An objective ranking of the design of third-evolution fire starters:

1. Charizard
2. Typhlosion
3. Emboar
4. Cinderace
5. Infernape
6. Delphox
7. Incineroar
8. Blaziken

I want to disagree but I cannot, Fire/Fighting hosed that line hard, even the non fire/Fightings look like Fire/Fightings

Charizard is dope but way overplayed and the least of the Kanto starters. Typholion is dope, but Feraligatr is doper. All the other ones can get hosed, especially SwSh's what the gently caress is that garbage

I count megas as different pokemon, but yes they could rectify this and give me a pure fire charizard mega

You'll get a fire Fighting and you'll drat well better like it. A jacked darker red Charizard with boxing gloves for some loving reason.

gently caress Mega's if you people wanted to buff less used pokemon maybe don't make half of them starters and poo poo that was already good, and make the designs not total garbage

Does anyone remember Shiny Gold? I always felt bad about how that went down, dude was doing such a good job and the remakes just killed the project. I love HG but I think Shiny gold had a lot of heart and I would've loved to see it seen through to the end

Black/White 2 were the pinnacle of the series and I'm sad we'll never get the PWT ever again.

It's what got me back into the series after how much I disliked Pearl and Diamond, I had such high hopes after seeing how great Black 2 was. So much content. And then gamefreak realized people will buy anything with the Pokemon name slapped on it and went full mediocre.

Anybody defending gamefreak and the pokemon company after ultra sun and moon, let's go, and swsh is totally blinded by their love of the franchise. The games are obviously getting worse, cutting features and mons from previous gens, and have features and graphics totally out of step with the times.

That might be okay if it was a smaller or an indie developer but this is the developers of the most popular and monetizable franchise of all time. We can and should be expecting better from them.

Despite the Phys/Special split the Gen 4 games were a massive step done from Ruby and Sapphire, and an absolute plunge from Emerald.

Slow rear end gameplay, Ugly graphics, an incredibly annoying region to navigate, horrible and too many legends, The stupid rear end honey tree system, lame gyms, Awful Dex, and it's the gen that had the most useless and ugly Prevos added.

They should just make 1 good pokemon game with a good setting and good writing again and a detailed world that the plot actually uses and maybe a combat gimmick that isn't dogshit.

Bring back locations that are bigger than 1 screen.
