5th Gen Liking all new everything?

[ShinyFufu]

Dude! Give it a rest if you dont like anything. then dont buy the game. We don't wanna hear you complaining on every single thread. you got your word out dude. Leettt.. me guess you hate Gen 5. WOW. How did i guess that. that is simply incredible.

Agreed. No one's forcing you to buy these games.

Dont be hating dude, I dont like them so what. No need to go off on me with that ridiculous green text.

Gen 3 all over again. I do not want to be severely restricted and told "You can't use those 493 Pokemon to beat the game, here use these 150." I want a combination of old and new to beat the game with, and not have to wait until afterwards, when I don't even need to use them. Seriously, postgame stuff is just filler. If I'm going to "use" a Pokemon, I want it as part of my team that I raise throughout my journey to beat the League. Gen 3 severely limited your Pokemon and is ridiculed even today for it (though it also had a horrendous region), and considering about 80% of the Gen 5 designs are absolutely vomit-inducing, I'd want the option of catching some old favorites to raise in Isshu as well.

There are about 50 other things they could do to revitalize and "freshen up" the series...this is not one of them.

If you don't like it, then why are you using up time visiting a forum about it to whine about it? If you dislike it, it seems rather... dumb to be taking the time to post about it.

Why is it that when Hoenn removed tons old favorites and tried to revolutionize the franchise it was ridiculed, but when Isshu does it it's praised?

I hope this isn't true. It'd be more realistic if they had at least a few Pokemon in common.

Because Hoenn was pretty awesome regardless of all the flak it got. I think people are appreciating Gen 3 more nowadays. I bet they'll keep some older Pokemon in, although it would be nice, imo, to see an all-new regional Dex.

Also, Midnight Bear has it right. If you dislike it anyway, why are you bothering to post about it? You can have your opinion, but keep it down with the abrasiveness, por favor. Other people happen to be excited about this stuff.

Do you mind telling me what all this hype is about? I dont know what everyones so excited about.

Fine no one listen to me.

 

[OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire]

I am seriously liking everything ;)
Yeah why is Isshu being praised while people ridiculed Hoenn for having so little old pokemon...

This.

I think Generation 5 will be awesome. I absolutely LOVED the Hoenn region, and I don't care what anybody says about Isshu. :D

It's a bold move, I'll give them that. I'm happy to see Game Freak has the balls to mix things up again, to me Gen 4 felt to similar to everything else. The fact that they have balls to make changes is what im more interested about.

My gripe though is the national dex usually doesn't come into play until after the region champion is defeated. It seems redundant to collect 493 pokemon that only serve to fill in the dex. If they make enough content post - region champion like traveling to another region (old or new) and have another main quest to follow, then it'll be all worth it.

So whether or not it's a good decision really rests with how much content we get post- pokemon league. Otherwise I'm going to have to agree with haters and call "filler".

They are doing it because they want to refresh the series.

 

[Beyerful]

My wish came true :) I always wanted each region to have purely their region pokemon and all the national ones after you get the national dex. I just want to jump into a pool of new pokemon and not find the same ones I have already used. Like going into your favorite store and they have all this awesome new merchandise :)

I think it is a great move. As long as around 95% of the other 493 pokemon are avaliable after the national dex :)

"Because the new Pokemon suck anyway so getting rid of them is good!"

We aren't sure how many old mon are in the Isshu dex actually :)...

 

[MartinJF]

Well, I'm very sure we will Get a new pre-evo and new evo's, so at least some pkmn have to be in the isshu dex, no?

 

[o0PinkSquid0o]

Hmm I like this idea ONLY if we get the national dex somewhere in the middle of the game instead of right at the end. Just so we can choose later if we wanna train up some other pokemon without it being so late in the game that there aren't any trainers left to battle and train new(old) pokemon.

That way we get to try out all the new pokemon at the start but still get the option of playing through some of the new story line with some old favs.

 

[vibratingcat]

its an ok idea i guess. what bothers me is that there wont be any new evolutions or prevolutions until you finish the game. other than that, its cool. this might also mean we get a large number of new pokemon, maybe 150.

does this also mean that the pokeshifter wont appear until after you finish the game?

Did you actually read what I said? I know damn well why they are doing it.

 

[Sammuthegreat]

I don't like this idea much at all really. The whole point of having that many Pokemon is having a massive choice of which to use; I'd rather they just opened up the full Dex from the start instead of having this Isshu/National Dex nonsense.

What this means is that we'll be stuck with the same old situation where each route only has 3 or 4 wild Pokemon species on it. If all Pokemon were available from the start there'd be so much more variety in teams; as it is everyone has the same team for the first Gym.

 

[knook]

This is stupid, I dont want to use these crappy pokemon,

Of which we only have twenty-odd confirmed out of over a hundred... Yeah, not jumping the gun at all there

 

[MistahDude]

Because of the whole series rebirth theory I would say 151, which is counting Victini. The actual last pokemon could be number 150.

Part of Pokemon is catching them all. Many people actually like to collect the other 493 pokemon even if it isn't required and even if the award for doing it is lame.

Did you actually read what I said? I know damn well why they are doing it.

Yes I did read what you said and there was nothing about the rebirth of the series.
