[Xatu_needs_no_wind]

What's your favorite POKEMON GAME?
Colosseum White 2 or Crystal, I can't decide! Really lump the Black/White games in one game lump since they connect each other. Good atmospheres and concepts plus double battles and decent challenges. Crystal gets by on pure nostalgia.

What's your favorite REGION?
Unova just won over Johto for me. It's places may not be as unique but they are very detailed and thought out with themes and people.

What's your favorite CITY/TOWN?
ORAS Mauville City for now. I like the new design's handling of all the new features and complex (and dark) backstory.

What's your favorite EXPLORABLE DUNGEON?
RSE's Victory Road for an awesome theme and being one of the few fitting for a final dungeon. (poor ORAS...)

What's your favorite LANDMARK ICON?
Tin Tower/Bell Tower. I dunno why... It's just imposing to me and I always imagined the view from the top to look amazing at sunset. Mt. Moon a close second for dancing Clefairy.

What's your favorite ROUTE?
I always set my secret base in Route 115 in Hoenn but Route 10 in Unova has the best badge check gates ever and the Sevii Islands has really good long routes. Hardest to decide.

What's your favorite ALTERNATE WEATHER LOCATION?
The route where soot falls and you collect it near Fallarbor Town. So peaceful. Desert Resort is tied (It's nicer than the average desert!)

What's your favorite EVENT EXCLUSIVE LOCATION?
Sinjoh Ruins

 

[Laverre]

1. What’s your favorite POKEMON GAME?
HeartGold maybe

2. What's your favorite REGION?
Johto

3. What’s your favorite CITY/TOWN?
Ecruteak City, Canalave City, Undella Town, Laverre City

4. What's your favorite EXPLORABLE DUNGEON?
Any of the forests I can't really think of one in particular.

5. What's your favorite LANDMARK ICON?
Tin Tower/Burned Tower from Ecruteak

6. What's your favorite ROUTE?
n/a

7. What's your favorite ALTERNATE WEATHER LOCATION?
Snowpoint City..

 

[PrinceOfFacade]

1. What’s your favorite POKEMON GAME?
Pokémon Silver

2. What's your favorite REGION?
Johto. It's the closest Pokémon has gotten to an open world RPG.

3. What’s your favorite CITY/TOWN?
Lavender Town and Lilycove City. Lavender Town is the quintessential place of Ghost-types, and Lilycove, to me, excells all other cities in beauty and overal presence.

4. What's your favorite EXPLORABLE DUNGEON?
Does Burned Tower count?

5. What's your favorite LANDMARK ICON?
Platinum's Battle Frontier, only because of the Battle Arcade

6. What's your favorite ROUTE?
Route 104. Dem trumpets tho.

7. What's your favorite ALTERNATE WEATHER LOCATION?
There is no alternate weather location. They're all the same. However, I think Unova is the closest we've gotten to having a legitimate climate region.

 

[Minedreigon]

1. What’s your favorite POKEMON GAME?
Pokémon Platimun or Pokemon ORAS.

2. What's your favorite REGION?
Easily Sinnoh. THIS is the closest we have gotten to open world my friend. Branching paths are everywhere, and nearly everywhere is extremely memorable.

3. What’s your favorite CITY/TOWN?
Easily Sootopolis. The music is brilliant and chilled, and the idea of living in a basin is just wicked. A nice atmosphere. Fortree or Snowpoint are close seconds (I'd live in Snowpoint any day).

4. What's your favorite EXPLORABLE DUNGEON?
uh... I'd say the Old Chateu or Frost Cavern. I like ice, but for the former I just like how it could relate to Charon's lore and has a creepy vibe... with HUMAN GHOSTS.

5. What's your favorite LANDMARK ICON?
Can I say Snowpoint Ruins?

6. What's your favorite ROUTE?
Route 217. Goddamit I love the snow. Also, MORE presumably human ghosts.

7. What's your favorite ALTERNATE WEATHER LOCATION?
Snowpoint City for being cold, calm and beautiful.

7.What's your favorite ALTERNATE WEATHER LOCATION?
Anywhere with rain!

 

[Skygge]

Soulsilver, probably, since it's a great remake. The in-game levels could have been better, though.

2. What's your favorite REGION?
Johto

Ecruteak City, Laverre City, Humilau City, Lacunosa Town. Yeah, I know those are too many.

[CyberBlaziken]

1. What’s your favorite POKEMON GAME?
Red or Platinum. X is a close call too.

Hoenn

Celadon City, Lavaridge Town, All of the Starting Towns besides the ones in B/W/2.

Sinjoh Ruins

 

[Flamer]

1. What’s your favorite POKEMON GAME?
SoulSilver, maybe. Been really enjoying AS too

2. What's your favorite REGION?
Another very tough one. Layout wise, Sinnoh, although I don't really like the art style in DPPt so that lets it down a little. Maybe 3D Hoenn

3. What’s your favorite CITY/TOWN?
Really like Goldenrod City. Nostalgia probably plays a part in that. The new Mauville City in ORAS is pretty cool too. Think living in London gives me a bais to the big cities...

4. What's your favorite EXPLORABLE DUNGEON?
Distortion World. Very unique. Would love to see this in a 3D remake some day

5. What's your favorite LANDMARK ICON?
The Magnet Train Station, mostly for the nostalgia of hopping between Kanto and Johto in Silver. Mt. Silver was pretty epic too

6. What's your favorite ROUTE?
Route 27. Realising after 50 or so hours of game play on Silver that you could go east of New Bark town is still one of my most memorable Pokemon moments. Travelling the root and realising I was opening up a whole new journey, in Kanto no less, was truly thrilling.

7. What's your favorite ALTERNATE WEATHER LOCATION?
Snowpoint City, especially with the Diamond Dust

 

[KalosChampion]

Favorite Game: Y

[SparklingMistral]

1. What’s your favorite POKEMON GAME?
I think I'm gonna have to go with GSC here. They connected Johto and Kanto, and that was pretty rad.

2. What's your favorite REGION?
I think I'm gonna have to go with Johto here too.

3. What’s your favorite CITY/TOWN?
Fortree City. A city made up entirely of tree houses is pretty cool.

4. What's your favorite EXPLORABLE DUNGEON?
I don't have one.

5. What's your favorite LANDMARK ICON?
Mmm, I really liked the sun thing in Anistar City, if that counts.

6. What's your favorite ROUTE?

7. What's your favorite ALTERNATE WEATHER LOCATION?
The snowy areas in Sinnoh and Kalos were pretty cool.

 

[Raxacoricofallapatorius]

1. What’s your favorite POKEMON GAME?
I'd have to go with Platinum. Great, vast region, solid Pokemon diversity, excellent story, and uniquely challenging champion battle.

2. What's your favorite REGION?
It's a tie between Kanto and Hoenn. Kanto because it was my first, Hoenn for geographical diversity and overall enjoyment.

3. What’s your favorite CITY/TOWN?
I'd actually have to go with Anistar City because of that gorgeous sundial and the somewhat cold climate. Fortree is a very close second.

4. What's your favorite EXPLORABLE DUNGEON?
I'd have to say either the Distortion World or Chargestone Cave.

5. What's your favorite LANDMARK ICON?
Definitely Pokemon Tower in Lavender Town.

6. What's your favorite ROUTE?
Routes 12-15 in Kanto are the most memorable to me, but my favorite has to be Routes 132-134 in Hoenn!

7. What's your favorite ALTERNATE WEATHER LOCATION?
The snow in Sinnoh and the desert in Hoenn. The desert in Unova is memorable too.
