Hey anon, you're just asking for the best even if Unova has a lot of shitmons.

Sinnoh does too

Agreed, but /vp/ will (and apparently is) voting for Gen V over Gen III and Gen I because "muh sacred cow".

Even though Gen III had a similar format but far superior starters and more originality, and Gen I is far more iconic.

No it doesn't. The common opinion here is Unova best region, and I'm sure people would be happy if GameFreak's mission was accomplished and it served as a new foundation for the franchise, pissing off the genwunners.

>XY are now direct sequels to B2W2, and build on the Unova dex a la GSC
>Alain's star Pokémon is Mega Zoroark instead of Mega Charizard
>Femtwo, Zoroark and Snivy in Smash instead of regular Mewtwo, Charizard and Greninja
>Gen I relegated to "nostalgia only" status like with SMB1 and Zelda 1

ORAS has postgame a plenty and people shit on it for having no Frontier.

And praise Emerald over it just for having a Frontier, even though it otherwise has a fraction of the postgame ORAS has.

Besides that, people also praise Unova as a region as well as its dex despite having Shitboar and the Shitmonkeys in it.

Gen I is only "iconic" because it was the original. There's no other reason to think those designs are the best, when a lot of them are quite bland.

Saying the designs are the best because they're "iconic" is precisely what we call nostalgia blindness.

At this point, B2W2 is basically the Wind Waker/Fire Emblem PoR of the Pokémon fanbase, where contrarian hipsters praise it to no end and attack anybody who dislikes it or prefers the more casual-friendly/nostalgic entries.

I don't know why everyone likes the Gen V batch of mons so much. They weren't bad but they were just really.....weird...similar to the jump from Gen II to gen III.

Gen V has too many "ugly" pokemon. basculin existing at all and having no redeeming value pissed me off, the pidove line is hands down the most worthless route 1 bird in the history of the franchise and the redundancy of the monkeys and genies was just straight up laziness. Not to mention every other god damn trainer had the monkeys.

Gen II will always hold a special place in my heart. The pokemon actually "looked" like pokemon there wasn't an over-saturation of legendaries there was a large number of pokemon to choose from and the ratio of cool to derpy pokemon was much better than Gen V

You forgot the extra legendaries, soaring, mirage spots, etc.

And Unova's shitmons happen to be the more prominent ones (Shitboar is the fire starter and was basically marketed as the Charizard of its gen, the Shitmonkeys are gift Pokémon, your rivals use them consistently, and Cilan had a Pansage throughout the anime).

It didn't even have a fucking Battle Tower.

BW2:

>everything east of Castelia
>a large number of legendaries to catch
>pokedex completion, get your charms for the first time in the series and go get your shiny haxorus in an exclusive area
>white treehollow
>black tower
>rematches against tons of good trainers (alder, n's seasonal teams, colress, hugh, etc)
>elite four rematches
>difficulty settings
>pokestar studios (more content than contests, at least)
>join avenue
>funfest missions
>breeding
>dream world
>hidden grottoes
>memory link
>badges

Probably forgetting some shit

Even in BW:
>arrest sages in postgame
>explore eastern unova
>battle subway (it's a direct improvement of maison, at least)
>pokedex completion
>breeding
>elite four rematches
>bloody musicals
>get people in your black city/white forest to get new pokemon
>use entralink to go into others' games
>dream world

Of course, random matchup and wi-fi battling/trading for all, as well (and you got BP for it only in BW2, which was absolutely great).

Gen 5 has a lot of my overall favorite pokemon, but I will concede there are some real shitters in that dex. The genies are fine imo because of their different forms, but I don't like the Tepig line and the shit monkeys are literally indefensible.

Shitty games yes, but only compared to SOME of the other Pokémon games; they're good games overall. There are worse games out there, like RBY (except to nostalgiafags) and DP.

As a side note, I'm wondering if Unovababbies unironically fap to Shitboar, or if they have a different mascot (I remember Zekrom was really popular but they'd probably deem him too "edgy" and "mainstream".)

This....Don't get me wrong I could have easily looked past most of XY's flaws if there was actually stuff to do post game aside from one new town, maison, looker stuff and Friend safari(awesome btw)

Then there's those fucking locked power plant doors in the desert. Why are they even there aside from being gone giant tease?

>>26983279
I enjoyed ORAS more than XY. Yeah I would have really loved the frontier but there's certainly more to do compared to XY.
Copy and paste maison still irks me though.
