I picked LeafGreen because of Venusaur (Bulbasaur is my homeboy \m/) and Emerald because of the expanded Battle Frontier (Brandon~!) so...yes, I think I did. XD

I picked Ruby, and I'm glad I did because I wouldn't want to be without Zangoose. But I would rather have had Kyogre than Groudon...

I'm playing Sapphire, I really wish I had paid the extra 10 bucks for Emerald though. I didn't know that it had a better battle arena and all of those extra little things (like moving pokemon).

Goodness, I feel spoiled and greedy when I say I own all versions of the mainstream games. However, half of them were my brother's before he abandoned them like he always does.

I've never considered the differences between the games, if I'm honest. So, yes. ^_^

Tehehe... well I have every main game except for red and green.

Although, for the first generation I bought gold first. If I could go back in time I would have picked silver. Also when firered and leafgreen came out I ended up getting leafgreen first because they didn't have any firered's left. :( Nevertheless I got it later on! :D

I believe Ive picked all the right games for me. I own Blue and Yellow, blue is my favorite color and I really like having pikachu follow you around in yellow.
In the 2nd gen I own all versions which Im happy about :)
In the 3rd gen I own Emerald, which is good because its has more then RS, and Leafgreen Im glad I chose because there had been a Red version before in english so I wanted something different.
For the fourth gen I own pearl, but I wouldnt know If i picked the right one since I have not played it yet!

Let's see

Yellow - Definitely a good choice
Blue - I don't even know why I got this, I already had Yellow
Silver - I didn't get to choose but I like Lugia more anyway
Ruby - Yea I'd rather have Zangoose than Seviper
Fire Red - Not that it was a big difference but yea I guess Fire Red looked cooler
Platinum - Oh Yeah, no doubt about it

I wish I'd got Silver for Donphan and Lugia, and Sapphire for Sableye, Seviper and Kyogre, but I'm happy with Pearl for Mismagius.

I eventually go out and get the other version, but when I first got Blue version I was a little disappointed about Blastoise being on the front.....

Ruby - of course, zangoose, solrock, mawile and seedot are way better than seviper, lunatone, sableye, and lotad.
LeafGreen - meh i didn't like or care about this game too much.
Platinum - of course for the expanded sinnoh dex and battle frontier

If i bought diamond or pearl, i'd choose pearl because glameow and misdreavus are awesome.

Blue: Meowth/Persian FTW.
Silver: Lugia FTW. Also, I liked Silver's sprites better.
Sapphire: Honestly, I'd judge both it and Ruby equal.
LeafGreen: Didn't take advantage of version exclusives, but somehow I still feel the game is superior to FireRed.
Pearl: Palkia, Glameow, and Mismagius FTW.

Yeah, I'm pleased with my version choices.

To be honest all the color games seem to be the same :blue, yellow, red,silver,crystal, gold

All the gba games are pretty much the same ruby emerald and sapphire.

All the ds games diamond pearl and platinum

I think the only difference is a slight story line change and maby a few different pokemon in them. Not much of a difference.

I'm with Sonic on this. When two are released on the same day (like Diamond and Pearl) I buy both, and I always buy the third in the series. I'm just nerdy like that.

When I got Diamond, I thought it was good, but now that I have Platinum, I have to say that Pt's much better. Definitely much better.
I think I should have gotten LeafGreen, only because Vulpix is one of my favorite Pokémon...
Emerald is meh... I liked FR better.
