It was the first gen where I really got to play online with friends (due to living in bumfuck nowhere), had a lot of fun doing stuff like the Friend Safaris and trying on outfits. Found my very first shiny, too.

Swsh is easily the most overhated pokemon game of all time. No fucking way is it a worse game than XY.

No it isn't.
SwSh are not the worst games in the mainline only because SV is worse for being unfinished.

I enjoyed the hell out of the online, first gen I got super into competitive thanks to how accessible it was for non-cheaters. Friend Safari, PSS, all that good shit too.
I have never replayed it, I always go for ORAS as my go-to 3DS game, I don't play gen 7 either, and in gen 7 I didn't even bother with online because it was so trash.
But overall I enjoyed XY, yes, at the time.

unovaborts can't conceive of the fact people found XY just okay despite the objective flaws you can enumerate, and that it's still appreciated for what it did for the scene even if people don't go back to it

Pokemon XY are known as the 'God Game' in Japan.

Meanwhile, Gen V is known as the dark ages and a major setback for the series.

I can derive fun out of easy. I can not derive fun out of easy and boring. XY is both.

And your mother is known as the 'Massive Whore' in Japan. A major setback for all of humanity. Source? Apparently an Anon's word is good enough.

Yeah
Really brought the series back after the dark ages of gen 4 and 5. Glad Game Freak were willing to shake things up instead of just rehashing gen 3 with zero positive changes for a third time.

it simply isn't possible for a game that doesn't even have every obtainable mon that existed at the time to be better than one that does. swsh is inferior for that alone, as well as the other switch games

I remember the spider web gym, the rock climbing gym, the fairy gym leader, the ice town, the fact there's a desert, lumiose city, skating, a cliff route, that you can get a mewtwo, the Xerneas / Yveltal fight, the AZ reunion, and that's about it as far as memories that weren't influenced by things seen again years afterward that would have jogged the memory

It was the worst gen in terms of gameplay. The engine is molasses, the phys/spec split gutted almost every old mon. Garbage, don't know how zoomers can stomach it.

You know XY is good when the best arguments its detractors have to grasp at are an obscure bug that was patched a week after release and "kanto pokemon show up in the game"

years after the fact only its haters talk about how slow they supposedly are, which tells you most people didn't particularly notice a speed issue at the time
even saving a lot of data is remembered as just a minor annoyance

as for the physical special split, it was, in fact, a mixed bag, but it wasn't a shitmon holocaust by any means
if anything, the existence of stealth rock had a larger impact on lower tier mons' competitive viability than the split did

it introduced Mega Evolution which started the trend of power creep gimmicks and lazy rehashes of older pokemon like Paradox mons and Convergent Evolutions

Mega Evolutions of non-legendaries aren't that strong
the game was already massively powercrept by Unova's donut steel kanto clones
