If I were to go on a Pokemon binge, which versions should I choose for each generation? I'm not hardcore, mostly just want to enjoy the main story and maybe some of the non-grindy post-game.
I've played basically everything portable from RBY to BW (never had GC/N64), including the TCG game for Game Boy and FRLG/HGSS, then went out of the loop completely.
Gen 1 - probably FRLG again, as I take it Let's Go is not really a remaster but a different thing altogether? Gen 2 - HGSS seemed to me a perfect GSC at the time. But I'm especially uncertain about 3 and 4 - how do Emerald and Platinum stack up against ORAS and BDSP?
