"But you guys seem to like it when I focus on the bad..."
There it is: the problem with the internet

[misterantonis]

Legends Arceus is the only (and I mean ONLY) Pokémon game that has allowed me to complete the Pokedex without getting another game/console or having to find someone to trade. That in itself is enough reason to make it the best Pokémon game to date.

That and the fact that I'd rather do 10 backflips each day for 30 days to evolve a pokemon than having to trade.

Another thing about Gen 2 is that only half of the Johto gym leaders have Johto pokemon

I know its a meme, but the worst thing about Emerald IS too much water. Stephen got replaced by Wallace, Juan now runs the 8th gym, and you have Archie and Team Aqua to fight. So 3 of the big end game battles are against water specialists.

No, the worst part of Pokemon: Let's Go is the fact that you're restricted to *a single joy-con.* (And the Pokeball, but _nobody_ can afford that anymore.) No pro controller, no dual joy-con grip. You only get one. In tv mode. In handheld mode, you get to use the entire controller _and_ can actually aim by tilting the system. Why they didn't add an update or option to play like that with the pro controller, I'll never know. But that annoyance makes me not want to play as much. And Arceus help you if your joy-con starts drifting...

My biggest issue with emerald is changing the champion for no apparent reason. Steven is so much better as a champion than wallace

[metalk]

'The core is there but the shell is not' is a surprisingly common trait for big games now a days

[nullpoint]

The issue of Dexit isn't "not being able to catch every pokemon", that happened all the way back in RSE.
It's that pokemon were outright removed from the underlying code and thus literally do not and can not exist in the game without modding. It also is the reason Pokemon Hostage (Home) and Pokemon Ransom (Bank) are such a big problem.

[brendancurry]

I was so confused why people said Sun and Moon has too many cutscenes then realized they meant dialogue and not the cinematic ones

[ESparendro]

Talking bad things about Diamond and Pearl and not mentioning the literal worst Pokédex in any Pokémon game? Bold

[lucideirune]

The reason why I disliked BW back then is bc that is when they started shiny locking legendaries. These days, they shiny lock all legendaries, starters, mythicals, and gift Pokemon. They are turning a once free shiny hunt into a loot box shiny hunt in Pokemon Go.

I think my biggest problem with X and Y is how unfinished it feels
like the world just feels so small,
there's all these little things scattered around the map that feel like they're supposed to lead to something bigger (the mysterious ghost girl, the abandoned hotel, zygarde, the power plant door, the event mythicals, the 'chamber of emptiness' location which is nothing but a cave with a mega stone in it)
and it's just not there
there's hints and teases, but not much beyond the base story, and the post game is almost non-existent aside from the looker storyline and the extra town

[edsheeran]

The only issue platinum has is the fact that murkrow and misdreavus are unavailable

[SanderEvers]

However UltraSun & UltraMoon did add some cool minigames, and was very much faster to get going than Sun&Moon.

[lunayoshi]

I think Gen 7's biggest problem was the frickin' online... everything. That carnival looking thing that I forgot the name of. I lost track of how many times I tried to connect to a friend to trade or battle, with EVERYTHING setup right (game up to date, internet connection detected, etc.) and it just... wouldn't work. Period. Meanwhile, I'd pop in the aging Y or OmegaRuby and have no problems whatsoever. ...At least until they stopped paying attention to hacking and the whole Trade system got janky.

[aridimaria]

Worse gen 4 (pearl/diamond) problem. 2 fire type lines despite a fire elite 4 member

[astonvillawaterbottle]

My main problem with johto games is that there are basically no wild Pokemon before the league over level 30

[NexusVFD]

The worst thing about Emerald is that it introduces so many mechanics in the Battle Frontier that works on background info that YOU the player have NO CLUE about and then proceeds to be tongue and cheek about explaining it to you in game. On top of that it goes out of it way to be outright tedious in the most unfun ways.

[DryBones]

The worst thing for BW2 is the key system's requirement, you need TWO copies of B2 to start a game with Challenge mode, and that is terrible. If they introduced the key system, but removed that requirement, BW2 would be flawless games.

[TheBirdyFantana]

Honestly the worst thing about Gen 1 is probably the sprites. In terms of the technicals and glitches, it’s rough but it still works, but some of those old sprites are AWFUL.
