Can it really be called the dark age if Gen 9 being the 5th bad generation in a row makes the franchise have more bad gens than good ones? Shouldn't we call it the normal age as it is clearly the standard for years to come?

> 5th Bad Generation in a row
> Gen 5 literally the best gen
> Gen 6s only bad games are XY
> Gen 7 is just average and certainly not bad
> Gen 8s only bad game is SwSh
> Gen 9 hasn't even come out yet and it's looking to be even more ambitious than Legends, taking the basic framework provided there but in a proper region with trainers, towns, cities, and gyms.


The denial some of you have about the quality of the franchise is fucking absurd.

Platinum is pretty good

I'm Greek and have to inhale some major copium over spain being a region rn and still no Greece region, so nice try.

>Gen 6s only bad games are the only two games it got

>being the 5th bad generation in a row
There's only been 2 bad generations and they're both characterized by a lack of National Dex and revolving their entire region's identity around some disposable gimmick.

>> Gen 5 literally the best gen
By what metric?

By every metric.

Gen 1 good

Gen 3 good
Gen 4 bad
Gen 5 good
Gen 6 bad
Gen 7 good
