Kanto's freedom is one of its better parts & one that's very underrated.

[@freepalestine2434]

The Cynthia theme at 7:32 is one of the best pieces of music in a pokemon game ever. Glad to see it in this video. I remember going through the entire game without difficulty, cleaning up the gyms and elite four, and then as I'm walking along some random beach town in the post-game wishing for a harder experience, I go into this little house and... **cue dramatic piano music** Pokemon usually keeps hard battles in less exciting places so as not to alienate younger players, but it was refreshing to see an important character steamroll me with mons that were 20 or so levels ahead of me, all to the backdrop of dramatic piano music. The battle was as unusual as the music and it made for a very memorable experience.

Pokémon Sword and Shield are the best Pokémon Games in my opinion, galar is my favorite 😍 region, galar is so diverse with the wild area, mini islands in some routes, dungeons, caves, ruins and tundra in the crown tundra and I have purchased both DLC and I just love 💕 galar even more. The newer areas in galar (mainly the crown tundra) is big and I get lost pretty easily in some of the areas in the crown tundra postgame and a new town freezington and many more in the postgame and this alone makes galar the best region in Pokémon. And the crown tundra is part of the galar map and the crown tundra is part of the mainland galar and the isle of armor and the crown tundra resides in galar and galar isn’t as linear as you think it is, if there’s a Third DLC or even Pokémon Sword and Shield Sequel, I wanted to revisit kalos in the postgame because kalos is the only region to never got a Follow Up Pokémon Games, so visiting kalos in the postgame of Pokémon Sword and Shield Sequel will be great and with kalos as a postgame area, galar will be the second best region since johto because both regions are connected with another region.

Another feature Gen 5 added: unbreakable TMs. I was so grateful when those were introduced because before, once you used a TM on a Pokemon, it could only be used once unless you could buy some more. But even then if any TM could be bought, chances were that they were expensive

[@MariOmor1]

I 100% agree with you. It was my first generation and is literally the perfect gen in my opinion. Here are my opinions on the other gens below: Gen 1: Very bland and lacks in story. Only the music and remakes can save it. Gen 2: I haven't played any of the games yet, so I will update when I do Gen 3: Has the perfect balance in terms of difficulty. Gen 4: very chill, but quite difficult in my opinion. Gen 5: has a very good story, but very difficult as well. In fact, it's significantly more difficult than Sinnoh. Gen 6: Not a lot of story, but still good nonetheless. Megas are a cool feature, and the anime boosts the gen in terms of story. Gen 7: Literally the perfect gen. I don't care what anyone says. Gen 8: Introduced the most new features, and has the best rivals and music. Not as bad as it is being treated currently. Reply to me if you have any disagreements.

[@joshuaespinoza2117]

[@matthaisstupidus]

@person person and yet he's the only one who tries to ACTUALLY solve big problems or threats much in the series. Cynthia gives you the psyduck medicine and you have to show up and do it YOURSELF. Then guess who shows up? Apparently she's"proud" to be a champion, yet she can't be bothered to battle Cyrus herself, and instead trusts Rowan's errand boy to do it for her. Oh and did I mention if said errand boy fails, the universe probably will end? Leon on the other hand, genuinely tries to stop Eternatus, and was only not in the phases the player is involved in because he was seemingly knocked out by the blast from Eternatus breaking out of the ball. Hell, all the other Champions either do something or have a reason they werent there other than Diantha and Iris. Gen 1: Blue is the champion, and we do see him go into the rocket base for whatever reason, so he's most likely helping. Gen 2: Lance joins up with you to raid the team rocket base. Gen 3: Steven gets occasionally involved with stopping the evil team, though only occasionally. Gen 5 (BW1): Alder does battle N, he just so happens to lose. Gen 7: Kukui is the professor, so he's most likely busy with research. Cynthia does way less than how people describe it, she just stands in the back row watching everything happen. Even when the world is about to end, she decides "I'll leave it to the ten year old" and watches from the sidelines like it's a movie.

