Which Generation is Better?

[pkmn Trainer Ruby]

Which Generation do you perfer:

1st Gen(Red Blue Green Yellow)


2nd Gen(Gold Silver Crystal)


3rd Gen(Ruby Sapphire Emerald)

4th Gen(Diamond Pearl)

My personal fave is EMERALD, the 3rd gen

 

[Warfare]

I personally like the third generation.

 

[stu770]

I really liked the second generation because you get to go back to a previous region.

 

[Narutopokedude]

I really like Crysatl, and emerald version, also Diamond

I'm going to go with 2nd gen because in Crystal you could go to kanto and johto

 

[Dark Arceus]

2nd Gen forever FTW.

 

[Highor]

I like third generation, because you have the remakes and yet another new region. And R/S/E/FR/LG brought to us the best graphics upgrade, since G/S/C is just painting the old ones, and D/P seems to me a bigger R/S/E/FR/LG only.

 

[Emperor Time]

At the moment it would have to be the third generation.

 

[Meg Is Hoenn's Champ]

I personally prefer Pokemon from all of the generations except for Pokemon D/P,To me the Pokemon started looking a bit weird and more based on aliens then mythical creatures or animals...If I had to choose just one I would choose the 3 Gen though.

Kanto! Awesome, just awesome, with Blastoise, Mewtwo, and Magmar. Don't forget Missingno.! Can't forget Missingno.

 

[EmeraldLeafBlade]

Generation four, defiantly. The games are the best in my opinion. You could go to Kanto in gen 2, but it was way too easy. There's also a wi-fi in D/P, which gives playing after the E4 an actual point.

[intergalactic platypus]

Honestly, the only games I really didn't like were R/S/E. But I loved G/S/C so 2nd gen it is

 

[Chibbichan]

1st gen all the way. Classic Pokemon. But 4th gen is also good because we go back to 1st gen as well as 4th gen.

 

[ironknight42]

2nd gen just for old times sake and the 4th gen wasn't bad at all

 

[Drake Pokétrainer]

I kinda like them all. But I think I like the 1st and the 2nd the most.
Well I started with blue so the 1st has always been there. And the 2nd was in the golden age when things improved a lot.

 

[purple_absol709]

2nd gen for Johto AND Kanto, and also Meganium.

3rd gen isn't bad either, with FRLG. I'm nota big fan of Hoenn, though. And I'm not a giant Gen 4 fan because I don't have a DS anyway and it makes me jealous...*sob*

 

[Mr. Mudkip]

3rd gen was and will always be the best.

 

[trapezechimpanz]

It depends on how you are looking at it. From a graphics and gameplay point of view - it would be either Fourth Generation, or Third Generation. If you are looking at originality, and design First Generation and Second Generation win.

In my opinion, First Generation is the best. It was original had a nice story, and all the Pokemon in it were spectacular - a lot of my favorites come from there. Second Generation is my all time favorite of the games, but First wins in "best" due the fact of it being amazing all around.

 

[RagTag]

2nd gen hands down

 

[Krug]

Oh yeah, also look at the rivals in each game, in 1st and 2nd, you didn't have those namby pamby rivals you get now. Though our red haired friend from G/S/C didn't keep his personality all the way, he could still be considered mostly a bad person. Gary (Gen. 1) was just sadistic, there were no lessons learned just a guy who wants to beat and make fun of you. He made jokes about death in a graveyard! A GRAVEYARD! Thats how your rival should be not some goody two shoes who gives gifts! I want the sadisticness!

 

[Sprock]

probably the 1st gen, though the 4th gen was pretty close to matching it.

2nd gen was the worst imo quality-wise. johto was a boring region, and kanto was totally watered down. I take quality over quantity, thank you.
