HG/SS are pretty lame, while they have some nice features they're absolutely fucked by not improving on all the faults of the originals.
Yokai Watch games has potential to surpass Pokemon in a few years, provided that they continue to improve with each game (so far so good) and Level 5 does not drop it for the next big thing too soon.
PMD were cool at first, but now they're just as much of a rehash as the mainline games. Their stories are good only in comparison with other Pokemon games.
Having too many Pokemon in a single game can be a bad thing - see XY where encounter rates for some species were absolutely awful due to not too few areas to spread them through.
Mega evolutions are bad and I keep erasing them from my memory, only to be reminded of them while browsing /vp/.