I like that the adults are actually trying to solve the problem this time, and that the protagonist just get's involved by chance becouse things get to much to handle. I think there was also great build up becouse Sonia and Leon tried so hard to keep the kids out of it, but we just keept wittnesing things that hinted just enough at something big going on! (Also, and that might just be me, but this was the only game that made me feel like becoming champion was important to our characters. The mc and even the side characters are so invested in becoming champion, it made ME want to become one xD Where as in B.a.W. the gym challenges where mostly just to stop your progress while the N story was the actually intersting part, and in Saphire I can't even remember the gyms...)

Let me address why I kept the DLCs as a positive of GEN 8: It wasn't only THE FACT that we have DLCs that made it one of the best parts of Gen 8. (cause if I didn't enjoy Isle of Armor, which I did, then I wouldn't have placed it here) It was mostly what was INSIDE the DLCs that I liked. (and what led me to keep it in the video) It just appealed to my play style. (I understand if it didn't for you) The content within the DLCs were a step in the right direction (the exploration, the better set dressing, the additional Pokemon, the seamless wild areas), not only the fact that we have DLCs. Regardless, if you didn't like SwSh, you're not gonna like the DLCs. But I did like SwSh, so I enjoyed em. Obviously it's a controversial aspect of Gen 8 and I understand both arguments. But that's not what this video is about. The negative are for the next video and just like the non-linearity in Johto, the strengths can also be a weakness. So you never know, maybe DLCs will be in the video too.

Agreed. DLC’s are more like fries on a burger meal. The burger goes way better with the fries, but it is completely optional. I also really like the way they made everything so connected in the DLC. The fact you can’t fly means you have to go throughout tons of areas to get to your destination, which might take you somewhere else and make you catch new Pokémon. In the base game, they just connected everything with routes. And also the wild area.

[@cannedburritto6065]

Hoenn has some great characters! Specifically in omega ruby And alpha sapphire: zinnia, Archie, maxie, Courtney, professor birch, Stephen stone, Norman etc. although I believe this I Personally would switch alola and hoenns descriptions as I think alola has better characters

[@KimikoSey]

@Sven Maas Absolutely not the only thing. The gym challenge took the old formula and made it something much more fun, making it more like a sport (which it should be in the world of Pokémon). The DLC, whether you liked it or not, is definitely an improvement over the third versions. They basically gave you the same game with very little differences for double the price compared to the DLC. The raid battles are a fun challenge, and more importantly they are a good foundation for more multiplayer content, which Pokémon lacks. And also all the quality of life changes, which made casual Pokémon much more convenient and getting into competitive much easier. Getting to relearn your moves from basically anywhere for free and getting powerful TRs early in the game is quite nice for playthroughs. And if you are into competetive then all the little things they did to make it easier to breed and get Pokémon battle-ready are amazing. So no, the music certainly is not the only good thing.

Etheralus people love to hate on galar because of the dex cut & an animation you see for half a second

Best of each Kanto: Simple, easy to pick up, enjoyable in most aspects. Johto: Since Johto was connected to Kanto it really improved the geography of the pokemon world. You somewhat get more closure than any other gen, doesn’t really have ancient lore like Kalos but I feel like with the story of Red and Gold make it really good. With Silver slowly getting to be a better person was also a great part Hoenn: It makes you feel like important, with Johto and Kanto you took down a villian team, in Hoenn you took down 2 teams and prevented natural distasters. Sinnoh: Sinnoh feels like a challenge more than any other game, the scenery feels so natural too. Unova: Feels somewhat like the start of a new generation and or step up for gamefreak Kalos: Feels real and better for more mature audiences, I felt like this generation didn’t treat you as a kid like some of the previous did and Galar. Alola: The characters were amazing, even minor characters have expansive personalities for side characters. Galar: I like what the rivals, Hop gives me this vibe like he seems real or someone that you can probably see in real life personality wise, Marnie was great, I really liked her character arc.

