3rd Gen Emerald or FireRed

First of all, the quantity of games you have doesn't really matter. Besides, the topic starter has said he bought Leaf Green.

Where did he say that?

Well, I prefer FR, but that's because ROM Hacking it is easier. It has longer and more fun gamepay but, due to the fact that I've only ever properly played Emerald, I'm a little biased. I'll still say FR.
 
FireRed is much better than Emerald. Just the fact that it's in Kanto and Emerald's in Hoenn alone makes FR better. What's more is that FR has an entire "region" after the E4, while all Emerald has is the dumb Battle Frontier.
Wow. Nice choice of words there.... Not another one...
FR has high level Pokemon which is good for training, but what happens if all your Pokemon are LVL.100? Trainer Tower? Off course not...

FYI- The Battle Frontier is one of the best places on could experience effective battle strategiesMaybe someone like you didn't even finished the Frontier silver, therefore adopting the thought of it getting boring... The Macho Brace is gotten earlier unlike FR, which provides earlier EV training, the Pokemon Contest segment is fun, berries adjustment & bases s well.

Personally, I think Emerald is better. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

Many of which are banned. You're never going to see a Double Teaming anything, Stalking OHKO machines, or Kings Rock/Quick Claw anything in competitive battling because they're just cheapass.

Only thing that really challenges me about the Battle Frontier is the ridiculous hax the computers have. >.<
 
Definately FireRed. Walking around Kanto reminds me of being a little kid with my Blue Version, plus you have the Sevii Islands to explore.

In my opinion, the colours in FR/LG are more vibrant that in R/S/E, which makes a big difference to the feel of it.
 
I like Emerald better. Emerald has a good starting place
and the they have mixed Pokemon's from Ruby and Sapphire.
