I started playing back in '98 with Gen I. While Kalos WAS unfinished and Alola is unreplayable due to the cutscenes I still consider Gen 5 to be the worst, hands down.

I've never been less interested in a character before or since N. And the whole story just felt like a cringefest.

Besides Reuniclus the designs are subpar for most of the mons.

Show me the light, also reveal when you started playing, if Gen 5 was your first then your opinion is invalid.
