Back in MY day we had 150 monsters, and that was ALL you needed! None o' these new-fangled 'cutey' monsters for children!

Look at dat thereTauros. A fine specimen of a monster. Look at the new-age Tauros. A CARTOON COW. Disgraceful! We had Pikachu and Raichu, but that wasn't CUTE enough for CHILDREN so they added Pichu, the Baby. Then they added those two Minun and Plushie creatures, which are completely obvious knockoffs! That's right, IVE SEEN YOUR NEW MONSTERS! BAH! Tailow? HootHoot? Starly? BAH! Give me Pidgey any day! Sentret? Zigzagoon? BIDOOF? You young whippersnappers can paint a Ratatta brown, but it's still a Ratatta!

The new popular starter is CHICKCHAR or something. Hooey! Back in my day, if you wanted a flaming monkey, you threw a Mankey into a bonfire!

I must say, it's nice to see the developers haven't gotten creative. A hippopotamus called "Hippopotas"? That's almost as clever as a pile of muck called "Muk"! Shows that the first generation was the BEST generation!

But everything they try to change doesn't work! Take evolution for example. Well, we DIDNT evolve them because evolution is a heathen scam! Everytime they tried to evolve, we would stop them because they were Intelligently Designed to be the way they were. But at least science was simpler in those days. Creatures evolved by leveling, stones, and trading! We didn't need to equip any new-fangled Kings Rock while leveling up at dusk while fighting a Goldeen at Cinnabar Island with a happiness level of 200 and spare Rare Candy in the inventory! That's ridiculous!

Also, there are no male or female monster of the same species! If they were, they would be a DIFFERENT SPECIES like Nidoran is. I notice that you haven't tried to reclassify them as the same species. That's because they are the ONLY monster with genders! All them other monsters are a-sexual. They don't breed! You kids today pass your monsters to some hag, and she has to genetically engineer you a cross-bred creature. WHY ELSE WOULD CREATURES ONLY MULTIPLY IN A DAYCARE CENTER?

Speaking of evolution, you young punks can stop evolving my monsters! Lickitung, Tangela and Rhydon were useless enough without you tainting them with stripes and spikes and scowls! If we wanted them to evolve, we would have done it the old fashioned way: by putting three of them together! I see what you did to Magneton! IF WE WANTED MAGNETON TO EVOLVE, WE WOULD JUST PUT THREE TOGETHER.

YOUR TURTWIG IS A BULBASAUR WITH A LEAF ON ITS HEAD!

Where was I? Oh yeah, your fancy colors. We didn't have color back in my day! We had black and puke green and we were grateful! People at the store would say, "Welcome to Cerulean City, the most vibrant city in Kanto. Would you like to see a third color?" and you would reply, "No, sir, I am satisfied with two" because THATS THE WAY GOD MADE IT.

And what's with these monsters that roam around the whole region? I don't care if you are a legendary, you stay in ONE house or cave. YOU DONT MOVE. I tells ya, the whole world is loosing control. Pretty soon these creatures will all be free. What kind of world has no pocket monster fighting action paralleling cockfighting? I am not sure, but it's a world I want none to do with!

Maybe this old fool is too naive for this new world. But with God as my witness, I will keep my level 100 Charmander, level 100 Magikarp, and level 100 Pikachu by my side forever. You kids wouldn't understand because you're too busy 'evolving' your monsters, watching their stat-ee-vees and teachin' them moves to balance against your friends. What a waste of time! I could beat the Elite Four everytime, back when that MEANT something. So you can go fight strangers over them thar internets if you will, but as for me and my monsters, we will retire from a world which no longer needs us.

I somewhat agree with you, but I have to disagree with you on most of it.

It all depends on what generation you grew up in, that's the problem. Since the series has been around for quite some time, more and more children are getting into it, while us senior followers stay loyal as well. One reason why I think that they keep creating horrible pokemon, is because they are running out of ideas, but this "new revamp" is supposed to be exactly that, a revamp of the series, so that the newer generation of fans can be happy with what they have, without being too overwhelmed by the rest of it. Even though they are going to incorperate the other 493 pokemon into the game, for someone who has never played Pokemon before, they are not going to know they are there until after they beat the Elite Four (as in previous generations). I am rambling on about nothing now and have lost my point, if people respond to this i will probably remember what I was getting at lol

If you didn't copy/paste this from somewhere, then you my friend are a winner.
Agreed, just for the fact that this guy can tell a mean story. I respect the effort, but stop complaining, change is good.

