mixed up.
A FULL PWT run takes about 30 hours.
Plat BF takes 15 hours 17 at most. The teams were pitiful and the gimmicks could easily be placed on the opponent especially when it came to the arcade.

Word of the wide for next time, finish the thing properly before you talk about something you don't know.
>>
>>25623263
>Gen 2 to 4 also featured mostly their pokemons in their routes
One of the biggest complaints about gen 2 is that the game has a very, very poor distribution of new to old mon and it didn't help that a sizable chunk were trade evos. DP had a similar problem.
>>
>>25622893
BW2 were fucking shit games. Gen V is garbage filled with boring and forgettable Pokémon.
>>
>>25623396
Sorry, typo

Gen IV is garbage filled with boring and forgettable Pokémon.
>>
>>25623014

Why the fuck do you even play the games if you consider them "slogging through shit"? Just play showdown or any other battle simulator.
>>
>>25622834
I owned one, I however sold it prior to Gen 5 because I was broke and needed a some extra money for bills, so I had to emulate Gen 5.

Shame, but what can ya do.
>>
>>25622801
Seriously, emulating lots of other singleplayer titles, they don't lose anything. But emulating pokemon sucks, you don't get any of the cool features and compatibility between titles.
>>
>>25625088
Gen 1,2,3, and 4 were fine

It's the new story focused ones that annoy me where there's an NPC waiting at the entrance to every route and town with a wall of text telling me where to go next
>>
>>25623111
There's a reason they were called 2 instead of Grey or something

Bianca, Cheren and N are much better written characters than Hugh, but otherwise the only thing you're missing from BW is a more fresh and different take on Pokemon. BW2 are more standard games in the series

That's what tends to trigger a lot of people who don't like Gen V because it was different
>>
>>25623217
Actually Showdown is about Battling

Battling with cartridges against anybody who aren't your casual friends is retarded. Also there would be no purpose for the story or world to explore if these games were nothing but trading and battling
