My favourite generation is the one I have nostalgia for and the first one i played, Gen 3
Ruby and Sapphire i think had really good pokemon designs especially my favourite legendary Groudon, he looked metal as fuck on my copy of Ruby. I enjoyed the soundtrack from the GBA version and matched the anime based from it, Pokemon Advance.
What is your favourite generation and why? What details makes it stand out for you?
Gen 4 or Gen 5. so much post-elite-4 content, and it’s not just “grind this arena endlessly” post-game content. Actual adventures in the case of the Gen 2 remakes and Gen 5.
Gen 3 holds a special place in my heart (Emerald was my first pokemon game) but the creature comforts of gameplay in 4 and 5 hold up a lot better
I enjoyed the gen4 remake for switch but it seriously lacked the amount of content in Platinum. They had a chance to greatly expand the distortion world and just… skipped it entirely instead.
