I can't really decide!

Gen 1: Good Gameplay. Worst Graphics I have ever seen! Even the sprites aren't correct-_-
Gen 2: Better Gameplay. Better Graphics. At least the sprites are correct :D
Gen 3: (Hoenn) Bad Gameplay. Wonderful Graphics! (Kanto) Better than Gen 1 in every way possible
Gen 4: Better Gameplay. Even better graphics! Wi-Fi, which is the best thing.

Overall.
Gen 3 (Kanto) > Gen 4 (Cuz of Wi-Fi) > Gen 2 > Gen 1 > Gen 3 (Hoenn It's terrible)
 
Gen. I, it was the original & I love it for what it is & it will always have the legends like Pikachu & Charizard etc.
 
Gen 1. Mainly for Tentacool/Tentacruel. After all this time and new Pokemon appearing, these two are the most unique out of them all for being the only Water/Poison type. Also, they have REAL Legendary Pokemon.

Over time, legendaries have become overrated with newer generations. With gen II, it's like, okay, two more "legendary" birds guarding the sky and sea. Then you have Gen III with the actual "rulers" of earth and sea. And finally, with Generation 4, not only do we have rulers of time, space, and the universe itself, but also a Pokemon creationism backstory and the game really feels like it ends after you defeat Cyrus on Spear Pillar (or Distortion World for Platty players like myself). I mean after that, it's like, woohoo!, you get your last gym badge, a pointless HM, and it's off to beat the Elite 4, and go explore the battle isles.

Every other monotonous thing aside, however, I did enjoy the champion battle with Cynthia, in Platinum anyway. She is, so far, the hardest, the most challenging, and the best "champion" created in any pokemon game so far.

So, getting back on track, I'll just rate the gens:

1st Gen I (still has some of the most unique pokemon to date)
2nd Gen II (felt more like an expansion of the first game)
3rd Gen IV (creationism aside, has a great story compared to the last 3 gens, also Cynthia :) )
4th Gen III (really sucked, especially Emerald, sry I'll pass on Ratatta clones thx)
 
Storyline wise defo 4 but 2 Was litrally epic thats why i loved it. 3 meh wasn't great. I would like a remake. And 1 was alwsome just had a short liffe span
 
It's a close call between genII (largest world, biggest adventure, best new pokemon) and genIII (most new pokemon, best story in RSE, favorite region Hoenn), but I give the edge to GenIII for it's story and how much I love Hoenn. :P
 
I think its Gen 2 because thats got all rare pokemon in and its where pokemon kicks off with the cool stuff like the phone and night and day and you can be a boy or girl, its awesome :)
 
Generation 3 is the reason I began to love Pokemon again.
I've played about ten minutes of the first two generations on my friend's game, and I can't say anything good or bad, since I never played it to the end.
From experience though, Gen III wins my vote. (;
 
Gen 1: I liked how the pokemon were plain. Orginal.

Gen 2: I kinda count G1 and G2 together because most of the pokemon in it are evolutions or pre-evolutions of pokemon from Gen 1. My favorite for nostalgia.

Gen 3: The weird designs on the pokemon, bleh. This one i disliked the most, because of team magma & aqua.
Magma: "Let's make more land, hehe" Aqua: "NO let's drown da world!" -_-

Gen 4: Best graphics, it made the game really fun again. It brought way to many legendaries to the series.


RECAP: Gen 1 > Gen 2 > Gen4 > Gen 3
 
Hard to decide, I started on generation I but I'll say Generation II. Can't wait until Soul Silver and Heart Gold comes out!

Generation 2.

Has the best memories associated with it, cutest Pokemon, more fun. <3
 
I love 2nd Generation. I think it's the best Generation than the other Generations. Love the Gym Leaders. Love the Johto Pokemon. Love the Plot. Love the Characters. xD
 
I my last post in this thread I had stated that Gen II was my favourate. I have changed my mind over that, as something came to my mind now. I think that Gen IV will be my favourate as HG/SS are also included in Gen IV and I have the feeling that I will love these remakes much more than the originals.Yeah I know that some people may or may not agree with me!
 
What do you like better? Gen 1, 2, 3, or 4?
