I have Pokemon fatigue. It was a good game decades ago, but now it only exists in a bubble of weirdos who build monuments to capitalism in their living spaces.

I try to breathe
Memories overtaking me
I try to face them but the thought
Is too much to conceive
I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of
The darkness that my life became 'cause
I just needed someone to talk to
You were just too busy with yourself
You were never there for me to express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface
I am scratching is the bed that I have made

I don't have Pokémon fatigue because I saw the writing on the wall and bailed almost a decade ago. Gens 1-5 are good, 6-7 isn't good but I'm willing to recognize it as still being Pokémon, but Dexit was the tipping point where it became clear this shit was never getting better and I haven't even pirated a Pokémon game released since. If I get the itch I play a ROMhack.

Careful, slop eaters on /v/ will tell you that Dexit was a good thing! because poor Gamefreak could never squeeze in so many Pokemon into one game, that would be infeasible or whatever bullshit they pull out of their ass.

I really think they fucked up the series by Ruby Sapphire, I know a lot of the current playerbase got into the franchise with them, but that's when they dropped Catch Them All from the boxes and made you need to own like 8 games and accessories to complete the pokedex.

the problem is mostly that gamefreak have the reins for mainline pokemon games and they just have had no idea what they're doing for many, many years
there are some cool fangames at least but you're probably never going to get anything worthwhile out of gamefreak

Nintendo fans in general over the age of 16 are mentally ill. We have 35 year old men spamming threads about paying 20 dollars for an emulator and ROM with a wrongthink word filter, no online functionality, and Nintendo spyware running the background. It's just sad.

The last time I paid any meaningful attention to pokemon was to make fun of the ice cream cone. I'm glad it still exists though. The devs know that their mission is to design cute girls. This they do well and fan art does them justice.

I left after being bored by Gen 3. It was the beginning of the end. While Gen 2 is deeply flawed I liked the overall esthetics. Unfortunately, Game Freak wanted to prove just how bad they are at making video games.

Gen 3 is a step up over gen 2 in every way imo, though I prefer the more minimalist pixel art of gen 2 over 3.

Damage control? I browse this place. I've seen thread after thread just non stop shitting on the price point. That's fine. I've long accepted you trannies bitching. But you are literally insane if you think the threads here haven't been ANYTHING but shitting on those games. How brown are you?

Why genwun fags think they are some kind of authority about pokemon and when it "peaked"? People don't say shit like Castlevania, Megaman, Resident Evil, Yakuza, Dark Souls should stopped at 1, just move on and play another thing instead of being a pretendious fag.

>pretending the trade evos are off limits
Funny way to tell us you have no friends lmao
Also funny that the image leaves out the entire rest of the Johto dex, probably because those are actually awesome and wouldn't fit your narrative, eh?
Btw Gen 3 is the end of Pokemania and the start of the paypig era, see >>734157716
Hoennkeks forever seething that they're not part of the classic era lmao

It's quite literally
>I have an opinion on the state of this franchise I played as a kid and haven't played in 25 years, and everybody needs to know it.
This is especially prevalent with pokemon for some reason. I liked the playstation crash bandicoot games, but I have no opinion on the ones that came after because I have no frame of reference for them. They didn't ruin my love for the franchise just because the games that came after were different. This is not the case for pokefags and it's really gay.

>retard playing the exceptionalism card
everyone hates the jeet spyro remakes. they raped the art direction
as for crash, the remake fared better, but the hitbox change was atrocious. 4 was a pozfest with tawna and the dreamworks-esque designs. they ruined coco, and the game is padded as all fuck, making 100% completion, crash's bread and butter, a fucking chore
kill yourself marketer

>>734155275
Honestly yeah, I like the setting and the mon designs and I've stuck with the franchise longer than you have but something sorta clicked recently seeing how much this series just promotes the fuck out of brainless consumption and consumerism, both in-game and in a meta sense
Buy buy buy buy, collect collect collect collect

Needing multiple games (and special IRL events) to complete the dex was scummy bullshit that always existed in the series. Forget oblivion horse armour, gamefreak was doing this bullshit back in the 90s.
If the series had integrity it wouldn't be red and blue it would just be pokemon then gen 2 would be pokemon 2 etc.
