Probably Gen 5. Gen 6 was the jump the shark moment with Megas and KANTOOOOOOOOO. I'm not a fan of BW and I think they're very messy but they weren't effortless games.

Gen 2 is my favorite btw

this but specifically because of BW2. those games were jam packed with features like the world tournament, grotos, tons of variety that made team building fun. it truly was the last time GF gave a fuck about the franchise

The Pokemon Co. is controlled by three entities: Nintendo, Monsters Inc., and Game Freak. Nintendo doesn’t produce or develop the games. They’re just the distributor. Game Freak is responsible for Pokemon vidya.

The Pokemon IP is the most valuable media franchise on the planet. Its total revenue is well over $100 billion. But the games are made by a truly second-rate comoany who’s only in this position because they got in early like 35 years ago.


There will never be a really great Pokemon game on a modern system.

I know the games are flawed and people generally dislike games/gens past gen 5, but I still really loved Alola. It felt really alive in a weird way, and the whole region felt like a cohesive community with the whole island trial stuff.
>>
>>746047519
Alola was the last game where the main staff puts concrete effort and soul into their games
After that, it was all about dei interference and western shit slowly taking control on creative decision and GF too busy to build a game on a big console

Sword and Shield had a really nice atmosphere and characters
>>
>>746033410
I didn't like Gen 5 because it just felt like a worse Gen 1 and they straight up got rid of useful features like rematches against trainers, but I respect it because it was the last time the series really tried to do something special. Everything after Gen 5 has been enshitification at it's worst, with Gen 6 being a transitional period where it was happening (Fairy-types) but it wasn't so apparent that you could put your finger on why it was so bad.
>>
Anything past gen 7 is immediate shite because of GF’s retarded decision to cut out pokemon in the pokemon game to sell more Home subscriptions. Gen 7 was honestly not bad, but still pretty mediocre, I’ll give the ultra games points for difficulty though. Gen 6 was incomplete and rushed, ORAS was decent though (inb4 no battle frontier). Gen 5 is good only for B2W2 and the cracked OST. Gen 4 had Platnium and HGSS, Gen 3 had FrLg and emerald. I would say somewhere between gen 4 and 5.
>>
>>746048393
Vs seeker was one of the best items they ever added, genuinely a godsend. Its exclusion from HGSS to keep the shitty phone calling system from gen 2 as is was honestly a big loss for me when playing those games. All the of the complaints about the level curve could have been completely silenced if they had just conceded and added it to the game.
>>
>>746048776
I guess it's just so they could remake Gen 2 in full, but still that was kind of too much. They should've left the VS Seeker as it was in the Gen 2 remakes.

It's a retarded loss of a useful feature. It made leveling Pokemon that much more easy and convenient without having to grind to do so.

To this day, i will never understand why they removed that feature. It's not even like you had to rematch the people that wanted to fight again. It was entirely optional but very useful.

I did like Alola and S/M. I just wish it wasn't so on-rails, and had some actual dungeons.
>>
>>746047519
vanilla sun and moon are good, though the roadblocks for cutscenes can get a bit much. it was the ultra games that ruined them with basically the same amount of cutscenes but now the story's all fucked cause the abusive family story where lusamine got addicted to ayy jellyfish got paved over for the garbage that is

when Creatures handled the spin-off they were mostly good. You can trace back to Gamefreak when things revert to a not so cool state. Notice how Creatures stopped doing games like they did in gen 4 (which is probably the peak of game release)? Gamefreak got really mad people was calling them out. They also recruited people from the company that was doing 3D adjacent games to put them to no use. It's a miracle that Bandai managed to snatch a couple of titles for the Switch, probably Nintendo's hand into trying to get more devs into the franchise. Gamefreak needs to be humbled but not in a marketing way, they need a full take over or something happening internally that changes things. You read the Teraleak, people WANTS to make good things but the seats and high ups in the company make their biggest efforts into that not happening. Wind and Waves in paper sounds like really good, everything you read about their research, their server work, the scale of the game is cool. The trailer kind of reflect some of that but god knows how many cuts from these plans to the final product will happen.

They had tons of those.
>>
>>746033410
Probably gen 3. It's not my favorite, but it had acceptable graphics for its console, pushed the series forward mechanically in meaninful way, had mostly alright character Pokemon designs, (I think, I'm no expert, let me know if and how I'm wrong) and overall felt like an evolution of the series. That's not to say the content was better than gen 1 and 2, just that they genuinely tried and released something that didn't feel lazy.

>you can go from littleroot all the way to evergrande city without seeing a single screen transition

You are right, its a pity SV didnt have another year of dev time to polish the state of the game, but it is what it is. Game of extremes, incredibly fun and dogshit at the same time.

Gen 2, and arguably only barely.

Every Pokemon game since has honestly been pretty fucking cheap. The gameboy had no good RPG games, with Pokemon Silver being pretty excusable by the standards of GBC games only by virtue of most other RPG's being ports. The GBA and DS games keep up the illusion of not being essentially high profile shovelware in their production values, but compare them to anything else on the DS and the GBA and the fact that Pokemon is a inherently cheap franchise is fairly obvious. By the 3DS the illusion largely breaks, and by the Switch it's downright embarrassing.
>>
>>746033410
If you want an specific defined answer then Gen 4, specifically HG/SS, is the most likely one. It was the last game where the fantasy of the adventure truly came before the presentation, and it's late enough into the timeline where you can argue that everything before that was pretty safely a "golden age" of sorts.

On top of that Gen 5 came out with a strong reboot vibe to it, which makes the case of HG/SS even stronger. Gen 5 was also the first one where the characters became more prominent in the story, which is what led to modern pokemon game storytelling where the exploration kinda takes a secondary role over the character dramas.

unfortunately artists dont do recognizable places often, especially for old generations. It's pretty easy to find Area Zero arts, but i will never save them since it's a location from a dogshit game, and like i said i hate how modern regions feel so "unrealistic" for the fantasy world they are in. The huge crater of Paldea is extremely stupid, same goes for Wild Areas in Galar

If by dignity you mean the last time they didn't try copying some other series I'd say gen 6.
>>
>>746044553
I was waiting for the remakes to get the golds because breeding for optimal stats and moves became much easier between Gen 3 and 6. Just getting all the Pokémon in Gen 3 requires nine different games and there's no GTS to ease that; breeding for max IVs was way worse. Gen 6 was perfect for the Frontier, and we didn't get it.

I never jived with the Gen 3 remakes and I was glad to have completely checked out of modern Pokemon with the Gen 4 remakes.
I enjoyed Gen 7 because its presentation was decent and I liked the region's pokemon but when I borrowed a friend's Pokemon X to play through it to collect the mons' I was interested in, I could hardly finish it due to everything fucking else being garbage. Especially the group of chucklefucks who hand-hold you through your journey.
