>>36843595In my opinion: After Gen 4. Gen 5 was a soft reboot and from then on gamefreak tried to make the series more and more "for everyone" with each passing title. Now we're getting a game that assumes you're too dumb to wipe and people are genuinely hyped over it because now even the lowest functioning retards can play.
Troll answer: Gen 2 for giving us forced unskippable tutorials, new pokemon that are outshined by gen 1, and raising the bar for postgame too high to ever surpass.
