>>56392704>What was your first pokemon game?First one I played was Sapphire, first one I actually owned was Pearl
>What generation did you have peak enjoyment with the franchise?Gen 4 holds too many of my good childhood memories for me to answer anything else
>What in your opinion is the best mainline game, and what is your favorite spinoff?Heartgold. I loved the ranger games, the sprite art in those was absolute kino
>At what point do you think the soul was lost and the magic died?Looking back on it, cracks started to show as early as gen 5 imo, but I kept buying them up through ORAS. I still appreciate all of them up through that point though.
>What do you think the future of pokemon is?Spinoffs. The only way the mainline games are gonna get any better is if GF basically reworks their production process altogether, and they're actively financially incentivised not to do so.
>Who is your favorite pokemon?Torterra
