4th Gen Which game is your favorite, and why?

[Pika-power]

I got all three, but platinum grabbed me the most.

 

[pl1997]

oh, my favorite is black because the 3D effect is sooo cool

 

[Elder Trainer]

Platinum, by far. It was the game that got me back into Pokemon, and it fixed some of the issues with D/P, primarily the battle and surfing speed.

 

[Blake3one6]

it's Blue cause that's where it all started! lol

 

[miakalina]

Platinum is my favorite. I love the storyline. Diamond and Pearl are really boring.

 

[Pokemon Trainer Touko]

Platinum is my favorite too. I like it because there are more features and you can catch both Dialga and Palkia. XD

 

[Novia]

Platinum is my favorite from these three. It was my first Nintendo DS game and it was the first new Pokemon game I had played since Ruby, I never knew about FireRed and LeafGreen or Diamond & Pearl until Platinum was released :(.

 

[レイジングブラスト]

Even though Dialga is my favorite cover Pokemon of D/P/Pt, Platinum is still my favorite because of the extended storyline, slightly better 3D and the better animated backsprites.

 

[The Nightmare]

My favourite is pokemon black with 3d affects.

 

[MeiChama]

Platinum because you get a Villa and you can Re-Battle the gym leaders.

 

[WhiteWizard]

this one... maybe because the love of my life who broke my heart also played it w me -_-...

Im talking about diamond.

 

[Dark Piplup]

Diamond because when I had the choice between Diamond or Pearl I loved Dialga so I chose Diamond. And I prefer one of the first 2 to the 3rd game.

 

[Pwnyta Jockey]

Pearl

I started fourth gen off by getting Pearl. Was almost one year later that I got Diamond. At one point, my Pearl play time was closing in on 300 hours played. The Pearl version "exclusives" of Glameow and Palkia are what drew me to choose it over Diamond.

 

[StarlightSerenity]

Diamond because its the only one I have out of the three >.< I'm considering getting Platinum but I've just ordered White so I'll be concentrating on that :)

 

[Spanner226]

Pokemon Platinum is simply amazing.

I'm not saying it's predecessors are bad, but in Platinum, the storyline has been improved, there is the visually impressive distortion world, and the ability to catch certain pokemon prior to receiving the national pokedex.

But of course, it's only natural that it's this way, because Platinum is a newer game.

 

[tinq]

Platinum is my favorite.
Even I don't really play Pokemon because of the plot, it had very nice one.
I also liked Distortion World, it was simply so disturbing but so awesome.

 

[Stormer07]

Platinum as you can re battle gyms and the distortion world was pretty cool =)

 

[Psyshock]

I like Platinum for the same reasons and of course the addition of the Battle Frontier. Diamond and Pearl weren't that great to me anyway.

 

[Echidna]

platinum, because the other too were way too hard, and platinum klnda brought new stuff to the table.

 

[Clairissa]

Platinum, larger pokedex and the addition of new forms and their pre-evolutions made it seem like the true gen4 game.
Though I liked Pearl second, because Palkia is my favorite legendary in the whole generation.
