Now that Unova is coming to a close fairly soon, it's a good time to reopen this topic and allow CIVIL conversation about which "series" is your favorite, why you think so, and how the Pokemon anime is doing overall.
Now I say "series" with quotation marks, because although Pokemon is distinctly broken down into a few series, they are not commonly recognized by most of the community. The poll above is our best attempt at making this fair, by providing all of the major sequences of the anime, with the option for you to choose "Another Specific Arc" if you must be specific.
If you need it, it is broken down as the following:
Kanto (includes Indigo League and Orange Islands)
Johto (includes Johto League and Whirl Cup arc)
Hoenn (includes Hoenn League and Battle Frontier)
Sinnoh (includes Sinnoh League)
Unova (includes BW, BW2, Episode N, and DA!)
Now, just like the last thread, this will be the ONLY place to discuss the show as a whole and which "series" is better than the other. Although massive arguments like this have decreased since this thread first opened, it still happens.
Here's an FAQ for your convenience:
Basically, the rules of this thread are the same rules applied everywhere on this board. Enjoy yourselves.

Here's an FAQ for your convenience:
Q: So...what's this thread for?
A: Pay attention. This thread is for you to voice your opinion about the show and tell us which "series" is your favorite. You can use whichever style you like (OS vs post-OS, by region, by group, etc.) to describe it for us.
Q: Okay, I like Hoenn.
A: Well, you also need to give us an explanation for why you like Hoenn over the others. If you don not give a reason outside of "I just liked it" you'll get a spamming infraction. We have a poll if you don't want to share your reasoning.
Q: Fine...I like Hoenn because Kanto was boring and Unova just sucked! A LOT!
A: Okay, well, bashing is not allowed in here, just like in the rest of the forum. You can have negative OPINIONS about other sequences of the anime, but not ATTACKS. Bashing any series, character, event, etc. will get you an infraction just like in any other part of the forum.
Q: Can I debate with people in here like in the last thread?
A: Yes, but it must be done civilly. Attacking a person directly, bashing, spamming, or simply saying that "it's just a matter of taste" is not debating, and all but the latter will get you an infraction.
Q: So-and-so is an idiot. Thunder armor was NOT a good idea at all - it was ridiculous at best! How are people so stupid?
A: Yeah, this is not allowed. Flaming other people is not allowed. Respect other's opinions and do not discuss members of the forum.
Q: The poll sucks! Why is it wrong?
A: Not everyone follows the same pattern and so this poll is reflecting certain "sequences" of the anime that can be recognized by anyone. If you want to be specific in how you recognize the structure of the series, be my guest. However, DO NOT complain about the poll. It is there simply for convenience for everyone, and it is not the topic of this thread.
Basically, the rules of this thread are the same rules applied everywhere on this board. Enjoy yourselves.
