Gen 4 was peak IMO, both the new Pokemon as well as the best remakes ever made.
Comment on Game Freak has been allegedly hacked, with source codes for Pokemon games reportedly leaked
Psythik@lemmy.world 4 days agoWhich is exactly why I stopped playing after Gen 2, which was the peak of the series IMO. If you want to see everything the series has to offer, just play Gold/Silver (or their remakes on the DS). No reason to waste time and money on any other Pokémon game.

Pokemon Black/White 1 & 2 are as close to that as you want. Great story, amazing songs that i still hum to this day, and the designs are as solid as Gen 1 and 2.

Radical Red and Polished Crystal are peak, in my opinion. I can’t go back to the lack of special/physical split, it’s just awful.

I really liked Prism. And I don’t know, Radical Red just played different from how I like my single player pokemon experience.

I kinda agree, but B2/W2 was actually peak Pokémon. You should give those games a go, it’s samey but polished to rubbish-bag shiny perfection.
