>>39394847Black and White were actually a step in the right direction after the HUGE disappointment of the Sinnoh trainwrecks. To this day, BW are also the only Pokemon games that tackle relatively mature thematic elements and were a genuine effort by Game Freak to captivate the older audiences that had grown up playing the best games in the franchise: Generation One. "Sinnohfetuses", as the zoomers call them, are by far the worst Pokemon "fans" on this board. The ONLY redeeming quality of Gen 4 were the Johto remakes. Real talk. Stop deluding yourselves /vp/, D/P (and even Platinum) were never good games. Your nostalgia for when the world was a less cringeworthy SJW shithole and your boner for Dawn are responsible for clouding your judgement.
