I'm assuming VI is X and Y? To be honest, I don't really like them much, and haven't finished them. A big part of this could just be my current mental state or "growing out of it", though. I think some of the changes they made made it annoyingly "casual" and stuff... Though I've not looked into the mechanics, but the friendship thing or whatever it was just... Annoyed me.
I do like the fact that they didn't add many new Pokemon though, I REALLY like that. And the battles are really pretty and the animations are nice and stuff! But that leads me into another problem... It's just so SLOW. If I remember rightly, it took quite a while to load up battles. And the animations (which I want to watch because they are very nice) just take ages to complete. Because of that I just put the game down and decided it isn't worth wasting time with... Sigh.
I should pick the game back up, and give it another go. Or make my own mon game or something.
Yeah, it is definitely true that they added some pointless things. But that's true of practically every generation. The nice thing is you can basically choose to either ignore the potentially-helpful-but-'casual' things for challenge or nostalgia or whatever reason or use them as you see fit. It allows for more variability in how you want to play the game, which I like. One nice thing about Pokemon games in general, really, is that you can always tweak the difficulty to whatever you want by adding restrictions (Nuzlocke, etc.). The animation time is perhaps a problem, but I haven't had any issues with lag or loading times except for Horde Battles (though that might be partly because I'm not using the 3D).
Regardless, you should make your own mon game since Miasmon (or Beast Signer or whatever variation thereof) doesn't appear to be coming out any time soon. I would play it.
Favourite Pokemon generation poll. Because why the hell not.
I like Gen 3 most, probably because it's the one I had most and had during my childhood. But objectively I think 2 is best. Maybe. Modern ones aren't really "Good" to be honest, apart from HeartGold and SoulSilver.
EDIT: Apparently Gen VI exists! Shows how much attention I pay! :D
When you press CTRL+SHIFT+J (Chrome) or CTRL+SHIFT+K (Firefox), are there any errors when you click the button? And in the network panel, are there any errors there, either?
Also, when you friend or unfriend someone, the other person gets a notification, unless you friend them and unfriend them before they see the first one.
Okay, here is the deal. If 20 people say they would use this site, I will create a few sample threads about a variety of topics in order to "get it started" and maintain the site.
Would you mind giving more feedback on ways the colours hurt? And offer suggestions on how they can be improved? Hell, I could even give you the CSS file and let you fix it yourself if it's such a big problem.
I am slowly editing colours to make them slightly better, particularly links, but it 's a slow, creative process.
I remember sending you a detailed PM on Fig Hunter with what I found wrong with each and every colour, months ago, but I've lost that it seems.
I wouldn't mind having a copy of the CSS so I can mess around with colour combinations in some form of graphical editor thingy thing, and see what looks good and what doesn't, though.
