Hey there, pokemon fans. This is my first post on IGN in ages, but I seek some gaming advice.
Preface: I stopped playing the Pokemon games after Gold/Silver. I was about 10-11 when they came out. Since then I've dabbled in red/blue and g/s, just for nostalgia's sake. I recently decided to buy a used copy of Ruby, and I just finished playing it. I really loved it, and am considering playing either diamond/pearl or black/white. Most people I've spoken to say I should just skip d/p and buy b/w. I don't know if I like the idea of skipping, plus I'm sure I'd be able to find a decently priced used copy of d/p somewhere, compared to all of the new, higher-priced copies of b/w. But everyone says the d/p is not nearly as good as b/w. Maybe you have a different opinion!
Then again, HG/SS interests me as well. I'm more interested in brand new content, but I'm so intrigued by the idea of being able to visit Kanto on my DS.
What would you do if you were in my situation? My love for Pokemon has been re-kindled, and I need your help using it. Obviously, this is a Pokemon forum and I'll likely be encouraged to buy all of them. But for now, I'd just like to purchase one game.
Thanks!
