Despite this, I'm going to step up and say: enough. The Pokémon series wore out its welcome long ago, and continues to make the same game design mistakes. These pratfalls bog down a potentially engrossing game, if only substantive additions were made to the old formula. Even Square-Enix moved away from the ATB system eventually. All things considered, Pokémon is oftentimes said to be a children's game, and maybe that's where I've made my mistake with this review."
Pokemon Black and White are next in line for a remake, but they may encounter an issue when accounting for one unique aspect of Gen 5.
The only issue they'll be encountering is the laziness and incompetence of whatever dev is remaking. Be it GF themselves or the dev behind DP remakes.
There isn't enough to improve in Pokémon Black and White to justify remaking it. Instead, Game Freak should make a port of these beloved games.
They did this with diamond and pearl and those are the worst pokémon games to date because it's worse than the ds counterparts
I'd rather they combine this and the sequel as one game, do it so the post game content is Black and White 2.
While I think B&W 2 were good we should have still gotten Pokemon Grey, some people liked holding on for a more complete beefy package compared to the originals.
Pokemon Black and White brought the franchise quality of life upgrades, ambitious narrative ideas, and some of the worst designs in the series.
