I'm not a hater of the 4th generation, I just lament the fact that each "new" entry in the series is simply the same tired skeletop with some new flesh around and a few behind-the-scenes gameplay tweaks that, while they may tweak the metagame and affect the competitive battling aspect of pokemon, do nothing to vary or innovate the fundamental formula that has been tiredly recycled since the mid-90's.

It's less tiresome if you only buy one every five years or so. It's what I do!

Yeah, I'm currently on Poke-hiatus. I put about 60 hours into Pearl when it came out (just enough to beat the Elite 4 and get halfway through the extra islands area) and then called it quits until I felt really compelled to purchase a new Pokemon game.

Dude! That is exactly what I did! We have very similar approaches to Pokemon, it seems.

Here's hoping the post-Elite 4 game is more interesting in Gen 5.
