I still like gen 5 specially the region it comes in, but in a way its designs continued a downward spiral that gen 4 started, that's why some people will always hate those games. For my money they're the last Pokemon games worth paying any attention to.

>Come back when gen 1 has a design on par with something like Metagross or Darmanitan.
Scyther destroys. Compare him to a potato shaped lump like Salamence or a scolioses-ridden awkward flat lizard thing with flippers like Groudon, which are supposed to be cool ones. At least pick actually cool looking gen 3-5 pokes like Aggron, Abomasnow or Haxorus.
