The Unpopular Opinions thread

[-Apples-]

I can agree that Gen I had too much focus in Pokémon. At least Ocarina of Time isn’t getting all the focus for Zelda (despite a GameCube port and a 3DS port). But Game Freak sure loves throwing Gen I Pokémon everywhere (and Gen VII if you think about how much Gen VII made it into Sword and Shield).

I also agree that Raymond’s popularity ruined him for me. The fact that one player even spent $900 to buy Raymond makes it worse. Most I spent on a single item was $800, and it was on the Lego Millennium Falcon (the model I bought was the world’s largest Lego set). You can buy two Nintendo Switch consoles and still have a lot of money at that price.

I like gen VII but I agree too much of that gen also went into it (mimikyu’s a favorite but Cursola/Polteageist should’ve been the focus of Allisters gym).

I posted this in another thread, but I think it belongs here too:

Lin-Manuel Miranda is a talented writer, but he is my least favourite actor in all of Hamilton's original cast! I really don't care for his style of talk-singing and acting.

The new Pokemon games suck and aren't worth the money at all, although not sure if that's unpopular or not...

I’d say that my opinion of chesnaught being the best starter is WAY more unpopular than your opinion. As for that, while I did like SwSh it definitely was a step down from gen VII. I haven’t really played the gen IV games but know that’s the popular consensus on the best generation. I’m kinda afraid to go into it because I’m used to later gen mechanics plus I’ve heard that saving times are atrocious

Sadly SwSh sold well so clearly it is an unpopular opinion.

Daisy is better than Peach and Rosalina combined. Not that serious, I know.

I believe it will become the best selling Pokémon game since Gold/Silver (or even best selling Pokémon game since Red/Blue).

Ever since Ruby/Sapphire came out, each main series Pokémon game (without the help of the third game) could never break the 20 million threshold, with Diamond/Pearl being the best selling game and Black/White being the worst. Even the 3DS games are substandard due to gamers’ attitudes on frame rate and how poorly the 3DS sold in respect to other handhelds. But now that Pokémon is now onto the home console, Sword/Shield could break the 20 million threshold.
