With Sun & Moon I'll go back to Pokemon once again. Last game I played was X when it was released, years ago.

What's the best game in the series? I want to play while waiting for Sun & Moon but I don't know what to pick.

I have yet to play the remakes (FR/LG, HG/SS, OR/AS), I didn't touch any of them (I didn't see the appeal when my childhood memories of the old version where still very vivid).

Also I never played any of the director cut's versions, I only got the initial release and Emerald/Platinum and such looked like dirty money grabbin' by Nintendo. Even as I child I thought that Pokemon Yellow was a scam (ok, I was also a bit jealous about that Pikachu).
