Which gen had the most fun, balanced meta? This includes just OU and UU, by the way. The other tiers fluctuate too much overall.
My vote goes to Gen 4
>Weather is viable without being broken, thanks to the newly introduced weather-enhancing stones
>Physical/special split helped a lot of weaker Pokemon
>Pokemon like Aerodactyl, Electivire, Weezing, Machamp, and even Ninjask were top-tier threats, meaning that weaker niche Pokemon could still see play
>There wasn't really any overcentralizing meta. Unless you consider suicide-leads a meta
>OU wasn't >50% legendary/mega evolution
>Meme strats could actually be relatively successful. Weather strats were still usable.
>No team preview yet
I just know that the Gen 4 remakes are going to be a farcry from the relative calmness of Gen 4 originally.
