I'm perfectly happy replaying gen 1 for the rest of my life from time to time. What I want out of the pokemon universe is all there, other gens do nothing but ruin the vibe that made me fall in love with it.
Not having new constant soulless and artistically repugnant pokemon games shoved down my throat every other year frees up headspace and time to enjoy so many other games outside the franchise. I invite you to expand your horizons instead of remaining trapped in the incestuous vomit cesspool of brand consoomerism.
