I'm gonna stack remakes into their original gens. FRLG -> 1, HGSS -> 2, you get it. Let's Go doesn't exist.

Well designed region and a great place to start. Audio was using a lot more minor chords and darker progressions than any other generation and I think that adds a lot of personality to it.
>Johto
Favorite legendaries, a really well-rounded set of new mons, great audio, very upbeat and comfy adventure. Probably my favorite to return to aside from the introduction.
>Hoenn
Favorite region layout by far. I liked that a lot of the designs were more abstractly based on animals. No other generation had a similar design philosophy when it came to the mons themselves and I appreciate it a lot. Trumpets are my favorite. Battle Frontier was rad as hell and I remember maxing out my emerald playtime collecting all the gold symbols. Like 2/3 of my favorite tracks throughout the series came from this game.
>Sinnoh
So many side areas to go to, so much to see, post game content, great starters. Mt Coronet is probably my favorite dungeon in the series with the only thing I don't like about it being its reliance on HMs.
>Unova
Favorite actual region. Favorite starter trio. Loved the darker atmosphere, cities felt alive, the battle subway, pokestar studios I spent more time than most in. The transfer minigame was really cute even if incredibly annoying to migrate with.
>Kalos
Goomy line and Noivern line. I don't really care for much here in all honesty. Introducing character customization though was great but the male options fucking SUCKED.
>Alola (My entire experience of it is USUM tho)
Better character customization (though locked behind the stupid festival plaza nonsense for color dying), the battle stances/unique send outs were one of the most soulful things to date, I really liked Totems over gyms with genuinely more difficult bosses. Probably my favorite new set of Pokemon to date, absolutely love the ultra beasts as a way to break boundaries on... (1/2)
