Pokemon platinum is the greatest pokemon game of all time, and it's the best that pokemon will ever be.

Best starters, best story, bets antagonists, best protagonists, bets region, best legendaries, best postgame, best waifus, the list goes on

If you disagree your either a delusional old man or an Unovabortion/Kalosperm

Half the reason I finished Pokemon Reborn was the fact that the creator used a lot of music from Mystery Dungeon.

Man I started that game up and took it off because it was edgy garbage. But this might convince me to look past it all.

Fuck off, the legendaries were the worst part of Gen IV. They seriously sound like that kid on the playground made the mup

I really wasn't paying attention to the music the first I played it. Plus Explorers of Sky is more fresh in my head than Red/Blue which I haven't played in fuck long.
>O.o
Don't

>>26622608
They don't even do anything with such powers outside of the movie which really pushed it with the God shit. They just watched over and proctected their domain.

As evident from the failure that was Cyrus and Team Galactic, no one is capable of having them bend reality to their whim. They are far above a pokeball and won't fuck the universe for a 10 year old.
>>
>>26620913
I actually agree. It's so well polished and pretty and they had the mechanics down to an utter T.

Gen 5 had them scrambling with the graphics and Gen 6 just felt pretty barebones.

Platinum had great story, great graphics and a huge amount of content thrown in for extra measure.

I see it as the objective peak of the franchise.

Platinum is overrated as hell. It's basically DP2.0

Some epik fedora tipper makes a team that wants to destroy the world and replace it with a new one in his image. He gets his shit rekt and cries himself to sleep knowing he can't take his cake and eat it too.

Nah Cyrus was either autistic or a sociopath of the highest degree. He didn't want the world in his image. He just wanted it devoid of spirit. He couldn't empathize whatsoever with the idea of emotions and human nature. Apprarently the reason was his parents disowning him or some shit. He got what he wanted when he stayed alone in the Distortion World. It would have been more decent a story if we really got to know him but what we got was pretty bad lame.

All actual features aside, even, Platinum kicked ass. We'll never get a bottom screen more versatile, practical, and useful as the Poketech ever again. I'm so upset that they scrapped all of those cool apps, they were really handy.

Also, the fucking Sinnoh Underground. Evolutionary stones, fossils, heart scales, held items, and shards were never more fun to acquire, but no. That shit's gone. Now we have to farm Rock Smash and Luvdiscs again.
>>

>He couldn't empathize whatsoever with the idea of emotions and human nature
Nah, he was more of an asocial kid who didn't live up to his parents' expectations so he felt emotions were to blame for all hardships.

I seriously hope you're not implying that the gen 3 starters were the best.
>>
Platinum is actually my favorite game as well, OP. But you're dead wrong in a few regards.

>Best legendaries
Fuck no! Title legendaries were awful, and so were the lake spirits. Gen 2 easily had the best legendaries.

>Best starters
Second best behind the originals.

>Best antagonists
I can tell you haven't played Gen V...

Gen 3 was the only gen to get two of its starters playable in Pokken.
>>
>>26623863
A Sinnohfetus that actually likes Gen V? That's pretty rare.
>>
>>26623871
Gen I was the only game to get all of it's starters playable in fucking BRAWL.

Smash Bros... Or shitty Pokken? You tell me.
>>
>>26623871
>>26623888
Both gen 1 and 3 starters are garbage
>>
>>26623885
I appreciate all the games, really. None of them are bad.
>>
Do you guys think they're going to remake D/P at some point?

Seems unwanted
>>
>>26623895
Someone's jealous their shitty starters weren't popular enough to get Megas.
>>
>>26623909
If it's like ORAS fuck no. Platinum made Sinnoh playable.
>>
>>26623909
I don't really want them to do it with the XY / SM engine. They should wait a little while.

If it were up to me, they should take a little break after SM. Do some console games and another Myster Dungeon or Rumble.

Then they can do Sun 2 and Moon 2 or whatever.

And THEN they can consider remaking Sinnoh.
>>
>>26623914
Megas are the stupidest thing to happen to pokemon desu
>>
>>26620913
Been playing since Gold and Silver, and I do sorta agree. Platinum in terms of Gyms and Champion are great, and the characters are pretty good. Personally I think each generation has good and bad starters, and I wish there was some sort of game that mixes Platinums difficulty with BW2s amount of team diversity and the Gen V story telling in general.
>>
>>26623953
Well too bad. They're not going away anytime soon. Deal with it, punk.
>>
>>26623979
I don't give a shit if there here forever, I just think they're stupid

>>26620913
>Best starters, best story, bets antagonists, best protagonists, bets region, best legendaries, best postgame, best waifus, the list goes on
I have to disagree on every single one of those.
>>
>>26623953
I can think of a hundred things worse than Megas.
>>
>>26622594
Region is most open ended and the game is easily the most challenging in the series aside maybe Challenge Mode BW2.
>>
Gen 4 post game was fucking great

What's the earliest you can get Feebas in Platinum?

After you get Strength, on your way to the snowy routes, I believe.

There's a difference between pokegods and regular legendary pokemon.
Its why people are fine with hoopa and celebi but agree that dialga, palkia and giratina jumped the shark.
>>
>>26623503
>We'll never get a bottom screen more versatile, practical,
Words that don't describe the poketch because of how useless the majority of the apps were, also in terms of utility and practicality the cgear, a gen 6 had it beat by miles.
>>
>>26623888
>implying smash matters
Fun fact samurai picks all of the characters for smash.
Pokken is made up of the most popular pokemon as decided by the public.
>>
>>26624430
I remember being so disappointed with that place. I mean, there was no customization and the only thing that happened there were the NPC dialogues.

The gen 4 BF was disheartening too because they all just played the same way and not things like arena or pike.
>>
>>26624185
RBY were more open-ended (after beating Surge, you can literally do the region/beat every other gym in whatever order you want, aside from having to save Giovanni for last) and you could argue it's harder in some respects

That being said Platinum has excellent Pokemon distribution and is the only newer game to retain Gen I's openness
>>
>>26625177
>and is the only newer game to retain Gen I's openness
Shit's linear as fuck dude.
Having the progression of bundled spaghetti doesnt change that.
>>
>>26623811
You wanna say it didn't have the best starters cool, but you wanna say gen 3 did. Go ahead and kill yourself.
>>
>>26623811
This guy actually knows what's up.
3>1>6>4>2>>>>5 in terms of starters in my opinion.
>>
Do you know why this isn't the best game?

They nerfed the whole game bc DP were hard.

Those puruglies were hard
Gym leaders were hard (slightly)
Flint was hard
Cynthia was hard

Platinum nerfed them, and more.
sorry anon, but the best games (difficulty, lore and aesthetics) are HGSS
>>
>>26626354
That's completely wrong, Platinum buffed all of those things. Also, HGSS is piss easy and the blurry art was style ugly as fuck.
>>
>>26620913

>Mismagius and Honchkrow are two of the best designed new evolutions of previous Pokemon in Gen 4
>can't catch either of them in Platinum

REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>
Not when HGSS came right after
>>
Platinum would have been perfect if the battles were faster and if it had repel re-application pop-ups.
