It was clear a lot of love was put into them. They were pretty based. HGSS and BW1/2 felt like Pokemon was hitting a renaissance, and then it somehow fell flat on it's face with Gen 6 and has been a falling knife ever since. What the fuck happened? How do we go from all the effort and passion put into those games and then get fucking shit on for 4 generations in a row? Did they fire the person responsible for breathing SOUL into the games?
