I'll accept the 250 up to G/S, but everything after is a poorly designed abomination and should be consigned to the wastebasket. :twisted:

I've only ever played Red, that's where Pokémon begins and ends for me. :P

My son has been watching the series recently and anytime it includes a "new" (i.e. post 150) Pokémon they just look ridiculous to me, like they weren't even trying!

I get that it's supposed to be more about the gameplay and writing, but I'm not feeling it at all at the moment. The Skeletons are...fine, I guess, but I don't know if they're enough to keep me playing. I also hadn't realised that it had some sort of mass following so expect I'm probably missing the punchline.

With this, Night in the Woods and Pool Panic all leaving me feeling :| of late, I'll really need to stop buying Indy Darling games (for want of a better term) on a whim.

I'm sorry, Club Switch, please feel free to tell me how wrong I am :cry:


Didn't get the love for it either. The combat is interesting, but everything else just didn't interest me. I finished it, but I have no inclination to play it again.

It isn't Gone Home levels of shitness though.


I only played Gone Home long enough to open a drawer and throw a pen. That was enough for me.

I did remember one bit in Undertale that raised a smile (Papyrus' reaction to the tile puzzle 'randomly generating' all pink tiles was like something out of Monkey Island) so I'll give it more of a chance than I did with that.

Agreed.

I appreciate this post. Although Exeggcute gets a slight pass from me because it and Exeggutor are based on youkai (specifically the Jinmenju). Mind you, so are a lot of the inanimate object 'Mons.

The original 151 are only remembered as being superior because we grew up with them, watched them in the anime, and let our young people's imagination fill in the gaps. Strip away the nostalgia and every generation of Pokémon has winners and losers.

Gen. IV. just loses more often than most.

Down at the Pokémon factory:

"We need more Pokémon stat!"
"But we've used up all the interesting ideas?!"
"strawberry float it, just take either a real animal or insect, stick some spots, swirls or lines on it and give it a zig-zag tail. Job done!"
"You got it boss!"

Off the top of my head, I can remember Mimikyu, the Vikavolt line, the box legendaries and the starters from Gen 7, and that's legitimately it.

Meanwhile, at the Digimon factory...

"Blob!"
"Blob with a horn!"
"Puppy!"
"Dog!"
"Dog with pants!"
"Dog with pants and gun!"
"Dog who is a gun!"

It's really weird. In Era, people as saying it's "good", "awful" and everything in between. I'm wondering if some folk are just posting an opinion after three seconds of play... or even no play :shifty: .

:lol: . I put about five or six hours into it. All on the first stage 8-) .

Yeah but you missed out that the dog who is a gun is also a hundred feet tall.

Well that's a fusion, I don't really count it as part of the line.

Poor Umbreon and Espeon :(

Umbreon by far my favourite Eevee evolution as well. I think every gen has some decent Pokémon and some awful ones, granted the later ones seem to have more bad than good ones though.

Colosseum and Gale of Darkness vaulted the Eeveelution line to my favourites, so I always take the opportunity to use them. Umbreon and Espeon being joint first, with Flareon and Eevee joint second and Jolteon just behind at third.

Also, if I was to get a Switch image and put that little creation on there, would people fall for it?
