Play Gen 4. Gen 5 is pee pee topped with a thick helping of poo poo.

play whichever. you will enjoy yourself regardless.
any replies you get will be jokes to sway you to do something else

>Gen 5 has one bad series and one good (B/W1 and B/W2 respectively).
Do not believe /vp/. Play Gen 5 in order. It feels odd paced at times, but it's enjoyable.
The experience, at the end of the day, is completely personal.

Sinnoh
-beautiful region
-attractive layout
-average storyline
-Gen 4 is really boring

Unova
-garbage region
-gorgeous layout
-battles are not boring to watch
-Gen 5 is pretty cool

And I can't really say much for HeartGold and SoulSilver because I hate it, but the games look beautiful, and it's not boring unless you're me

Gen4 is cancer outside of Platinum. Even HGSS couldn't fix the cancer that is Johto level curve, actually they made it worse by boosting levels lategame. Get a gen5 game, BW1 if you prefer story, BW2 if you prefer mechanics and features.

B/W are good in their own right, even if the sequels are better.

>>25811132
Platinum and B2/W2

>>25811192
yeah this, I really enjoyed Gen 5. It felt like a reinvention of the series, or maybe a rejuvenation. Probably one of my favourites.

>mfw I'm completely fucking and utterly retarded and never realized 3DS has retro-compability
Don't be so hard on yourself Casey

Yeah OP, go play linear, casual Gen 5. :^)

>Casey will NEVER be real

first play heartgold/soulsilver, then platinum, then black/white and finally black/white2

>>25811132

What do you like OP?

>I like a good story

Try Black or White

>I like lots of content

Try BW2 or HGSS

>I like good gameplay

Try HGSS or Platinum

>I hate myself I want to die

Try Diamond or Pearl

Buy BW 1, then buy the sequel. Gen 5 was a solid gen all around. The 3DS also has the Pokemon Dream Radar(BW2 only) and PokeTranporter app which only the Gen 5 DS games are compatible with.

OP here

See? It isn't that hard to recommend games without turning into a genwar.
Thanks guys.

So what were the writers planning to do with Casey in the Anime? She was kind of all over the place and never actually showed up that much in Johto.

You can't really expect a gen war unless Gen 1 and 2 are brought up.

>tfw I couldn't even answer an anon's honest question about if it's worth replaying RBY again without someone white knighting the modern games, WHEN NOBODY MENTIONED THE MODERN GAMES

prototype region girl before region girls were a thing. Misty was still around so she just pops in once in a while.

But instead of her being an opponent in the league we got a fireboo with a poorly drawn face from out of nowhere. wtf, writers? this was a perfect time to show her growth and still have free win for the main character.

Would staring at that thumbnail suit your tastes more than the gif itself?

I just started a re-run or Gen 4 and honestly forgot that it has some of my favorite route music of any game.

Casey is one of the best Pokegirls because of minispats.
