they'll be forgotten, just like any game that's not gen 1-5.

Completely forgotten, just like every gen aside from 1 and 7.

An unfortunate case of why gamefreak is not a good fit to be making Pokemon games.

And also heaven for people who like Kieran and Carmine I guess

Team Star was low tier villainy and they were really tranny jannies all along.

It was a good Pokemon game even with its problems.

pokefags will cope about how they only had to wait 2(TWO) years for an update that actually made the game playable and how it only costed 500 dollars

Best Pokemon games since Gen 3

Gen 9 was absolutely better than Gen 6, 7, and 8.

you perpetually seething and starting genwars over gen 6+ suggests otherwise

Along with Arceus they will be remembered as a games that tried something "new" (although It mostly felt that they tried to evolve what they tried with SM , mechanic and story wise) and the finale is memorable enough to stay in people memory.
It got lucky SwSh on the other hand doesn't have the pull of the first Game that Kanto, DP, BW and XY got nor the tried something different that Johto, BW , SM and SV/Arceus did

Slop with an ugly world, ugly Pokemon, ugly characters, a dead online, embarrassing performance in the Switch, and no replayable end game features.

What a shitshow. Just an objectively terrible games. I'm playing the 'improved' version on Switch 2 and it's still a damn slog.

It just beats you over the head with unskippable cutscenes and dialog boxes. EVERYTHING takes 10 times longer than it should.
I even hate trainer battles now. They're so easy I know I'm going to win, but I still have to:
>wait for Pokemon to load
>wait for trainer close up and dialog box
>wait to throw out pokemon
>wait for inevitable 'intimidate lowers attack' box
>GREAT, now I can select my move! Click A button twice!
>wait for opponent move
>wait for opponent move cut scene
>wait for stat drop notification
>my turn!
>wait for my move animation
>random pause while opponents pokemon de-loads
>wait for close up on NPC and dialog box
>wait for camera to reset
>for some reason off the fucking bike, so need to spawn that again

This slog is in every aspect of this game. Nothing is snappy. Nothing is responsive. It's constant waiting around and mashing A to just move on.
Hell, just trying to traverse the map is a chore because I keep stepping on lvl 5 bug pokemon, which loads a battle and see above.
You could legit beat 3+ gyms in Red version before getting out of the damn school tutorial in Scarlet.

But whatever, I beat the story, time to roam around and have 'fun.'
First, I want to reset the EV's on my current team but...
>need berries
>only found randomly on the map or buy from an auction
>only 7% chance of appearing at a random quantity at a random price
>need to reset the Switch's clock, reload, check again
>A berry is there!
>sit through auction cutscene with 20+ unskippable dialog boxes
>or buy the $25 DLC and play a shit mini game repeatedly
These new games are just slogs from beginning to end, and that's not even touching on how terrible the stories/characters are.

I'm out (again). Going to go back to playing Gold version

As cool as this looks, it's not a Pocket Monster. It's a Sentai/Robot design, not a monster.

I think that depends almost entirely on how many of the changes that they made end up sticking in future main series games.

It'll either be
>"remember that time when they screwed around and let you do this thing for a game"
or
>"remember when SV introduced this thing for the first time, it was so revolutionary"
