Favourite Storyline

[Maggazone]

This is a poll where you get to say what your favourite storyline is from all the pokemon games...

 

[Dark Piplup]

Really that is to hard for me. They were alll awesome! Though Kanto was great and classic. Probably Gen. 3. The region was big and had lots to do!

 

[Maggazone]

Yeah Gen 3 was awesome that was my favourite :D

 

[Azure Revolver]

Generation 5, easily. The only story with any sort of complexity and is interesting. Team Plasma actually had a rational goal (Free pokemon from the oppressors) and had a good cause, and they were the most awesome villains evar.

Also, N. That is all.

I always find it funny that every N fangirl forgets that Team Plasma's 'goal' was really ******** Ghetsis shoved down their throats so he could have power over them. "Save the sad kittens" is a surprisingly useful phrase for assembling an army.

Personally, my favorite plots were those of Generations I, IV, and V. Team Galactic, Team Plasma, and Team Rocket's goals nearly came to be, and they had some really good plans. Also, I loved the characters from those Gens.

N, that is all.

 

Ghetsis is far better. Eyepatch >    Attractiveness.

Also, I agreed with his tactics on raising N, creating Team Plasma, etc.

Noob out.

I didn't forget that. I'd like to point you to the fact that Ghestis was the only one who knew of his plan, obviously, the rest were likely dedicated to the cause, regardless of whether it was a lie or not, and if the ways they sought the goal were immoral, their goals were at least the most moral, and they didn't do anything more evil than the other villains' groups did, yet their goals were immoral and blatantly evil.

Oh, and the one in question, N, CLEARLY did not know of Ghestis' plan. He was manipulated, his ideals and goals were the real thing, and likely a good majority of Team Plasma. Ghestis was not. He was a manipulative bastard.

I like Gen IV's storyline, particularly the Platinum one (with Giratina in it). Gen V's story is starting to rub on me because of the darker story elements introduced, N and Ghetsis, in particular.

I liked Generation 2, because it was a real continuation of Gen 1 that had a lot of callbacks. It felt like a real sequel, like the story wasn't over. Gen 5's storyline is good the first time you play it, but after a while it begins to bug me.

 

[mikey]

Generation 5 was my favorite, it was pretty detailed and fun to go through.

 

[TheGoddessOfDiscord]

My favourite storyline is Generation IV, especially Platinum's with Giratina and Distortion world in it. I'm interested in mythology and that's what fourth Generation focused on.

 

[Mr Cat Dog]

I'm never really bothered about the story, to be honest. I understand its relative necessity and there seems to be a burgeoning desire to make it more complicated with each new Generation, but Id rather they go for a simple story well told, rather than inundate us with a whole new mythology about the creation of the Pokemon world (first it was Mew, then it was Arceus... and there's probably going to be something after that!)

In saying that, my favourite is definitely Gen II: it worked out the kinks of Gen I, gave you a rival that was actually worthy of its status, and didn't place too big a burden on the legendaries but still gave them enough weight to be in awe of.

 

[Pokemon Trainer Touko]

Gen V for sure. Team Plasma is really interesting and so is N. XD N is the best.

 

[hawaiiandiscobollocks]

I said Gen II and Gen V, because of the extended plot in the former, and the cooler, more realistic storyline in the latter.

Team Plasma actually seemed like a real team of bad guys, y'know? I could believe it, and I can't say the same for Gen III with Team Aqua and Team Magma... Down with land and water? wat?

 

[Maggazone]

Agreed :) I had to say that those 2 Generations were the best as they probably had the most to do. lol :D

In my opinion, all plotlines of Pokemon Games are severely lacking. None of them are suspenseful enough to give the player a reason to keep playing, other than beating all of the gyms, as well as the Pokemon League. Out of all the main games, I'd have to say that Diamond/Peal/Platinum's storyline really stood out. I believe there was once a rumor going around, that the plot of these games was originally much deeper/darker, but was revised, due to Pokemon being a kids' game. That's not to say that these games don't have the makings for a great storyline, though. Unlike Ruby and Sapphire, as well as Black and White, Team Galactic actually had an extremely valid reason for using the power of their game's respective legend. The best part of the plot would have to be the antagonist himself, Cyrus. Cyrus is quite the interesting character, he having gathered legions of followers, united in a radical pursuit, with the power of speech, alone. We also get a glimpse of what led Cyrus to become the man that he is, through the dialogue of the NPCs found in one of the houses in Sunnyshore and the old man, living on Route 228. Diamond and Pearl led me to believe that the plot of Pokemon games would improve in the future, although the plot of Pokemon Black/White failed to set this belief in stone.

I voted for Gen III and Gen V. Gen I really didn't have much of a storyline at all, imo. "Save the world from the impending Rocket threat!!"... and what impending threat was this? Their Raticates were getting rabies? :/

Gen II was better but still, not really much of anything to me. Gen IV's was satisfactory, yes, but I mean it just still had something... off, about it. I'm probably just showing too much favoritism because Gen III and V were my most-liked, but I really liked the idea behind Hoenn and its myths and Gen V is probably the best storyline incorporated into a mainstream Pokemon game yet. I liked everything about those two.

 

[Maggazone]

Their Raticates were getting rabies? :/

Lol, probably. "We have to stop Team Rocket to save the Raticates from getting rabies!" Wait who cares about the Raticates? Actually a could care less about the Raticates, there like my lease favourite pokemon besides Zubat. :D

I don't think they ever said Mew was involved in the creation of the Pokemon World...

 

[Maggazone]

I don't think they ever said Mew was involved in the creation of the Pokemon World...

They never said mew created or helped arceus create the world they said that Arceus alone created the world but in the Unova region they said reshiram and zekrom created the landscape in an epic battle

 

[eightbit]

What storyline?

Gen V is the only one that actually has one, I think.
