Gen I - the beginning
Gen II - worthy sequel, end of the fad
Gen III - divisiveness, a new beginning
Gen IV - a slow period
Gen V - homosexuality, superficial change pretending to be actual change
Gen VI - actual change

Gen V did nothing to change the series as a whole. The only thing it added was Seasons (lolseasons) and Triple and Rotation battles.

It didn't introduce anything to change the series drastically like the other Gens did

It's just the typical idiots that always defend the newest thing

Now the newest thing is Gen VI

And then there's me:

>I like every generation of Pokémon, know fucking everything about it, and like everything introduced into the series and don't constantly bitch at GameFreak for trying to be innovative.

I'm sorry, but Gen 2 is not good. Gen 2 is the only bad generation so far.

So...yeah.

>HAY GUIS LOOK I JUST HACKED MY POLITOEDS ABILITY XDDD GEN V OR WHAT??

I'll give you the EXP boost but that's it.

Gen V tried a lot of new things with the plot. For better or worse.

But the point is that we didn't have to hack those in and most of those abilities made certain pokemon a lot better than they were.

Some are bad(Weavile), and some are great(Politoed,Ninetails,Venusaur,Blaziken,NidoKing)

Gen II might have been shit, but it introduced a LOT more features than what people give it credit for.
>Breeding
>Shinies
>Gender
>HELD ITEMS

>>13659701
So what if Gen V had a better plot than the rest? It really didn't do anything to change mechanics like other gens did

the point is that Gen V introduced the least amount of shit in the series.
Gen VI still hasn't come out yet, and has more features than V.
I'm not not saying I hated V, but to say that V introduced many features is complete nonsense. AND to further delude yourself into thinking DW abilities is a "feature" is sad

Never tried to say that it introduced the most.

Agreed

>to further delude yourself into thinking DW abilities is a "feature" is sad
But they are, and I don't see why you keep saying this.

No, my point was that Gen V introduced the least amount of shit in the series.

>But they are, and I don't see why you keep saying this.
But they're not, it's just using a Gen III mechanic and putting it on different Pokemon.

And again, I'm not saying that Gen 5 didn't introduced the most,But they did introduced some mechanics that are well liked by most. I don't know how you got regular abilities and DW abilities mixed together, but to still think that DW abilities aren't welcomed or good or even new is kinda sad.

DW abilities aren't not welcomed, it's just that it isn't really a "new mechanic" it's a Gen III mechanic that got put on different Pokemon that's all. I mean if DW abilities were all totally new abilities, I'd give you the benefit of the doubt but most of them are old abilities given to shitty pokemon which is okay but not really... new.

Well allright. when you put it in that way, that makes sense to me now. In a way, it's both, New for being a new way to get abilities along with new ones. and Old for giving old ones to most of them

I apologizes for coming off as a faggot if I sound like one.
