Having multiple rivals with distinct personalities was fresh and new. I know this is probably a very unpopular opinion, but hear me out. Some of my favorite pieces from the soundtrack are the legendary Pokemon theme, the Elite Four theme, and N's battle theme. I love how experimental they got with the cave themes, the pitch descending every time you went down a floor, giving you an apprehensive, eerie sense of dread.

As a kid, sometimes I would stop progressing in the game just to listen to whatever theme was playing. This may be more of a personal taste thing, but I loved the music from B/W. Some of my favorites are Hydreigon, Cryogonal, Zoroark, Chandelure, and Bisharp. They really went all-out! And yes, as I said, not all of the new designs were great, but I think that goes for every generation.

I missed the older Pokemon too! But I was also a huge fan of the fresh, completely new lineup of over one hundred new Pokemon. I understand why people were put off by the fact that older Pokemon weren't available until the postgame. I personally have no complaints about the animations-sure, they were rudimentary, but they were certainly an improvement upon previous sprites, and how much do you expect? In addition, the "detached sprite segments" issue is only noticeable if the sprites are blown up on a large screen, and B/W is meant to be played on a DS, where they look great. I have a soft spot for the pixel art stage of the Pokemon games, so it's no surprise I loved these! I know some people complain that they're clunky and poorly animated, with the pixel art leaving different sprite sections strangely detached from one another. However, I strongly believe they were a high point in the Pokemon franchise. TL DR: B/W were not well-liked when they were first released, and I know there are still people who don't like them. And it makes me really happy to see that after so long, more of the Pokemon fandom appears to have developed a positive opinion of the games. It doesn't change the fact that I loved B/W when I was six and still do. I won't pretend nostalgia has nothing to do with this, but I think it's unrealistic to say nostalgia doesn't affect our opinions. What was so controversial? Yes, there were Pokemon based on food and garbage-how was that different from the Exeggcute and Grimer lines?ī/W were my introduction to the Pokemon games, and to this day they are my favorites. I understood that some of these designs were rather silly, but I didn't understand the passionate hatred they inspired. The most commonly despised were the Vanillish and Trubbish lines, but almost the entire new lineup was mocked at some point. People routinely complained about the new Pokemon designs. B/W were highly experimental, that much is indisputable, and the risks the games took were once extremely controversial. I don't really think this is a hot take now-people seem to be appreciating Black and White more and more as time passes-but I remember B/W getting a lot of flak when it came out.

Note that I say a high point, because I don't believe the Pokemon franchise has only had one high point.
