With the second part of the expansion coming out this fall, think they'll try to improve the Y-comm features?

Gamefreak isn't fixing anything that's already in the game. The DLC is just that, extra downloadable content i.e. a new area for you to explore. Why should they care to fix anything already in the game? They're just a small indie company

I think it starts out more that they try to be "stunning and brave" (or just simply contrarian) by proclaiming those generations the best of the series. And their response when the popular consensus inevitably doesn't agree with them is to pull out the victim card and whine about being "bullied." So basically how everyone reacts to any drop of criticism these days.

They also hate that gen v is the current popular generation in the fandom so they bash it and try to tear the games down to prop up thier favorites. I mean gen V fans aren’t innocent either with thier past in pushing back against the “genwunners” but the 6-8 fans are even more annoying.

Afaik Gen 5 had always been the most hated on, due to Gamefreak being so liberal with the changes they made in the game. Similar to the outcry for national dex, when Black and White released lots of people were pissed because until post game you had no access to older Pokémon (Because of how upset people were at the time, Gamefreak put in a lot of older Pokémon from the start in Black and White 2). Only recently have people understood that "hey, this game might actually be good" but at this point the initial reaction is all that matters to TPC which is why I believe they and Gamefreak just said "fuck it" with trying to be innovative and now we're stuck with the same old since Generation 6.
Personally I believe that Gen 5 is probably objectively the best Pokémon gen, even if it's not my favourite. It's mostly lacking in the QOL that later gens have, otherwise it holds up pretty well.

It's something I've said before, but the initial backlash with gen V was the single biggest mistake the fanbase has ever done. It's because of their actions at that moment in time that the series is forever doomed to be stuck in a perpetual Kanto circlejerk with 50 Charizard forms.

the 3d gen super fans are sorta like NU-trek fans, they are defending shit out of familiarity and not really considering how the game as a whole comes together. Not to say everything needs to be perfect but with gens 1-5 everything felt like it came together for a cohesive point. Gen 6 tried this with the whole "beauty and war" thing but it felt under-cooked. and ever since X and Y game freak has had problems making a satisfying game imo.
It's just defending a property out of nostalgia and fear that it might "go away if it gets attacked too much". In other words people have a series sunken cost train of thought.
That or they directly profit off of the series shitting out entries constantly but that's poketubers so what can you expect?

I think that the previous games had a point to their stories and they felt satisfying to go through, especially when you figure out the next trigger after wandering around aimlessly for hours.
Gen 6 stopped you in your tracks at every point and the story doesn't make sense overall and I just can't bring myself to care about it. Gen 7 could have been good if they cut out Hau (he's adorable but useless to the story, essentially) and trim the fat to make a decent game.

Gen 6 was such a waste of a region that had a lot of cool shit you could do with it. from stuff like the french revolution to stuff like the french new wave they could of done alot more with kalos for inspiration and it feels like they just pumped and dumped it to move onto Gen 3 remakes and alola.
Like they tried with the pokemon war stuff but as I said earlier, undercooked.
Gen 7 is the first time I have ever seen decompressed story telling outside of comics and god was every stop with Hau saying useless shit a mistake. Like I don't have a problem with long plots but a lot of SuMo's dialog just made the game feel long and meandering.

Gen 6 is also a waste in the fact that there was no definitive/sequel/alternate retelling version. IIRC, Gen 7 was released because an anniversary was coming up, and then poor Gen 6 is irrelevant, save for Lysandre showing up in Rainbow Rocket.
I've never seen a more cucked line of games than X and Y. Where's muh AZ's Floette?

Less stellar Pokémon games aside, let's discuss a decent one.
With Grand Master Rank achieved, I completed the milestone board and can finally put the kibosh on this great game. And at least my playtime shows that I didn't "no life" the game. Such a moment would come when one decides to amass a living dex, including the available shiny pokemon. But I'd just recommend that folks just stop after they beat Wish Cave and Purity Forest.
With a spinoff game like this, I can't wait for New Pokémon Snap!

Sort of. It might encourage Game Freak to make more games similar to the quality of Sword and Shield. Although, other factors played into that game being one of the more weaker entries such as it starting off as yet another 3ds game before it was hastily brought over to the Switch.

I stopped after doing the achievements (grand master rank being the exception) but it was nice to finally play a Pokemon game with effort.
Even then the game dev philosophy from people like Masuda and Ohmori will prevent it from surpassing Gens 3-5. Gotta get those mobile and kanto audiences.

Huh, this is kinda weird. With this new recruitment system I had expected PSMD to just give you one of each pokemon with the option to evolve them later, but apparently they sometimes give you two copies of the same mon along with their earlier evolutions. So now I have two venusaurs who just joined as venusaurs, one bulbasaur, and presumably an ivysaur on the way after I unlock its mission. I mean I know that with the old recruitment systems you could just grab 3 of the same mon anyway if you want, but since it's based on missions here and not defeating them from random dungeon encounters I hadn't expected them to just throw dupes at you.
