/img/ - Aesthetics & Images

>favourite region
i like unova most. aesthetically, it's okay… but gen 5 has my favourite writing in the series. the narrative and characters make the region feel so alive, and i ended up caring so deeply about it, as silly as the story is. so i have a lasting, strong emotional attachment to it!

>favourite pokemon
it might seem like a random pick, but i completely adore ninjask. its design is perfect for me: i like pokemons origins as being inspired by bug collecting, so a very cicada like design is perfectly "pokemon" to me. it also has a cool evolutionary gimmick, with shedinja also being a really cool pokemon.

i love how animal-like and not immediately cute it is, but it still has this plucky loyal heroic sense of personality to me. (and it is so cute!!)

speed boost and its high attack make it strong but not overpowered or "safe", which is more exciting for me to play. ninjask!!!!

ghost types always have the coolest pokedex entries, don't they…

>favourite trainer?
this is my bias as an obsessive image collector, but dawn gets THE coolest fanart. the dpp legendaries and lore are really cool and operates on this overarching mythological/creation myth scale. it leaves a lot of room for artists to step in and explore this stuff.

ecruteak city's theme is lodged somewhere permanently in my heart… i will always love pkmn crystal. it's the game i have that real nostalgic bond with. even though i was super into pokemon before it came out, it connected with me so much more deeply… because you got to play as a girl. but also because of the beauty of the gentle pastels used for the game, the beautiful spritework. and there's nothing like these gentle, strange, deeply nostalgic songs.

noooo an electric pokemon, in the rain, by the sea, is she gonna be ok?
>>7544
imagine sitting in bird saliva

>>7550
don't worry, ampharos is a self-insulating, seasoned beach-goer. as for the pelipper saliva… well, trainers are unusual people.

I really love fokko. It's an unhealthy obsession, but it's so cute!

- favourite region?
>Sinnoh or Johto
Both are comfy places with nice soundtrack. SoulSilver was my first and the most played game
and I adored it. I got so many memories. Same with Platinum.

>Togekiss
Always been a reliable Pokemon for me both ingame and competitive. I will never forget what a joke the ghost gym was in SoulSilver when I had the gift Togepi with Extrasensory, literally solo'd that gym with the baby Pokemon. And the paraflinch shenanigans in competitive were funny as fuck. I also like Scizor for same reason.

Some of my fav Pokemon here like Gardevoir, Clefable, Mawile and Sylveon. I like Ghost and Steel too.

>Cynthia
Beautiful and powerful. I like her.
- favourite song?
I got a lot of Pokemon songs I like but I guess Zinnia's theme is my current favorite even though she was a bitch and I don't really like gen 6 games and onwards.

Other songs I like

>Iris champion theme (B2/W2)
>National park theme (HG/SS)
>Frontier brain theme (HG/SS)
>Red's/Lance's theme (HG/SS)
>Kanto Gym trainer theme (HG/SS)
>Cynthia piano (Platinum)
>N battle theme (B/W and the normal one, not the final battle/champion version)

I quit Pokemon after playing Sun. UltraSun didn't seem worth bying and Sword/Shield honestly seem terrible games and not worth bying Switch over. I guess Pokemon isn't for me anymore. I'm really not into the direction the Pokemon designs are going, there is literally maybe handful Gen 8 Pokemon I really liked. Don't like the DLC bullshit either and dex cut was really bad as well. My fav games are SoulSilver, Platinum, White and White 2. Hoenn games were pretty gud too (the original ones, not the remakes, they were bad).

I really wish I could experience playing SoulSilver and Platinum for the first time again, those were magical times for me. Being hyped for Black and White games and being keen for leaks was fun times as well. And at the time I felt B/W was so kino in terms of story. I feel like it all went downhill so badly after gen 6. Y was the last Pokemon game I enjoyed.

Still play these games all the time. Crystal Clear might be my favorite romhack.

i do love the ranger games even if i'm not good at them.

I genuinely like the new games

>>10448
Why though?

>>10449
Yeah the graphics are subpar and the features are low effort compared to the old games, but it's still the same game. I like exploring new regions and getting new pokemon to have adventures with. I like getting immersed in the dumb little stories too.

>>10450
They're just poorly made enough that hey don't feel comfy to me but you do you

>>10451
I guess I just have low standards, but pokemon always feels comfy to me. The main difference for me between old games and new games is I could spend a long time enjoying the postgame of older ones, where the new ones I'm basically done after I finish the main quest.

>>10451
i agree here. the new games have been really boring.
>>10452
no disrespect to anyone who enjoys the new games at all of course, i just can't get into them. i miss postgame.
