Yeah man, I wish we all still used Netscape 1.0. I mean, who needs CSS?

I stopped using firefox because I like not having my computer's memory being demolished.
A Wild Ninetails appeared.

Just buy more RAM! I have 8GB!

...and my extensions. Right? Right?!
I only made them for self-validation.
I use some of your extensions. I stopped using the Animal Crossing music one because it would auto-play every hour but it seems to have been fixed.

As in "Heathcliff"
Look like they are trying to rushing out with legendary pokemon for us to download, so I assume that they are getting ready for Generation 6 soon.

Would be an improvement over Chrome.
I don't even know why I'm bothering, since I've made my opinions pretty clear before...
Region
1) RSE - Hoenn perfectly captures a sense of adventure and exploration that constantly had me coming back to the game. It always felt like there was something more to find just around the corner.
2) BW - Unova is huge. Pretty much every single route or point of interest has some mildly obscured hidden section that doubles its size, encouraging exploration. If BW2 can build on this, then it's pretty much guaranteed to top RSE's Hoenn.
3) DPP - Sinnoh is quite big as well, but navigating the region is a major pain with all the HM check-gates everywhere.
4) RBY - The game felt sufficiently large when playing through the story, but Kanto has almost zero postgame content.
5) GSC - You all should know why by now.
Characters
1) BW - Only cast with anything even resembling depth.
2) RBY - Instantly recognisable, Blue is an amazing rival
3) DPP - Cynthia and Barry carry the game.
4) RSE - Steven Stone deserved better.
5) GSC - I hate Silver, Lance isn't champion material and the Johto Gym Leaders are boring.
Plot
1) BW - The only one with a plot.
2) RBY - Better thematically than the other games
3) DPP - meh.
4) RSE - Poké-Gang war should have been more entertaining.
5) GSC - Team Rocket again? ZZZZZZZ. BW2 can only really pull it off because Team Plasma actually had an arc in the first game.
Poké-design
1) DPP - Empoleon is the best ever. a lot of the other designs are great too.
2) BW - Actually delivered a truckload of new favourites.
3) RSE - I can't think of anything that I don't like.
4) RBY - Pretty much split 50/50 between iconic and butt-ugly.
5) GSC - has more bad designs than good.
Music
1) BW - what they did with the music in this game is incredible.
2) HGSS - I didn't really like the soundtrack the first time around, but the HGSS remixes nailed it.
3) RSE - Dat trumpet
4) RBY - Iconic, but simple. FRLG tried to fix this but just made everything sound too busy.
5) DP - Not bad by any means, I just don't like it as much as the others.

No you don't.
Tumblr is a good GIF resource as long as you stay away from the ones with filters. Other than the URL and small, barely noticeable watermark on that GIF, nothing gives it away as a Tumblr GIF.

I think he's the random guy who gives you a horrible Hoenn starter in HGSS.

Hmm... Might as well as post my own version.

This image shall explain them all. xD
Maybe I should make a special exception for Turtwig, too.
Gen 2 is my favorite, but indeed.

To counteract Cuteness Overload I must become Rage Overload
RAAAAAAGE!
Feel free to have some rage overload. In the meantime...

Fighting the power with filthy lies, this is no way to win a war.
Oh and my main pokebro who plays these games with me used Lumineon for his water type in his first DP run through, pretty much the only reason I remember it.
You poor misguided soul. Gen II shouldn't be anyone favourite anything, except "to hate on".

Then I'll ask you about my chart. What do you think of it?
I think you're needlessly hard on Gen I, but I like that Gen II was always below Gen III and often part of the bottom two.
