Gaming Pokémon Strumfest

I never knew why Gen 5 was severely hated. For me it's one of the best and probably the only time Pokemon actually tried something new in the story.

I always rate them like that :

1- Gen 4: HG/SS and Platinum
2- Gen 5: B/W, B2/W2
3- Gen 3: Emerald and LG/FR.
4- Gen 6: Very, very easy, more than the previous games.
5- Gen 7: Boring, too much hand holding and too much cutscenes. Only games in the series I'll never replay.

As for gen 1 and gen 2, there's no more need to play them with the presence of better remakes.
Imagine one more gen 1 game, would be so boring.

Can't see them doing it. They probably made Let's Go as an experience of how Pokemon will look like on the switch. Next Gen will be as usual, new region + remakes for Pearl/Diamond. Sinnoh will look great on the switch though, that's I'm sure about.

I'm tuned in & ready. Sell me a Switch, Ninty.
 
Don't expect more than a title and the starters for now, S&M reveal direct was 6 mins and they only showed the titles. :lol:

Got exactly what was expected. Release date is actually perfect for me :D Scorbunny :drool:

Been waiting on a Fire/Fighting starter Pokemon for ages. About time.

I only watched a minute or so. Did they show anything about how wild Pokemon will appear in this one?
There was an encounter in the stream and there were none in the overworld. Looks like same old, same old with the quality looking similar to the Sun/Moon games rather than revamped Lets Go.

Might be Fire/Fairy still, I'll give it a chance until I see the final evolution.
 
I'm excited for this. Can't wait to get more details.
 
Also likely based in the UK.
Certain. Big Ben, football, the shape of the region (like Great Britain without Wales).

I suppose. Guess everyone thought the last Fire starter would be Fighting but he ended up being Dark.

Definitely a big improvement, can't wait to play it on TV too, hopefully this time with my Pro Controller.

Honestly I'm waiting to see the final Evolution of each one to judge, none of them as a first form excites me, maybe only the Grass one.
 
I'll stick to the first 2/3 generations and their remasters I think. I just don't like the models of any new pokemon bar one or two. The graphics are very good though.
 
Starters look kinda lame but everything else is interesting. Hopefully they solve the 2 main problems of SM though, but the very easy leveling up and the too much cutscenes and hand holding.

Which are the remakes of Gen 1? I've only played Gen 1 and Silver/Gold (not entirely sure what gen they are)

Leaf Green and Fire Red from Gen 3.

Silver and Gold are Gen 2, which got their remakes in Gen 4 with Heart Gold and Soul Silver.
 
Ah thanks for the info. Is it worth buying a switch for the latest one?

Don't buy a console for one game, but switch in general is worth buying. All Nintendo good games now are on it.
