>>27387912What part of "Gen II are my favorite games for nostalgia reasons" didn't you see?
>>27387804>Defend your opinion at least.Not any of the people you replied to, but Platinum and BW2 have a metric ton of content. Underground, the Gen IV Frontier (which isn't as good as Emerald's Frontier but it's much better than Gen VI's Maison), Pokéstar Studios, Join Avenue, the PWT, and Sinnoh and Unova both have a sizeable chunk of areas only available after beating the E4.
XY are also the easiest games of an already easy series, to the point that it's boring. Platinum and BW2 aren't exactly hard, but compare Pt and BW2's challenge mode to XY in terms of Gym Leaders and E4.
This part is completely subjective but Sinnoh is a god-tier region compared to Kalos and both games have much better music than XY's.
XY have a ton of flaws that I could go more in-depth about but it wouldn't do much good to say them when you don't have the context of the entire franchise, so I just want to focus on these major aspects. I know Pokémon games are all too expensive, but you should at least emulate them.
