Pokemon gen wars:

We should be one happy family dudes

 

[Dorj]

LAMO, not in a million years. .

we will see ;D

 

[Takuan]

Gen II didn't have that many new Pokés (which I found a bummer) but it had

decent (Meganium) to great (Feraligatr) starter final evos:

I mean, some hedgehog/badger/echidna/whatever the fuck with a flame collar and a crocodile that turns into some badass corcosaur? yup

these sexy aztec/mayan-totem motherfuckers

these smug chaps

some sleek pokemon with new types (even made Onix tolerable in retrospective)

THIS MOTHERFUCKER RIGHT HERE WHICH IS CRIMINALLY UNDERREPRESENTED AND NEEDS A MEGA EVOLUTION FUCK YOU GAME FREAK

the best legendary trio

and one of the best if not the best pseudo-legendary

yup, it's clear, if you hate Gen II you are a racist and hate Japan, the country Pokémon was made




I can't help you with that Garchomp is just too awesome but you must find the light by yourself.



that's what someone who likes Gen III the most would say

Are all of these guys in XY?

 

[famfrit]

lol

dont liked the even less dificult than previous games

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Gotta sell dem 3Dees and 2Dees some how.

 

[Firemind]

Dem grafx.

Posting the Green sprites. Give this guy a medal.

 

[ColtraineGF]

The Cerulean Cave and the three birds are a better postgame than the sorry excuse called Azelf, Uxie and Mespirit.

Birds aren't post-game: you can catch them during the main quest.

The only actual post-game activity is Cerulean Cave. That's it.

Feraligator in Oblivion.

Not so awesome as the pokemanz.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Posting the Green sprites. Give this guy a medal.

You're right, the point completely doesn't stand with Red/Blue sprites at all.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Posting the Green sprites. Give this guy a medal.

Red/Blue sprites weren't much better, let's not even talk about the blobs known as back sprites.

 

[Dawg]

I hope Red & Blue will release on eShop one day. Gimme dat nostalgia, FR and LG aren't the same.

I still have my Pokemon Red. I'd rather have G/S/C on the eShop as working copies barely exist anymore.

 

[Kyon]

Are all of these guys in XY?

Only like 2 of them.

Shows how trash and the lack of impact of Gen II

 

[Metallix87]

that's what someone who likes Gen III the most would say

Actually, my personal favorite is Gen V, but I like all six gens and their respective Pokemon a lot. My favorite Pokemon of all, for instance, is Gen II / IV. (Togepi and evolutions)

 

[ArchedThunder]

lol

dont liked the even less dificult than previous games

The best part of this is that some of that is factually incorrect. Some of the stuff that is true doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things.

 

[DirtyDeedsDoneDirtCheap]

I've heard the saving's really quick.

Also... Battle Effects toggle? YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSS FUCK YOU COLOSSEUM/XD.



Dem grafx.

[/QUOTE]

You big fat fraud, you didn't even post Meatball Graveler.

 

[PreyingShark]

lol

"Reviewers hesitate to say anything good about the game"

Okay, I'm losing it.

 

[Dorj]

I really don't wanna play RBYGSC ever again, but the remakes I sure don't mind.

 

[Firemind]

You're right, the point completely doesn't stand with Red/Blue sprites at all.

Why not post the yellow sprites while you're at it?

 

[LX_Theo]

You're right, the point completely doesn't stand with Red/Blue sprites at all.

What's wrong with that one?

 

[Berordn]

The Cerulean Cave and the three birds are a better postgame than the sorry excuse of a postgame called Azelf, Uxie and Mespirit.

The sprites weren't even postgame. That's also completely ignoring the Battle Zone bonus island, Turnback Cave and all the other extra bits that popped up after you got crowned champion.

 

[Takuan]

Only like 2 of them.

Shows how trash and the lack of impact of Gen II

That blows, I like practically all of those designs. Which two?

 

[MrSaturn99]

Did any new Mega Evolutions pop up last night? Not in the mood to sift through another gen war.

 

[LX_Theo]

Anyone fighting over and proclaiming one gen better than others needs to grow up. Its an opinion.

 

[Kouriozan]

lol

dont liked the even less dificult than previous games

It took 2,5 years to "rush" this game. :lol

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

I really don't wanna play RBYGSC ever again, but the remakes I sure don't mind.

There's that nostalgic part in my brain that'd rather play Red than FR even though I know R/B/Y are extremely outdated.

