Who's your favorite Medabot, Takao?

You can never go wrong with a KBT, or KWG (Metabee, and Rokusho's model line). But Greed is pretty cool looking:

Your opinions do nothing but give Wiseblade more power.
 
I must be honest, I think Red and Blue are way too fundamentally flawed to be called the best of anything.

I see the wisdom in your GS placing, though. :)

There's just a good feeling you get when you play Kanto games.

I'm not a 151 only guy but man nostalgia's a powerful thing. Also not the only thing because goddamn do gold/silver/crystal not hold up at all.

Yep, I didn't forget Crystal, it doesn't make the top list at all because it doesn't have Mareep in it.

Johto's problem isn't with the Pokémon it added for me, it's how it feels. They sort of hit a slump there and didn't get out of it until the Gen 1 remakes. Since then their games have been somewhere between outstanding and great.

Whatchu talkin' bout, Man God?

Espeon and Dunsparce alone make up for every Gen II clunker.

R/S/E is, to this day, still my favorite games in the series. While I really enjoyed both R/B/Y and G/S/C and played them a LOT, R/S/E just was so amazing and innovative technically that it blew away the other two generations. Not to mention that this game was probably the first game I read about in a Nintendo magazine LONG before it arrived in Europe. They were also the games I played the most and I could still easily replay them time and time again to this day. Something about them just feels so... perfect.

Black 2 and White 2 are amazing as well, much better than the fourth gen, which I really disliked (the physical/special split was the best thing to come out of that). Black 2 and White 2 just have something that D/P and, in my opinion, B/W lacked. I'm not quite sure what it is, but B2/W2 just feels far more polished.

Same, I love Kanto. There;s just a charm to it that I can't explain

SAY WHAT?

You posted Power Rangers, you win the thread.
 
What is going on here? *contemplates leaving to go play games and write instead*

Anyway Gen 4, specifically Platinum is still the best in the series.
