On the pomemon game teir rankings I kinda wanna know what made you split up games of the same ¿Release? Or generation? Is it the split of what pokemone were in each? Or is there more to it?

I tried to explain most of the splits in the tags but to recap:

-crystal makes the top of A tier over G/S cuz it's the first game you can choose a gender. Since I played all the Pokemon games as they released you can probably figure out why it holds a special place for me. I loved all the other additions to it as well.

-yellow is higher cuz while red was my first yellow is the one that holds my heart of the original games. Pikachu was adorable, getting all 3 starters rules and team rocket was there.

-let's go Eevee is higher cuz I have an extreme love for Eevee and also Eevee gets way way better unique tutor moves. Also ever since yellow I wanted to play that but actually with the Eevee oak was intending to give you. While let's go felt like a pale imitation of the Kanto games for the most part it did scratch that itch. Also did I mention Eevee is my favorite Pokemon 20+ years running? I have like. An Eevee shrine consisting of 30+ Eevee and eeveeloution plushies, pins and other memorabilia.

-platinum is there cuz the fixes to sinnoh, which was already my favorite region at the time, with the additional elements (namely the spear pillar scene ones, distortion world and giratina-o) firmly cement it as the GOAT for me, even if some of the issues of the prior games still slipped thru (ever close combat a Chansey?) They even made Dawn's outfit way cuter and a bit more appropriate for the sinnoh weather like- it's good. The best, even.

Aaand I believe that's all the discrepancies? If you had further questions I'd be happy to explain my decisions.

Fav pomemon?

Hello!

I'm sorry if expect you expect a one-word answer, but I don't seem to be capable of those. I'm ashamed of how long it is, as I realised I had a lot I really liked, and I don't know if I feel strongly enough about any of them specifically to warrant promotion to favourite.

Prepare yourself:

Such a question to ask, and so many to choose!

Being wholly indecisive, I have several answers to give:

1. It'll seem strange but I don't remember ever having a favourite Pokémon. It was the people that interested me the most, their quirks and personalities. There being Pokémon was a means to an end.

2. At the same time, I had a soft spot for Pokémon that, once evolved, just looked like fatter versions of their previous selves:

• Pikachu and Raichu

• Clefairy and Clefable

• Jigglypuff and Wigglytuff

• Chansey and Blissey

• Marill and Azumarill

3. Out of love for the anime, all the Pokémon Ash, Misty, Brock, Jessie and James had from Kanto to Johto, but especially Pikachu, Meowth, Butterfree, Psyduck, Vulpix, Togepi, Lickitung, Victreebel, Horsea, Lapras and Snorlax.

4. My mom's favourite's still remain Vulpix, Ninetales, Gastly, Haunter, Gengar, Ponyta, Rapidash, Horsea, Seadra, Staryu, Starmie, Eevee, Vaporeon, Jolteon and Flareon, so them too.

5. Vileplume, not only it belongs to my main girl Jessibelle, and is capable of holding a cup of tea at last, but because it sounds like a Cockney flower girl, like Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady.

Vyyyyyulploooooom!!!

6. My favourite film is The Power of One, so Lugia, Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. I always preferred Pokémon Silver to get Lugia at the earliest.

7. Mewtwo and Mew for giving us the only film based on the games' plot.

8. I'm still stuck on Johto being 'new', because no following generation has ever made me that excited. These days fans expect another generation every three or four years, but then it was genuinely surprising for there to be a sequel.

What, you mean there are more of them?!

All of that set. Particularly Mareep, Flaaffy, Ampharos, Wooper and Quagsire. Never once played a game without them on my team.

9. Groudon. Can't remember why. I just know I played Ruby a lot more than Sapphire.

10. I quite like Xerneas's delicacy, but they gave it a female voice in the Diancie film.

It's a stag!

11. Shaymin when a hedgehog, and not the mouthy film one that slags off Ash.

12. Eeveelutions, although it still niggles there wasn't a Grass type in the First Generation that needed a Leaf Stone.

13. Houndoom, the dog of Satan!

We have a lot of folklore about demonic, fire-breathing dogs in England, so it makes me feel at home.

