    I stop watching pokemon in the middle as a kid but I heard X&Y + sun&moon are good so I start watching from first season.

    Season 1 is great.
    but 2 and 3 are boring as 2...the team always do something unrelated to their goal, it's like they are on very long picnic trip and team rocket always show up even they did not have any part in the story

    And 3 start off good... look more interesting than 2 but there is almost no character development so i got bored.

    how are other season before X&Y? are they like 2 and 3 or better?
    If they are bad, I may go reading the recap instead of watching them as I don't want to miss some story that are before X&Y

    Thank you :)
     
    Season 4 is not much different than 3. Season 5 has some great episodes involving other sets of Team Rocket and really good gym battles, and the Johto League episodes are much better than the Indigo League episodes. Ash's final two battles in the league are epic.

    I did the same thing as what you're doing but I started 7 months ago. IMO seasons 2-5 were the worst of all the seasons so far and I'm up to DP. DP and AG are really well written and enjoyable to watch. However, the amount of fillers in Johto (seasons 3-5) made it almost unbearable for me to get through. But once you get through that, you get to see the show at its best.
     
    I agree Johto has a bunch of fillers and AG does have some better ones, but I didn't like May and Max and can't stand Harley and the contests didn't do much for me. DP though I'm not finding nearly as good.
     
    Thanks you all, i think i will read season4 recap
    but for season5 i will go back and watch it.

    Actually i think the battle in johto is better than Indigo....but it's still not great enough to make very bland story more enjoyable.
     
    XY for the most part is a standalone series. There's a serious lack of continuity in that saga.

    It's also apparently meant to be 'the greatest Pokemon anime of all time' but eh.

    Summarising each saga:

    Advance Generation and Battle Frontier...new girl is relevant
    Diamond and Pearl - Ash gets serious
    Best Wishes - Ash becomes a noob
    XY - Ash appreciation society
    Sun&Moon - ongoing but so far it's fun and G.O.A.T because it's yet to extremely annoy me (although I do dislike some parts of it)
