4th Gen Most Stupid Thing on DPPt ?

It has to be type distribution. In D/P there were hardly any fire or electric types, so Flint ended up having the only two fire types in the game plus three randoms. It was the same with Volkner.

All you guys seem to hate honey trees. I don't like them either but I always get heracrosses and aipoms. It's weird, I guess I'm just lucky.
That's because you have to wait 12 hours. Some people probably want to catch a Munchlax too or something...and yeah, you probably are lucky.
 
Yeah that's why I don't like them. The time length sucks. I've only ever encountered one munchlax. Lucky again......
 
yuck I forgot about these stupid trees ! the headbuttings back in HGSS (GOD SAVED US ALL ) , and plus , I guess that itll a freak easier to get the MUnchlax now , eh ?

Also , when I got WiFi home I siad YAYAYAYAAAAAY youre mine Rayquaza and I figured out I couldnt WAAaah o_0

Also the only 'real' thing I reallly got was an Aipom , and that's it stupid Wurmples and Cascoons LEAVE ME ALLLOOOOONE
 
I think its because the DPPt games are a bit easy. Yeah there's many features but still kinda easy....
 
Bidoof. Just, Bidoof.

More seriously, it can get really, really slow in parts-- scrolling through the item menu, the intro battle animations, etc. Platinum rectified some of this, but it's still ridiculously slow to do anything compared to say, Fire Red.
 
The honey trees, who wants to wait 9 hours to find a Wurmple/Silcoone/Cascoon?

Also, the migrating system, if you desperately want to start a new game on your Sapphire which has 60 pokemon ( that you dearly want to keep) and you want to put them on your Diamond to save them, it will take you.....10 days to put all of them on =/
 
Honey Trees
No Fire Type or pure flying type
Team Galactice have no sense of creativity ( 4 zubats in a row )
 
Honey trees (y can't you just find wild munchlaxes???in however many years it is since i've had Diamond, i've never got a Munchlax off a honey tree!!)

Most of the new pokemon except Piplup and Turtwig evolutions (awesome typings + no other penguins as far as i know).

Electirizer and Magmarizer. God, its almost as if they're encouraging cloning the item incase you don't get the nature you want!!!

Starly. Bidoof. we have enough normal-flying types with Spearow, Pidgey and Taillow. that's a (something), a pidgeon, and a swallow!!!do we really need a starling aswell??

And god, i would just like to congratulate the anime people on managing to bring out Bidoof's retardedness to T.V. in that one with the angry Steelix.

The Villa. Nice idea, but i tend to just buy tons of items, then get a team consisting of the poke i want to level up, and HM slaves, then continuously circumnavigate the Battle Zone. And if have money, i spend it on Carbos etc.
Maybe if it was cheaper, it'd be ok.

Migration:
Limit to 6 pokes=crap
24 hours= crap
and as far as i can remember, nobody pointed out the bit about you not being able to migrate them knowing HMs!!What about Flash and Dive from Hoenn??? Flash is a tm and pokes learn Dive in Sinnoh!!!! God, you can trade pokes with 4 HM moves.

And the Lost Tower.
While things like Starly make a half-decent attempt at trying to outdo jsut copying pidgey (ever seen a pidgeot with close combat???), that pokemon tower wannabe is crap, god you can see the top of it on the screen!!!(you maybe can with pokemon tower, but at least it'd big).

Fog. I know it's more realistic, but if you're going to punish us for not having room for Defog by losing all accuracy in moves, why not make it that it can be anywhere and go all the way????
 
The Slooooooooooooow Menus. It drives me crazy. I have to use select (The moving items thingy) and cancel it at the bottom just to try and speed up my scrolling through my HUGE list of items, That I cannot deposit into the PC Because there is no Item Storage!
Next up, Honey trees, pointless, frustrating, and SLOW.
The Battles are also very slow >.< my Battle animations are off about 90% of the time just to try and speed things up. (Gee, I wonder if we're starting to see a pattern?)
Garchomp and Bidoof. Bidoof, Ugly, Braindead, Pointless THING. I only ever use it's evolved form as an HM Slave! And Garchomp, oh, no, The most horrible evil over powered Over Used Thing with a screwed up head that wipes out my entire team One Hit KOs.

Alright. I'm done ranting now. ^^
 
I've read through this thread, and the only thing I can really agree on is lack of fire and electric types. I would love me a whole bunch of new ones.

I can understand the gripe with the honey trees, but it's not that hard to check every 6 hours. In a few days, I managed to get every honey tree Pokémon.

Of course, this is from a guy who played 100 hours in a week ^^;. But now I can just breed what I need. Hell, I have like, 10 female Combee now.
 
Slow surfing
Ball sealed pokemon not being able to be deposited.
Some of the pokémon are a bit wierd looking i.e. Bastidon.
Poffins [Bring back the Pokéblocks, clicking instead of the touch screen is much easier!)
Garchomp. Should not be allowed.
 
Starly. Bidoof. we have enough normal-flying types with Spearow, Pidgey and Taillow. that's a (something), a pidgeon, and a swallow!!!do we really need a starling aswell!

Precisely my biggest problem, with close to 500 different pokemon we are starting to double/triple up on various pokemon like all the normal/flying variations out there. I don't really think we need all of rattata, sentret, zigzagoon and most definately not BIDOOF!

Whilst I am not against the 6 at a time limit for migration (because I would hate to lose ten plus Pokemon in a ill fated transfer) but I am against the 24hr wait period.

The GTS is inherrently flawed as well, only being useful for picking up extra starter pokemon.

Plus the aformentioned lack of fire pokemon...
 
I don't like the new... berry stuff. Like, you actually have to work to get berries now. The app makes it easier to remember where they are I guess so I suppose it's okay...
And I miss secret bases. The ones underground aren't the same. <.>
 
I have to say the fact, that gen 4 hardly introduced any Fire-type Pokémon. A legendary, an ugly Magmar on steroids and the Chimchar line. Seriously, that's weak!
 
The Save Time. Taking out a pokemon or storing one, hell, even CATCHING one brings up "Saving a lot of data."
 
honey trees.. and the fact that u have to wait till every friday to catch a drifloon
 
I hate it that some pokemon only appear in a certain game and you have to trade it over to another game, like misdreavus only appears in pearl and it is one of my favourite pokemon.
 
I hate Honey Trees! It took at least 7 times to get a female Combee.
And because I have Diamond, I couldn't catch a Misdreavus because I prefer them over Murkrow.

Sometimes the text goes very slowly despite the fact that it's on medium.. odd.
