>>34350513As someone who loved every gen prior to Gen 5, and also loved 6 & 7? I'll tell you.
>While it brought a lot of high quality new Pokemon, it brought an equal amount of hideous and objectively retarded ones.>It also didn't help that a VERY LARGE number of Unova mons are fucking USELESS in a playthrough because they evolve WAAAAAAAAAY too late. It was so bad they gave Ghetsis an ILLEGAL Hydreigon and put a somehow underleveled Volcarona in the game for you go catch because Larvesta takes fifty million years to evolve on it's own.>Absolutely shit music outside of a couple story songs>WHY ARE THERE SO MANY FUCKING BORING USELESS BRIDGES HOLY SHIT>Cheren was just a diet G rated Sasuke and Bianca (while cute) was not much better from a characterization standpoint.>Had great gym leaders but COMPLETELY dropped the ball on the champion. Alder is the worst one in the entire series both in design and character and you don't even face him until the postgame.>Sprites were REALLY outdated at this point and the moving pixelated ones were super gross.>Team Plasma made zero fucking sense and half the team wasn't on the same page. N was a stupid Mary Sue with an inexplicable ability and any interesting points he brought up were completely voided by Ghetsis pulling the ultimate cliche "OH NO HE WAS EVIL ALL ALONG". And don't even get me started on how irrelevant the "shadow triad", N's caretakers, and all those old fuckers were. They did not even need to be characters.>Zero exploration possible. Unova was just a fucking circle with no way to deviate off the beaten path. Plus did I mention ALL THE FUCKING USELESS BRIDGES?>Story culminated in "Truth vs Ideals" but made ZERO effort to tie it into the actual story. Like why even mention it?A couple other nitpicks but these are the big ones. Please note that every gen has it's downsides and some even share some of these with Gen 5. But Gen 5 just has too much wrong at once.
