Most worthless 4 gen feature
I just wanted to know what you guys think the most worthless 4 gen feature was?. For me it has to be the contests for this game they really didn't cut it for me.
|
Contests were made impossible, IMO.
However, worst for me was the slower frame rate. If you look, when you're on a bike, the graphics are crappy anyway! I think they should have delayed and made it at least Platinum standard for D/P, and bumped Platinum up to Hg/Ss standard, then kept those the same. |
I liked the contest, but I'd say the worst definitely had to be the poffins, and making them was equally boring.
|
Making poffins was the absolute worst. I usually just bought them, because I had all kinds of money when I was playing. I love the contests, however.
|
The Vs. Seeker. I mean it's good for having a rematch, but it's just not worth it..
|
I hate the extremely low amount of BP you get in the battle tower. You go through all 7 trainers who are usually pretty hard and get like 3 BP and return.
|
I think it was the two-speed bike. I realize it's infinitely more convinent than having to go to Mauville whenever you need the other bike, but you never had to utilize it. There weren't the Acro Bike obstacles from R/S/E, and the Mach Bike setting was nowhere near as fast as Gen III. The only explanation the game gives for multiple speeds was taking sharp turns, but how many of those are there, really? And the bike is slower anyway, so you should be able to take corners easily.

Making poffins was so useless D:
And I failed at the contests too :P |
I played through the entire game without making or using a single poffin, or participating in a contest. However, I think the most worthless feature was the Accessories and dressing up your pokemon for a photo.
|
About the bike, I found i didn't use it all that much
|
The Contests -_____-.
Oh, and did I mention the outrageously slow Surfing? |
Defog, I found that utterly annoying, they just had to take out dive, and make Defog.

I can't stand playing through Pearl or Diamond because things take FOREVER to get through. After playing Platinum I wonder how I even put up with it in the first place. I kinda do contests once in a while, but I never got serious about them, and I find something relaxing about making Poffins. Oh I also get annoyed at the honey tree system too. I started paying attention to my Munchlax trees but eventually gave up :( |

And the dressing up thing was so dumb too :| |
well surfing was very slow in diamond and pearl, but they sped it up to a decent speed in platinum. But waterfall was still slow. And I like the honey trees just change the system so it's not as much of a hassle.
|
Lack of good pokemon, they make a game with so many training areas, yet they keep out the strongest pokemon, and add ****** ones

wwwhhaaat? that thing basically made my garchomp ! there's not unlimited trainers in DPPt, and I'm not one of those people who rushes into the Pokemon League with 5 lvl 40 pokemon and a legendary hoping to luck it out, and buys 100 full restores. Anyway, the Poketch Apps were the most useless, they should have had mini games on the poketch, it was boring and lame |

Also, in Diamond and Pearl, whoever programmed the battles needed to be shot. Chimchar used Scratch! *pause* Damage animation. *pause* HP drops. *pause* Piplup used Pound! *pause* Piplup's attack missed! *pause* What should Chimchar do? It makes Diamond/Pearl almost impossible to play for me, considering that I spend 95% of my time grinding. The first time I played Diamond, I gave up right after the Rival fight at the very beginning. :C |

Well.... Perhaps some suck but still ARCEUS THE STRONGEST POKEMON IN THE METAGAME!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Quote:
Yes you do. Deoxys-A is the strongest. inb4lookatbasestatsplz @ thanks. I didn't like gen 4 too much. I only use it to battle online. |
Contests were impossible.
|
Just one word: Poffins!!! :<
|
The bastard children of Tamagatchi known as Pokewalkers.
|
In terms of my play style:
Sinnoh: the Pokemon Radar machine is never used by me HGSS: Game Corner - prizes are cheaper and easier to obtain via trade/GBA I do still play Voltorb Flip on occasion. |
