5 > 7 > 3 > 6 > 4 > 1 > 2

though you should just play in order FR > HG > Emerald > Platinum > Black 1 and 2 (or just 2) > X > Ultra Sun and decide for yourself what you like. No reason to play the original gen 1 and 2 anymore

We call it mainline, and opinions vary.

From what I've seen form here and /v/, It's either HG/SS, Platinum, or Black/White version 2

Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.

To date, these games offer the most robust Pokemon experience possible. When it comes to collecting and raising Pokemon, they're completely unparalleled, and while certain games manage to surpass them in a few areas, the breadth of content on offer is extensive enough that just about anybody can find something to get invested in at any given moment.

As well, they're pretty generally popular, with online that's still active and plenty of communities online that still play and discuss them. If you don't care for online, the games emulate very well.

It's Platinum and BW2. Many of Hg/Ss's strengths relied on it being the current game. Most people aren't going to play much with features like the Pokemon Olympics or custom safari zone and so you just end up retreading gen 2 with most of its issues in tact if you play it now. Was a magical first run though if you played it at the time it was out.

Emerald on GBA. Either Platinum or HG/SS on DS. The differences between the two are small enough to leave it to preference. Hell, do both with 2 DS's for the full kino experience.

Black and White if you are okay with no old pokemon showing up. HGSS or Platinum if you are not okay with that. BW2 is better experienced after BW1 in my opinion and I'm the minority that genuinely prefers BW1 over BW2. The story in BW2 is a direct sequel so you won't know any of the characters and why the plot progressed the way it did, but the pokemon distribution is more varied (and includes older pokemon) so most people prefer it. I still liked BW1 better overall.

If you want the ideal gameplay/content experience then the games you want to play are Emerald, Platinum, HeartGold or SoulSilver, Black or White, and Black 2 or White 2.

It depends on what you value more:
Want the core idea of Pokemon?
Firered/Leafgreen
Want the most amount of battles, good story, good post game?
Emerald
>Want amazing story, a lot of dungeons, post game, meaningful characters and don't care about some odd looking mons, bad sprite work and linear progression?
B2W2
Want just good everything all around?
Platinum
Want the most amount of post game with activities outside of battles?
HGSS
Want "le olde gaem feel"/keeping true to the first games?
Crystal

Personally I want to say Black and White 2, but the generation itself had some huge flaws that can't be simply ignored

I hate how this question will never be answered and just dissolve into mindless shitposting every time because Gamefreak has this retard one step forward, two steps back mentality to making games.

More like 1 step forward, 2^n where n = the number of generations - 4 steps back.

At the top, Heart Gold/Soul Silver

Next you have Platinum, Black 2/White 2

And finally Emerald (an honorable mention for Crystal)

Heart gold is fucking trash.
Emerald is the goat
Gen 5 was so close yet so far
The rest are okay
Gen 1 is fucking horrible though

If this thread hasn't already made it clear, there's literally no such thing as "the best" pokemon game, at least as far as /vp/ is concerned. If you want to join the fun, play any or all of the following games and rage at anyone who says your favorite is trash
>Emerald
>Platinum
>HeartGold/SoulSilver
>Black 2/White 2

Its actually Black and White 2
but I also recommend Platinum, HG/SS,and FR/LG.
I would recommend Emerald but I have a positive bias towards hoenn because I got it and Mario Sunshine at the same time for max childhood tropical kino vibes.
