      Fight accepted. Silver/Gold were the epitome. You had two areas, mother-fucking Lugia, and could battle the elite four and as a bonus, wipe the floor with your rival on specific days of the week. Plus, I can memorize about 252 pokemon. More than that and it’s just a slog. Also, newly introduced day/night cycle with time passing actually meaning something? Hot damn, son, that’s lighting a Ho-oh under someone’s ass.

        I’m still on Crystal as the single best game in the entire series. All of what you mentioned plus the Suicune story added? Plus the intro of the animated sprites for Pokemon, it’s perfection.

        yea, but the gameboy color was junky at best and only relevant for 3 years or something. Gen3 we had firered/ leafgreen, the hoenn series AND 2 gamecube games - that their graphics are to me better than the switch’s releases