 

[ColtraineGF]

It's not exactly controversial to state that RBY factually had the least to do post-game.

A single dungeon where you capture Mewtwo. You can construct as much fanfic around that as you'd like, but it is what it is.

 

[Teknoman]

So we have new Pokemons out of the way, what about other stuff.

Did 'super training' turn out to be any quicker or more transparent than the EV stuff we've been doing for years? Have IVs been normalized/are they less important? HM use cut back at all?

It should be much easier by default. Seems like the better you do in a mini-game the higher the base stat gain. Time saver to be sure.

What I want to know is if there is some sort of instant all EV eraser/reset. Building up those points prior to whenever super training unlocks will still take its toll if not.

 

[Zalman]

There's that nostalgic part in my brain that'd rather play Red than FR even though I know R/B/Y are extremely outdated.

FR/LG was ruined for me by the horrible music. They used the same trumpet-style sound from RSE. I don't want to hear horns ever again in Pokémon.

 

[Village]

The best part of this is that some of that is factually incorrect. Some of the stuff that is true doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things.

That depends on the person.

Is that hat shit true by the way I never got an answer.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Only like 2 of them.

Shows how trash and the lack of impact of Gen II

they actually want people to use the new pokémon so they're withholding Gen II

 

[Mr-Joker]

The Cerulean Cave and the three birds are a better postgame than the sorry excuse of a postgame called Azelf, Uxie and Mespirit.

The Birds aren't post game, in fact you could get Zapdos with three badge and breeze the entire game.

lol

dont liked the even less dificult than previous games

I agree with point 1,2 and 4 but I wouldn't tell someone skip the game because of them.

Hell I still hyped for the game despite those flaws.

let's not even talk about the blobs known as back sprites.

Charmeleon back sprite was a mess, it looked like a hippo. :|

I hope Red & Blue will release on eShop one day. Gimme dat nostalgia, FR and LG aren't the same.

Yeah, the original gen 1 and 2 will never be released on the e-shop.

 

[ArchedThunder]

That depends on the person.

Is what true?

I will never get nostalgics :/

Distraction!

#GOAT

Darn it! I can't help it I have to go into every house, watch every channel, the drawers and the bin!

Tch tch cha! (Come on! Like I'd know!)

I gave up on watching the tv in every house after gen 4 (or was it 5?) where shows were actually shown and the text took a while to get through.

I do check every bin though haha.

 

[Village]

Is what true?

That you cannot take off your hat.

 

[EulaCapra]

What the... 3D battles are only for 1 vs. 1? Is that right?

Also, can someone summarize story spoilers or give the page they start on? Really confused as to what's being thrown out there...

 

[Korosenai]

Have we seen Gourgeist or Trevenants stats yet?

 

[ivysaur12]

lol

dont liked the even less dificult than previous games

What the fuck is this shit.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Don't we already have confirmation of double battles and triple battles returning?

 

[Berordn]

What the fuck is this shit.

Vitriol from an uninformed consumer.

 

[Fireblend]

Don't we already have confirmation of double battles and triple battles returning?

We do but they're not in 3D,if you're referring to the pic.

 

[Antiwhippy]

We even have videos of double battles.

Don't care, will still buy and play.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

I will never get nostalgics :/

I actually don't think Gen 1 is the best or anything, and can surpress my nostalgia just fine when trying to be objective. But it's still there

 

[Trey]

How fast are the battles though? Can we turn off battle animations? From what I see, the text still looks gloriously quick.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Don't care, will still buy and play.

and love.

 

[pariah164]

LOL wat. Bitch plz. I will buy and enjoy this game no matter what. Though I will agree about number 4.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Since the thread has died down quite a lot, might as well post the WoS

:lol I just make it in.

 

[Andrax]

"No post game content"

Compared to what? I spend most of my time in black white post game breeding and finding new pokémon.

"No story"

lol, yeah I often play pokemon for it's gripping storyline. I wonder if the crime syndicate will be naughty in this one?

etc

cba to go through and counter subjective bull****

edit:

Pokémon X&Y start speedily. There’s no faffing around, and it’s not long before you’re fighting other Trainers in brutal combat and approaching your first gym. It’s a confident beginning, but what it lacks early on is a challenge, and it’s easy to plod through the early stages.

This soon changes, and although it is never outlandishly difficult, it balances and becomes much more compelling as the challenge ramps up.

X&Y are familiar on the surface, but nothing about each game is untouched in Game Freak’s amazing Pokémon revolution.
