Aight vp.

Tell me why you think these games are good.

I’m going to keep it real with you all, I don’t see how anyone could call these games the best and I personally believe they’re the worst games in the franchise, nearly ruining the franchise.

(Favorite gen is Gen 2, for reference when you all go “SINNOH FAGGOT” “GENWUNNER”)

Gen 1 sucks, gen 2 sucks, gen 3 sucks, gen 4 sucks, gen 5 sucks, gen 6 sucks, and gen 7 sucks. (Gen 8 is not a Pokemon game)

However, gen 5 is kino, so at very least it's the best in the series

I have Soul Silver, Colosseum and Leaf green original and yes, not him but they are shitty games. Many other RPGs are way better, but please, small indie company made by two guys drinking coffee and one third making music. So don't go hard on them.

There are totally better RPGs, even in the Turn-Based JRPG format. I’m a huge fan of final fantasy. They are better then Pokémon, but Pokémon is nostalgic for all of us in some way, that’s why we’re here anon.

Why would I think you're a sinnohfetus?

New dex (i like em, what can i say), animated sprites (the shit i like from 3D with the shit i like from 2D), AMERICA, culmination of the series' mechanics, hidden abilities, N, Plasma as a whole, i fucking love weather wars. there, i said it. sun represent!, on the DS which is hands down the best handheld in terms of holding it. it shits on every other I can think of except maybe the GBSP for it's verticality, and seasons.

Of course, BW2 is my favorite game, but this is what I like about BW.

In what way? I thought they were visually appealing, the region felt lively, the music was nice, I liked a lot of the new pokemon designs, it at least took the formula and built colorful things around it. I disliked how many features were inaccessible during normal gameplay, dream radar shit, lack of notable side content like contests but overall I felt like it was at least a better-feeling and appealing game than d/p even if it was anemic feature-wise even compared with hgss. Certainly better than the railroading that has come to dominate latter titles.

But why? It won't convince you to think otherwise. Besides, I don't really care if you dislike them or not, as long we are able to agree to disagree on the subject and move on.

First off, Black/White 1 didn't recycle mons from previous gens. No more pidgeys or zubats or tentacools. It's just all new Unova mons up until you beat the champion. Kanto, johto, hoenn, and sinnoh aren't widely available until post-game.
Not since the original Red/Blue has a game given you the pleasure of just constantly seeing brand new faces all the time. No recycled mons from past gens here.

Second, its villains are the most morally gray in the series. They just want to end pokemon slavery. When I first played it, their stated goal wasn't an evil one and that left me feeling conflicted. We DO kidnap mons from wild, force them to fight against their will, and we DO gain profit and fame from their slavery. Sure, other than the idealistic N, most Plasma members were just scumbags using this goal as an excuse to gain power. But I'm still left unsatisfied with the answer the MC gave as to why pokeslavery is okay.
"These slaves are my friends and they're okay with being my slaves. Also, I'm the MC and I always have the highground."
No. No. That's not a good answer.

I don't think they're good
but I do still think they're the best mainline games as they have the most polished system when it comes to battling and the pacing throughout the main game is far better than BW2. The only things that really drag it down in comparison to other mainline games are the lack of wild variety (early routes are especially barren) and
>hi look I'm NPC with elemental monkey 1
>hi look I'm NPC with elemental monkey 2
>hi look I'm NPC with elemental monkey 3
throughout the entire game

Why i liked White:
Very good antagonists, both N and Ghetsis. They have logical goals, and nice speeches, N is also in a morally gray area.

Musicals. A bit simplistic, but very cute, and dressing up your pokemon is awesome, even if it's just accessories, i wish more games did that.

Great soundtrack.

Battle subway is great and available early. I really liked that.

Pokemon designs. Unironically, fifth generation has more pokemon i love than other generations.

Reshiram and Zekrom are pretty good and have a nice little legend.

Cities and bridges designs are cool.

I feel like it's a more modern version of Gen 1, in more than just some mon designs. The map design is actually pretty similar, generally speaking. Yes the main story is linear, but Gen 1's nonlinearity just came down to a couple of gym battles being swapped around. Where the actual similarities arise is truly optional content. The biggest examples are surf unlocking two legendaries while the third sits at Victory Road. Of course, Unova has a few other things going on with surf, but so does Kanto. Unova is a bit more postgame than main game, unlike Kanto which is basically all main game. Another great thing is that most of the routes don't waste your fucking time. Yeah, they've got trainer battles, but they don't have any of Sinnoh's many many time wasting elements that I got super fucking sick of. Like, Hoenn was pretty reasonable, how the fuck is Sinnoh so bad? But on the other hand, if you're willing to put in a little exploration, most routes have a little something extra for you.
It's not all sunshine and rainbows though. Pokemon distribution is pretty good overall, although certain types do end up grouped together a lot. The main exception is before the first gym, which gives you basically nothing but shitmons in order to railroad you in to the first gym which is basically a type matchup tutorial. There's also a lot more cutscenes than some previous games (although I will say it's interesting that the glitchless DP speedrun is slower than the similar BW speedrun). I'll give them credit in that most can be mashed through AND the character that does most of the talking has a faster text speed than everyone else.
I guess it comes down to presentation beyond that, because I think Gen 5 got that down really well. The Sinnioh games lacked that, DP especially, but HGSS got the presentation down really well too. Overall, I don't see how they're the worst games, but I can also see how you'd prefer something else that's also mostly competent over it.
