HowHammerYou Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Favorite: Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Least Favorite: Pokemon Silver. Silver actually used to be my favorite, but after recently starting another playthrough, my adult self started noticing a whole lot of flaws that I hadn't noticed as a kid. Notably the absolutely glacial pacing of the main story until you get about halfway through the gyms (there is NOTHING going on until you get to Ecruteak), and how although there were some damn good new pokemon designs in gen 2, most of them were trash. I've come to realize that the reason I held it in such high regard for so long was the memories I had of playing it with my friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot of hype surrounding that game and its an open world game iirc. Also I feel a similar way to gen 4 pokemon that you do about silver. I still love it though for nostalgia reasons.

Also I feel a similar way to gen 4 pokemon that you do about silver. I still love it though for nostalgia reasons. I consider Legends: Arceus to be the best Pokemon game I've ever played. It's not a true open world game as the world is segregated into 5 zones according to biome, but each zone is quite large and contains a good variety of pokemon. And because the whole point of the game is catching pokemon, the world never feels boring or empty. Then there's an abundance of secondary gameplay mechanics such as Spacetime Distortions (inside which are treasure and rare pokemon), Mass Outbreaks, and Massive Mass Outbreaks happening randomly which make the world feel like it's constantly changing and there's always something to do. The main story takes about 50 hours to complete, but there's also a lively postgame that can easily keep you occupied for another 50+. I'm well over 100 hours into it and still haven't done everything in the postgame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. Game is so slow to the point of infuriating. Slow in story pacing, text speed and encounters actually pissed me off due to how long it takes to be able to even RUN. Not to mention 8 HMs, the most of any Pokémon game which srs hinders many strategies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played legends of pokemon: Arceus and I feel that it is quite an interesting game as well, much more advanced and better than any other pokemon off the pokemon series I have played in the past.

My last favorite would be Pokemon :Let's Go, Pikachu and Pokemon : Let's Go, Eevee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grungie Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 I used to think Gen3 was my least favorite, until I played Sun and Moon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 My favorite is "Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver" for nostalgia and content. My least favorite is "Pokemon Sun/Moon" for excessive hand-holding and linearity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
