What is the best main series Pokemon game?
| Sorry no Green cause it was a Japan exclusive Personally HGSS. So many amazing mechanics and changes that makes it such a fun game to play and replay from time to time. |

Ringtomb said: Personally HGSS. So many amazing mechanics and changes that makes it such a fun game to play and replay from time to time. Hard agree. It took one of the most memorable Pokémon games in my opinion and somehow improved on it tenfold. Though I admittedly still prefer the music from original G/S/C since some of HG/SS's arrangements feel a bit slower than their original counterparts (to name some examples, the Lake of Rage theme and the Surf theme), and while it is still decent, it just doesn't feel the same. HeartGold/SoulSilver is also easily the best remake in the Pokémon franchise, hands down. I guess my pick for runner-up is Platinum. Even if the Sinnoh region had its flaws, the region still gave me an enjoyable experience and even some fond memories, and I'm sure it was slightly improved with the additions and changes Platinum made from Diamond and Pearl. I guess I just really love gen 4... gen 5 is probably peak Pokémon though with its graphical overhaul (especially with the beautifully animated Pokésprites) and innovativeness, but it's been a long time since I played White so I definitely need to replay it as soon as possible. Honestly, the Nintendo DS era of Pokémon was the best.  |

| I love Platinum, I mean it featured Girantina how cool is that. |
 |
| Pokemon Moon So much sweet Yuri in that game. It have one of the cutest lesbian couples off all time,,,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES And I love all the outfits different hairstyles colors and stuff you can change on your character I haven't played many Pokemon games. And I didn't bought it because of the Yuri. That was a big pleasant surprised. So i really enjoyed that one. Imo We need more Pokemon lesbians,,YEEEEEEES  |

| Fire Red for the noastalgia. Platinum was pretty fun too from what I remember, but I didn't try to replay it after one completion. |
 |
| I'm happy HGSS is winning this popularity contest, I don't think another game has matched up to it in content or quality. |
 |
| While I am biased to platinum it is probably HGSS or Ruby & Sapphire |
 _______I like rocks__  |
| Platinum, HGSS and the White & Black duology were the golden age of Pokemon (with LG/FR and OR/AS as honorable mentions), difficult to say which one is the best. If I had to choose, I would have to pick HGSS, is just a really great package full of content and stuff to do, even if it's not the best at everything it does. |
| Easily Diamond and Pearl/Platinum. In general I love all of the DS Pokémon games, I just like diamond and pearl more than HGSS because of the music. But even tho I like Black and White, it has some of the most hand holdy shit where the game stops you every 5 minutes. I loved the game as a kid, but I’m actually playing it again rn and holy fuck it’s annoying. |
   |
| Crystal because I don't like how 3d looks and how gba sounds. Also animated sprites were cool. |
| MEA·MENTVLA·INGENS·EST |
| I've only played Red on the original Game Boy, so I can't really give an opinion. |
 |
| Heartgold and Soulsilver. The best version of those games and it had soul. Hopefully, the Diamond and Pearl remakes have the same level of soul. |
| All the Gen 2 games, but in my opinion, anything after the DS era Pokémon games are overrated like Ultra Sun and Moon. Otherwise, I prefer Digimon or Megaten games when it comes to monster-themed games. |
| I would say black 2/white 2 2nd Heartgold Soulsilver |
 |
| I haven't played all of them, but the one with the most nostalgic value is probably Black. But the best one of all time is Brick Bronze. |

