I heard that it's fire dark, I think? I'm hoping it is
But I'm bummed that it's another one standing on two feet. :/ I thought it would've been cool to see a tiger design on all 4 paws.

Megas are just temp, Alolans are just reskins/typings of gen 1, and legends because theyre special.

I was talking about pokemon that arent "special (Megas and Legends)" & uniquely new (Not Alolans) if that makes sense.

I forgot to include the new unique pokemon whoops. I'll fix that now >.>

I'd really like to see a fire/ice pokemon. I think there could be an interesting design concept for that one.
I'm surprised so many of those haven't been claimed yet.

That seriously wouldn't make sense, but I guess it would be a thing in the not-too-distant future.

I don't get these pokemon. Like, there's this pokemon based off ice cream, and another that's a trash bag.

I stopped looking at new pokemon when Black and White came out, where you get new pokemon in Unova.

Youve got this pile of goo that evolves and gains angry eyes, youve got a pokeball that flips upside down, you got some shitty eggs, there's literally just a seal.

Pokemon has always got fucking awful designs in there.

I'm just more used to the older Pokemon, specifically the ones that came before Generation V.

I have this friend who is a Pokemon fanatic, and he pretty much finished X or Y within 24 hours. But then he's kinda dumb compared to other players.

alright stop right there but do you seriously think gamefreak should only design pokemon that are cute and that you personally like? and you're completely ignoring the fact that they're staying self-consistent in their own universe in that inanimate objects can be pokemon too? i fucking hate this anti gen 5 circlejerk like grow the fuck up, trashcans exist, and you're not even complaining about the fact that since the very beginning, they've had designs that were literally just a living pokeball or a circle surrounded by magnets

i think it's pretty obvious now that you're just trying to justify to everyone else that the franchise has moved on without you and never belonged to just your childhood

From a technical standpoint, Gen-1 was as buggy as a recent EA release, and unbalanced besides.

But so what? It was the first Pokemon game, it was a new thing, and people had fun playing it.

"It was the first" isnt a particularly great excuse yknow.

I meant more that people probably noticed the bugs less because for a lot of people they hadn't seen a game like that one before.

i mean, theres nothing wrong with liking gen 1, but the attitude of holding it up as the best pokemon generation is awful. it had its ups and downs, but it's just another pokemon game, and people need to stop acting like all the work gamefreak put into the next 20 generations was for nothing. pokemon has always been pokemon, it doesn't magically become an entirely different franchise just because you don't like the company's ideals anymore

it's pokemon, it's literally just pokemon and everything else was still pokemon. guess what. pokemon doesn't stop being pokemon just because someone thinks it was a part of THEIR childhood so THEY have the right to idolise just a specific generation and act like all the other generations are awful for some arbitrary separation

stop judging the new pokemon just for being new... it's alright to just say you don't personally enjoy it anymore and only love the nostalgia form your childhood

Age: 16

Gen I couldn't really be a big part of his childhood anyways.

Cerilium is hitting the nail on the head. Plus Gold and Silver were far more polished. Except for the part where their save batteries all died.

Gen 1 was good for its time. If people wanna call it the best let them call it the best. There's really no reason to rabidly attack someone because their opinion differs. That's worse than being a stereotypical genwunner honestly.

You're right Alzar, it's just Pokemon. Let it go.
