In my opinion, the Pokémon games with the worst stories are RSE (Aqua/Magma's motivation is poorly explained and stupid) and XY (huge pacing problems, Flare feels really shoehorned and pretty nonthreatening aside from spoiler Lysandre). Especially RSE.
Don't get me wrong, though- aside from the original BW, I don't think any of the Pokémon games had a particularly good plot (B2W2 are better than the others, like BW, but still a noticeable drop in quality from their predecessors)...
XY Major Spoiler Alert! I actually hated the ending to XY. It just ended too... Easily. The main thing that bugs me is Floette returning to AZ. While that's sweet, it feels hollow since we never saw AZ do anything to earn it, and I think the ending could have been much more powerful if AZ had been able to move on happily without Floette.
In Emerald the Magma/Aqua thing makes a lot more sense because they distributed their events in a better way... Instead of having team Aqua causing a volcano eruption to expand the sea (!) or having team Magma in a seaside hideout.
Or shoving Groudon in an underwater cave.
Though, they aren't exactly real "villanous" teams. They are just extremist environmentalists doing what they think will improve the life in Hoenn.
It gets deep when you realize Hoenn is literally the Yin Yang, and their actions threaten with destroying its balance. Well, Maybe not really deep. But it's still a nice touch.
Just 2 years ago, Game Freak made an unprecedented move for the Pokemon series, instead of making a third version like they usually did for Black and White, they made sequels Black 2 and White 2. Instead of having the same game as the first two with an edited plot to incorporate the third mascot, it took place in the same region but had a new storyline that took place after the original, new protagonists, new areas, and an expanded Unova Dex to include past gen Pokemon. Would you like to see more sequels? If so, to what games? If not, what do you think they should do instead? Discuss.
Of course, why not. What I like to see is Pokemon-Emerald remake, he** why not every Pokemon franchise ever made!!!

@Morphbug The offical name for extremist Environmentalists like that is Eco-Terrorists
Anyway While RSE has the most potential wasted in a pokemon game(Hopefully will be fixed with these remakes) it was not the worst.
Worst to Best
X/Y(nothing that haven't been said before in this thread)
GSC/SSHG(Honestly did nothing for the story and gave Ho-oH more attention then they did with lugia in my opinion)
RB/LGFR(Its the beginning but it was a basic story, did nothing to expand mewtwo or mew story)
RSE(Alot of potential wasted in the story line, Reggies were not explained until gen 4, Deoxys, Jirachi & the Eon Twins were only explained in the anime which is upsetting for someone who has mixed feeling about the anime)
BW/BW2(The story was almost perfect but they messed it up with Not explaining N and his lore further and im still pissed i never knew what happened to the shadow triad)
DPP(Team Plasma was a fairly basic team but the Lore was amazing, All the legendaries from Gen 4 & some from other gens were explained enough, Good pacing in my opinion and the pokemon were so diverse....i dont understand why these games get so much hate tho)

I'm personally hoping they do something like this for gen 6. Sequels to X and Y would be way better than another third version, and even more so if they finally go one step further still and add new Pokemon species to them. Cause come on, that's what the third games have all been building up to, isn't it? The first ones had minor optional new features and graphics upgrades. Then we got new storylines. New gym leaders and elite four members and champions. New Pokemon forms (including what were basically new cover legendaries). And now, even the remakes are getting new Mega Evos.
Yeah, I'm hoping for something like X and Y 2 (or maybe W and Z versions) with new Pokemon species as well, maybe with the explanation that a bunch of them went extinct before the plot of X and Y (the war in the backstory) and you're now trading them forward in time.
A SEQUEL TO POKEMON PLATINUM NEEDS TO HAPPEN NOW!!! I WANT THE SAME EXACT PEOPLE WITHIN GAMEFREAK WHO CREATED THE AMAZING POKEMON PLATINUM TO MAKE A SEQUEL FOR THAT GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I actually prefer vague stories if done right. Not to say every Pokemon game does it right, but I still feel they're better because they're vague. Most of these stories would be stupid without the little touches and not having every detail shoved in your face all the time.
