>>47063175>Orange>Indigo>Ruby and Saphire>D&P>Battle Frontier>Johto>OrangeThe Orange Islands broke from the conventions, and let Pokemon do some crazy experimental shit. Tracy was a fuck, Brock should have been there, but fuck it, it was the filler arc that never felt like filler.
>IndigoThe good old days when the game was simple, crazy shit could happen because things weren't defined yet, and things like character development were still on the table. Also, when Sabrina turned everyone into dolls, it gave me my first boner, it hurt but felt great, 10/10, would have an impotent 7 year old boner again with.
>Ruby and SapphireHuge step down from the previous two, but had some good spirit, and May injected some freshness to the formula, even if making her a Coordinator because she got her ass handed to her fucking once was a mistake. She was my favorite companion, surpassing even Brock, and they did her dirty. I don't even know what her pokemon besides Torchic, Beautifly, and Max were.
I will be transparent, I am a petty, bitter motherfucker, and the changing of the voice actors ruined the end of this series; I don't factor that into Ruby and Sapphire, but DO for Battle Frontier.
>D&PThe best non-OG anime, but it was too formulaic to overtake the originals, and fuck you I'm still bitter about the voices changing.
>Battle FrontierEvery time someone speaks, all I feel is rage. Charizard fighting Articuno was badass, though.
>JohtoOriginal voices or not, this shit is still like, fucking, 200 or some fucking shit episodes of FUCKING NOTHING happening, like, jesus fuck. A handful are cool for what they are, like the Sumo episode, but most open weakly in bumfuck nowhere, then end weakly still in bumfuck nowhere for next week. This is the season where you came home from school, turned on Pokemon, had no fucking idea where they were, having to gauge where in the series they were entirely by if fucking Bayleaf had evolved, and still didn't know by the end.
