Gen 8. I didn't have a job then, and i don't have it now, so i couldn't possibly get a Switch and its expensive games. Yet i keep buying a lot of PC games, even deluxe 80$ ones.
Why? A mystery.
I do keep up, love the creatures and play on showdown tho.

Hoenn after you defeat Kyogre/Groudon. For whatever reason I just couldn't be bothered to continue the game.
Additionally, the game felt lifeless and shallow compared to Johto. Kanto had the saving grace of being graphically deficient enough that you could imagine the actual game in your head as you played.

>Why did Pokemon give up on making high quality products?
Because it was a fluke. After gen 2, which was just a refinement on gen 1, the whole IP started its steady decay into mediocrity. The spinoffs remained more interesting. I found XD and Colosseum more interesting than RSE and Mystery Dungeon R/B and especially Sky better than any DS mainline game. It's a shame that despite the mindshare actual Roguelikes aren't very popular. My buddy that plays alot of "roguelikes" in his own words wasn't even aware that the term came from the game Rogue, much less what kind of gameplay that involved.
>>
>>737070967
It's because it's too successful, legitimately. Pokemon as a media franchise totally has totally outpaced the games, which means there's a lot of money riding on production that can't wait on the slower cadence of video game development, and Game Freak was too incompetent to keep up with the switch to 3D and then HD, and too stubborn to outsource it to other companies. Not that I blame them, the moment they admit that someone can do better than them, they lose that cash cow forever.

Go check out the Blokees figures. Genuinely awesome and high-quality and I hope they come to the US outside of a few online shops like BBTS. The quality being taken out of the games sucks but if it's being distributed amongst toys then it's a worthy tradeoff. The SMG movie toys were neat too.

>never collected all the pokemons, just beat the gym leaders or elite 4 or whatever and quit.
Honestly even blue got ruined cause kids were duping mewtwos and duping rare candies to make shit lvl 999 so what was the point in even trading unique shit from blue to gain unique shit from red?
Glad I never got into the cards either.
Its just such a braindead game press A, so many random encounters.
One of my friends used to play it like an idle game where he'd just press buttons while at work and not even look at it or engage with it. I thought it was mentally ill.

This last game is where I've fully given up. To be fair, it hasn't been worth playing since S/M, but I was still holding out some hope. With Z-A being trash, I'm past hoping for better. Only things worth engaging with pokemon wise are the memes and porn.

The actual answer isn't that they've given up, it's that they're struggling. Game Freak wants to have their cake and eat it too, but they can't and something's gotta give eventually.
They want to remain a relatively small and tight studio and not become the mega studio messes that things like Assassins Creed are nowadays (GF is about 200 people, compare to the average modern AC team with 1,000+). The problem is this was viable with regular output for them when their games were on the DS, less so for the 3DS and even less so now.
They clearly want to keep the series fresh. They've experimented much more radically in recent games than ever before. But they just don't have the manpower or modern technical knowledge to keep up with regular releases on modern hardware.
At the very least it's something they're aware of, as Wind/Waves has the longest dev time of one of their games in a while.
All that said, I still enjoy and play their games, but recognise their flaws. Nothing else delivers the same experience, and yes I do play the competitors too (actually just finished Time Stranger last night, it was rad).

The Pokemon Company have tacitly endorsed Gardevoir and Meowscarada as officially approved "for sex with humans" waifumons in the past year or so. They've pivoted away from 20+ years of never openly implying that stuff (outside of a few in game lore bits about the distant past) to leaning into it now between the anime and the Gardevoir Poketoon short.

Mostly official stuff I like fangames and the games inspired by pokemon
You can pinpoint the moment the franchise's mainline games quality started to decline
>Make gen 5 a reboot and remove the older mons
>People didn't like that and want the older mons
>"Aw dang it people don't like new stuff better pander to nostalgia"
>Rush Gen 6 making the game feel like it's still in beta with a gimmick that can attract older fans
>The games sucked but people liked the nostalgic stuff so it made bank
And now every new game that tries bring something new ends up being halfassed because the devs were rusheed cuz now the franchise is just merch first and game later
I will say Gen 10 so far looks better than i expected hopefully it ends up as a good game for the industry standard rather than just the pokemon standard
>>

>>

>>737079183
People say this but it's not true, officially Pokemon always danced around the subject because it's a kids game, there has been a notable recent shit though.
You can especially see it in the new anime which is much more shounen than kodomo in demographic.

The first time I got stoned I ate a particularly strong edible and tried playing Pokemon (Black 2), and as it took effect I started getting a terrible sense of existential dread as I continued to play until I turned it off and realized that literally everything else felt like a better thing to do. I played Pokemon up into Sun and Moon, but after that experience it was never quite the same.

After x/y, not because it was bad or anything though. I enjoyed it, but after that I was done buying Nintendo hardware in general. If they don't want to make more money by releasing on PC it's their choice. If their calculations say they will make more by staying exclusive good on them. I'm just not bothering anymore

In general, the bigger the franchise, the more control and red tape to go through. Minecraft has a similar issue.
Pokemon games were also noted to have an extremely small budget compared to the money they made in sales.

It also had superb online, tons of features that are rarely discussed now like Friend Safari and Super Training, and was the last generation to feature actual map design, puzzles, and such instead of hallways or wide open bland empty space.
Though personally I think the Pokemon designs were weak (My favorite type is bug and a ton of Vivillon forms don't do much for me) and I don't care about Mega Evolution.
People tend to malign it because it is the single easiest game in the entire series to play blind. No amount of "but every other game falls to maxed out starter pokemon" can change this. It is absolutely pathetic.
Overall still not that bad though. Best customizing of trainers too, shame ZA didn't follow through on that legacy.

Women are also affected by this. Literally any anal porn actress you can think of wears diapers. They often have to wear buttplugs when they show up during events and stuff. And the actual movies aren't much better, the enema obsession japanese porn(doujinshi as well, surprisingly) can give you a slight insight into the reality of things, but it's like, wayyy worse than you would think. Smells like hell, too.
Porn is a dirty, dirty business, and it's absolutely not that sexy kind of dirty.
It's just not talked about, for obvious reasons. And the less obvious push towards anal by the usual suspects. Y'know, no babies, having to depend on "medical system" due to the complications(diseases too), dildos you can sell to males(literally wasn't even a thing 20 years ago), all the lube, etc.
