I chose 3. Was sooo close to choosing 2 but I played so much more Emerald than I did Silver when I was younger and I just preferred the Pokemon from Emerald! I really really liked my Feralgatr enough to transfer it over from gen to gen.
Generation 1 (Red/Blue/Yellow/etc)
Generation 2 (Gold/Silver/Crystal/etc)
Generation 3 (Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald/etc)
Generation 4 (Diamond/Pearl/Platinum/HG&SS/etc)
Generation 5 (Black&White 1&2/etc)
Generation 6 (X/Y/OR/AS/etc)
Generation 7 (Sun/Moon/etc)
Hands down gen 3! The graphics were a huge step up at the time, from vibrant colors to hot springs and cable cars. I loved the previous gens, but this was huge to me. Not to mention the introduction of contests, bike mechanics, differing storylines, a rival who wasn't mean, and secret bases. While I enjoy the newer games (not so much dia/pearl or bw) I think it's going to be difficult for me to have a new favorite gen!

Gen 3 all the way! Pokemon Sapphire is the only game that I actually broke by playing it too much. The internal battery has run dry.
Gen 2. I grew up with gen 1 and 2 and honestly gen 2 blew me away at the time. 2 regions to explore, 16 badges, 2 dexes.
Just an insanely complex game for its time and still the best imo.
Gen 1 hands down. Grew up with it and can still oddly remember all 150 Pokemon names through the rap song...

It's hard to choose between Gen3 and Gen4. Gen3 definitely had my favorite music, but Gen4's gameplay seemed a bit more fun and imaginative.
My favorite pokemon generation is gen 2 without a doubt. I began play when gen 1 came out, and i do love gen 1, but gen 2 has a special place in my heart. I remember falling in love with the day/night cycle and the acorns that you gave to Kurt to be made into pokeballs. Now question, do some of you have a favorite generation in terms of the games but then have a different favorite generation in terms of the show?
Gen III hands down. Also their remakes were also the best so far in the series. Probably one of the best plots. And the last game that didn't suffer from long boring cut scenes.
oof, a hard decision between gen 3 and gen 4, but i went with gen 3! i still remember the first time going against the elite four and getting my ass handed to me by phoebe
i’ve replayed gen 3 so many times, everything is ingrained into my memory - and i definitely agree that ORAS was one of the best remakes they’ve done to date!
still not as bad as fighting cynthia tho, she came for my fuckin neck every single time!
gen 4 remake is gonna be WILD
Gens 3 and 5 are tied for me, 4 is closely behind and Gen 2 is really something special.
