Move Platinum up 1.
Move B1/W1 down 1.
Move D/P down 2.
Move Emerald up 1.
Move R/S down 1.
Move Crystal up one.


Platinum + B2/W2 best games.
The more I play HG/SS, the more problems become apparent, but for now they can stay up.

Entirely optional iirc.
>EXP Share
Actually one of the best parts of the game. Cuts down on grinding by a ton. The games aren't easy because of EXP Share, they're easy because of the horrible teams the AI has. Also, Gen 3 isn't any harder. The only halfway challenging Pokemon games are the gen 4 and 5 ones.
>SEVENTY
Quality over quantity. Most of the new pokemon are amazing designs (Malamar, Tyrantrum, Aegislash..) as opposed to gen 3 which had mostly forgettable mons along with some utter dogshit with a few gems mixed in.
>What is post game?
None of the gen 3 games except for Emerald have any post game either, and Emerald's was pretty dogshit. The Battle Frontier is boring and grindy. The only reason people liked it was because it was new and novel at the time, but its dogshit by modern standards.

>>
>>25718431
I don't like ORAS but they're better than R/S. Not Emerald though, Emerald is genuinely great.
I don't like D/P, they're steaming garbage but Platinum is arguably the best game in the series. HG/SS are okay, most certainly better than G/S/C as the remakes at least attempt to fix the hilariously bad level curve in Kanto.
I started with Red version, yet I'm not enough of a fucking retard to pretend they've aged well in any way whatsoever.

What makes a Pokemon game good, RBY has. Just because its grafix are 8-bit doesn't mean it "didn't age well" the fuck? Boiled down, all Pokemon games are exactly the same. It's the little things added over the years that will make them better or worse.

Not only that, but you think DP are dogshit, but Platinum is best in the series? Who fucking thinks this (besides retards)? Platinum did nothing to DP other than increase surf speed and alter the map / story progression a little bit (and nerf the E4).

So you think it's so much better because?

Anyone who says RBY is "broken" are fucking parrots and nothing more. No glitch has ever stopped anyone from enjoying the game. They're rare occurrences that require special conditions in order to pull off.

Platinum is not as slow, they increased the battle speed as well as the surf speed.
Trainer battles can actually pose a threat, the level curve is fucking amazing in Platinum. The best in the series and it doesn't even need the Lucky Egg.
Movesets are 10/10 and the AI is good enough to use it well.
Fantastic pokemon variety, D/P dropped the ball on that so hard by not letting you see a large chunk of the new pokemon.
Battle Frontier is actually present and is amazing.
Important battles are all difficult.

It has a few niggling faults, the game corner for one, but it's one of the best to this day.

>>25718480
Wrap/Multi-turn moves in general.
Garbage movesets and limited tms.
Focus energy doing the reverse of what it should.
Perma Freeze.
The Special stat being the best shit ever.
Perma sleep if the enemy is a tiny bit lucky + faster than you.

Those are all problems you'll almost certainly encounter during a run, no setup or special conditions required.

It boggles my mind that anyone thinks Gen 1 is objectively better than any other gen, they literally all added on content to the base game and nothing more...

I can understand if they took shit out of the previous games (I.E BF from OR/AS, no B/W2 tier postgame in X/Y etc.) but gen 1 was barebones compared to literally any other game in the series and if you think otherwise take your nostalgia goggles off.

I guess the mindset is more content = worse game,

>>25718572
I agree for the most part. But new shit isn't what makes a Pokemon game good. There may be new shit in Gen II for example, but the in-game is more of a chore than Gen I. You piss through Johto in 5 hours, then you get to Kanto and it's wow it's fucking nothing.png. Maybe if you could catch some Pokemon OTHER than fucking Kanto mon in Johto, I'd like it as much or more.

RBGY- Dark, mysterious, filled with ghosts and the supernatural, the world felt huge and filled with scary people who had dark intentions. Satoshi Tajiri deeply involved in its creation.

>>25718257

pokemon battles are looking annoying and slower through time glasses because newer versions have more dynamic and animations, which are more enjoyable than older system, everyone were playing older games [on console] and grinding normally for years...until now
>>
>>25718588
Gen 1 is easier than gen 2, the AI is complete shit and you can beat the game with a team of high 40s, if we are going by quality > quantity argument then gen 2 still wins. It offers better game mechanics, bug fixes, WAY less brain dead AI and QoL changes such as efficient HM uses, improved bag, improved PC etc.

I appreciate actually giving an example though.
>>
>>25718617
>Gen 1 is easier than gen 2
While all Pokemon games are so fucking easy that it's hard to tell the difference between them, Gen I is harder. I raped my first Johto E4 with a Feraligatr who knew Ice Punch, Surf, Bite, and Rock Smash. That being said, my first Kanto E4 I solo'd with a Fearow, so.
>>
>>25718598
I will tell you if you notice me senpai :3
>>
>>25718590

noticed that too, all newer gens are just so fucking... they firstly made game, then they scaled it for autistic kids... while we were learning to play games right through our mistakes ect. I never had problem with 1st or sec gen although I didn't knew english except move pool and stuff
>>
>>25718624
While its true that gen 2 is easy as shit I still think gen 1 is easier thanks to the crippling AI, but I can see how gen 2 would be easier to solo since the level curve was pretty garbage. I mean in yellow you can take out brock with just pikachu and tackle even though he has ground types, thats pretty fucked up. The Elite 4 also have some stupid movesets like barrier dragonite and blue's exeggutor, not to mention the nonsensical items they use like super potion.

But yeah both gens are pretty piss
>>
Perfect list
>>
>>25718663
all that and still ORAS is easier
>>
>>25718679
As I said I understand hating OR/AS since they took out the challenge, I still think the EXP Share is fine but giving it at the beginning is retarded, or if you do scale the damn game properly.

If anything I chalk OR/AS up to improper scaling like gen 2, but way worse
>>
>>25718663
no but gen 2 games can be easily ended with only typhlosion, i mean the game is broken, there are no water type rock type or ground type gyms on johto, the only threat is chucks poliwrath and by the time you get to kanto your typhlosion already knows thunder punch and/or is too strong to send every thing to go fuck himself with a flamethrower or an earthquake

There was also whitney's miltank rolling out and clair but yeah that is pretty hilarious how that happened, I havent done a solo since I was a kid so I didnt know how easy it is to solo the game compared to gen 1, but gen 1 is also piss easy to solo. Using 6 pokemon is what I base my challenge off of and gen 1 was slightly easier to beat than 2 was but both were super easy.

I say we just agree both gens were shit easy for different reasons...

Based solely on my enjoyment from the time I played them. I excluded G/S/C and R/S because I was too young to properly judge them.

I played BW solely for the story after playing BW2 and feel they both compliment each other nicely, so I count them as one whole experience.

XY, while doing a lot wrong, also had a lot of new interesting things and it was my first time playing a pokemon game on release so I had a ton of fun.

Platinum speaks for itself.

FR/LG/E were decent from the time I played them, nothing super special.

HG/SS is extremely boring. I can't even get past the 3 badges without going full ADHD. Funny how you'd expect it to have that nostalgia factor since Gold was my very first game I owned, but it just doesn't do it for me.

ORAS pretty much copy and pasted a lot from X/Y which made it so boring for me.

You honestly cannot tell me you do not see the poor aging in RBY. The game's environments are boring compared to today's Pokemon games, it's glitchy, and there are no natures or held items.

Take the Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. This is a prime example of a game that's aged finely. The graphics hold up, it's fun to explore, and there's always something new to find. But RBY? Nuh uh. Nope. It's just a broken glitchy mess that's only defended by people blinded by nostalgia.
