Gen. 4's battle animation

Some of them look nice, but a wide variety of them just look boring. Some of them are even more boring than they were in previous generations. But it's tolerable, and it doesn't really distract from the game too badly because like hell I play Pokemon for it's graphics. 
I still wish they could be a little less lazy about the placement of the animations, such as when you're fighting a Skuntank and it's Flamethrower isn't coming from anywhere near it's entire body. Since there's nearly 450 Pokemon and this could be hard to do for all of them, it's kind of understandable, but it's still distracting. Especially since Skuntank with Flamethrower are quite common when fighting Galactic goons.

Too many chocolates
Meh. It was pretty good, no different from the others, excet the attacks were coller.
I have this beef with all the console pokemon games. I think the attack animations are so horrible it detracts me from even playing them.
Basically... you see the pokemon do the attack... and then the screen switches to the other pokemon being hit... you never actually see the execution and the result on the same frame, which makes me want to twitch, especially when a pokemon punches or kicks or otherwise physically attacks the opposing poke, and all you see is... oh.. i dunno, a poltergeist or something, or a blast of wind (presumably from the attack) magically hit the other pokemon, even though yours never even came within 10 feet of it. Its as if all physical or direct contact attacks become.. like... psychic or flying attacks... LAME. Fix it GF.
