Kill Your Babies!: Kill (Don't Faint) the Pokemon Games!
-
For the second time, we're tackling a franchise. Let's decide which Pokemon game is the best!
As always, just in case there are new players, here are the rules:
Rule #1: When you make a kill, give your reason why you are killing. Just taking it out isn't all that inspiring. Whether you truly dislike it, you strike out of revenge, you feel that there are other important titles that should have made it, or you have legitimate critiques, explaining your kill is necessary to validate its death. Yes, even to those of you who kill because they're good (Because that makes sense)
Rule #2: Please keep the updated list for the benefit of other players. Cross through your kill to identify what's been chosen.
Rule #3: You may kill another game after only four other people have made a kill OR if 12 hours have passed from the last overall kill (not necessarily your own). This should be plenty of time for others to get involved.
Rule #4: If you fail to give a reason, make a 2nd kill without allowing the time to pass/proper amount of players a turn, or if there is an unforeseen issue up for potential review, your kill may not be recognized. This rule is subjective to the situation and hopefully will not be implemented.
Rule #5: Per normal, we will have a straw poll for the final two. Please vote for the one you want to win, not lose.
Let me know if you have any questions. Your kills are your own, so be ruthless, uncompromising, and most importantly:
HAVE FUN!!!

Pokemon GoTerrible launch, filled with microtransactions, and hardly any different than Ingress (which is what the company made previously). More like... Pokemon NO.
Also, Pokemon Duel came out not too long ago on mobile and isn't on this list. It's also not great so maybe I shouldn't bother mentioning it.

Pokemon PicrossDiamond was so boring and uninteresting that it basically killed my interest in the entire series until I bought X on nothing but a whim and it revitalized my enjoyment of the series.

Good lord there's been a lot of Pokemon games.

Pokemon Battle TrozeiI feel like this list could immediately be narrowed down to the first six currently on it (maybe with a few exceptions), but we can't do that in one step. Nothing against Pokemon Battle Trozei, but its position as the last on the list means it's an early victim of the whittling process
