Besides the Pokémon designs, why is Gen 5 generally disliked?

because everyone at school bullied me for still liking pokemon in generation 3 and 4 and when gen 5 came out I was an edgy teen who wanted to like mature games and not get bullied so i convinced myself it was bad

Full story focus
Painfully linear and tutorialized
Dropped a lot of the mechanics of the previous gen and started the trend of "new gimmick meant just for this gen" (dropped ones included Secret Bases, which had been built upon since Gen 2, contests and ribbons, built upon since Gen 3, and the gimmicks being seasons (which shittily replaced day/night pokemon) and dream world.
Multiple gens one console gen for no reason, gen 5 has a bunch of features that would've worked perfect with the 3DS but it's not a 3DS game because ???
Hahaha the C Gear

Yes a lot of newer gens do all of these much worse, but Gen 5 started a lot of trends. This doesn't make Gen 5 in itself a bad gen, I think they're still great overall, but was the start of the downfall.

White and black force players to slowdown and talk to the gymleader when they enter a town and there are a lot of cutscenes and pointless detours needed to get to the fun exploring and battles
Also no pokemon game has a good story so forcing a bad story down any player's throat wouldn't go well

I still wonder how it's disliked when everyone and their mom seems to praise it (but I suppose that's both Gen 5 titles moreso than just BW). I remember the initial hate on it but now that SwSh is the fire to the oil of discussions, BW gets praised by a lot of people each time it's mentioned.

It's gonna be weird in like 5-8 years when everyone praises SwSh to be some revolutionary groundbreaking top tier pokemon game.

It was the start to the modern games like X/Y.
If you ask me it's gen 3 that started the fucking trends people rag gen 5 for.

Gen 5 did what the more recent gens failed to do and honestly even gen 5 had some faults for trying such a controversial theme. Issue is GF backpedals and it ruins the game's plot. i.e. Ghetsis and the Shadow Triad are easily the thing I think ruin the story, almost everything else is decent and is only bad because GF can't write dialogue well.

-Started the awful trend of dropping concepts that had become maintains to the series like berry farming and secret bases and replacing them with gen-specific mechanics.
-Start of excessive handholding and casualization: "Oh no first gym might be too bad! Here have an elemental monkey strong against the leader."
-Very poor graphics
-Really bad case of power creep of broken stats and abilities given left and right and completely unbalanced compared to the last 2 gens.

Everything bad about the last gens can be traced back to gen 5 in some way. The games themselves weren't per se bad (and I do love me some BW2) but it was clearly the "slippery slope" gen that hurt the franchise way more in the long term.

Every gen had an easy win for the first gym, gen was the starters or the nidoran/mankey.
Gen 2 gave you a geodude and 3 you have like 3 different mons that could cuck the gym.

RSE started casualizing m8, that's the games that started to mandatorily shove tutorials down your throat.

Gen 4 had heavy power creep from Garchomp and the Rotoms what are you saying???

Every flaw you are making here applies to the GBA and DS games as a whole, go back and play them and tell me they DON'T do that.

Red and Blue.
To the point
Doesn't slow down too much.
Focus is you beating your neighbor.
The mod gets in your way to victory.
You find all sorts of legends along the way.
You aren't handheld the whole way.
Ends on you beating your rival and crushing his dreams and him getting scolded by family.

Tell me that ain't a decent plot that isn't verbose and can be effective.

RSE made the legendary mandatory and it wasn't the mob but a bunch of dumbass ecoterrorists.
DPPt just sucked fight me.
BW was alright but verbose and backpedaled all the damn time.
BW2 is just shit plot wise.
XY don't exist story wise.
Sun and Moon had alright plot but they had shit pacing.
WTF is S/S's plot? I can't remember shit,

R/B lack any of those direct issues on the plot and thus it's pure if you will.

I just hate N and Team Plasma as a whole. Poorly written and in result it lead to rushing more interesting characters like Cheren and Bianca. There's a lot of ugly Pokemon in Gen 5, but I remember mostly the nicer ones. Remove N from the story and the game quality would improve greatly.

N would still be poorly written by default. He has zero growth as a person, only getting more frustrated with you, the player, for stomping his shit in. It takes Ghestis pulling the rug from under him for him to even show any development but it's so artificial it's stupid. Cheren and Bianca having their arcs rushed also leave a bitter taste in my mouth (Bianca's arc ends literally just from Elesa saying a few words to Bianca's dad and Cheren was being an autist who was stopped by Alder instead of having it build up to Alder saving him when he was near the edge of his autism). It's just so bad on so many fronts and it's due to the game prioritizing N of all people.

