    The worst part of gen 4 is Mindy there's nothing worse than her
  • @eaglefan514
    Worst feature of gen 3 is that you can't transfer Pokemon up from gens 1-2 to it, keeping you from getting shinies/legendaries/starters you've had for years into newer games
  • bro chose not breaking in houses over the performace of sv and the absence of level scaling in an open world pokemon game
  • @Morgil27
    I really like that Gen 5 was only new Pokémon until the post game. My only real issue is that some of the new Pokémon are just rip-offs of Gen 1 Pokémon, like Timbur>Machop and Raggenrolla>Geodude.
  • @chipsneak1348
    Totally agree with final Galar starters. A gorilla carrying around a drum when gorillas literally beat their chests like drums… it’d be like if Pidgeot use a hang-glider
  • The worst part of gen 7 is the fact that the cutscenes took forever
  • @giboit.
    I think the designs of the final evolutions of the Galar starters are awesome. Rillaboom, Cinderace and Inteleon are really cool.
  • There is a building you can enter in scarlet and violet that you missed. You can actually enter nemona's house. I only noticed this recently. Sadly not much to it but does give her some more context for her home life.
  • The gym challenges were the worst thing in Gen 9. Especially the ESP training from the psychic gym
  • @MegaMilesprower
    Gonna be honest, the loss of being able to enter buildings is only surpassed by the horrible raids in my opinion. In swsh I initially didn't like that they introduced raids, but at least they were turn based and they eventually grew on me. Scarvio's raids killed my enjoyment far more than anything else in gen 9 thus far, because they changed it from turn based to time based. Add onto that the enemy pokemon seems to get multiple turns before you do, the fact that occasionally glitches seem to make your inputs freeze for no reason, that offline NPCs will not attack until you do, and that later raids seem to require specific pokemon with certain stats and moves.
  • @Poke-ladd
    I think it was gen 5 or 6 they changed Faint attack to Feint attack or something but I think it was also removed later
  • @vizzzyy190
    genuinely felt the same about us/um changing lusamine's story for the worst. its honestly done best in masters ex, because every event with lusamine and her kids show her trying to work to be better for them. the forgiveness feels earned edit: also agree on the not being able to go indoors in sv
  • @indy63_24
    Gen 9s worst feature has got to be the undercooked graphics. It's been out for a while now and it still looks terrible. The textures look bland and take far to long to load in, and there is still a riddle of bugs
  • @BlastHeart96
    I agree with all of your points about Gen 7 with caveats. While I agree that the best part of Gen 7 is introducing Regional Variants as a new pillar of a mechanic for the series going forward, I’d also argue for its story, lore, and characters being up there. Sure, people that don’t enjoy story in their games will dislike the abundance of cutscenes, which is fair, but as someone that does, I thoroughly enjoyed how much personality it added to the games. Alola also has some of the most dense, fleshed out lore and characters out of any of the other generations in my opinion. It’s one of the only regions whose story was so good that it’s gotten a tear out of me (Gen 9 now too). Some of the only negatives with the games is the long tutorial process on subsequent play throughs and how incomplete some of the trials felt towards the end, especially on Poni Island. Then there’s one of the single most common criticisms of the game being the best parts from both games should’ve been merged into a singular game. Leave all of the story, the same from the originals, but at in tidbits of the ultra recon squad like in USUM, keep Lusamine’s character from the originals, redeem her in the post game after her illness/coma after bejng separated from Nihilego, keep Kukui as the first champion and save serious Hau for a post game rematch/story beat, Retain all of the post game content from USUM like ultra wormholes and team rainbow rocket as well as flesh out the Ultra Megalopolis area and storyline to make it more substantial. Gen 7 is genuinely my favorite generation and it’s far from perfect without these changes, but it does get close in my opinion. It’s a great melting of both tribal and sci-fi themes.

    They really missed out on the chance to bring back the 2 region system from gen 2 in scarlet and violet. The DLC should've been a trip to what would realistically be neighboring Kalos.
  • @j_the_kid
    I've never been so early, hope you're doing good Hoops! ❤
  • AINT NO WAY HE SAID GEN 8 STARTERS WERE THE WORST STARTERS WHAT Gen 5 starters left the chat Tbh gen 5 starter r TRASH
