The inclusion of fairy types (which barely does it's job of balancing dragon types since the popular ones still rampage the tiers), improved breeding mechanics, the Kalos starters, Aegislash, need I say more?

Mega evolutions and fairies were a nice enough addition. The designs for the new Pokemon were mostly pretty cool. Character customization was pretty fun, and so are the PVs. Friend Safari is good. The elite four may be the easiest one ever, but at least their rooms and designs looked cool. Pokemon Amie was a fun distraction. Super training, hordes, and the ease of getting perfect IVs makes competitive battling a cinch.

I've heard a lot people say they didn't like it, but I liked how the Exp. Share worked this time around. In the older games, all of my playthroughs would eventually just end up as me tanking through everything with my starter and whatever legendaries were in the game. But the way Exp. Share works in X/Y kept all of my Pokemon within the same level range, which really helped lessen the load of grinding, something I've honestly had a lot of trouble with focusing on in the past.

Seconded. It really soothed my team level autism and really helped me just not flat out ragequit over keeping everyone leveled save for one or two high-level bruisers because that was so much fucking less time.

A lot of them were pure nostalgia pandering, and most of them pretty much go by the rule of "how do we make this as fucking OP as possible?"

There really wasn't much of a reason to include the majority of them, and what ones were good ideas could easily have been normal evos or formes. It's a contrived gimmick that jumped the shark farther than anything else GF's done.

It is completely and utterly wrong to even like anything from XY. What you are doing is spitting in the face of some of the most elite and civilized people on /vp/, if not 4chan as a whole. You had the GALL to never allow us our own opinions, and only accept what many normally find unacceptable. All of you should be hunted and killed in the most brutal manner possible. And take the faggots drawing fanart/writing fanfics/etc. of any of the XY media (games, anime, manga, you name it) with you for the bloodshed. They are too gay to live in this galaxy. Kill yourselves.

I liked that they were willing to change the type-chart and added in Fairy. Should have gone farther though, shit's still pretty unbalanced.

Mega evolutions were a nice concept and some of them (M-Venusaur, M-Chomp, M-Gyara) are well-designed since they aren't strictly better than their regular forms. Others are just way too fucking OP (M-Khan, M-Blaze) and others should have just been straight evos like M-Pinsir or M-Mawile.

Amie was cute, and the changes to breeding makes the whole process far less luck-based. Friend Safari is an improvement over Dream World since you don't have to tinker with that shitty website anymore.

Character customization is great if you're playing as a girl, Looker sidequest was neat, and the region dex has the most variety of any Pokemon game yet.

I'm not a Kalosfag. I understand that some things weren't done properly. However, you cannot honestly tell me that the majority of Pokémon fans dislike every part of Gen VI.

I mean, does nobody ever use Fairies or Megas? Did the revamped breeding mechanics ruin breeding for everyone forever?

Not everyone shares your opinions. Some people find some enjoyment in every generation of Pokémon. Just grow up and learn to not be butthurt about X and Y.

It was basically a groundwork game where they spent most of their time making a new engine and converting all the old pokemon.

That said, what new features they did add like Amie and super training were great fun, and the world was cool and the new pokemon (though few) were great designs.

I feel like the Megas were pretty hit and miss, but it was a nice game (and the ending was adorable), just seriously hampered by a lack of postgame, more new pokemon, and the fact that the first chunk of the game was so much better than the latter chunk.

I still like it more than Hoenn.

I'll give you Megazard Y
but X?
Yeah, as >>19248406 said, he can only hit neutral. But Zard X can't do shit to Azumarill, while Azumarill can still hit pretty hard back, considering it has the benefit of STAB.

>>19248414

I was referring specifically to how well it deals with zard

No one is "forced" to use them. It's very easy to make teams that don't have either. But people choose to use them, and thus they enter the metagame.

Also, I can tell you that there are plenty of people who were pleased by X and Y from the start. Why? Because we went into it wanting to have fun with something new and exciting. Obviously, Smogon has ripped the joy out of your soul.

You have yet to say anything to support your own claim other than "XY is shit" and "everyone hates Gen VI" and "it's the most hated generation." When are you going to say something to back up Gen VI being worse than ANY other gen?

I don't understand what your problem is, man, but I can recommend a good therapist if you need one.

There are very few straight up terrible new pokemon. Off the top of my head the only ones I regretted trying on my play throughs were Dedenne and Aurorus. Hell, the regional bird is the powerhouse everyone builds around, the regional rodent got a nice aftergame boost with Huge Power, and the regional butterfly was give even beyond its gimmick.

I think I get where you're coming from, most of them can't hack it in OU and are apparently too powerful for UU so they're being shoved into BL (who plays BL?) or entirely forgotten. But I don't think you can argue that Hawlucha is terrible or that you didn't come around to Honedge when you used him in-game.

I think the Pokemon were great, but the region and story were bland. Nothing about Kalos stands out to me. Team Flare is probably the worst team, and Lysandre had the personality of cardboard compared to SOME of the villains from past generations. It had fantastic music though, except for the gym leader theme, which was just alright. Not as good as Unova or especially Sinnoh.

That said, it was still a good game. Generation six is probably in the middle for me when it comes to Pokemon games rankings.

Heracross in no way needed an evolution. In fact, his Mega was worse than his base. Heracross is perfect. Heracross is love. Heracross is life.

I think it's overall better than having to grind, and making not a held item was a good thing, but I also think it gave too much experience for what it did. It could probably give 1/4 exp and still be pretty good without breaking the game as much as it did.
