>>39416452the gen 5 dex is full of ugly shitmons. less to do with nostalgia and more "holy fuck is swoobat dumb looking as shit, so no, i dont give a shit to memorize what type it is. which makes it a goddamn PITA to know how to 1HKO which means i have to look at its stupid face that much longer and now i dont like this game"
it's easy to incidentally pick up a pokemon's type when it's a one-off in a route of at least a few pokemon whose typing you *do* know/care about enough to catch and find out its type, but fuck me 80% of the unovadex is shit
and then i catch rufflet because braviary is a badass, and i had to check 3 different sites to check how to evolve it because the idea of a relatively weak basic form not evolving until level 55(?) is fucking retarded
N is an unlikeable character and the "plot" is essentially encountering him every few cities, which is essentially a prototype version of lillie. the TWEEST where you clear the game by fighting N and Ghetsis instead of the champion is not that interesting at all. it's not a change to the formula, it's just swapping out a variable of the same formula
BW vs B2W2 isnt a SM vs USUM where i genuinely cant tell which version is worse, B2W2 is a straight upgrade of BW and i cant think of anything B2W2 omits that is actually good for much
