/vp/ - Pokémon » Thread #31407695

HGSS are the most complete Pokemon experience IMO. They capture the essence of Pokemon quite well while providing a lot of content. They include just about everything iconic about the series. Plus they're comfy as fuck.

Exactly. They are the only replayable games with the most content, best post-game, and non-linear or story driven gameplay.

While I'm a huge Johtofag I must say that the horrible level curve alone breaks it. Platinum did everything I loved about gen2, but more competitive gameplay in mind.

Unpopular opinion, but I liked the level curve. It made the Red battle challenging.

Platinum took everything DP did wrong (little) and perfected it. Only game worth playing honestly.

His team was still pretty bad, I beat him with lvl 50 mons (which were bred and EV-trained desu).

Nevertheless I would not use Red as an argument since you can have overleveled boss fight even in a game with otherwise gradually progressing levels.

Gold and Silver are sequels to Red and blue. In a way, you can say they are both one region.

I'm pretty happy with the poll results (Platinum and Sun/Moon are my favs) but I have to ask because I missed out on it:

What do people like about Gen 5 so much?

Along with it being the first game with moving sprites, actually having a decent story (no I'm not memeing) and having a bunch of cool concepts like seasons and responsive open world music. Despite what's been said about it, I also like the wheel-like structure of Unova.

I actually like it better because of the atmosphere, the plot, the difficulty, the world design, the sound design and the fact that double battles superior to singles in every possible way.

Oh and the protagonist.

Nostalgia. More people played D/P over Platinum. It's probably why B/W2 get less votes than the original as well.

Ignoring HGSS, I can mostly agree with BW2 and SM being best.
Also believe BW should be higher than Platinum, but it is /vp/, so I don't expect that.
