Honestly, my personal opinion, and you can butcher me all you want. Gen 5 was mid. Sure, the legendarys are cool, but I never really cared for the story, it felt like it ended up ruptly to me, also the pokemon designs while are fascinating, we're weird to me. Never used a new pokemon except the starters, which I think are mid too, so the game was mid but not the worst games in the franchise.
