Ever notice how everyone's favorite Pokemon generation is the one they grew up with?

Ever notice how everyone's favorite Pokemon generation is the one they grew up with? It's strange how no one can judge those games without nostalgia bias.

    pokemon has nothing going for it other than nostalgia so it makes sense

      Yeah, pretty much, every game is the exact same shit so the one you played at the target age is going to be the best.

      Unfortunately, pokemon is one of if not the best monster tamer game on the market despite the glitches.
      Hopefully the new DQM will be able to match it in that regard.

    Most people "grew up with" several generations cause they pump a new one out every year or two.

      I was born in 93, blue was my first game, BW/BW2/Legends are my favorite games.

      No my favorite is 5, I grew up with gen 3 specifically leaf green

      I grew up with gen 1-3 and then stopped playing for years. Gen 5 is the objective best

      I've played pokemon since gen 1 and to me 3,4,5 are the best examples of pokemon games with 5 being the top dog.

      Im 36 and gen 5 is my favourite. Gen 2 remakes are second.

      Of course Ganker loves the contrarian generation

        >best pixel/2D graphics before the game went terrible 3D
        >one of the best balanced pokedexes
        >no gen 1 pandering, only new pokemon can be caught first play through
        >many quality of life features everyone always wanted, like the game telling you what natures do, about EV/IVs, audinos reduce the need for grinding
        >seasons are kino
        >OST is amazing
        >story isn't great but it actually tries unlike every pokemon game till then
        >gym leaders actually DO something for once
        >team has kind of an interesting point
        >double and triple battles are way better than megas/zmoves/gigantimax/whatever the frick
        >hilda's ass
        >many more things I'm probably forgetting cause it's been a few years since replaying them

        I won't even bring up the hard mode shit cause that is actually moronic and doesn't really count. It's the last time gamefreak actually tried to make a good generation, they've been phoning it in since.

    Strange
    I grew up in the 90s and I don't like pokemon at all. They're subpar RPGs with no story, no plot, no engaging mechanics and no depth.

    I have played and enjoyed every mainline entry in the series. The only disappointing thing about the new games is that they don't have all the Pokemon in them.

    What a profound observation, OP. You are a smart boi.

    I think HeartGold, SoulSilver, FireRed and LeafGreen were the best games in the series. I just don't see what other people see in Black and White.

    The thing about being an adult is I grew up with all the generations, hence why my opinion is the most valid.

    Because you need nostalgia bias to think Pokemon was good at any point. The ultimate truth is that the series is trash, nothing but trash, has always been trash and it will always be trash.

      You're moronic, pokemon was pretty good when it started the issue is that every game after gen 2 is one step forward one step back

    Actually, I don't give a shit about the generation I grew up with or any other iteration of pokemon for that matter. I work with some gay who is literally my age and spends money on "classic" pokemon collectible shit and it's incredibly sad and pathetic. We're in our 30s and he shows me pictures of all the garbage he buys. My fault for ever having a conversation about pokemon with him to begin with.

    Gen 2-5 are pretty much on par with each other so the tiebreaker is gonna be whatever you are most nostalgic for.

    People who actually like Gen 1 have probably ONLY played Gen 1.

    I only played pokemon that I grew up with, which equates to four full generations. My favorite is ruby/sapphire/emerald. don't tell me that's nostalgia bias, I have nostalgia for the other 3 gens out of the first four too.

    I grew up with the first three generations of Pokemon and ultimately decided that the very first one is my favorite. Objectively there are better ones, I just enjoy the unsettling, mysterious atmosphere, primitive graphics, amateurish artwork and the many game-breaking glitches.
