>>32185957>RSE were literally the games when pokemon stopped being a phenomenonYeah, I guess the wording is wrong
>Although some people did find the games themselves to be mediocreMost critics to it are retarded and, at best, a justification for people growing out of pokemon rather than an actual comment on the game.
>Nostalgiafags don't really remember gen 2 in all honesty they just kind of blend it all together due to the anime.Doesnt mean they don't approve Gen 2. Nostalgiafags don't properly remember Gen 1 either though.
>As for the "hate" that's fairly recent.Depends. RSE came out like 12 years ago, but even if you don't count that as hate, nostalgiafags aren't a recent phenomenon, it started around 2010, 7 years ago.
>Prior to that it was essentially the "It's just there game" where it didn't particularly stand out. Very few people legitimately hated it.You havent talked much to nostalgiafags I take it. At most you could argue its not hated more than Gen 4 to 7 as all come after Gen 2, but its hated. Mainly because its the first game of pokemon going "downhill" (AKA stop being trendy). Go could have been a good way of reversing this a bit but...well it didnt.
