I've pretty much been with gen 5 from the start. My favorite pokemon from this gen was Snivy, Reuniclus, and Leipard starting off. Leipard quickly went out the window though. It's still cool it just never really stuck out as a pokemon I'd like to have on my team. (Probably because to me, IT SUCKS!) Going into Black/white for a second, I have to say that if there's anything I could bash gen 5 for, it's the lackluster black/white. I personally don't have a problem with the games. I liked team plasmas ideas (It eventually led to me coming up with my own edited nuzlocke challenge.) and liked N. It's just that apart from remembering when I captured a relaxed natured magic guard Solosis on my first capture (Which I freaking loved.) And the Victini I took with me through my second Playthrough (The release that didn't have V-create), I don't really have very many memories with Black and White.
When Pokémon Conquest came out I freakin loved it. It looked so cool. It was Fire Emblem, but with pokemon. I had to get my hands on it. Initially, it was everything I hoped for. I got really into it for a time. Then when the storyline ended and the side stories began, I stopped playing it and even reset it a few times. I did not enjoy going through the extra storys and the story itself, after playing it for the third time just felt to short. I'm really REALLY hoping Game Freak makes a sequel with a bigger storyline, a more in depth battle system, more pokemon, and more moves. It by far has the best potential of any pokemon spin off. Colosseum and XD included.
When Black2/white2 was announced, I didn't really care. The sequel aspect didn't really appeal to me. I don't even remember when I got White 2. Going into the game though, I FREAKIN LOVE IT! I love the rival. Apart from silver he's got the most development to me. The story was meh to me. The pokemon..... oh the pokemon. There were so many to choose from. I also made quite a few memories from it too. The two that pop off the top my head are when I first found out that audino gives a crap ton of exp making training a breeze and essentially making the game way to easy and one shotting Iris' entire team with my level 65 haxorus. After those two immediate memories, there was white tree hollow. Going through that was a really fun if not easy time. The battle frontier was fun and all but I really liked white tree hollow. That's what game freak was missing in terms of end game content. A big goal you can accomplish with your ingame team and doesn't hax you to death. HeartGold was by far my most favorite pokemon game...... right up to White 2 which is currently my most favorite pokemon game.
In conclusion, I enjoyed gen 5. White 2 and Conquest were both really good times for me. As of now my current favorite gen 5 pokemon are Reuniclus, Keldeo, and Dewott. I used Oshawott like it was nobodies business in white 2. Sinvy is cool and all but it just didn't do it for me in the end. Meanwhile Dewott can go all Niitoryuu on you. (2 Sword style) Team plasma Had some interesting ideas. (Even if they do come off as a little cheesy but this is from the outside looking in perspective.) Finally, White 2 is my all time favorite Pokemon game. However, Black/White come off as a bit bland to me and the story, while interesting, doesn't really matter to me. 8.5/10
