>>38188892It's impossible to discuss genuine hatred for this game, because everyone is going to assume you're mad about ice cream or whatever the fuck.
I don't give a shit about the Pokedex. It's got good designs, it's got bad designs. The only thing I don't like about them trying to make an all-new regional Pokedex is that they chose to do it in the fucking horrible games so now no one can discuss them without their points not even being fucking read, and dismissed as complaining about ice cream.
To sum up the actual complaints:
>The story is absolutely terrible, and GameFreak made it a point of emphasis>It's fucking 2011 and you still can't skip all the bad dialogue with one button press what the fuck is this shit>Cheren and Bianca never fucking leave you alone>You even have to watch Bianca sit through her stupid-ass daddy issues>The part of the series I actually enjoy, the gym challenge/elite four, gets cockblocked at the last second by the evil team plot, the absolute worst part of every game>Evil teams have never been good, and Team Plasma is the fucking worst>Seasons seems like a neat feature until you have to wait three months to catch the Pokemon you want to use on your story team>Having 2D sprites and 3D models in the overworld worked well in Gen IV, because there was a fixed camera; in Gen V, it looks like shit because the sprite scaling is horrible>Removal of features from HG/SS like a running shoes toggle and following Pokemon>The C-Gear is useless, especially compared to the Poketch and HG/SS's bottom screen menu>Hilda is the worst protagonistI'm sure there's more that I've forgotten. B2/W2 didn't fix much at all, and the only good thing about them is all the side modes (Join Avenue, Pokestar Studios, PWT)
and Rosa.
