>>29365724>I still have my GBC Pikachu Edition.And it's nice that your big brother (dad?) was gracious enough to give them to you.
But if you were really old enough to have played Yellow on release, let alone Red and Blue, you'd know that gen 6 and almost certain 7 are objectively better than gen 4 and 5. The fact that you so fervently hump the /vp/ bandwagon shows that you fall into the same demographic as the majority of its posters– that is to say, children who grew up gen 4 or 5 and only played the originals after the fact, if at all.
Gen 4 was a disaster from a gameplay standpoint, and gen 5 was so caught up in trying to fix that trainwreck that it didn't actually manage to make any major advancements. We've only just gotten to the point where Pokemon is moving forward again, after two generations of stagnation, and Sinnohfoeti are terrified at being removed from their comfort zone. "This isn't what Pokemon is about!" They lack the perspective to know how things have changed before, to put things like Mega Evolution and Fairy type into context. For them, Hold Items, Abilities and Dark Type always existed, so the franchise has always been what they knew.
I know this is a scary time for you, I think every kid goes through a "not muh Pokemon" phase. Most of us hit that age during gen 3. I just hope you're around to enjoy the series once you grow up a little.
