I, myself am a huge fan of Gen III, mostly because of Ruby itself.

I loved the graphics, and I remember first stepping into Route 101 and hearing that great music. I also loved just about every piece of music in R/S, and the graphics were a huge step. And I loved just about every single Pokemon in Gen 3. Except Luvdisc.

Regarding the anime- I would probably have to go with... maybe ummm... Johot League Champions? I mean, I don't know! I only watched the first two seasons of Pokemon for real. When Johto premiered, I lost interest and moved onto Digimon. XD ... But... ehhh. Regarding the game- I'll go with Platinum. :3 The graphics are great, of course, and I enjoy the newer Pokemon.

when it comes to games: my favs are emerald (best storyline&most fun), platinum/heartgold/soulsilver (johto FTW! and the graphics,& game engine is fontastic!)

i love each region so its hard to single them out:
Kanto love every pokemon except ponyta&rapidash, koffing&weezing,& a few others

Johto loved most of the pokemon,but thanx to gen4 i love them all now :D

hoenn half the pokemon i loved,the rest i either liked,or hated, but its still the only region so far ive loved all 3beginners

sinnoh, only liked a handful of sinnoh pokemon, but it did give the best water beginner, but did become the first region whos fire beginnere was completely horrible,useless, &was a rip off of hoenns fire beginner, but it gave me the evolutions for gen2 pokemon they deserved :D so sinnoh made up for it with its gen2 evolutions & the new eeveelutions

so overall il have to say:

Johto, even more so after all those AMAZING evolutions in gen4 for gen2 pokemon, & with the physical special split, it made me love& appreciate a bunch of the "useless" pokemon from gen2 making their movesets fit them more nicely givin johto pokemon the respect they deserve :D

JOHTO! :D

the song for the show always makes me laugh, team rocket was the best at that time, and the pokemon introduced 2nd gen are pretty cool and a lot of them used in competitive battles :O

Generations 3 & 4 no doubt. Hoenn and Emerald are beyond amazing and deserve praise! Sinnoh is a really big region too and I was in love w/ most of the music for the towns/cities.

Anime wise I'd say Johto was my favorite. The Advanced Generation was okay but I was put off by Misty missing from it. D&P anime, I haven't really watched it--which I sort of regret--and will probably never watch it b/c it comes on at 6 a.m.

My favorite generation was the 3rd gen or Hoenn :DD. Most of my favorite pokemon came from gen III and I also liked the hoenn region as well as the gym leaders and the Elite 4. Just a great generation for me.

Johto is my favorite. in my opinion, pokemon games kinda plateaued there. i like Hoenn and Sinnoh, but i feel so nostalgic playing Gold...
JOHTO! :D

Johto. No doubt. Then Kanto, then the rest are not really good :/
Since when was there a generation Johto?

Generation IV. Platinum introduced a cool region, underrated Pokemon, goodcharacter development, and a neat game overall. Heartgold and Soulsilver were actually really fun, and that's saying a lot since I thought Generation II was the most overrated game in the main series.

Oh Luck, let them like their Johto's. :(

On that note though, generation 2 was my favourite <3

Mostly because Gold was my first game, and Crystal second...and the graphics, etc, just remind me of dreams I've had as a kid and... well yeah that generation was most nostalgic for me, and just made me happy.

Generation three was just boring, to me, and generation four really... was overboard. I liked generation 1, because the graphics reminded me of generation 2, so, yeah.

I'm hoping generation 5 will turn out pretty good, and then maybe it can second generation 2. (Note: The maps are the most appealing thing to me, although Pokemon come a close second, and from the generation 5 Pokemon revealed already... well, Generation 5 actually has a chance if it reminds me of my childhood somehow).

I was only saying that only because Johto is also in Generation IV. It goes by the game, not the region, and I'm pretty sure most of the people didn't think Heartgold and Soulsilver ruined the series forever.

Generation 4! It's my favorite generation (Currently, though Gen 5 seems to be going for that spot already). It has the best story, a lot of the pokemon there are high on my favorites list, the region is beautiful, with the mountains, swamps and icelands, and the music is amazing. I have beaten all 4 gens, and it also seems to be the hardest of them all. But it does have a drawback, and its name is... Manaphy.

But other then that, it's amazing.

I liked Gen II the best, IMO it has the most unique pokemon an doesn't cross any boundaries in terms of pokemon design and story line.

playing 2 regions was awesome even though the second didnt have much of a story line.

and the graphics, OH MY GOD THE GRAPHICS!

The graphics are my favorite by far, i love the over use of dithering and the style is perfect.

With the exception of Graphics, I completely agree with you. If only Glaceon had originated from this time, I would want to learn to repair my gen 2 game pak so I wouldn't have to worry about breaking it from over use... any time I broke it, no matte- Milotic, Blaziken, Togekiss, and Gardivoir would also be nice bonuses, and Maybe a few more Encounter areas for Skarmory...