[@NylonGenesis]

Best thing about each game for me Kanto- Simple! As you said, everything has to star somewhere and Kanto is the best starting point pokemon could have had. Johto- More ability to interact wit your pokémon. I wish it was kept in. Hoenn- Secret bases and weather mechanics. More overworld adaptations allow for even more immersion. Sinnoh- Only region I havent managed to play lmao. Unova- The Plot. For sure, The music, too. People seem to really love and hate this game, but I think the people who hate it are focusing way too much on the Pokemon designs and less on how FREAKING COOL this game is. Kalos- Absolutely the visuals. The game’s aesthetic is so pleasing that I’ve been tempted to re-buy the game to play it solely for that purpose. This sparks joy. Alola- The overall theme, I agree. I dunno what about this game makes it so cool, but when I see it, I get overwhelming nostalgia even though it’s not that old. I really liked the somewhat dark tones similar to Unova near the end too. Galar- I can’t believe you didn’t talk about this, but the characterization of the Rival. Hop has probably the best personality and arc of any main series pokemon rival except maybe Silver. Annoying or not, he really does feel like a close friend.

[@jafd239]

I get nostalgia for Alola too! That's so weird! And honestly, I thought all the rivals (Bede, Marnie, and Hop) were really well done. None of them are the same at the end as they were at the beginning, and the game does a great job at using music to convey personality (along with their good designs).

[@mikaila6655]

Pokémon Sword and Shield are the best Pokémon Games in my opinion, galar is my favorite 😍 region, galar is so diverse with the wild area, mini islands in some routes, dungeons, caves, ruins and tundra in the crown tundra and I have purchased both DLC and I just love 💕 galar even more. The newer areas in galar (mainly the crown tundra) is big and I get lost pretty easily in some of the areas in the crown tundra postgame and a new town freezington and many more in the postgame and this alone makes galar the best region in Pokémon. And the crown tundra is part of the galar map and the crown tundra is part of the mainland galar and the isle of armor and the crown tundra resides in galar and galar isn’t as linear as you think it is, if there’s a Third DLC or even Pokémon Sword and Shield Sequel, I wanted to revisit kalos in the postgame because kalos is the only region to never got a Follow Up Pokémon Games, so visiting kalos in the postgame of Pokémon Sword and Shield Sequel will be great and with kalos as a postgame area, galar will be the second best region since johto because both regions are connected with another region.

Truegreen7: The appealing part about Kanto is it's freedom! Me: **flashbacks from the Great War** uhh...... Oh and! My opinion of every Region is: Kanto - Challenging Champion and Elite Four, Rival is one of the reason why you want to train much more harder Jhoto - You can walk with your Pokemon, the post-game Hoenn - Amazing Pokemon designs, first game to have 2 antagonists, trumpets Sinnoh - Great myths and story, the underground feature, pianos Unova (my fave) - The friggin' story plot, the music, the new animations (yes TG7 had said it already .-.), the Tao Trio Kalos - The mega evo. features, awesome 3D sprites and animations Alola - The fact that they don't have Gym battle and instead have fun "challenges", the "antagonists" especially Guzma 😂 and Ultra Beast I feel like they made the game mysterious and mysterious is one of favorite things about life Galar - oh.... your expecting me to say some good stuffs that I like about Galar?

Hops battle theme - the original, not the final battle one where he gets serious - is currently tied for my favourite pokemon theme, tied with Accumula. It perfectly shows Hops determination and his dream to overtake his brother to finally get some recognition from his parents (since all the photos on the walls are of Leon, none if Hop), yet also sums up his carefree energetic nature, and Hop as a whole becomes a much better character on a second play through.

One feature I think is severely underrated, is that since gen 6 your pokemon gain experience when you catch a pokemon. This really encourages catching other pokemon, since previously catching different pokemon that you weren't gonna use was kind of a waste of time. But now you can fill out the dex while training at the same time.