14. Sabrina is my favourite Gym Leader as she has a backstory, so Abra, Kadabra, and Alakazam.

Everyone had Alakazam! He laid waste to enemies!

15. Jigglypuff! There ain't no party without Jigglypuff. I never knew why the posters had her dark pink with green eyes whereas the anime version was light pink with blue eyes, but I preferred that.

16. Snubbull for being adorably gruff and grumpy looking yet still being a girl in the series. I liked the set up of Jessie and James having a cat and a dog. Her owner looked just like my nan too.

That's where she went!

17. The sort of bizarre freaks there were in the First Generation that you don't get anymore, where you'd just stare at them in disbelief.

Mr. Mime, the slave of Dame Ketchum.

A mime artist!

There are female ones!

It was called 'Marcel' in Red and Blue, after Marcel Marceau, so was probably a Frenchman.

Jynx, the slave and possible wife of Santa.

An opera singer!

It's got armour-plated bosoms!

It's from The Ring Cycle!

To this day I wonder where that man in Cerulean City got his.

If from Johto, why is it a Kanto Pokémon?

18. Slowpoke and Slowbro, for their Psyduck-esque bossed-out expression.

19. Litwick, Lampent and Chandelure. Interesting idea.

20. Bulbasaur was my first ever Pokémon, so it will always be special, even more so because it was erased by an Xploder cheat cartridge! As was the Mew I had, and you had to attend the download then!

Rest in peace.

21. Babies, so Pichu, Cleffa, Igglybuff and Azurill, but not Mime Jr. or Smoochum.

I can't believe they try and make Mime Jr. 'cute'.

It's a clown! It's evil!

Smoochum is alright, but it's a duck.

Isn't it?

A duck with the haircut of a mediæval page.

22. Gible. Not just Ash's, which brightened up the series and always came across as far more knowing than it let on, but the one Lyra and that fella she was with had, because it honked when it fell over!

23. Cofagrigus for being Tutankhamun's sarcophagus. It's surprising James didn't have one. Every time it came out, it could've stuffed him inside, but I suppose that doesn't fit with such a humourless era.

24. The Pikachu character, though I went right off Emolga when it was caught by Iris.

Togedemaru is the anarchic one, does what it wants and doesn't care.

25. Cats, especially Espurr because of the noise it makes, and being all alone in that old woman's house.

26. I like Empoleon's design. It looks to be wearing a doily for a waistcoat, but Barry is a dickhead!

27. Hoppip, Skiploom and Jumpluff. Useless in battle, but they're so sweet!

28. Shinx, Luxio and Luxray: thunder cats!

29. Raikou, Entei and Suicune, but especially Raikou for it's colours. I still remember the first time I ran into one in the grass of Johto, and being frightened as to what it was coming at me.

30. Magmar for the classic volcano war with Charizard, though slightly spoiled by speculating that it too is a duck.

31. Tough Pokémon like Gyarados, Dragonite and Tyranitar that are difficult to obtain, worth it, and have to be given double weakness to make it fair for everyone else.

Why is Gyarados a Flying type?

32. I do like Type:Null and Silvally as they remind me of Final Fantasy foes, but 'Type:Null' is one of the worst names there's ever been.

33. Zeraora, even if it does looks more like a Digimon having gone through Golden Armour Energise.

34. Cubone wears the skull of its dead mother! Marowak is her avenger!

Brings out the emo in me.

35. I realise how strange this is, but Tangela. I think because the only one you see in the Indigo League is Erika's, so it had mystery. Not to mention not being able to see its face.

It wears shiny red shoes!

Another Grass Pokémon who can't have a cup of tea with no arms!

