the reality is, gen 5 fans were literally introduced to pokemon and so they've deluded themselves into thinking that the train wreck of a gen that was gen 5 is something special when long term fans and even just fans that came after gen 5 see it as the weakest entry into the series.
pic related is comments from 1 (ONE) video on youtube filled with seething gen 5 zoomers. i checked some of their channels and they're all hilariously ugly too, it was actually comical, i might go back and slap some of their faces onto this image just for maximum asshurt.
>>38321789shit pokemon don't just go away because you don't like them unfortunately, gen 5 having a large dex did nothing for it, i'd gladly sacrifice my favorites from the gen for the whole thing to not exist so i don't have to look at 3/4 of the abominations that this dogshit gen spawned.
>>38321790no i'm what you'd call somebody with quality taste that doesn't need to latch on to a trash gen to try to look unique because i have no other redeeming qualities, something that i've consistently found happens with gen 5 fans.
