>>45680890Gen 5 was when the franchise started really fucking up. It took the style of gen 4 and then ruined it, it took the idea of gen 1 and ruined it, it took the fun of the franchise and started digging the hole that buried the franchise.
I replayed gen 1 a lot, but never finished any playthrough due to renting it from blockbuster and having save files keep getting deleted.
I replayed gen 2's gold and crystal maybe five times from start to beating red.
I replayed gen 3's ruby exactly three times, and then stopped.
I replayed Diamond 6 times, and then capped the playtime on Platinum five other times, and adding heart gold 20+ runs not including randomizers, its easily my favored gen.
Gen 5 I started a second playthrough and stopped before getting halfway through, the onyl thing i remember from that game that was fun was fighting cynthia.
Gen 6 I started a second playthrough but never got to the second gym, and while it was somewhat fun, it didnt have that spark.
Gen 7 I never started a new game because the game wasnt fun, i cheated a shit ton in sun, and the extent of my fun was just using mimikyu.
Havent, and will not play Gen 8, unless the diamond and pearl remakes are platinum remakes and they do everything right, including removing gen 8 pokemon from the game entirely.