[@quaxlyquixote4003]

I like xy because of its little message about how life was too short and how we are very lucky to have it and we should appreciate it a lot more. I know a lot of people didn't like the rivals, but it's just a bunch of kids wanting to hang out with each other. I think it was supposed to remind people of childhood when they played with their friends. And when the ultimate weapon was used, it took away countless lives. We can go out as quick as we come in. I might be overthinking it but I do believe that it's giving this message which is why I love it so much.

Ah, a new Truegreen7 video! Now I can sit back and relax, watching it...

[@PKmaster12]

For me the best things are (and please remember, this is all in my opinion): Gen 1: The games that started it all, although they feel really outdated compared to the rest of the games, they’re still pretty good. Gen 2: Multi regional travel, and following Pokémon were great additions. I also love how the region managed to feel like a direct sequel to Gen 1 despite being completely different games. Gen 3: I honestly can’t find much to say about Gen 3 that other games don’t have. I guess Soaring was really unique and fun, but it’s pretty much all I can think of. This doesn’t mean the Gen 3 games were bad AT ALL, in fact it’s one of my favorite regions, but I just don’t think it has much to set it apart from the others. Gen 4: Best champion in the series, and the evolutions it added to Pokémon were amazing. I also think it’s tied with gen 5 for the greatest Pokémon designs in the series. I also really loved the lore for the legendaries and mythicals of the region. Gen 5: (I have a lot to say about Gen 5, so I’ll try to condense it) Easily best story and best overall music. The region felt amazing to explore, and it had some of the best post-game content in the series. And the difficulty setting was something that should’ve been brought back. (Also Moving sprites > 3D models) Gen 6: Although I liked the moving sprites better than 3D models, the jump to 3D was a great change to the series. Not to mention the games are also just really pretty. The backstory of the region was also great and added a lot of depth to the theme of the game as a whole. Mega evolutions were also an amazing addition. Gen 7: I love the overall feel, the traditions, and uniqueness of the region. I also really loved the characters and how they interact with each other. It was also great that they finally started making new dex entries for Pokémon instead of just recycling old ones. Gen 8: I love how the league felt like a grandiose sport that’s watched by the whole region. The wild area(s) get a lot of shit, but I really loved how immersive it felt to see Pokémon roaming around in the wild.

The best part about Sinnoh to me is it’s vibrancy (especially for a pre-3DS region). Gen 3 was my introduction to Pokémon, and let me just say that made Sinnoh look that much more colorful to my eyes. I was blown away by how saturated and bright a lot of the characters and landscapes were, how memorable and catchy most of the music was. I’ve heard some people argue that all the color makes the region and designs seem plastic and unnatural, but that’s part of it’s charm I’m my opinion.

