Gen 1 had the worst Pokémon, in my opinion

Fixed that for you.

A lot of the gen 1/2 mons really are just incredibly uninspired and boring. Take off the nostalgia goggles and you can see that.

you have to take into account that the OP was -5 years old when Gen one was a thing, by the time he was old enough to walk/talk/post on the internet, the concept of a pokemon which must make allowances to be male/female do not make sense to him because when he was born the Nintendo DS and PSP were on the Horizon, the concept of a game being limited by a 4mhz processor is hard to take into account when you have something close to a portable PS2 available by the time he can talk.

This makes me feel old to say, but I must now understand why people would sigh and roll their heads when classic films are criticized by people on youtube in 2018

I love how you just assumed I have no nostalgia towards the first generation because of my age. Well, as a kid I was given whatever my older brother stopped using. My favourite childhood movie is The Lion King, and I wasn't even born when that released. I had a Game Boy with Pokémon Blue. Then I had a Game Boy Advance with Pokémon Emerald and LeafGreen. I had never touched a DS before 2011.
