My personal favourite is pokemon x and pokemon emerald but interested to hear others

---

For older pokemon games, I loved playing Pokemon Stadium and Pokemon Snap. I would say Pokemon Shining Peral is my current favorite pokemon game.

---

That's tricky but I would say Sword/Shield, Mystery Dungeon, and Legends Arceus

---

Best pokemon game of all time ever? Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky. Other than that, Pearl and Alpha Sapphire are definitely up there. I think I'm also probably one of the only people that likes X and Y, I rlly don't mind that they're easy hahaha

Ultra Moon is my favorite, even though I haven’t actually played it because I kept it in plastic and played Ultra Sun instead, because I’m weird like that, lol... My reasoning went something like this: I much prefer Ultra Moon, so I wanna save it in case I need something to lift me up when I’m really down, because opening up a fresh copy of my favorite Pokémon game could be great for that, so I’ll just play Ultra Sun since I want to play the game but can’t justify buying the same game twice and want to experience the version exclusives from both games. I’ve actually still got X in plastic for the same reason. Oh, also so that I could make mistakes while playing Y and Ultra Sun, and then later correct those mistakes with X and Ultra Moon if I felt like doing that—that’s another reason.

As for the reasons why Ultra Moon (although Ultra Sun is the game I actually play) is my favorite: First of all, it’s because this was the last game where ALL Pokémon were available. And, secondly, because the two Pokémon banes of my existence—TMs and HMs—are not an issue in the Alola games, with them being the first games where you don’t need HMs and, I believe, the last games where TMs were infinitely reusable. They’re perfect! But it must be the Ultra games, not regular Sun and Moon, because the Ultra Wormhole is awesome.

I embarked on an epic journey in Ultra Sun where I decided to try to obtain every single form of every single Pokémon in existence in my boxes in that game WITHOUT doing any transferring myself from any other games and without trying to negotiate or beg for trades from anyone. I could ONLY catch whatever Pokémon were available in game, and get the other Pokémon from the GTS by just checking in whenever I could and scrambling to try to get whatever I needed when it randomly became available. And I managed to get every single Pokémon (not counting Mythicals, because I think they weren’t even allowed on the GTS), and every single form of every single one of those Pokémon, this way, except for these four: Unown X, Icy Snow Vivillon, Sandstorm Vivillon, and Fancy Vivillon. That’s it! So I’ll always be really proud of this game for that reason, too :)

Edit: I just had to come back to this post because, even though I haven’t played Gen 8, I just remembered that I heard that they actually made a PERMANENT Exp. Share be in effect all the time in those games, and I’m absolutely horrified by that. I never expected that to happen, but now that’s another thing I’ve gotta mention I’m grateful isn’t in Ultra Moon.

Soul silver, or diamond

My favorite pokemon game is Alpha Sapphire. It's beautiful graphically, the story is similar to the originals but with some additions from Emerald, the DexNav (gods this is one of my favorite features ever added), being able to fly on Mega Latias/Latios, fast transport for certain parts of the game, has hours of gameplay, and a ridiculous level of replayability, a full Pokedex and secret bases! I highly recommend it.

i like all the ones i have played but mine is favorite is pokemon colosseum loved the story line on that one well what i played of
it

---

my favorites are black/white or Pokémon soulsilver

---

When I was a kid loved the mystery dungeon saga, especially the one that the grovyle is the bad charscter and turns to be the good one, other than that probably the best for me is pok emerald

---

Colosseum due to its difficulty in comparison to the others. You're only allowed to use about 50 mons, and you'll most likely be underleveled for the majority of the game. While XD Gale of Darkness has significant QoL improvements, you can cheese the last few battles by using shadow Snorlax and Lapras as walls. Shadow Half, which is Super Fang on steroids, is available from Swellow and Electabuzz. But I'm digressing.

Each admin in Colosseum has a distinct and well-thought-out strategy. The teams in the two final story battles in Colosseum are incredible. You can tell the developers understood at least double battle synergy, if not the intricacies of competitive battling. There is also no physical/special split. It's rough by today's standards, but I keep coming back to it.
