>>49488583From best to worst:
V I II VI III IV VII VIII
Gen V is where Pokemon peaked
Gen I has the freshest experience
Gen II is the best sequel game (second to BW2)
Gen VI had the best online experience until the GTS spam
Gen III is just comfy, currently replaying FRLG :D
Gen IV was fun to play multiplayer but was slow as shit
Gen VII was the start of the decline in effort
Gen VIII is just soulless garbage
