Well if you follow the persons making these posts they all dropped Pokémon after pokemania, hence why their nostalgia ends with johto and their obsession with Red as a Trainer.
Are you following me? Because this is where it gets funny, after growing out of Pokémon you can see that they moved to different franchises that were seen as more mature, this is where the boom of first person shooters started to happen as well as the rise of popularity on ARPG brought by some companies starting the 2000s,if we move a bit further we also encounter the first continued instances of this crew complaining about the 4th gen not being 3d and coincidentally we find the first instances of "I want the games to be more like the Anime and dodge attacks". This started around the era most RBY fans started going to college and a second boom of Pokémon started.
And boy this reached its peak with the sudden popularity of sandbox Games and climaxed around BW release, this is where this mentality metastasized and the genwun term finally came to form, a complete dislike of Pokémon gameplay, it's graphics and an unwavering nostalgia to gen 1 and 2 due to Red and Kanto.
Search the archives, 16 badges, 2regions, open world non linear, Kanto only became the screeches of these faggots.
As well as the start of terrible fan content around this philosophy, then we jumped to 3d and you see their effects remaining almost the same to this day.
