>>46025906>Nostalgia of simpler times (hiding your DS to not get caught by your parents while playing late at night)>They actually put effort into making these games>Looking back it reminds you that Gamefreak is much better at using pixels/sprites instead of polygons/models>Region and music are fantastic>Gave many older gen Pokemon new evolutions, many are great (including my all time favorite pic related), but I do agree many went with the "it gets bigger and rounder" idea a bit too much>Not to mention the great spin-off games of this gen (the Ranger games, Pokepark, Mystery Dungeon, etc.)Gen 4 felt slow yes but each gen has its flaws, and I think most can overall agree that mainline Pokemon games peaked in the Gen 4/5 era, with titles such as Platinum, HG/SS and B2/W2
