>Emerald overrated
What? I never see anyone on /vp/ praising those games. It's only Platinum, HG/SS, and B2/W2 that I notice getting any attention.
Black 2
Play FRLG even if you have already played it.
B2
what do we have to roll so you kill yourself, OP?
>>26662589
Emerald's my favorite Pokemon game tbqh family
>>26662589
I used to hear a lot of press over Emerald when it came out.
I already played Platinum, HGSS, etc.

Why was Gen IV so based?
>>26662644
B2 wins
>>26662589
Emerald had a really good "post-game" for it's time. The Battle Frontier was just too much of a challenge to pass up and gave us extra stuff to do if you had finished up on FR and LG by then.
>>26662912
Primarily because of what came after it, but it also deserves credit for recovering from DP.
>>26662526
Emerald
>>26662912
Gen IV also had DP, which are probably the worst opening games of a generation. At least XY had Pokemon variety.
>>26662963
BW were pretty weak compared to Plat and HG/SS.
The lack of a defined Battle Frontier or anything alike to it was also a huge let down.
That's not to say D/P didn't do the same shit after Emerald, but the downgrade of the HM Slave Godsend that was Bibarel into Watchog made me almost die from all the salt produced.B2/W2 were massive improvements on B/W.
>>26662998
BW were the ones where you didn't need an HM slave.

Looks like I'm getting BLACKED again.
Thanks /vp/
>>26662998
You barely need HMs in B/W at all compared to D/P where you arguably need the most.
>>26662998
>BW were pretty weak compared to Plat and HG/SS.
I don't get where this meme comes from, based on what exactly?
What the fuck do you people rank Pokemon games based on? Black and White were a breath of fresh air, a whole new dex of Pokemon with no old Pokemon to tempt me into falling back on staples, a nice looking (if linear) region with a good amount of variety, memorable gym leaders, memorable villains, an actual mix-up to the Elite 4 formula like holy shit.
B2W2 definitely did improve on BW but that doesn't mean the base wasn't still really fucking good in it's own right. This isn't a D/P/Pt situation.
>>26663266
Oh also HGSS is just as bad of a remake as ORAS. They literally didn't even try to fix the complete trash level curve.
>>26662526
How can it be overrated if you've never played them?
Are you literally 12?
>>26663324
Are you literally 12? Because you don't seem to know what "overrated" means.
>>26663266
>Memorable villains
Isn't that literally every organization?
Team Rock was lead by a Mob Boss who only wanted to lead a hedonistic life style at the everyone else expense.
Team Aqua and Magma were wacky as fuck nutjobs who were ecoterrorists.
Team Galactic was lead by a sociopathic autist who wanted nothing more but a world for himself and only with him in it.
Team Plasma... Team Plasma... Why did Ghestis want world domination again?
>>26662526

How the hell could you know they were overrated if you've never played them? Please, indulge me.

>constant praise on /vp/ and elsewhere
Just look at
>>26662802
>>26663662
Being overrated means that a thing gets more praise than it deserves.
B2W2 are not overrated games because they do deserve the praise they get.
Simple as that.
>>26663474
>Team Plasma... Team Plasma... Why did Ghestis want world domination again?
Literally same motivation as Giovanni, lol. People only consider Team Rocket memorable because of nostalgia, they're cartoon villains. The thing about Ghetsis that makes him memorable was his use of deceit and betrayal in order to get what he wants, he was basically an analog of a corrupt politician in the Pokemon world.
>>26662526
I can't believe so many people are going for emerald, I'd rather recommend you B2, OP, but I suppose you should play both if possible.

I was immediately wondering the same thing
I mean it is possible to have a pretty good understanding of the game before playing it but still what
