In my opinion, the pokemon series has improved with every game. Sword and shield looked weird, but I'm trusting them it will be a great game

Either gen 4 or gen 5 for me. I had a lot of fun with Black/White when they came out, but in retrospect gens 1-4 are the only ones I really consider "true" Pokmon games.

I give Gamefreak credit for the B/W1 decision of only new Pokemon until the postgame tbh. That decision must have taken some balls, and while there are a lot of clone Pokemon just meant to be Dex filler like the not-Zubat, not-Geodude and not-Machamp clones, it's a decision I overall came to enjoy and even found new favorites thanks to.
Gen 6 has to be the biggest decline and while going 3D might have made the games look prettier, it came with way too many drawbacks. I really think at this point that Pokemon should've just stayed with 2D sprites. It just wasn't worth going 3D. --- Regardless of warnings, the future doesn't scare me at all. ...

The series has generally declined after gen 4. GF isnt interested in innovation or improving the series anymore but keeping it stagnant for longevity purposes and maximum profit.
So you can either except this reality for pokemon or let it go and move on from the franchise. And I chose the latter. --- 3DS FC:3368-5403-9633 Name: Kaizer PSN: Blackkaizer ... Copied to Clipboard!

I want to say 3, but I can't hate on the Gen that gave us Pokemon Colosseum.
4 had a lot of great changes. 5 was the first good story. I don't think it "stopped" being good, but gen 6 was when the decline started I think. 1. Underwhelming story. Yes yes Pokemon never had much of a story, but Black and White set a new standard that X and Y didn't live up to. 2. Too much gen 1 pandering. It just felt like it was trying to homage Kanto while still being something else. 3. By far the worst evil team in the main games. I'd say that Team Flare was a joke, but that would be an insult to Team Skull who at least succeeded in being funny. Flare was boring. Their leader was boring. Their motives we're boring. Their admins didn't even have freaking names. This was the same gen Aqua and Magma had their admins fleshed out into actual characters. 4. By far the easiest E4. Only four Pokes, no rematch, Champion is a major step down from previous ones(Except maybe Wallace). It's stylish, I just wish there was more substance. I still enjoyed the games, but it could have been so much more. --- This is a mobile account, forgive any errors. ~DYL~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTEX3YdEi7s ... Copied to Clipboard!

I want to say Gen 5 was when pokemon really started to power creep. Sure Gen 4 has it's own problems like SR, but I found it to be rather enjoyable when a lot more pokemon became viable due to the special/physical split.

What I mean is that the games were never that deep. It was always possible to beat any of them by just training your starter Pokemon, which shows that they were never meant to be taken that seriously as RPGs.

All Pokemon games are easy, post game and some problem bosses notwithstanding.
It's just that Gen 6 lacked even a troublesome boss. Not one point where it was "Oh shit, this thing is pretty tough". And yes, being older makes it easier to breeze through these games. I don't deny that. The difference between gen 6 and 7 though is that at least I've had Pokemon faint in gen 7 during tough fights. Gen 6 scaled down to gen 1 difficulty. --- This is a mobile account, forgive any errors. ~DYL~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTEX3YdEi7s ... Copied to Clipboard!

The first few trials( maybe the first 3 or 4) are kinda hard, but afterward the game becomes a joke as usual. And even thats mostly becuase most gen7s pokemon are complete garbage. AshGreaninja practically carried my entire team becuase most Alolamons were slow trash.

Gen 6. X and Y weren't good. Didn't care for the region, the characters weren't great, the villains were bad. The only good thing to come from X and Y are Mega evolutions.
Gen 5 tho? The best. I enjoyed Black and White and Black and White 2 waaaaaay more than any other Pokmon games. The Unova Region was great, the characters were great, Team Plasma is def the best Antagonist team. The new Pokmon in Gen 5 are some of the best. I fucking love Gen 5.
