4th Gen What will you always remember about Gen 4?

When I got megainium to lv. 100 battling a lv. 2 pidgey!

I personally remember the Starters. Very well designed. I have not seen good starters in a long time.

While Gen IV isn't my most favorite, in fact it's one of the least favorite generations. But I have to be fair, the generation has brought a lot of great stuff as well! (:

The return of day/night cycle;
The introduction of move categories, which affects the whole competitive scene from that point on;
A lot of legendary (personally not a fan, though I'm aware there are those who appreciate it);
Evolutionary relatives of the old favorites;
GSC remakes;
Interesting plot and perhaps even darker (Platinum);
New moves that spiced up the competitive scene, like Leaf Storm, Aqua Jet, Flare Blitz.

- The starters
- The new evolutions
- The great story
- The battles against Cyrus and Volkner
- Barry was the best rival
- Great E4 and my 2nd favourite champion

Gen 4 is my favourite gen so far. It's also the gen I got into Pokemon.

Definitely the Pokeathlon, biggest timesink in the games yet.

While I didn't like how slow 4th Gen played, it does still hold its memories. Here's what I enjoyed most about the games, particularly Sinnoh.

The starters and other new Pokemon, the environments in Sinnoh, a lot of really dark battles, the Gym Leaders being quite a challenge, and also my fave (at-the-time) female protagonist aka Dawn.

When I think of Generation 4, I think of Barry being too hyper active and running into me ALL the time.

- Maybe it's just nostalgia, but I really liked Barry. He's still my favorite rival/friend.
- The story which is still the best in a main series pokémon game so far in my opinion.
- Cynthia. Maybe it was because I was young and didn't know how to play the game that well, but Cynthia was the most challenging champion for me so far. And I like a challenge. Plus, her design is great.
- I really liked the legendaries.
- The new evolutions. While Pearl was my first pokémon game so I didn't really know what was new, I really appreciated them after learning about them.
- Empoleon will always hold a special place in my heart.

So, Sinnoh remakes when?

All I remember is that Team Galactic is comprised of a bunch of psychopaths, that Drifloon is dank m3m3z and that my first shiny was a Bidoof.

How your Pokemon was able to follow you in HG/SS. I thought that was cool when I was a kid. Red was a monster to beat at the end of the game. :c

-Cynthia
-My noob mistakes like wasting a Master Ball on a Golduck
-That damned Clefable in the two player battle tower (I was playing with my cousin) which would not stop using Minimize. No, we didn't have Swift or Aerial Ace.
-My cousin beating my Empoleon with another Empoleon by using Earthquake
-Meeting Giratina for the first time
-All the global Poekon I got (I think I even got like 1 from Jordan and one from Turkmenistan or something like that)
-Being able to walk with Pokemon in HG/SS
-The Battle Frontier
-Beating Red on Mt. Silver

Most of all, I'll remember the atmosphere. Gen 1 was an adventure, Gen 2 was, a mystery of sort, Gen 3 was hyper, and Gen 4 was exactly what I needed after first 3 generations, something really chill and zen, that just keeps you relaxed even at the most tense moments of the gameplay.

Everything about HG/SS. From having your Pokemon be able to follow you to the Pokeathalon, the Gen 2 remakes were a joy to play and are still my favorite Pokemon games to this day.

I'll always remember the music of this generation (the Team Galatic themes, the music played at the lakes, Cynthia theme and piano prelude, Old Chateau, the Frontier Brain theme, etc.) as well as the Pokemon (evoultions for older Pokemon, Chatot, Lucario, Garchomp, the starters, the legendaries).

The Soundtrack

I loved the new evolutions of older generation pokémon aswell as the starters. Torterra is still to this day my favourite Pokémon

Sinnoh as a whole region, new eeveelutions and Poketch.
