What's the best Pokemon Community? Don't even suggest that /vp/ is the best, it's either dead or filled with shitposters. I heard that Smogon's forums and IRC channel wasn't bad but they've been DDoS'd so I can't check them out at the moment.

At least /vp/'s shitposters are better than the other communities' posters.

Are you honestly suggesting that nothing is better than /vp/'s shitty overused memes and endless genwars. Other places would at least be moderated.

It's better than other forums in terms of active users. I mean, you throw a thread out there and you'll get posts maybe a minute or two afterwards, whereas in any other forum you'll have to wait a few hours or even sometimes a day for just one post. Also the shitposting is much a better drawback than annoying as fuck genwunners who'll come up with their own reasons why the objectively worst gen is the best or even remotely good, when they usually have no idea what they're talking about. I mean, bear with me here, that's like a new, worse type of shitposting, amirite?

>objectively worst gen

This is why /vp/ is so bad, you pretty much encompass the other end of the spectrum "HURR ALL OLD GENS SUCK IF YOU LIKE THEM YOUR A GENWUNNER", you're just as delusional as the Facebook kiddies. In fact, with all the tripkids on this board I wouldn't be too surprised if the typical /vp/ browser and Facebook kid are one in the same.

The only threads that get decent activity on /vp/ are the recurring threads (WFG, Nuzlocke, Drawthread, Showderp, Pokegirls, etc.) and the ones that either are or have been turned into genwars. It's nearly impossible to have a reasonable conversation on here without unleasing a torrent of shitposting.

I take this back because I forgot most of my co-workers were born in the 80's which means they are "90'S KIDS XDDDD." I just checked /r/pokemon and not a single post didn't have to do with genwon or "wow look what /vp/ is doing so kewl xdd" posts.

Is that the first and only thing you saw in my post or what? It is objectively the worst. I'm not saying it's bad, it's just heavily outclassed. I don't dislike people who like Gen One, I dislike people who haven't tried anything besides maybe the first two gens and think that gen one is the only good gen, when it obviously isn't.

Okay. In my opinion, the least refined generation with the worst sound quality, graphics, and is outclassed pretty much in every way by gens 3-5 is the worst.

He's right. It's the same as saying a Sega Megadrive is objectively worse than a PS4, at least as far as technological advances go (and games, but I'm sure some cunts would disagree. Not even talking about graphics, either).

The same can be applied between generations 1 and 5.

Please. /vp/ experiences the same issues all of 4chan does, as well as some unique ones, but it's one of the tamest and the least shitty baords on 4chan. Plus, if you ignore what the bandwagon that tells you to hate everything says, it's a good community without needing to compare it to other boards.

It's by no means perfect, but there isn't any other pokemon community I know of that's better than this one, and it's the only one I go to for anything other than information or specific content.

>everything is shitposting
There's actual discussion that happens all the time if you pay attention. I'd say bandwagoning--a condition from which your post suffers--is a bigger problem than "shitposting" when it comes to good discussion.

Shitposting means posting something that contributes nothing of value to the discussion. That's the biggest problem that /vp/ faces.

>>12528851
I'm fairly interested in competitive battling, so Smogon does seem like a reasonable choice. Apparently the forums and IRC channel isn't flooded with the idiot ragequitters on Showdown.

>>12528887
If you can't see the side-effects caused by /vp/'s lack of moderation, you're probably one of the shitposters.

>>12528738
I agree with your first statement, but I don't agree with your second statement. The only threads that have a high good:bad ratio are the recurring threads that I have no real interest in. The rest of /vp/ is pretty bad.

Smogon is the best. Idiots can post in the forums and get away with it, they are very strict. The only problem I have is the dumb asses that are in the IRC and talk on Pokemon Showdown.
