How do you compare Platinum to Emerald, Crystal, Pikachu?
For some reason I found Pikachu Edition to be mystical beyond belief, barely recognizing rehashment. The show references were so cool!
What was everyone's thoughts of Platinum who had already played PD, in comparison with previous thirdwheel editions? |
For me, Platinum is my second favourite version out of all them, second to Crystal. Yellow wasnt that big of a deal for me, the only real extra I found gameplay wise was the 3 starters being obtainable in one game and the surfing pikachu game.
|
Yellow version was the best out of ALL the pokemon games in my opinion.
|
Crystal>Platinum>Emerald>Yellow for me. Crystal was amazing to me, Platinum was also amazing but to me wasn't as good as crystal. The last two were meh to me.
|
Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow was the first and best game ever created in the United States. When Pokemon Gold/Silver came out, it was better than the first generation introducing one of the best Pokemon of all time like Feraligatr. When Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald came out, I didn't like it that much, but I liked the Battle Tower. When the remake of Pokemon Red/Blue, Pokemon FireRed/LeafGreen came out, I liked how they redone everything. When Pokemon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum came out, it was the far best generation of ALL, Platinum is the best version ever yet.
|
pokemon crystal was epic, and so was platinum and yellow. I did not like emerald.
|
platnium is nothing compared to pikachu version. it was and is the best pokemon game ever. but it's way better than crystal, and a little better than emerald
|
Well, I'm no fan of Platinum's storyline, to be honest. It had the features and graphics, but Crystal and Yellow just had that magic for me.
Emerald was nice. Some of the tunes were really cathcy, and the same can be said with Platinum. I liked their extra features. But Crystal and Yellow just take the cake for me. <3 |
Insert random filler here.
|
They're all just point revisions on the original pair of games they complement.
In this aspect, Platinum wins, since it fixed up so much and brought so many features. Emerald phails because of its broken RNG. To rank them, I'd go: Plat > Crystal > Emerald > Yellow. |
Well for me it was Crystal, Platinum, Emerald, Yellow. Some of my most favorite chilhood times were playing the second generation games.
|
Yellow, definitely! hands down!!
C'mon, you have a pikachu following you everywhere you go! How can that not be awesome? |
Platinum > Crystal > Emerald > Yellow.
Before Platinum came out, Crystal was my all-time-favourite version, but when Platinum came out, my new favourite version was born. Emerald was awesome too, especially when it cames to the spectacle in Xeneroville, where Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza appeared.. Yellow wasn't that great, the only feature for me, was the fact, that Bulbasaur, Charmander AND Squirtle were getable. |
Crystal. I don't know why. The last two (Platinum and Emerald) are nice games but they both have some big flaws. Emerald just didn't have the graphics since they made no attempt to upgrade that graphics seeing that they did so for FireRed and LeafGreen. That got me kind of upset since it felt like I bought an lacking product. Platinum just feels like Pearl and Diamond. The storyline is great but it feels too much similar.
|
Platinum doesn't have any competition here :)
It's best because of awesome graphic, storyline and Distortion World! Second is Emerald Third Crystal and last is Yellow. Yellow was great but it's a bit old now |
I think Platinum was a great third game in the series, that added on to the already good story line and stood out from its predecessors with great, new features, similar to the way yellow, crystal, and emerald were
|
I would say my favorites from best to least are...
Emerald Crystal Yellow Platinum I'm just such a big fan of Emerald. I don't know why though considering The Hoenn region is one of my least favorites. |
They were all pretty good. But Crystal is the best pokemon game ever made, hands down. No competition. I also loved Yellow. You get pikachu to follow you, you get all 3 starters, and everyone everywhere is way more powerful than in red and blue. It also followed the anime pretty well too :). Emerald also just kinda gave off that vibe of amazingness. Platinum was great, but I actually have to rate it last. Idk why really, it just didn't appeal to me as much. It was better than Pearl and Diamond though.
Crystal>Yellow>Emerald>Platinum. |
I liked Pokemon Platinum the Bast, just for the fact that Handsome was in it!
My 2nd favriote 3rd instolment was Crystal, then Yellow, then Emerald. |
hmmm..I found platinum a lot more fun then pearl. The story line was a lot better and more entertaining and I also liked the new gyms. It gave me a little bit of a challenge and made the game more arcade like if you know what im mean.
|
IMO:
This is just a personal thing however I think that Pokemon Yellow was much better than any of the games... by far. That being said the fact that Pokemon Yellow follows the story of the TV show exactly... or for the most part... programming was hard back then kids. It's actually sort of in a league of it's own hence why it was never remade, and probably won't be (By Nintendo that is). So putting Yellow aside Platinum was AMAZING. I mean really compared to D/P it had so many differences. Emerald and Crystal where... well improvements with the ability to catch more legendaries... that's all. Platinum had massive multi and single player changes.
The bottom line? Yellow was cool Platinum is bloody brill |
Platinum and Crystal rule them. Platinum is better though. Id never pick old over new.
|
Platinum>Crystal>Yellow>Emerald.
I love Sinnoh a lot and hate Hoenn a lot. Johto and Kanto are in the middle for me so yeah I just like crystal more cause its crystal. |
Crystal>Platinum>Yellow>Emerald
I thought that Crystal was one of the best games so far as it had something that I cannot describe.(Actually even I don't know what THAT 'SOMETHING' is) |
I found Platinum to be favourite but however I hated Diamond/Pearl so much they were so boring and Platinum was completely different and of course like most people Crystal comes next, Emerald was alright but the only good things about it was they added animation, the 3 legendaries were obtainable at lvl 70 and the battle frontier, Yellow was fun but I was always underleveled and it's a bit retarded to get a level 10 squirtle when you need to beat a lvl 28 Raichu.
So my order would be: Platinum>Crystal>Emerald>Yellow |
