5th Gen How will you feel if Gen V sucks?

You know what I hate? People need to stop complaining about pokemon. Really, you try creating 500 pokemon and see how original they are by the end. And I doubt anyone who says they'll quit playing pokemon if gen 5 is not great will, because if you had that little faith in pokemon, why would you even have an account on this site? The truth is, just go play a digimon game or that photo monsters game forn the DS and compare it to DPPt. Then tell me which is better. Because whether pokemon is getting worse or not, it's still a great game compared to other games on the DS.

Well, if Gen V sucks, nobody's going to force us to play it, so I'll just play my own Gen IV rom hacks :D.

I never asked them to make 500 >_> They were the ones that did that. I doubt highly I could come up with 500 original ideas, which is why I won't expect them to make another 100 that really get my interest.

Besides, the Pokemon franchise is doomed to succeed, no matter what they do. They'll probably only slow down when there are so many that an extra 100 doesn't even phaze the audience anymore. So, if by "sucking," you mean "failing to make money," then that's not going to happen.

If Gen V sucked, i would go to my room after beating the game.
I would then proceed to cry until my eyes "deflated" from dehydration...

LOLWUT

Honestly? Nothing would change for me.
I still enjoy my pokemon centric life with Sinnoh and below, and not having an amazing game will not phase me at all. I'm perfectly happy now, nothing can "ruin" it for me.

I don't get why people hated D/P/Pt or R/S/E.

I liked them. The only thing I disliked about D/P/Pt was that it seemed to be a recycled story with more childish plot. But overall it was pretty damn cool.

Maybe because they were alot different than R/B/Y and G/S/C. The regions was more techish etc. the pokemon designs had more detail, and gameplay was a bit different. Or they are just overruled by nostalgia. lol :)

I think B/W will be great. I see some enhacements so far. XD

R/S/E proved some pokemon dont need to evolve inorder to kick ass so i loved that region, so those remakes couldnt bomb.

but after the trainwreck,& massive disappointment of gen4
i doubt gen5 could be any worse.
i dont think a nuclear bomb goin off over my head while im on the toilet could be worse then gen4 :P

but all jokes aside, gen4 was their worst idea ever, & im hopin i can forget gen4 with gen5
i want pokemon this time.
not: digimon wannabes, evolution **** ups, & legendaries flowin from a fountain.

It Cannot be any worse than Sinno.

I don't think any Gen so far has sucked and I don't expect the 5th Gen to either, but, if it does, I won't be too worried. There are still plenty of other great games to play in the Pokemon franchise. :)

^ thank you god those were bad
WORST POKEMON GAMES EVER (no including the spin off games, duh)

Go to the nintendo Company workplace and grifitti on the wall you suck ! :P

I would stare. Like wow, I just waste SO much time, like now, waiting on this damn game and it ended up being rubbish, it good I don't swear, online or real life, or even * it 0_9 Seriously, I'll be mad/pitiful for myself. I just wasted my time!

I don't understand why a lot of people would give up Gen V if it happened to suck. Sure, it'd be quite disappointing if it didn't have the features that we'd hope for it to have, but why should that judge if we should ever play pokemon again or something? It's better to play pokemon as it is(Pokemon, of course) instead of something that we want it to be, that way it'd be a lot more funner, dontcha think?

You make a good point. Playing pokemon how it already is would still be fun, and yeah setting standards too high will only set us up for disappointment when the game do come out.

It would be disappointing, but I would still play it. I doubt it could completely suck anyway, I'm sure a lot of it would still be enjoyable.

Probably do what I did with Gen IV: Complain about them, actually buy Platinum, complain some more, then grow to love all despite the flaws. EXCEPT BIDOOF.

I think it probably will so I wouldn't be surprised... But I'd still be really disappointed =(

Simple. I wouldn't bother wasting money on it. When DP came out, it was awful, so I didn't buy it. Why on earth would I want to play a game I didn't enjoy? I just went back to playing Emerald until HGSS came out. If BW has the same storyline as the previous four gens and Pokemon as bad as Gen 4, I will go back to playing HGSS until the Emerald remake comes out.

Maybe if less people bought it just because it was a Pokemon game, Game Freak might care enough to produce a game that truly takes Pokemon to the next level.
