>Why /rpg/? Gen V wasn't that long ago.
Firstly, the cutoff was more meant to reflect what seemed to be the point where Pokémon had a drastic change in direction rather than it being related to age. Additionally, with Gen V also being on the DS, online multiplayer is only available through custom servers. Playing games that aren't officially supported anymore is kind of the point of this general.
We had considered other names like 2D Pokémon General (/2dg/) and Classic Pokémon General (/cpg/), but >/cpg/ and we wanted to be inclusive of older games like Colosseum that fall into pre Gen VI territory but are not necessarily 2D. We put it to a vote back in thread #3 and the majority seemed to want /rpg/, so here we are.