Edit: And since you seem to hate everything after 1st gen, why does your name contain Flygon and you are a member of an Aggron fan club...

Oh, lord. I remember this. I was expecting something more serious then this, but I got a surprise from this. The third time, and it's still hella funny.

Personally, I like the new gen, and I'm really only saying this because everyone else seems to.

I know, right?

I think I've heard this one before though. The exact words. By the exact same person. Stolen from somewhere, no doubt, but I think it was a year ago? Maybe a little more. Thanks for the lulz, though, Darkly.

I think your rant was idiotic and lame. All I read was 'DURP HERP I'M AN IDIOT' The new pokemon are fine, the old pokemon are fine, the new evolutions are fine (well some of them) if they want pokemon to continute being popular then theyr'e going to come up with new ideas, which they are and pokemon is as popular as ever.

So stop being stupid and hating on everything new and exciting.

Jeez. You sure love to say, and I quote, "BAH!"

Anyway, here is my point of view. The first 151 were original, unique, filled with epicness. No show had attempted to do what Pokemon was attempting to do! The second generation was greatly appreciated by the general Pokemon-fan populous. Then, the third generation came. People were excited, but not the way they should be. So people put up with the 300 or so Pokemon. Then gen 4. People started to get upset. I mean, 400 somewhat Pokemon? Then Gen 5. There WILL be a riot in Japan I am telling you! They take anime very seriously.

He is entitled to his opinion, whether you like it or not. The rant did make some valid points in SOME cases. But overall, a rant is filled with emotion which gets in the way of logical thinking. If he did do research, the viewer-ship and popularity skyrocketed during the second generation. But when the third came by, the loyalty started to gradually drop. I guess people are waiting for the next good decision by the Nintendo Company.

I can't tell if it's serious or satire... o.O



I don't calculate stat values, I don't breed my way to perfection, and I don't care about natures. I catch my Pokemon the way they are, and treat them like individuals instead of brainless drones.

Ok we all know the orginal pokemon was the best. I don't understand how everyone can complain about the new games that much. They're not all that different. and alot of the changes are good. I will agree however GEN. I was the best.

Wow. I guess this is why they say illogical people are here.

First, you didn't like the 5th gen? Awesome. Not that I care, but first you should stop mentioning how the first gen was better ah omg omg omg blablablablabla. Second, when you post you still didn't take many things I'd rather not mention into account.
Third, you sound like one of the old guys of today mumbling about how it was good back in the day. You can still play the old games, right? You didn't like the 5th/4th/3/rd/2nd gen? Continue staying old and play the old ones, while we have better ones on our hands.

If you trolled, you failed hard. This wasn't funny and if you are going to draw attention by this post than hurray, but know that you still have a long way in trolling.

Wow that was a palm-face. But I do understand why he would be worried about the future of the saga. I wouldn't want Pokemon to die out like Yo-Gi-Oh did.

Second, no one should ever say the new ones are better. You completely make youself look like an idiot by saying that. You are telling him, essentially, to get out of the past. Where as you are taking your side with the newer Generations. Someone call the Hypocrisy Police!

And lastly, you completely demolished your reputation by saying these words: "Wow. I guess this is why they say illogical people are here." How could you say that? You not only bash the ONLY illogical one here, but you bash the ones who are making complete and utter sense. Get out of here. I don't care how long you have been here, how many posts you have made, or how full of yourself you are.

P.S: If you didn't mean to insult the whole forum, I recommend you be specific at making your absolute accusations.

If you haven't realised, this isn't serious. It's not trying to make fun of people that do that, unlike my thread. This is just here to annoy people like myself and Kanade, and then have people like yourself respond in the same annoyance. In other words, this young Darkly here is a "troll". There's a reason it's the third time he's posted this.

I am thinking it is satire. I'm not entirely sure, but who in their right mind would complain about all other generations other than generation 1 and yet have the username with a generation 3 Pokemon?

EDIT: Yeah it is a troll. But on point, I happen to like the new Pokemon. I favor complexity and bad***ness to cuteness 90% of the time.
