this types of comments are so dumb when you can clearly know that they are also better in other things, this even gets broken by simply saying that they aren't as bugged as Gen 1/2 or when counting the DLCSWSH is pretty much the worst entry in almost every category across the board when compared to other mainline Pokemon games.
Even dumber than that is that no one opposed his plan...at all. You walk in on him talking to the Champion and he's like "Yeah man I'll help you after the tournament" and Rose goes "There's no time! We only have 1000 years!"
I liked that aspect of them, though. they had a purpose that wasn't crazy. though I guess BW2 did something similar but betterGen 2, they're just Team Rocket's leftovers. It feels really underwhelming when the villains' main goal is... To get the villain from the last game to notice them.
Team Galactic would be my 4th least favorite.I find gen 2 Team Rocket to be inoffensive enough. No real reason why, but it never bothered me. Also surprised Team Galactic didn't get more votes, despite me liking it.
Yeah they're Aqua and Magma but I feel like it works better, if you assume creating that new universe would work out the way they expect it to. There's just no way expanding the land or the oceans makes sense though lolTeam Galactic would be my 4th least favorite.
They're literally just Team Aqua/Magma with the serial numbers filed off.

I find Gen 2 to be compelling because of how pathetic they are. They're the last whimper of a dying criminal organization that once held this area in a vicegrip able to openly take siege on the HQ of global tech company without any forethought and with no larger goal in mind other than continued power and control. They're putting all their resources and effort into one great big master plan of calling their old boss for help. What makes it even better and sadder is that going by the Celebi event, it almost would have worked.Gen 2, 6, and 8 have the worst villains for different reasons.

Gen 6 pisses me off with how Lysandre is portrayed as a sympathetic character. His plan is literally "kill all poor people so the rich can have all the resources for themselves". There is nothing relatable about that.
Gen 8's villains are completely unfinished. It's so obvious that everything related to the Darkest Day was shoved into the story at the last moment. Rose is completely incoherent and has no reason to even fight you at the end.
What does Galactic have to do with the other two at all? They're end goal is literally the destruction and recreation of the universe without emotion. The other two are just eco terrorists fighting over human advancement or ecological preservation.Team Galactic would be my 4th least favorite.

Galactic blew up a lake, that grabs your attention. The experiments they perform on the captured Uxie, Azelf and Mesprit are genuinely creepy as well. The Admins stand out since they do have some surprisingly strong pokemon for when you fight them (That Purugly comes to mind). The only really negative is Cyrus can be a little bland? That's partially due to his emotionless persona he has which is more of a mixed response. Add to that they have some of the best songs in the entire series and it's fair to see how people like them.
(BDSP, do not mess up this soundtrack).
Almost all of Plasma knows that their actually the villain team. The reformed version that shows up in two is made up of almost entirely of low level grunts or members that had a change of heart.Team Plasma is stupid entirely because of Ghetsis.
Like sure, "we need to destroy the world today so it doesn't get destroyed in 1,000 years" is clown logic, but Team Plasma relies on the notion that everyone including Team Plasma themselves are too stupid to realizing that Ghetsis is having them on. He just ruins absolutely any semblance of nuance in that story.
It's gonna be the USUM version, since we have seen the protagonist
Yeah I agree, but they have the "destroy the world" thing people usually don't like about other games, so I was expecting at least a few more mentions. Not a bad thing though!
False: music, Pokémon and character designs, QoL, competitive mode, and more are all great aspects of SWSH which can easily beat other games in the series. And with the DLCs you get 2 of the best locations too.Does pokemon SW/SH have the worst...?
The answer is always yes.
it's character design is better than Gen 6Does pokemon SW/SH have the worst...?
The answer is always yes.
He's technically head of the villain team, only SwSh's villain team isn't a villain team but just a fanclub that got mildly out of hand.
a lot about Sword and Shield reeks of a game that was rebooted mid-development.. But side-showing the main plot until the last possible second -- who the heck decides this is good?
Haha, I guess I blocked this from my memory because I burst out laughing all over again.
Aw man, I had forgotten just how lame and silly that whole exchange was. Why the hell couldn't Rose wait a single day, Jesus.
And to top it all off it was done via still images rather than an actual cinematic. Though at least it was on screen that time, and not like the other half of the plot.
"Look around us, Leon! Look at the Galar region stretched out before us. And know that the energy required to keep this brilliant, glittering world alive will be exhausted a millennium from now! The people of Galar today will no longer even exist. What Galar wants today hardly matters!" "The future is more important than just one day! We must act as quickly as we possibly can! We must take action in order to avert tragedy! So that all can look forward to a better future!"
What does this game do better than previous pokemon games? The narrative is objectively the worst in the series, the game has no sense of discovery and exploration and needed two really bare-bone dlc to expand on the hilariously bad and repetitive "Wild Area" with some of the worst pop-in and lag a person will ever experience.this types of comments are so dumb when you can clearly know that they are also better in other things, this even gets broken by simply saying that they aren't as bugged as Gen 1/2 or when counting the DLC
I think you're meant to assume that after getting walloped by the wolves in the lore, it just reverted into that egg-like state you see the remnants of.was it ever explained how Rose was even able to capture and contain eternatus?
I got the 8th badge and never went back because the game is so bad and apparently Victory Road isn't even a thing anymore? Like, I don't think I, as a character, did anything meaningful until that point and I was already on the last badge! Not to mention the joke that the 8th gym is.The funniest part of this thread is barely anyone is reciting the villain team name.
Was there any team? I still don't remember as I'm typing this. God the antagonists in SwSh were so forgettable.
There's nothing barebones about the DLC, and the base game still had more content than gen 1, 3 and 6 not counting third versions or remakes. Dynamax is the best gimmick so far and I have played every game too. Funny how opinions work!What does this game do better than previous pokemon games?

Team Yell is hilariously bad. The end-game is non-existent in the base game. The world design only works when you're moving forward and Dynamaxing is arguably the worst gimmick so far.
The game has some banger music however.
You can say my comment is stupid all you want but I've played every single mainline pokemon game and in my opinion SWSH is the weakest game in the entire franchise.
It's so weird because up until that point every main antagonist was improved in some way by their respective re-releases, or at the very least received some more info about their character. Lusamine is the only one who got... objectively worse.It's Gen 8 far and away. But this thread has reminded me of how bad USUM fucked up Lusamine and it just makes my blood boil.
It's just a what if scenario, which is why I don't understand the anger towards it. I even agree that it's not as good, but the original is still there and is still just as canon as it was on release. We got to see a side of Lusamine that wasn't taken over by the toxins of Nihilego, which also confirmed she was still a very flawed person even without them, just not as bad. It kinda completes the picture in a different way than other third versions did before. The problem was with other elements of the story not fitting with one another.It's so weird because up until that point every main antagonist was improved in some way by their respective re-releases, or at the very least received some more info about their character.