I don't recall B/W having that much hand-holding though... I imagine you'll hate Sun and Moon even more then if you haven't played them already lol PoeticJustice said: Heartgold and Soulsilver. The best version of those games and it had soul. Hopefully, the Diamond and Pearl remakes have the same level of soul. I really don't want to sound like a downer, but I really feel the need to be real here—the Sinnoh remakes are 75% bound to suck. I'm sorry. I know that this is my opinion, but I really do think that you shouldn't get your hopes all that high up, especially if you agree with the group of fans who dislike Sword and Shield. I doubt that Game Freak will fix some of the flaws that the Sinnoh games had, such as the region design—while Sinnoh is a memorable region, some of its noticeable flaws are that the route designs are admittedly not very backtrack-friendly and there are some strange decisions with stuff like the order of the Gyms you take on (especially in D/P). Also, if Game Freak didn't even bother to include Emerald's Battle Frontier for the Hoenn remakes, then don't expect Platinum's Battle Frontier to make an re-appearance. |

| Sapphire and Alpha Sapphire hands down |

Always beaten, always hated. [...] I am malicious because I am miserable." "It was not a cry for attention, it was not a cry for help. It was a scream in sheer agony [...]" -Luke Woodham |
| Idk, I don't like any of them in terms of region design, it's like which one annoys me the least. Black/White series in that case, I guess...? Yeah yeah, some story intrusiveness, this "best Pokemon story" shit I don't care about and all, but BW2 had some feauters I like, particularly in the extra content and even in the originals just having thebiggest generation since Gen 1 with a lot of 'mons I liked and more abilities seems alright. |
| HGSS and Platinum felt like the most polished games in the series to me. I've never beaten BW2, but from what I've played, it seems really good too. Probably the last really great Pokemon game. |
| i picked emerald, but then i remembered the sick events in pokemon BW and if u see or catch every pokemon in the regional dex, then u can go to this island and get a free shiny haxorus. and the dope ost too. but then again pokemon emerald was pretty fun. |
| I am the handle of my mop Rags are my body, and detergent is my blood I have scrubbed over a thousand floors Unknown to sick leave Nor known to pay Have withstood abuse to sweep many surfaces Yet those hands will never hold money So as I clean, Unlimited Maid Works |
| currently revisiting some games like fire red, ruby, and emerald. but yeah hgss is good to but only got a gist of a gameplay. |
 |
| anything from the DS era. Pokemon peaked at that era and nothing could top it |
    beep boop bop pow |
| Soul Silver rekindled my love for Pokemon. It just felt right in all ways. |
| Pokemon Emerald for me because I really like the battle frontier. Pokemon X because of the wonder trade and Super Training. |

Easy, it's Pokémon Emerald. I mean, just look at these 3 starters. And the Littleroot Town theme. It's the best. |

Kaiz- said: And the Littleroot Town theme. It's the best. Ah yes, Littleroot Town. Very nostalgic. Not sure if it's my favorite starter town theme though, there's so many good ones. |
|
| Emerald,Ruby,Sapphire,those are based and redpilled pokemon series,the kaiju thing,weather wars,picking side,and the world building is very wide,reminds me of sora yori mo tooi basho tbh. If you want kino try the remake aswell |
 |
| Black and White 2. Best story, villainous team, Pokémon, and music in the series. The Ghetsis theme slaps so hard. |

| Pokemon Emerald for me but for gameplay, I actually like Gen 6 for Mega Evolution. |
| It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person. |
| Gen 3 and Gen 2 were the best. that includes the remakes of heart gold soul silver and omega ruby and sapphire. |
| "among monsters and humans, there are only two types. Those who undergo suffering and spread it to others. And those who undergo suffering and avoid giving it to others." -Alice “Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty.” David Hume “Evil is created when someone gives up on someone else. It appears when everyone gives up on someone as a lost cause and removes their path to salvation. Once they are cut off from everyone else, they become evil.” -Othinus  |
| I really liked Platinum and Red and Blue. I do not know why, but Red and Blue was really my favorite. I still remember how much time I was spending playing that game. Recently I found out that there has been released a remake of it. The game is called Pokemon Firered. It is not bad, however it is not even close to the original Red and Blue game. However it is still a lot of fun. Especially using the InverseGamer cheats, the gameplay becomes really awesome, and starts reminding me about the original game. |
