Best Pokémon series?
« on: January 17, 2010, 03:39:03 pm »
I would just like to know the forums views on what the best Pokémon series is...

...I personally prefer Red / Blue, because I thought having less pokémon was better, and I love the nostalgic sound of 8-bit video game music.

This thread is not about the Pokémon spin-offs, like pinball, console games, trading card games or WiiWare titles.

I voted (Red/)Blue because that's the only game I completed.

I'm with Amphy on this one. I also vote for G/S. I loved that game - it just had everything I was looking for in a Pokemon game.

Platinum. I really liked the new things included and the enhanced graphics.

EDIT: About HGSS, it's true it's better, but something is just not right in it. I don't know exactly what...
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

I play SoulSilver, I got it from www.playasia.com, but my favorite games are still the original gold and silver games.
I like slowpoke.

I concur with the music comment, however, Crystal was my favorite because the colors were the best and it had the best plot, in my opinion.
Then again I lost touch of Pokemon as soon as it jumped to the DS.
Yeah, I know right?

You shouldn't have separated on the poll (ex. Crystal from Gold/Silver).

So, I'd say G/S/C. Best games in the series. Pretty much everything was the most awesome ever. Mainly the feel and the soundtrack.

But then again maybe HG/SS will turn out to be the best games in the series. For me that will depend on how much nostalgic I feel. Let's just see how it goes :3

Well, a friend downloaded the japanese version and patched it. It was mostly in japanese, but the main conversations (which were according to the story) and the moves were in english. Since I played Silver and Gold, I knew where to go, even if I didn't understand a thing XD.
