Do people actually unironically think these games have a good story? I've seen too many anons say they do. I couldn't care less about Lillie's shitty family issues and just hoped she would stop interrupting me so I could play the damn game.

the bigger gripe w me is how Unimposing team skull was. At least team flare was just boring because of being rushed/not implemented well, now we’re just goi to be stuck w comic relief “evil” teams

It's the first Pokemon game since gen 2 to put care into its worldbuilding and characters instead of lazily reskinning Kanto, so yes, the story is good, regardless of whether or not you care about Lillie.

That was my favorite part of the story.
We've only ever had clown-looking retards who take themselves too seriously before. So clown-looking retards who don't take themselves seriously and just make a bunch of stupid jokes was funny.
Overall it was still bad but at least I had a fun time for my first playthrough.

SM don’t have a good story. What they do have is a good sense of community. Because Alola was smaller and you had a more concentrated cast of characters, you were more engaged with them. If you liked the characters, you would enjoy it, but if you didn’t like them, then the experience would be unbearable.

We still have clown looking retards who take themselves too seriously in the form of Aether and Lusamine. USUM had to come in and fix SM's self-serious story.

The game really doubles down on the theme of invasiveness. Not only in hyperbolic terms of the ultrabeasts, but also in terms of the league, and what it means for the Pokemon world to *not* conform to the standard. Its an introspective and thoughtful look, and whilst the execution is as lacklustre as usual, it begs a lot of questions and prompts a lot of thought more than most other games in the series. If you don't like that, that's fine. If you don't see that, you're probably braindead.

Agreed. Pacing is shot, gameplay is butchered, plot is underrealized, but the world-building is the best the series has seen, and I had a lot of fun thinking about it all even if actually playing the game was a chore.

You seeing things that aren't there to justify your attraction to little girls is what's delusional.

I guess, but I would’ve forgiven the team skull mischief bullshit of a aether had a more drawn out narrative. I like colosseum, gale of darkness and DP’s narratives, but I doubt we will get anything like those again. Take into account the pointless that was team yell and by Gen 10 we’ll probably just get nick jr. stylized plots

Team yell felt like a shitty attempt to remake what made skull if nothing else refreshing. Very underwhelming. Doesn't help that Guzma is way more involved than Piers.

team skull is probably the 2nd best villainous team because they're not moustache twirlingly evil or just straight up retarded. A bunch of misfits and outcasts from society who banded together after failing the gyms and now have no real purpose but strong bonds between the members.

Then look at what came after that.

>WE HAVE NO STORY OR ARC
>WE HAVE NO MOTIVATIONS OR GOALS

Most of that green text other than the first bit and the party cones fits team skull. A bunch of losers who throw up gang signs and do nothing other than loiter and lower the quality of life wherever they are.

I give guzma and plumeria even a pass but the general team skull is a pain to encounter

I don't think Gen 7's mainline games have a good story, no. I think it's a combination of fake positivity, parroting, meme magic, and the fact that Lillie is a girl and her mother is a porno bait MILF.

How is this even a post?

Literally all of Johto, but especially Ecruteak City.

>characters
Silver, and to a lesser extent all of Team Rocket.

It absolutely is not. Even if you don't like Generation 5 it did put a big emphasis on characterization.

Also, Generation 3 and 4 did worldbuilding too? Especially 4 with all of the different myths. I don't know where you're getting this lazily reskinning Kanto bit from. You sound like you're jaded.

I don't understand people's criticism of the games.
cutscenes
rotom annoying
linear
I got none of those feelings while playing, if anything I found them to be some of the most enjoyable games, probably the best of the 3d games.
