how Gen 3 should have been handeld in the first place. Not enough really changes but gen 3 had a solid enough foundation.

Massive improvement to gen 1. I basically forget about the originals now.

Improvement in almost every area. Sure the distortion world ended up just being a slow cinematic experience but its nothing like Pokémon has ever done before or since.

i have a bit more love for this cause i speedran it for a while. Really well paced game and I love that its all new pokemon until you beat the elite 4, it gives Unova a vibe that is uniquely its own.

I loved this when it came out but time hasnt been to fond of the gen 4 remakes. Level curve is still super botched throughout which makes getting through it a total slog.

qol is great. Wild area was a neat additon. Overall a bit easy but the game massively extended its shelf life for me with the raids. Wish they were faster though.

See below. Above previous cause Its grown on me a bit more. The amount of gift pokemon you get always annoyed me.

Gen 1 is just broken and buggy. Peeling back the layers and going back to an era of 0 qol is really hard to stomach.

see below. Above the previous cause you can use all of the starters without trading. However cause of this, games massively easier and your team is built for you.

Games fine. Tutorial is so long it puts me to goddamn sleep.

Gen 6 is just aggressively easy. I've come around on it a bit recently after playing it more, especially on the Gen 3 remakes. They are fine. Unoffensive. Qol over gen 3 helps.

I honestly like this game I just really do not have the nostalgic attachment most people had to it. This is where I fell off pokemon as a kid until gen 4 sucked me back in fairly late on into the generation.

fine but aggressively slow. Elite 4 sucks but champion is one of the best in the whole series.

Fine. Its story is annoying but its gameplay and gyms are massive improvements over part 1.

zero qol now with a super botched level curve. Amazed still they were able to fit as much as they did into this game. At least its not as buggy as gen 1 is.

Nintendo had all the potential in the world here and just soiled it with this unfinished pile. the qol and overworld are neat, too bad the game runs like shit.

bland remake doesn't even begin to describe this. It literally just does everything Gen 4 did with a new coat of paint. I really wished for improvements but I shouldn't be super surprised that we didn't get them.

Ultra Necrozma is miserable in a game thats paced pretty well otherwise. Doesn't feel different enough from the first set of gen 7 games. I'll never play this unrandomized again cause of that boss fight.

Yeah the expansion pass to gen 8 was neat. I wish the Iron Islands was a bit more fleshed out but both parts gave a massively better wild area to mess around in in comparison to the base game.

the gen 9 DLC was neat but was short and does little to improve what was already there.
