Emerald is my favorite still after all this time. I'd say gen 3 has the best map in the series and the best soundtrack and both contests and the battle frontier are just a ton of fun.
>>57169649SV is up there for me in terms of gens, great selection of new mon, lots of good tunes I still go back and listen to, a story that I actually was interested in for once in the main series, and I enjoyed the nonlinearity, getting to go where I want and brute force the titans despite being nowhere near ready for them lol. The DLC was really nice too and had some of the best battles in the series.
