That the solution to Game Freak's incompetence at game development is for the series to give up on moving forward and be trapped forever as an indie eshop $10 tier experience.

Yeah, and despite mmo user bases being filled with unlikeable, autistic dipshits I’m sure a Pokémon mmo would have only the most sufferable community. Who wouldn't want to engage with smogonfags, actual children, twittertrannies, and Chris-chan levels of autism? I’m sure the lucario diaper rp’s will be negligible.

Even if a pokemon mmo somehow avoided ALL of that shit i mentioned, great. What changes in the gameplay? What benefit do you gain from pokemon now being an MMO? You're still on a route only now there's maybe a few other Hildas and Dawns silently running back and forth in the grass. Battles and trades have already been doable online for ages and wouldn't change much.
There's extremely little, if anything, that being an MMO would improve, but a vast world of things that it can make worse, and this is gamefreak we're talking about.

Try playing an actual Pokémon game from the last decade.

>You won't be on a route, routes are gone, the games are open world now
>It won't be others of the same character because there is customization
>You won't be running through grass because Pokémon are on the overworld

But besides that, yeah, a Pokémon MMO wouldn't work because Pokémon is a single player series. As long as IVs exist.

They would need to make a Pokémon game where battling other people was fun and worth doing before bothering with an MMO.

Honestly the core battle system of POKeMON is very fun, if they cleaned up a lot of the cancerous crap like weather wars and hazards. it'd be a great PVP thing.

> 7th gen was the worst !!!!

It makes me go crazy honestly. I just don't understand how people can say this while :

- the game have 0 cuts and all the old mechanics implemented
- people whining for decades about having something else than just Gyms, Gen 7 made it different
- cool enemy team
- cool characters
- cool musics
- one of the best anime series
- you (and even Ash in the anime) win the league and actually do your master job
- pokemon designs in this gen are very good for most of them
- the memes during the reveals were on point

And I can go on. The only argument theses people have is
> b..but the game was slow !!... and a lot of cutsgene !!...
Yeah ok, like all pokemon games it has plus and cons, it doesn't make it the "worst gen of all" by far

ehhh an attempt was made i guess but not really. it's basically just the same gym progression but worse. arceus is more of a real change in this sense
i agree with most of your other points tho. and gen 7 is definitely above gen 8 at the very least so people calling it the worst are wrong

I agree with most of those points but you're actually a retard if you don't understand why the breeding was changed in a game where selling pokemon to other players is a big thing.
If you kept your breeders you could just flood the market with 6x31 mons and they would lose all value.
It's actually faster to get what you're breeding for too, provided you have the in-game cash needed. You can completely remove all RNG from the process by just breeding systematically.

As someone that quit at gen 7, i definitely think it's the worst. Yes, it has some good pokemon designs and some of the characters are pretty good like guzma and nanu but as far as actual region design and gameplay goes? no thank you. this isn't really the thread for it so i'm not going to type out a wall of text about why i dont like gen 7 again, but i dont get how someone can play gen 7 and say "yep, gen 6 was worse"

What would you consider decent? In most cases you don't need more than two or three perfect stats for a mon to be viable in PvP, which can be done for like 150k or less if you just catch your own breeders.

That some random generation like gen 4 or 5 should have equal "representation" to gen 1. Not even shitposting. The first 151 Pokemon are the core that the franchise is built on. It's obvious they'd be the ones Gamefreak wants to prioritize keeping relevant, because every other generation dates itself pretty quick.
