The Gen 4 era, without a doubt. The generation I mostly grew up with, it brought us plenty of great games, both mainline and spinoff. Platinum, HGSS, Explorers of Sky, Shadows of Almia and Guardian Signs are all amongst my favourite games of all time. A lot of my favourite mons like Infernape...

RBY: Being able to get all three starters in Yellow is cool but otherwise the gameplay is far too outdated to motivate me to replay them FRLG: VS Seeker helps massively with grinding for both Exp and money, however not being able to evolve Golbat into Crobat before beating the Elite 4 is just...

If they're doing another open world game, have actual level scaling included this time so that it actually makes sense to challenge the Gym Leaders in any order In my current Scarlet playthrough I have at least been able to somewhat mitigate this issue by using different teams around the same...

Depends if the Zoroark has Flamethrower as it would usually outspeed Lucario

Just started my third Pokémon Shield playthrough a few days ago and have gone with Gloria for the third time. She gets my vote.

Selene's default USUM outfit is the only one I particularly like out of the four there, so she gets my vote.

Not a fan of her anime character in the slightest, but I still prefer Serena in the games over Calem so she gets my vote. Think she has both a better base design and better customisation options.

Definitely May, all three of her main series designs are better than Brendan's imo. Her Emerald outfit is my favourite out of the three.

Kris, mainly for being the first female protagonist in the games. I don't particularly hate Lyra's design, but I do still prefer Kris' design. I do wish she at least made some sort of appearance in HGSS, potentially as a second rival or a secret boss similar to Red.

Cynthia Iris Nemona Misty Whitney Cynthia has always been my favourite champion to go up against, she's awesome and always provides a challenge no matter which game you battle her in. She also has the best theme imo. Iris and Nemona are both pretty cool and have great designs as well as...

Are there any Pokémon that you like for any reason but haven't really used much in battles or anything? I've always liked Yanmega's design but have never really used one before during a playthrough or even trained one in the postgame. I am however thinking about using one soon for HGSS/Platinum...

I always enjoy seeing gifs of this 10/10 Pokémon X and Y road block on Twitter:

Ghetsis is definitely the best villain imo, he feels more threatening than the other villains and is the only one who is an actual final boss in the games. Also, Lusamine is a great villain in Sun and Moon but is unfortunately a victim of character assassination in USUM. Sword and Shield...

Top 2 are definitely the games I was expecting to see up there, FIFA I've been going back to every so often and Shadowverse I played pretty much non-stop in between the start of January and early March. I wouldn't have been surprised to see games like Freedom Planet 2 or Atelier Sophie 2 ahead...

My only real use for the Game Corner when playing the older games is exchanging prize money from grinding for coins so I can buy TMs for moves like Flamethrower and Thunderbolt. I barely ever spend time playing the casino games themselves, or in HGSS's case the monstrosity that is Voltorb Flip.
