circa gen 5
>walking with Pokemon, auto-run, contests and safari zone removed. no replacement for the game corner at all
haha it's alright though, gen 5's engine is really fast and feels good. despite this, the games still have a lot of charm and a good story. having only new Pokemon in the game is refreshing and makes seeing old ones in the post-game fun. Musicals suck but i'm sure followers and contests will make a return once they buff them out.
>gen 6
plot has some holes but clearly hint at them being resolved sometime in the future. character customization is great and the PSS and super training make online as seamless as they've ever been. the switch to 3d models means they can personalize each Pokemon on the fly. games still are as fast as gen 5 despite the rushjob.

yooo we're finally off the grid! dexnav is how encounters should have been from the beginning, shame about the battle frontier but it'll be added in a z-expansion right? it's all been building up to this.
>SM reveal
a new gen? already? it looks goo- wait.. why is everything so fucking slow? It shouldn't take this long to mash through text or wait for animations to play out. that fade to black shit is annoying but.. at least the story is good? zygarde is here? Bank can't transfer back to gen 6? what about e-floette and zygarde's moves.. the map seems kinda rushed like XY
>USUM
wtf I thought we we done with third versions? and this time it's TWO?! At least we'll get to explo- ultra space is a hallway? and the plot doesn't make sense anymore... fuck
>LGPE
WHAT THE FUCK. Okay you know what, this is fine. It's only got Kanto so it's a spin-off. Even if it's clearly a hackjob without breeding/day/night it's got it's charm. Wait for 2019..
>Gen 8 Reveal
Nice! Looks like we're right above Kalos. Game looks a lil choppy but it'll be worth the wait, they sai-