If you ask me the rivals really didn't need to be there. They almost never contribute to the whole Plasma problem like you do and end up doing nothing but halting you every route to say HEY which is repetitive and annoying. Oh so HEY STOP is Cheren's catchphrase? That isn't something I want to hear when I want to be on my own.

In other RPGs they would've made them walk with you as part of the party, which would make more sense. Since this is pokemon though they are just random people who just steal the limelight and just bog the pace.
N does develop from fighting you, if you remember the last scene the reason he fights you is to see if he was wrong all along, and he was. Sure he is an idiot but remember that's Ghetsis's fault, if N was just some contrarian who want to see the world change for what he felt was for the better i might have been a bit better.

This confuses me to no end. Gens 6-8 have been inundated with such Gen 1 nostalgia that you'd figure a gen that's confident enough in its designs to use them exclusively until you beat the main story would receive some respect for that.

These are my biggest issues with it, I don't think BW is near the worst but I see a lot of the modern day trappings pokemon has originate here. Luckily it's a little redeemed for me by locking you to the new pokemon, which while I don't love the Unova pokedex, it was certainly a cool idea.

Every game is generally disliked and then in a couple years everyone looks back on it and realizes that it wasn't so bad.

I don't think XY will ever get that status though. I see a lot of people say its not that bad but my god I've hated gen 6 so much I stopped playing pokemon altogether because of it. Picked up GO to do raids with me friend and it made me pick up the games again and once again X was the most boring of all the games. Still don't wanna play Omega Ruby again, Emeralds story works compared to it IMO

Rival is a mixed bag depending on how you play.
The world's logic contradicts gen 1's at times and Lance is a dead giveaway that he's the champ versus a surprise.

Gen 5 was unironically the most soi gen. N was a complete betacuck and everything about these games feels more geared to five year olds than anything before or after, except for gen 7 (in terms of story, not necessarily difficulty even if they're still piss easy compared to gen 1-4). Stop trying to lump them with the good gens fucking unovaborts

They didn't make the jump to a 3D. The others Nintendo Games did it and now you see how good the other games looks. They started to late.

Shit Tweening Animation for older Pokémon. Even in the shadows you see how the tweening animation works.

No, Ranger had the best story. With nostalgia factor getting bigger due to lack of creativity and the closing in of Pokemon's 20th anniversary, The Kanto pandering bullshit was going to happen either way.
Your gameplay still sucks
Your villain still sucks
Your taste still sucks
You blame people like Genwunners for wanting Kanto everywhere yet you fags jerk off Black and White like the faggot contrarians you are instead of playing a game with a good story and actually good villains like Colosseum, Mystery Dungeon and Ranger. If anything, you are just as responsible for accepting such a low brow of storytelling and gameplay. Go fuck yourself with a rusty tire iron

Their vibe was just so different. Less kid-friendly, more edgy and mature. The toned-down colors, the music's rhythmic weirdness, the elaboration of the warm, baright, square-y aesthetic. The artistic writing. The cut connection with the Japanese land and vibe. After the comfy, polished Platinum and colorful, positively-nostalgic HGSS (not to mention Gen III's vibrant overworld colors), the transition was a shock, bound to put off especially those who remembered the Pokémon of their childhoods differently. To me, it felt like a fangame that should have always been made, but not by GF, and, frankly, after beating the Tournament, my interest in Pokémon dropped to a cursory and superficial level - Gen 6 killed my passion for the franchise almost completely, and while Gen 7 did revive it somewhat, the only thing I'm doing with Pokémon right now is completing my balltism bank, in hope of getting to actually enjoy it once we get something similar to the Batte Frontier someday. Perhaps the new Dojo thing will have something similar in spirit in the form of the special rulesets mentioned in the trailer? Granted, I could use them for competitive battling, but I suck at keeping up with the metas, and Dynamaxing is just a fucking annoying playstyle I doubt I'll put up with. That said, it's my 3rd year on-and-off on the project and it has been very helpful in keeping me sane on my diet and during the insomnia treatment, so I'm not complaining.

I absolutely loved the shit out of the Unova games and I started with Gen 3 ( though you could say this is the root of my "bad taste".) What I think most people had issue with was the changing of camera angle and how the sprites themselves looked and the main issue of being forced into using only Gen V pokemon for the story (I personally liked it but whatever) and the somewhat lackluster post-game and weird level curve. You could beat N and finish, fly to the league and then fight a somewhat stronger E4 and then be met by Alder with level 80s that proceed to whoop your level 50-60 team (this is what I did). Might be biased but this is what I think.

Gen 5 was too ambitious for people to appreciate for it's time. It would have been even more off the rails if Sugimori didn't stop Masuda from going too far. But maybe that was a good thing because Masuda without someone to question him results in shitty games like XY and LGPE.
