Pokémon is amazing, Gamefreak are unrivaled geniuses, gen 6 and 7 are the peak of the main series, gen 5 was wonderful also in 2010, Switch Pokémon era had the worst base generations and the 2 worst remakes but generally speaking it was still incredible, and in fact, probably even the best era all considered.

I will keep loving and enjoying Pokémon, doesn't matter what pokemon players say.
