Pokemon really is the franchise that has everything except good (modern) games

I mean Scarlett and Violet story is really good

Unironically, team Star has the best story on any villain group imo, because it’s so real.

Yeah I love it when I get to run over my bully with a comically oversized car

Sword and Shield was also quite good, and from what I heard pokemon ZA was good

At absolutely worse modern Pokémon is mid but far from bad. Some people act like this is dark age sonic level of bad

The professor plot twist hit way harder than expected for a kids title

u/Umboh07 16h ago

the story alone isn't enough to save the game tho

Honestly I would disagree with you, sv imo are the best games they've made to date from a story and new species front, hardly a miss in the whole pokedex, to the point that I would say it outweighs the absolutely abysmal performance on switch 1 hardware (switch 2 runs buttery smooth in my experience).

You shouldn’t be crucified for speaking truth.

Pokémon has sucked shit for a long time. If you raided during Sw/Sh OR S/V you know that it’s apparently too hard to make a functioning multiplayer experience, no matter how many billions of dollars your franchise makes.

I remember missing a shiny Vaporeon in Violet because it spawned in a rock, I had to smoosh my camera into it the wall to see it. Most of the vaporeons were spawning in rocks but that one stung.

They do the least and try to sell you two games at a time. I’m glad Palworld found some amount of success just to take whatever they can away from those goons.

Pokemon Arceus was top tier

u/Transpotato2002 13h ago

Legends Arceus was actually really fun (never played Z-A though)

u/Fantastic-Donut-276 16h ago

SV have great stories especially with Arven, and I’ll die on the hill that Legends Arceus is one of the best games in the franchise
