> I think that can be somewhat attributed to quite a well thought-out show bible, as well as Hasbro realizing that this generation was getting a better reputation than previous ones.
yeah, a strong base really helps at anytime. I wish that Hasbro didn´t only realize that this gen gets a better reputation. They could apply that for gen 5 in one go and milk much more money and reputation, that trend shouldn´t simply die with gen 4 alone but...eh, we´ll see if the corporate heads actually care about that reputation over the years...

> but nostalgia is such a powerful sentiment that it often submerges the idea of anything new being good.
considering that I have seen endless discussions of gen wars among Pokemon fans, that exercise comes as nothing new to my eyes. It reaffirms that we are doomed to repeat the same cycles and steps like everything else. Wait a couple of years until they get nostalgic about the latest seasons...

> I still think the show went slightly in the wrong direction, but it made the best out of it anyway, and did a really good job of it to boot. 
it cannot please everyone I guess and I didn´t like all the episodes but I was surprised by the amount of quality put after such a long lifetime and even surpass a few older seasons at times. It ended up nicely (which is why I am relieved with gen 4 overall) and can stand on its own so from there, the subjective views can vary in diverse ways. 
The only clear conclusion that I have towards the show is that season 3 was the worst because of its rushed nature but as for the rest, I could like almost the rest of the seasons indifferently according to the coffee that I take each morning....so yeah, that´s a good sign.

> I was also toying with the idea of saving all the images posted in the thread.
nicely done. About toying with the inclusion of the images, what´s preventing you from doing it? Go for it if you want.

> I definitely want to see at least the beginning of what they do next, good or bad.
well, get ready for the rollercoaster of a thing called Pony Life. Then gen 5 is like the biggest mystery for us now. It can be anything really despite the leaked content. 

> If it turns out that I stick around for all of the next generation, I'll be a little surprised
we are all surprised really. Whenever you want, you know that you have an option over here. For now, this thread has reached the bump limit so...anything else will be discussed over there.

those trips confirm it
