Eeeh... I really wish people wouldn't make number only posts but at this point I'm okay with it.

They changed it because they're trying to appeal to this generation of 12 year olds as opposed to their older fanbase. Also, Zinnia was a horrendously boring character in both character and in her team.

Honestly, I ignore the strictly number posts nowadays.

Most of the people who wanted the remakes were people who played it when it was first released. Aka older fans.

So yeah I don't think that was a good choice.

One of the problems though was that the general atmosphere didn't change all that much from some of the previous games like BW2 and X/Y so it would be a bit more difficult to actually get invested were you to pay attention to the plot of the game now considering this was a rather kid centered setting with the bulk of the players being a tad older than 15 now, assuming that last bit at least.

They had the right idea with having older characters to play as in BW1 but they went backwards on that idea soon after.

If I'm not making much sense right now, it's because I just got back from a 8 mile walk and I'm catching my breath.

Long story short, the main characters were way too damn young. Like, we're talking 7 year olds here. Why I care about this particular matter in the slightest, I have no clue. But hey, it's good to talk about something at least even if it can be considered miniscule.

One of the only problems I have with Black and White 2 is Hugh. He's a terrible rival.

Hugh the Qwilfish-head was pretty fun! Honestly one of the reasons why I love B2W2. Well, him, the music and the maps. Not to mention the NPCs :P

BW2 was only good for the post game imo. Could have used the genie trio as well, give you the alternate forms without some external bs and all of that. At least you can get a Volcarona earlier if I remember right.

Yeah, you could, quite early on. I thoroughly enjoyed the cities and music in Unova. Not even X/Y had creative and cool things like the Underwater Tunnel and Skyarrow Bridge!

Those areas were interesting for about a few seconds at most. Interesting areas are a start but you need something to make you want to go back. You know, for practical reasons like battles, items, or wild Pokemon. Good thing they got that right with N's Castle as long as you fiddled with the DS clock to make N appear there more often.

That's pretty much why I refer to Unova as my favourite region but not to BW/B2W2 as my favourite games.

Tbh Red, Blue, and Yellow are my favorites purely out of nostalgia.

My favorite gen was Gen 4, even if Diamond & Pearl felt bare bones at the time but Platinum more than made up for that.

Gen 3 was kind of fun too. Couldn't get into XD and Emerald that much but the other entries in that generation were fun as hell.

I'm all about Gen 2, even if I don't really play any of the related games anymore. My poor HeartGold, I restarted you and then left you to sit again.

Gen 3 is okay, it's one of those where I'm not sure how much I actually like it, and then when I play one of the games it's far more enjoyable than I thought it would be.

So we're all in agreement that Crystal/HGSS/Colosseum were the best in the series?
