    Are any of the newer games good?

    I actually finally got AS a few weeks ago and it is stellar. Storytelling has come a long way in the genre.

    My only complaint is that they've made mega stones an almost exclusively end game item. I wish they would introduce megas as a fundamental part of the game at this point and let you pick whichever one you want somewhere near the beginning and meet other trainers with megas, rather than it being a special snowflake only the main character and a couple of others have. My poor Houndoom wants his bone armor.

    AS isn't a newer game though, that's effectively gen 3, I was talking X/Y, Black & White and "sequels" (not sure if they're actually sequels, don't think so?).

    Well sure but what I was asking was if XY, BW, BW2 are any good, not if the remakes are good (I've played the first 3 gens and remakes of the first 2).

    I still think we should have a Pokemon subforum instead of just one thread :/

    Eh, I disagree. XY was a new game while ORAS was just a remake. As someone who played the crap out of RSE back in the day, I was disappointed playing through ORAS finding it basically identical. I missed the added features from XY like trainer customization and the huge regional pokedex!

    They are good. Great, in fact.
    If you add me on Steam, Skype or whatever program/client I share my info for, please write something to identify you in the "Dude/gal wants to join your club"-message. Just so I know that an actual human is on the other end :P

    How would you rank the generations? Remakes not included.

    True, but you got a game that was essentially XY + soaring and secret bases and a ton of other stuff. I mean, if you REALLY care about the story I can see how it would be disappointing, though it wasn't for me either way since I never played the originals (though I knew their entire story anyway...).

    Gameplay is a straight 6-5-4-3-2-1 for me. I honestly believe each generation has iterated and improved upon the formula.

    Based on willingness to replay on a fresh save I'd go 5-3-4-6-2-1. (remakes included as part of what "Main" generation they're a part of.

    And, just to watch the world burn, PokéAthlon is the best damn side-activity. Ever. Screw your beauty contests and film-making, even though the film-making was fun :P