I couldn't stop entertaining the idea of a Pomemon Diamond and Pearl remake and it got away from me

I was thinking about it, as it is highly possible since it’s been 10 years since the games came out already, and there was a LOT to Sinnoh in and out of the core games. Plus the original games were very broken and have now been rendered mostly unplayable due to server shutdowns and incompatibility with sync up to other games. That said… heres some things that Id love to see in the remakes that I loved in the old games or things that could be improved upon:

Dawn

3D DISTORTION WORLD

CANALAVE CITY AND FLORAMA TOWN NIGHT SONG REMAKES I WILL LITERALLY START CRYING

AND MOUNT CORONET’S SONG

Plus all those dang legendaries XD What if they all had post-game side-stories?

If the battle area was HUGE and had all sorts of cool areas to explore all free-range like in Alola

If they brought back the casino jk

MEGA (Prof- Mega?!) Except theres an actual reason instead of the stupid alternate universe copout like maybe Cyrus (That was his name right?) makes this insane machine to increase Dialga’s power or to get to the distortion world and it blows up. Voila. Suddenly mega.

AND THEN SYCAMORE WILL HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT LIKE AN ORIGIN STORY BECAUSE DIDNT HE USED TO WORK UNDER PROF ROWAN IN SINNOH OH MY GOSH

AND THEN HE FOLLOWS YOU ON YOUR JOURNEY OH MY GOSH THATD BE SO PRECIOUS

Empoleon XD

More fire types because there were literally only like 2 in the whole entire game

Combining things from Platinum like that princess character and the battle tower

UNDERGROUND IN 3D

That Pokepal park or whatever it was called combined with Pokemon Amie to bring you Nintendogs jk

Chairs jk

The old chateau and mansion Because ghosts

The swamps XD

AN ACTUAL JUNGLE AREA WITH THE ACTUAL SAFARI GAME FOR STANKIN ONCE PLEEEEAAASSEEEEEE

Cynthia

The abolishment of those dumb “one hp havks” and all those cheat codes Fantima must have used to get like 15 critical hits in a row

ALSO Pokemon Contests And you can choose to opt out of the League and go for alternate paths for once jk

Barry lol

Different clothes because they had different clothes between Dp and Platinum right? Dawn had the winter outfit

AN ACTUAL DAY CARE

THINK OF THE JOY WHEN YOU DONT HAVE TO USE DEFOG AND CAN INSTEAD TRY TO NAVIGATE THROUGH A SLIGHTLY VISIBLE FOGGY AREA INSTEAD

AND THINK OF THE ELATION IN YOUR HEART WHEN THE GAME ACTUALLY MOVES AT A BEARABLE PACE AND NOT STANKIN TWO MILES AND HOUR

Unique locations and side stories to explore for eah legendary I know I said that already but A SHAYMIN EVENT MANAPHY WHERE YOU EXPLORE THE TEMPLE UNDER THE SEA GIRATINA AND THE DISTORTION WORLD A TEAM UP WITH LOOKER WHERE YOU GO AND DISCOVER HEATRAN THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS THERES LIKE 500 OF THESE SINNOH LEGENDARIES Just in a way where theres secrets in game like in Zelda or whatever where you uncover the legendaries yourself and not through those stupid events because theres tons of them anyway and it makes it feel so stupid and not special anymore that just anyone can get a Phione or whatever

And Riley!!! I loved that kid! He was the only one that actually worked with me in battle And oh right! You teamed up woth people along your journey! That was so nice

Ride Pokemon in the cliff and mountain areas

Poketch!!! Except more useful, I guess Maybe with minigames you can play with friends I dunno And connected to global trade

And didnt some of the gyms have a unique design like in BW2? They could do that again with puzzles in 3D even. Thatd be confusing but fascinating

Different pokemon between night and day

The battle restaurant

CRESSELIA

And the red Gyarados event too! Maybe a combination with the whole Pokemon Ranger thing, too. There was a LOT connected to the Sinnoh generation/universe Poffin cooking minigame? Maybe an option to choose character as Dawn/Lucas or one’s own character?

HELP ME I CANT STOP!!! ITS BEEN TEN YEARS THATS IMPOSSIBLE I AM NOT THAT OLD!!!

I NEEEEEEEEDD THISSSS
