    Hiii what was the best generation's games in your opinion? Including characters, region lore, Pokemon, mechanics etc

    I've always wondered which is the most liked gen.. :)
     
    Definitely Gen 5. I love the Unova Pokémon, the characters were actually interesting and well-developed for once (a trend that seems to have gone backwards since then imo), and the Unova region has a ton of nooks and crannies that make exploring a hell of a lot of fun, as opposed to the relatively streamlined regions in most other generations.

    Also introduced a bunch of cool features like Seasons, nearly all of which were inexplicably removed in the next generation ):
     
    I believe that Generation 4 is the best region with the best games. I'm a sucker for lore and wow, this generation definitely brought it out. The lore of this game went throughout the main game to the post game, giving you a full experience. The game was paced out perfectly, so you wouldn't beat it in one go & has a lot of material in post game so you won't get bored right away once you beat it. + The game itself gave a bit more challenge to the player, which I like. The characters are well-rounded with Barry being a competitive rival without being a jerk & Team Galactic giving enough spunk and spook. Also, this Generation gave a lot of previous Pokémon more love and added a lot of great Pokémon too! :)
     
    Gen 4.

    DPPT are my all time favourites, though I would say S/M are almost on-level with them, just not quite. Sinnoh is my absolute favourite region, and the music, plot, characters, Pokémon.. everything just went right imo.
     
    Gen 5 is enjoyable and seems more fun and unique on it's own way, the pokemon tournament and add some fundamental twist to the story. So right off the bat is Gen 5. Despite this every generation have it's charms.

    Perhaps gen 1 was the starting point for pokemon so it's nothing new just the gameboy game, with some game-bending glitches, gen 2 was next step of introducing several types and fixes and people find it bit less enjoy than the remake though and gen 3 was enjoyable at remake of gen1, but viably the postgame doesn't excite anyone. I'm sure someone will vote for gen7 because several people do/don't enjoy trials than gyms.
     
    (although the lack of good Fire types is something Sinnoh will be made fun of forever, I guess)
    they sorta fixed it in Platinum at least

    tho I wonder what possessed them to include a Fire type E4 member in Diamond/Pearl when they had literally all of 2-3 Fire type lines

    Hey, don't insult Flint's awesome Fire type team of...Rapidash and Infernape. Yeah.


    As for favourite generation, 4th for reasons that have been basically spammed in this thread, but I'll tl;dr it - plot/lore/characters/Pokemon/music.
     
    I loved original silver so much and I don't know how I didn't wear my cartridge out as a kid playing it constantly and starting and restarting. Sapphire though always seems to be my home in terms of fav mechanics and actual game play + pokemon I 100% love.

    HOWEVER GEN 7 CHANGED THINGS UP and I'm kind of unexpectedly in love guys

    I would have to give with Gen 2 here Because i got so many good memories with it
    Like traveling through route 29 for the first time Trying to find a pidgey

    Or Silver which was by favorite rival by far I found his character interesting as he was pretty much always rude to you and it was never explained why (Until gen 4 that is)

    I did not mind the bad graphics Because for it's time it looked pretty great and still to this day I respect gen 2 for that particular reason.
     
    Generation three is my favourite mostly due to the music, the improved graphics over the first two generations and the Pokemon introduced, and I also liked the introduction of the Contests and both Team Aqua and Team Magma.

    Gen One is my next favourite though. I find the originals hard to beat mostly due to the nostalgia, plus some of my favourite Pokemon are from Gen One. Plus Team Rocket. They've always been my favourite villains. :3