Kanto-I found the lore here absolutely fascinating. It’s presented as part of the world rather than part of the plot, which is probably why it’s so fascinating. Piecing together your own vision based on what you learn about Team Rocket and Mewtwo really is quite thrilling, as it inspires the imagination in a way that doesn’t confine it. (I was incredibly sad about what happened to Cinnabar Island and Lavender Town as of the Johto era, though.) Johto-The setting is marvelous, and the mystical quality of the region is superb. Again with the lore being fascinating. I feel like the way you interact with the legendaries makes them come across as being more lively and with their own thoughts and opinions, which helps with immersion. The pacing felt incredibly relaxed, allowing for better immersion into the lore and the setting. That was very nice. Also, the introduction of things like Pokémon breeding and Shiny Pokémon was a lot of fun! (I was sad they left Kris out of the remakes; she was my favorite.) Hoenn-I’ll have to come back to this because it’s going to be rather lengthy. Sinnoh-Getting stuck in the environment was annoying, but I did really like how there was more to the natural setting than just water, grass, and rocks. The lore is also 10/10, and it has some of the best legendaries (story-wise) and locations. Unova-While you’re playing it, the locations can be pretty dynamic! I loved the seasons mechanic, and it was such a shame they abandoned it. The antagonists (specifically Ghetsis) are very memorable, and the main rivals (I include N in this group… as the primary rival, actually) have a good amount of personality that makes them stand out. Kalos-PokémonAmie was so much fun. I adored the opportunity to bond with my Torchic right off the bat. I enjoyed the Lumiose Museum, and the Trainer Customization was absolutely thrilling. I enjoyed the customization quite a bit. Mega Evolution is also a really good mechanic, and it was the first time where event Pokémon really became accessible and no longer frustratingly exclusive. Ditto re: trade evolutions. Alola-MAN did I love the story. I find it to actually be the most captivating in the entire core franchise, to be honest. The design of Team Skull is great, but once you really start getting into the plot, oh man… boy, do you really actually care about what’s going on, and it’s not so simple as “defeat the Team bad guy to stop them from harnessing legendary Pokémon” due to what Team Skull’s motivations are and what role they REALLY play in the story. I found that as far as characters go, they were the most realistic and that really makes them stand out and makes the audience care. Guzma’s character arc is one of the best in the series, in my opinion. Galar-I haven’t played this game, so officially I have no opinion on it. Hoenn-This region means a very great deal to me personally due to the context of its original release. The fact that you have a father in this game-a father who is proud of you-is so, so incredibly wonderful and really sets it apart from the rest of the franchise. The presence of two teams (and how they interacted with each other as well as the player) also makes it more interesting. The weather effects, Secret Bases, and overall environmental interaction is such a huge plus. Playing this game really makes just walking around all the different locations and environments very enjoyable; the museums and underwater portions really add to this. The introduction of Soaring really took it all to a whole new level, and I thought it was fantastic! This is the one region where I can find enjoyment in the postgame just in walking around the environment, because it has so much to offer. My favorite Pokémon is from this game, and most of the ones I liked to use in battle came from this region (though Krookodile and Mudsdale disrupted Flygon as better choices, and then Golisopod was an unexpectedly absolute beast). Golden Sun: The Lost Age is my favorite game of all time, but for a long time, Pokémon Sapphire Version was my favorite-and it is still a pretty close second to this day. I love this region, and the accessibility to all the legendaries (not just for this region, but in general) from the remakes really made it feel like the most inclusive experience. I absolutely love this region, and it will probably always be my favorite; I’ll have to stop there because I could literally spend hours writing about how much I love this region.

[@saltedpringle]

How could you forget the fact unova made tms reusable. It made me actually want to use them instead of hoarding them in my bag out of fear that I would never see them again.

[@scrittle]

TMs breaking made me think more critically for what pokémon could utilise a TM the most. For instance, if I had a focus blast TM, and I had to make a choice between giving it to my Togekiss or my Kadabra, the discarding nature made me think who to give it to specifically. (context: Pokémon Platinum Elite 4) Now that TMs are reusable, I could sweep the early game with the Return TM at the start of BW 2, and the same pattern persisted to later parts of the game where I could swap out TMs with ease, which gave me the feeling that I was cheating. I'm a guy who likes challenge and critical thinking, so this new feature kind of dumbed down the game for me personally.

Two things Kalos introduced that were great! Protagonists with goals other than champion or professor. Trevor and Tierno indicated that kids could have other aspirations in this world.

I totally get that Gen 5 has the best story, but I am soooo much more attached to the characters of Alola. Lily, Hau, Wicke, Lusamine, and Galdion are all just so fantastic and they made me pay more attention to the story than just the battles for the first time

Try play gen 5 black and white.

Did you know he wants the purloin back? Are you suuure you know? Let's just have him say it again and again and let's call that his personality, alright?

