I love Pokemon and all but it's hard to keep up with all the great games coming out these days. I feel like I'll never be able to put the time into this it deserves. Also, that 2-gear Pokemon looks like an all-time low for the series. Sadly, maybe it's time to bow out. :(

@(Unverified) Actually, I have. And you're right, Probopass is worse. It's like the horrific offspring of Mario and a boulder.

Ludicolo has it's charms, it at least has a discernible theme.

Probopass and this gear thing are just filler

(Me, years ago)

Man, that Giraffarig thing looks super lame! Pokemon is so stupid! I'm never buying a new Pokemon game ever again!

(Me, a few years after that)

Wow, that Ralts thing is really stupid looking. I'm probably getting too old for Pokemon.

(Me, a few years ago)

Jesus, that Bidoof thing is ugly. I quit Pokemon, man. Game over.

Luvdisc was official proof they stopped trying. Only thing worse would be a plain smiley face pokemon.

I can't play this game anymore. I refuse to participate in a game that has an advertised ending, but is yanked away anytime you get close... gotta catch them all... what a joke. You know they're just going to add more and more pokemon. Catching them all is just not possible and will never be possible.

You know they haven't used the "Gotta catch 'em all" tagline for years now, right? They haven't used it since Gen2 (Gold/Silver) or Gen3 (Ruby/Sapphire)... I forget exactly when.

@(Unverified) I'm really surprised that this isn't going to be a 3DS launch title. If I recall, this will be the first time 2 generations of Pokemon come out on the same system.

I always have to say it, but gen 1 and 2 are on different systems. Gen 1 was designed for the original gb, while gold/silver were designed to take advantage of the gb color (shiny pokemon, etc) and crystal didn't even work on the original gb.

@This Little Man Says His Name Is

Nope, Red/Green was for the Game Boy and Gold/Silver/Crystal was for the Game Boy Color. Which is considered successor to the Game Boy (according to Wikipedia).

As the original releases yes. If you had of read any further into that wikipedia page you would also realise that they released green, an improved version of red/blue for the gbc and that outside japan red/blue use green as the base.

I'm impressed that (it appears) they actually added some idle animations in battle for the pokemon. That being said, I'm very disappointed that they haven't made the battle models 3D yet.

@Frostblade10 The DS wouldn't really be able to do the battles any justice. I'd say wait till the 3DS games. For now, I'm happy with detailed 2D sprites.

I wanna be the very best

Like no one ever was

To catch them is my real test

To train them is my cause

I will travel across the land

Searching far and wide

Teach Pokemon to understand

The power that's inside

You know, I liked RSE, I even tolerated DPP but....dear god those are some of the worst designs for fictional creatures I have ever seen. Looks like this current generation is my last.

That gear thing oh man

Can't wait. Although with all the changes there is to this new game, format and story wise, I can't believe people are writing the game off because of ONE bad design.

what was the other thing? I would make some jovially scathing remark about multiple sclerosis but knowing my luck, i'd be right, and i'd have to feel bad about it afterward.

Glad to see that they're actually trying to do something different with these games like the constant battle animations, less of a top down view and more '3D' areas.

I really loved the pokemon games: progression, storyline, mechanics and setting were awesome, even when I got older. But I got too old for the TV show, it seemed too childish and immature 'round the sixth season...

You should read the manga. It's still aimed to pre-teens, but it's A LOT better that the anime.
