Why did the best gen have the worst anime?
>>26859529
The first season was pretty good
The worst gen derserved the worst anime
what are you talking about, DP had a great anime. I don't know why you posted that image. You couldn't be a unibortion, could you, OP?
>>26859529
What? Diamond & Pearl adventures was great.

Gen 5 failed at:
>main games
>side games
>cartoons
>popularity
>>26859529
Xy is pretty awesome.
>>26859529
>best gen
Gen 5 was average at best. The thing is Gen 6 was so shitty it made Gen 5 look good.
>>26859529
The anime's quality is inversely proportional to that of the first game of the gen.
>>26859529
I've noticed a distinct pattern of good regions getting bad animes.
And vice versa
Unova/Johto = shit anime
Sinnoh/Kalos = great anime
Kanto/Hoenn =meh

How is Pokemon still alive after all that?
>>26859638
Gen 5 had good Pokegirls.
>>26859638
Because Gen 5 did have good games, you fucking retards. Of course it's cool to hate Gen 5 so you'll do what you must do.
>>26859638
Casuals don't care
Source: BW/BW2 sales still being great
Pokemon is huge enough to stay afloat anyways even if they did have a bad gen
>>26859652
THIS. Skyla is one of Generation 5's masterpieces.
>>26859638
Say what you will about gen 6, even though I fucking hate it, it sold more than BW.....
Also Pokemon is like nintendo's number 2 thing and 15 million sales isn't a joke, it more than most companies dream of having
>>26859668
Casuals do care. Casuals hated the new Pokemon and they're one of the main reasons why Gen 5 is so universally poor received. They can't even find their beloved Pikachu in Unova.

>Casuals hated the new Pokemon
Casuals hate every new Pokemon though. That's nothing special.
>>26859714
This
But X and Y has
>First wild Pokemon is a Pidgey
>Virdian Forest
>Kanto starter 2
>Snorlax where you actually use a pokeflute
>free lapras
>Mewtwo in a random cave after the elite 4 with someone standing in the way
>Legendary Bird
There's a reason a majority of Mega evolutions are gen 1 mons right?
>>26859714
In BW you can only find new Pokemon until you've beat the game. People don't want this, hence XY and SM being absolutely crammed with your Kanto and Johto buddies.
>>26859767
Gen 2 porkmon looks more lile gen 3 shit than gen 1 honestly, but since johto was basically a addon pack for gen 1 then people group it with gen 1 when on its own its fucking shit
>>26859638
Japs and autists will still buy pokémon games regardless of quality.
>>26859529
The quality of the anime is always inversely proportional to the quality of the gen itself.
>>26859638
It was just an experimental filler generation to bide time while they prepared for the switch to 3D, so they didn't really care too much about how it did.
>>26859584
Black/White 2 were the resolution of the firs ones

>Ash just throws the pokeball at the Pidove, like it's his first time
>Only evolves one of his starters, halfway
>loses against the new character, who is short one pokemon during the big league
>That scene where he's battling elesa and just leaves mid-battle to switch his team
