>>36800351Fuck it, I'll go over each gen
>Gen1-The one that started it all; only worthwhile season of the anime
-Shit mechanics and balancing, a lot of designs don't really hold up well
>Gen2-Great core additions such as genders, splitting up special, etc
-retarded distribution for new mons, level curve
>Gen 3-Archies and Maxies plans are charming in a stupid way. Great new Pokemon designs
-fucking awful rivals
>Gen4-physical/special split, cross gen evos
-slow as shit HP bars, HM spamfest
>Gen5 -Mature narative that tells an interesting story without hindering the pacing
-retarded evolution levels
>Gen 6-Quality of life improvements, massive pokemon selection
-started the nostalgia pandering, awful "friends", piss easy
>Gen 7-best battle themes and character designs in the series
-just about anything else
