I miss when there were no Fairy type Pokemon.
I miss when there were no Z-Moves.
I miss when there were no Mega Evolutions.
I miss when the Pokemon world was in the real world.
I miss when real world animals existed in Pokemon.
I miss when Pokemon hadn't become a watered-down copycat of itself.

Legendaries weren't important especially in Gens 1 and 2. You could've gone through the entire game without seeing or hearing from a single legendary. Same deal applies in Gen 2. Of the 9 legendaries in that game, you would have to go out of your way to get 6 of them and the other 3 you could run into on complete accident. And most of the time you'd have to actively chase them down to get them. Legendaries didn't start getting important until Gen 3 where the game's plot started revolving around them.

Thats what MADE them good Legendaries. Making them like Legends, and not forcing them down your throat like shiny gifts

I agree, OP. Everyone who doesn't is a literal faggot.

Pokemon's reach has exceeded it's grasp.

The premise of kids catching and collecting tameavoe monsters was appealing enough. We didn't need all this retarded shit.

I miss when they actually made IMPORTANT legendaries relevant to the history of Pokemon. It's like after they made the literal God pokemon they were like "uuhh, fuckin, yin yang dragons? Peace and destruction? Reaching into other dimensions? I dont fucking know."

Pokemon should've ended at Gen 4, or at least, the powercreep of legendary lore should have ended there.

It did end there. You literally cannot get stronger than Dialga/Palkia/Arceus. Every gen after is Gamefreak trying to moderate their lore because even they knew the creation legends were a bit much.

Gen 4 was interesting BECAUSE of the creation theme it had. They just haven't attempted to build on it further. Sure we got an arceus movie, but there wasn't much to take away besides heatran being there.

We need a true 'beginning of the pokemon world' movie/game.

We really don't. If you want something that panders to the games that defined your childhood that much go play some other JRPG. I'd rather stick to something simple rather than something that annihilates my suspension of disbelief. The fact that they managed to top gen 3 in this regard only makes it worse.

Oh look! Pikachu and few of the other POKEMON SPECIES is similar! Maybe we could create a word for this, maybe MOUSE. Like we called water types with fins FISH.
It's just a classification, not well made but not totaly irratonal.

Anon you might be retarded. I miss when legendary Pokémon were actually that: species of legend. As in, they were entire species not just one of each in the universe. And they were the sort of thing that maybe this local old man or that crazy hermit woman would have claimed to see. Rare, but present enough to engender legend and folk tale. I miss when legendaries were the subject of anime episodes like when Ash helped Articuno out on that snowy mountain that one time in Johto (I think it was?). I miss when they were properly nestled into the lore in this way, and used sparingly--instead of each game having sixteen legendaries all made up for the express purpose of selling another movie title. You know, when they were "legendary."

when there are a hundred legendaries in the game, they're not really that uncommon are they? I miss when they were folded into the story, bottom up. I hate that the stories are pulled out of them top down now.

This.
That's what made them feels special.
They were hard to find, they were not constantly referred to.
A legend is something no one knows if it is real.
If fucking everyone knows that this pokémon exists, it stops being a legend, it is a fact.

Some of these points are kinda pretemptious tho

>If you're frozen you'd neve thaw unless somebody used a fire move on you or haze
It doesn't sound that bad if you think about it. "Oh no, a magical monster that can shoot ice out of his mouth has just covered my pokemon in some magical ice that can never thaw!"

>you had to save every time you wanted to switch boxes
complaining about the hardware limitations of the early 90s is dumb af

>if you use substitute when you have 25% of your HP you would die
what's the fucking point? If substitute needs 25% of your HP, why would you even attempt at using it when you are at 25% of your HP?

>as soon as Rage connects, the pokemon will stop obeying you
isn't your pokemon stop listening you and attacking out of pure hatred/rage the whole point of Rage?

>Blizzard has 90% of accuracy
>waaaaaah a strong move is also accurate waaaaah
