I've been reading through a couple threads and noticed a lot of hate for Kanto. How can you guys even think the new Gens are better than this one? No, it's not nostalgia,
the new Pokemon are just horrible. They have too much detail and
don't even look like Pokemon anymore. More like machines. I thought Pokemon were living creatures, animals. That's why I liked it so much, but the new ones are freakin' robots! I know, I know,
HERP DERP DIGLETT HERP DERP VOLTORB, but those ones were simple. Simple designs were so much better, the new Pokemon look more like transformers than Pokemon ; eg. Rhyperior, Metagross, and the Gen 4 and 5 legendaries. Mewtwo was so awesome, it actually looked like a living creature. Wtf is a Dialga? Come on. Kanto and Johto ftw.

You're the one with possibly the worst evolution ever created as an avatar... LOL
Infernape is flat out a rip off of Charizard and Blazekin. Fire on it's ass and fire/fighting type? Come on. And it's
Pokemon like "Bronzong" I'm talking about when I say they don't even look like Pokemon anymore. It's a floating piece of stone with designs on it?
Does it even have a gender? I thought Pokemon were like animals... Rotom is a floating lightbulb. Again, I don't consider that a Pokemon... I guess Drapion looks alright, actually looks like a living creature. Also, some of us would prefer regular cities over strange ones like the one with the treehouses in Hoenn and the island floating on Corsola (I didn't really play through Emerald that well...).
I decided to edit my post and be more specific. I'm not saying that Mr. Mime and Jynx are bad pokemons. They are actually really good ones. But nothing can ever convince me that that they don't look like crap. Mr. Mime looks like a rejected disney charakter while Jynx just looks like...ugh.
I also think that Magnemite and Dugtrio are two of the laziest looking evolutions ever. Yet people completely ignore these when saying that the newer ones look like crap.
Sorry for my little rant there. I can't help it sometimes :(
Tangrowth is just fine. I like him partly because unlike other Gen 4 evolutions like Rhyperior or Togekiss it dosen't look completely overblown. It's just a larger Tangela with arms. A simple evolution you might say? Then again,
you praised the first gen pokemons for being simple. Why can't i praise some gen 4 pokemons for the same reason?
Oh, and let me repeat myself from earlier. Judging pokemons by their looks alone is stupid. Take a look at Tangrowths stats for example. He's a BEAST! And even though i said that Rhyperior and Togekiss looks overblown dosen't it make them bad either.
The Pokémon community is infected with the thought that everyone who doesn't like the newer games is a nostalgia freak and gets stamped as such. The reality itself is that one truly doesn't like the games just as with other game series and not for nostalgia.
In a community one has to listen, not only write what one thinks. Even though this is a community for something as petty as Pokémon, one still has to act in a certain way and contribute and grow by listening to other members.
And this isn't done in this community where people seem to not understand each other's views because of lack of maturing.
And that's why threads like these reoccur over and over again.
You act like this and get angry because you think people dislike a game just for the designs. If you "new game likers" and the "old game likers" would think maturely you'd understand each other and see that you simply like something because you like the content. Like some people preferring Majoras mask over Ocarina of Time and vice versa. The game fits with YOU. It doesn't HAVE TO fit with OTHER PEOPLE. YOUR opinion is YOURS and because others don't agree you don't need to hate them. There's no need to hate as long as you try to understand, which obviously is evident that you don't. You just say that it's your way and that's it and everyone who don't think like you are morons and reasonable to hate.
That's a very odd thing to say.
And that's because there are people like you who hate so easily over trivial things that I really dislike the Internet.
It's all about OPINION. And it's nothing to hate people over. Especially over the Internet. Come on.
On Internet what's written stays written.
You're right I don't understand the post, if I did I would have gotten another message than that the original poster simply dislikes the games because of designs. There has been no other points in his arguments that don't mention design.
I understand you're post fine, but the way you quoted Subsuck it just seems like you're defending the original poster because you feel the same about the designs. At least you backed up with other reasons then the designs of why you didn't like the games. Really I'm just annoyed that you would go attack Subsuck just because he was sharing his love for Tangrowth and you immediately taking it as an attack for someone who attacks people because he thinks they hate the games just for the designs. As far as we know based on the original poster's posts so far, that is the only reason he hates the games.
