    Basically, I (used to see) loads of these types of threads so I decided to make another one :P hopefully one large one. :D

    Title basically sums up the thread. Remember the PC rules and try and vote in the poll as well as post. ;) What is your favourite generation and why, and try and explain why it's your favourite:

    Generation 1 is the best!

    Good Post
    Generation 1 is the best because the pokemon designs were the best, in my opinion, and it started of the Pokemon series.


    Anyway, just to get the ball rolling, my favourite Generation is 2 because I think Gold, Silver and (especially Crystal) were the best game of the series, added a lot of new features (Day and night, phone, radio, breeding, shinies etc.) as well as including Team Rocket :). Another thing which mad eit stand out was that it felt more of a sequel (Team Rockets revenge, Kanto still in it etc) than the other games. :\ Plus, I love Espeon and Suicune and Lugia are the best mascot Pokemon :)

    Gen 2 because it kept the freshness and originality of the first game, but straightened out the kinks in gameplay, like the overpowered psychic-type. Also, it was just so much more layered than the other games, with several subplots and hidden rewards (like Tyrogue and the Unown puzzles)
     
    Arent they all good in there own way? xD

    My fave is Gen 4 because it has all the PKMN from the other Gen (Except legends) and the game seems to be more intresting. But like whats crossed out, they all rule. xD
     
    I like them all, but the one i liked the most was the 1st gen :D It was amazing to play it with all my friends :D old times xD
     
    It's definitely a close tie between the first and second respective generations. I mean you have the first generation, the one that started it all and attracted me into the franchise. But then, then yo have the second generation a great follow up the introduced, in my opinion, the best three Pokémon games ever made (Gold, Silver, Crystal). The second generation just barely beats the first generation. It's what really solidified Pokémon.
     
    Generation 3 will always have a place in my heart! The reason I like Gen 3 is because of the Poke'mon designs. Plus,my other *main* favourite (Mightyena) is from there too! And,I also like it because Emerald is my favourite game. :D
     
    Gen 2, hands down. I remember being unable to ever put my Gameboy Color down when I first acquired Pokemon Gold, and spending entire weekends (which seemed a really long time to me as a kid XD) sitting out in the garden playing Crystal. It was just so different from what I'd played before, and is what kept me hooked on the series. :3
     
    I always will love the beautiful eccents of the Hoenn (3rd Gen) because it brought in so many new things into Pokemon such as contests and newer pokemon too. Plus it showed me how much I enjoyed taking part in Pkmn Contests!
     
    Ahhhh I loved the 2nd Gen, I honestly don't know why, I have great memories of me being at Summer Daycare and playing Pokemon Stadium and Pokemon Stadium 2, discussing rumors about how to get legendaries, I also loved 1st gen, but it was kinda...missing something, I think that the 2nd Generation of pokemon added whatever it was that the 1st gen was lacking.
     
    I like gen 2 because it has two regions and takes longer to complete
     
    I like all the games I have got a lot on enjoyment playing each generation of the games. But for me generation one will always be close to my heart. It was when I had a lot of friends to battle and trade with and I miss that side of the games now. Also the first generation of pokemon will always been my favorite.
     
    I have to say Generation II.

    Generation I has crappy sprites, but of course, it was the start of the whole thing, so people don't really know what Pokémon looks like back then.

    Generation III is good, but still, there are many stuff that they could've improved on.

    Generation IV. What the fook?! I mean, there are so many random, Legendary Pokémons in this Generation than all the other Generations combined!

    I mean, what's up with Heatron and Regigigas is a crappy version of Lugia, Rayquaza, and Ho-Oh.
     
    It was such a hard choice, I love them all, but I went with Gen 1, because that's what started it all of! I played Gen 2 the least, because I never owned it until I had finished Gen 3, before that I had just borrowed it for short amounts of time, and now I've lost it, but Gen 2 was great. God, I hope I find it, since I just found my Game Boy Pocket!
     
    Generation 4....Wifi battling, pretty much the reason I got back into pokemon. My second favorite is probably generation 3.
     
    I put Generation I, but in reality it would be both I and II, evenly tied. Those original games just have that feel to them that are never quite entirely replicated in the generations that followed.

    After Generation I and II, my favorite is Generation IV (which I've had LOADS of fun with), followed by Generation III, which I enjoyed but I don't even think it compares to the other games. R/S/E just didn't do it for me, but I'm not 100% sure why.
     
    I used to think Gen 2 was the best (because of the obvious reasons), but Platinum made me change my mind...

    GEN 4 FTW!
     
    Fourth Gen, the development in graphics are amazing, the new Pokemon designs and the story lines.
