If you're passionate about something, you will put time into it. Also, not an argument
>d-discord!
Not an argument. I've also never once used discord in my life
>n-nostalgia!!!
No. The older you go back, the better Pokemon gets.
>b-but everything in "transitionary" was made-up!
How do I transfer my mons from Gens 1 and 2 into Gen 3? How do I access slots in an EU copy of Platinum? How do I access Slots in HGSS? Where is the Day/Night cycle in Gen 3? Why do I have to buy 20 different games to complete the dex in Gens 3 and 4? Why are the stories so unbelievably retarded?
>b-but gen 5 is the last time they tried
Sure. That doesn't mean it also isn't the start of many things that make the later games awful. Casualization with stuff like arbitrarily locking each gym leader to no more than 3 mons, railroaded region, ugly lazy Pokemon designs, cut even more stuff than Gen 3 and 4 did but at least tries to make up for some of it with alternatives.
>b-but all games are good up to gen 7!
Absolutely not.
