Worst Pokemon Game Ever
 
The worst pokemon game, in my opinion, is Pokemon Colosseum. The story line was boring and double battling sucked. I like most pokemon games but not this one.

reniersnyder August 15th, 2013 12:30 PM

I strongly disagree that Pokemon Colosseum was the worst. The Newer game in the Unova and Sinnoh storyline was the worst actually. it is easier to beat them then Pokemon Colosseum. The harder the game is to beat the better the storyline is. It took me a day to beat both the Sinnoh and Unova games. A day for each game. Not a whole day for both. And it took me a year to beat Colosseum.

The newest Mystery Dungeon game, in my opinion, is the worst I've played. The story is really bland to me, and most of the old MD mechanics are dumbed down in the wake of "better" graphics. I was unbelievably disappointed in this game.

I rest my case...

In my opinion, Pokemon Channel is the worst, because I don't play Pokemon to watch anime. I still enjoy it, but on a lesser scale than other games.

SkyRyder August 15th, 2013 1:43 PM

Out of all the ones I've ever played, I think Pokemon Trozei and Pokemon Dash were the least enjoyable to me. I don't outright hate them, since they did have a few redeeming qualities. However, even after beating them, hardly anything from 'em peaked my interest. There might be worse ones out there, but I haven't played every single Pokemon game as far as spin-offs go. I don't think any of the main series games are bad enough to be the "worst", since those games are several leagues higher than the ones I've listed, IMO.

Amore August 15th, 2013 5:22 PM

Out of all the games I've played, Black has been the only one that's ever really got tedious - post-game sucks so bad. But it's not a bad game. The worst game (Although not the least enjoyable) is definitely Diamond. I know it was the first DS main series game, but I'm sure if they put a little more time in they could've had it at least up to Platinum standard. And the slow surfing in particular just seems like a stupid issue, they fixed it pretty easily in Pt, why not just never have the issue?
Doesn't stop me playing it, but it's definitely the worst game.


Haha, forgot Pokémon Battle Revolution. PBR has no plotline, although it never really pretended to be more than just an excuse to see your pokémon in 3D on the TV. And whilst it was good for that, I still had no desire to keep the game - eventually it just got tedious, although I did get an Electivire out of it :).

Sirfetch’d August 15th, 2013 5:26 PM

Pokemon Battle Revolution hands down. Such a disappointment with no story and really nothing to do in general. I originally bought it expecting it to be a fun game, but nope!

moon August 16th, 2013 2:32 AM

I'm actually going to disregard all spin-offs and just count the main series games here, if that's okay. I think FR/LG are quite hideous. Sure, it was fun to return to Kanto, but why did they not bring back day/night and why did they let the music be so bad compared to the wonderful tunes of Hoenn? Plus, they could have done so much more to spice up Kanto's boring routes from their gen I/II versions and overall just... Not as great as it could have been.

I haven't played enough spin-offs to have a say in that, so ;) And the ones I did play, PMD and PMD2, were pretty great even though they had their repetitious and tedious moments.

Hiatus August 16th, 2013 4:34 AM

For me, it has to be Pokémon Black 2/White 2. Their storylines were a lot similar to their prequels, they use the same starters (would've been better if they offered us different Pokémon than just Snivy, Tepig, or Oshawott, in my opinion), and most of the locations remained the same. I couldn't wait to get my hands on this game, but when I finally did, I was pretty disappointed. I just didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. D:

Aeroblast August 16th, 2013 5:03 AM

Counting only the main series, Diamond and Pearl have to be the worst in my opinion, for the sole reason of extremely slow pace all around, text speed, surfing, etc. Glaring lack of fire types just adds to the problem. Thankfully the latter was resolved along with surfing speed in Platinum.

Starlight Sprite August 16th, 2013 5:25 AM

Pokemo. Battle Revolution was a big letdown for me. It wasn't terrible, but I was expecting a game like Colossuem or XD. Instead we got something really silly, and I didn't enjoy any of the quirky battle styles. This is more personal bias than a justified reason, but I found this game of be very dissapointing.

Fernando Torres August 16th, 2013 5:54 AM

I really don't hate any of them.

Riv August 16th, 2013 6:28 AM

I'd say. Hmm. Hey you, Pikachu. That thing never listened to a word I said.

Cerberus87 August 16th, 2013 6:32 AM

Stadium had no story and was a kickass game. Story isn't an excuse to bash PBR.

I'm going to get a lot of flack here but I'll say the original Red and Blue were the worst. Tons of glitches, bugged type chart with broken types, and really poor AI. It was cool back then, but it has aged horribly. FRLG weren't great remakes but they exceed the originals in every way.

skyluigi2 August 16th, 2013 7:31 AM

I'll have to say Black/White. After Platinum, HeartGold/SoulSilver, B/W just felt like such a let down. It didn't have the same impact as Diamond/Pearl did. To this day, I still say that is why we ended up with Black2/White2 instead of 'Grey'.

Kikaito plush August 16th, 2013 10:20 AM

I would say Pokemon Channel is the worst one I have played.
All you do in it is watch an Pikachu watch TV.

TreeKangaroo August 16th, 2013 12:11 PM

Pokemon mystery dungeon gates to infinity.

That quagsire is really annoying and there is so much dialogue in the beginning so I had to quit playing. Letdown from the previous PMD games.

pokemasta92 August 17th, 2013 11:34 AM

Definitely the original Pokémon Stadium only released in Japan. It only had 42 Pokémon, lacked features, and was too difficult.

Altair August 17th, 2013 1:38 PM

I've only played the main series games (besides rumble) and I have to say that B/W was the least enjoyable to play. I enjoy all Pokemon games but this one compared with the others was just so boring? I guess, I'm not saying B/W is bad through...
I'm playing Black 2 now and it's much more fun, I just hope it's post game is going to be great unlike B/W...

It is. Don't worry, there's a LOT of stuff to do in the post-game (battling Gym Leaders from other regions in the PWT, getting Black Kyurem, the Black Tower, lots of legendary Pokémon like in HGSS, the list goes on and on). That's one of my favorite things about it.

For that matter, same deal here-while I do enjoy all the main series games, as I may have said in my intro thread, the original Black and White are arguably my least favorite of the DS era games (it's debatable between them and DP, if it weren't for how freaking slow everything is in DP, BW would definitely be it). But my least favorite main series game is GSC, as most of the new Johto Pokémon didn't really stand out to me at the time, and neither did a lot of the big battles.

But my least favorite Pokémon game overall? Probably Trozei. I didn't really understand it at all.

Foxrally August 17th, 2013 2:01 PM

Pokemon Conquest. I don't get it, I don't understand it, I hate it.

Length doesn't really matter for games...same with the better the storyline, the harder it is.

franko94 August 17th, 2013 3:00 PM

I say the worst game was Gates to Infinity. It was the only game in the series (spinoff or main series) that I could not get into.

Sydian August 17th, 2013 3:05 PM

Damn, some of y'all in here acting like your opinion is fact. I can guarantee you it's not. Neither is mine.

My least favorite games are Diamond and Pearl. Sinnoh is my least favorite region, mainly because it takes too many HMs at once to really get around, and if you're like me, you don't like teaching your main party members these crappy HMs (and even the old HMs made into TMs, like Flash). So that was annoying. And then the speed of the game was rather slow, which is my main problem with the game. It's just hard to play and focus and get stuff done when it's going so slowly. I love Platinum, though. Sinnoh's redeemer tbqh.
