Does anyone remember the good old days of encountering their first pidgey on route 1 in generation 1? Or defeating Red on Mt. Silver in generation 2? Perhaps the Regis of generation 3? The exhilarating mountains of generation 4's Sinnoh? It seems to me that the Pokemon franchise has a long way before it comes even near death. I myself have not played any of the new generation 5 games. I must say that I did enjoy HeartGold. It reminded me of my earlier years in the second generation: crossing from Johto to the old Kanto region. What is everyone's favourite generation?

I started out with Gen II when I first got a Gameboy, and didn't play any of the first gen games for quite a while after that... then I got Leaf Green and Sapphire. Oh my god. So many hours in those two little cartridges. I had a couple of hundred hours on Leaf Green alone, and more on Sapphire. Gen III is the way to go. Back when everything was still new and different enough that it was a fresh start, but before there was seven squintillion pokemon across 5 regions. That and it blew me away with the difference between the GBA and GBC games. It was like a whole new game back then. "Woah, so many colours and details!"
