>>40835084>Nice revisionism but this isn’t true at all. SM’s story was regarded as the best Pokémon has had, with the others being BW’s and ORAS’s.S/M was good for the novelty of the region. The plot itself was... what? "Go do the trials! Oh btw your moms friend is nutty and merged with an alien pokemon". That was it. The UB's were postgame content.
BW's plot was great, and I'm glad B2W2 followed it up. X/Y was trash, the other Gen's all riff off one another. When was the last time we had a story that JUST impacted the region? I don't think we've had one literally since Gen 2.
>>40835144> nothing outlandish as this trash>Gen 3 was awakening legendaries to change the entire earth with their power>Gen 4 was remaking the Universe>Gen 5 was actually good but still "wanting to rule the world"Gen 6 was lifewiping and domination shit.
Gen 7 was as said above, alien pokemon and multiversal stuff.
Gen 8 is "they have power but want to focus it 100% on the region over petty shit like the league/their title".
Yeah, THIS is the outlandish plot.
