Quoted By:
Soul of franchise peaked here..afterwards:
>Kino soul-infused sprites removed
>Regions not based on grassroots Japan locations
>Battle frontier tossed away
>Post games for the most part lacking risk-taking innovation and the essence of that sort of next level Pokemon experience
>Pokemon got uglier, especially the starters
>Handholdy
>Mysteriousness gone--thank the internet and basedboy let's plays for that
>Can't deny the lack of nostalgia component
>No more Brock in muh anime
>Competitive power creep was hella gay and only continues to get worse
>3d
>Forgettable towns, especially the names (there's a reason color names for towns was a good choice)
>Faggot rivals who take it up the ass and then proceed to give you 15 hyper potions
>Whole game spoiled before released through JewTube
>Movies have zero soul whatsoever (largely because that one guy died who had all the kino ideas)
>Original English voice actors removed not long before
>games overall are just hard to replay--not because the game's are hard by any means either
I could go on for hours.