[@contraryshinysnivy]

@@buffmywifi3839 thats not his personality, he is annoying with that lines and people (especially haters) make it memes and ruined his character. Hes real personality, that he is dont care about becoming a champion, and a bit too much over protective, hes a good guy, cool also act tough. Hes theme is a good example to explain what character he is, a cool guy that only ruined by its own dialog. Not to mention, hes the only rival fight beside the main character against villain to the end compare to gen 1 till 4.

This is why I main Incineroar in Smash Ultimate. I had an amazing adventure with him in a region whose story is second only to Unova. Also, he punched out Ultra Necrozma with ease thanks to being a Dark type

Thanks for the video. I happy that your videos get better every time. 😁

Unova had the best plot. And it balanced perfectly with the gameplay. I could still have places to explore, while not being stopped every 5 feet for a horribly long cutscene.

[@ZRob23523]

I just realized that Unova is one of the most controversial and polar regions in the community, yet while its plot is all about unity and different sides coming together. Ironic.

[@m.w.4879]

This is pretty late, but I love your ability to see the good in every generation. I've been liking each generation less as more are made, but you've made me look at the later ones in a new, and better, light. Thanks for that!

"You have them hooked and can drain their money" Game Freak used Giga Drain! IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE!

You are a human and nostagia type. 4x damage You have the Hoarding ability, which forces you to buy every Pokemon game ever exist 1,5x damage Gamefreak has stab bonus from being greedy corporation type. 1,5x damage Gamefreak holds the Extra Copy charm, which forces player to pay double for one game. 2x damage You have to stay at home due to the pandemic. Harshly reduce evasiveness.

I can’t believe that you didn’t mention the removal of HMs, one of the main reasons older gens are harder to get into for me.

[@matthewfera2954]

I knew it was coming, but I got so much gratification when you mentioned the physical/special split. Such a big upgrade to me.

[@sukky0]

Ron: Alola had many alchemical references. So people who love to theorize can have fun. Toby & Lockstin: !!!YYYEEESSS!!

[@smolpeepee245]

My favourite part of Galar is how it looks aesthetically, and the character customization.

[@FRSentertainmentco.]

I’ve never felt the DLC should’ve been in the base version. The base feels complete. I played it and didn’t need anything more. I play that game the same way I’ve played every other Pokémon game, which means hundred of hours. Then the DLC came out and I managed to play even more (not that I’d stopped in the first place). It was a massive step up from a third version, half the price, with just as much content. Sure Emerald, Platnium, and the Ultras are great. But the DLC shines as an improvement over the third version. No longer forcing you to replay a slightly modified game with different Pokémon. You can now play a brand new area, with its own story, characters and Pokémon. It can either extend your original journey, or if you really want, make a new adventure entirely fresh. It allows options on how to play the game like no other expansion ever has. It’s incredibly enjoyable and I agree it’s a massive strength of Gen 8. (Plus I remember when the announced the Ultra and everyone said just do DLC. Well for once they listened, why the backlash?)

[@CallieCatGaming]

I know I'm probably the only one in the world that will say this: I LOVED the contests in the 3rd gen. I wish they would've redid this in the new gamers and made it more elaborate. I think it would've gone over better modern day. But I used to have a lot of fun playing the contests and even making the snacks for my PokeMon with berries. Just a fun little feature to add more to the game besides just the main story. They aren't required but just something to do, and I love things like that. Makes the game more charming.

[@robobot2805]

Ron: alright guys here’s every regions mistakes Gen 8 & 1: *nervous laughter*

[@rickw9291]

Wym, they all have faults

[@christopherschlegel6412]

Gen 6 & 7 are the worst imo. 6 I didn't like enough to remember anything besides a handful of pokemon. And 7 I only remember because how long of a slog it was with designs I mostly disliked (the story was good, just too slowly paced)

[@jafd239]

@@rickw9291 Probably means how Gen 8 has Dexit, and other things like how the story skips like 3 narrative beats, while Gen 1 has broken mechanics and lacks a real story outside of "beat gyms and anyone who stands in your way". That's my guess anyways hahaha
