http://wii.ign.com/articles/114/1143440c.html#comments_top?p=6&s=ASC Here is a link to the article. But I found it very corny. It talks about all the main games (RBY-DPPt) and how they changed over the past 13-14 years. Oh and bewhere of major hatred by CoD fanboys in the comments of it.

i thought it was well documented. they had all the major changes down from generation to generation and from game to game but they also noticed the minor changes that made one different from the other. i wished the would've had pictures and artwork because they talked about the changing art styles and it would've been nice to see them side by side.

i go to ign.com almost everyday, and there are tons of idiotic comments, you get used to them.

I actually found it lacking, as it didn't cover FR/LG or HGSS which are pretty notable games to choose not to mention. =/ Why not mention what those games added? One could do a comparison between the originals and remakes to prove their point that Pokemon has had changes and so forth. Furthermore, the Pokemon fanchise is bigger than Game Freak, so not to mention the spin-off titles like Stadium, Snap, Pinball, Colo/XD, PBR, the Ranger/MG series, Ranch/Rumble which outnumber the main games (or go close to it at least) makes the article rather barebones in my opinion - one could for instance mention that Pokemon has explored other game styles based on those games.

I wanted it to discuss at least a bit about COL/XD games, those games were a hit in their years as well, more than most games in fact. SPin off games originated out of them, of course, and must at least have their own talk on or disscussion.
i think their article was aimed at people who were knocking the traditional handheld catch 'em all games. most people associate pokemon with those games anyways
