IMO its.

II > III > V > I > IV    (Remakes not a factor)

I agree, gen II were the best games.

Gen I had the best pokemon though, can't beat the original 151.

Really, that's your order of preference?

For me it's I = II > V > III > IV

Diamond/Pearl were the worst, but I thought Ruby/Saphire also marked a lowpoint in the franchise. Black/White to me marked a rebound in quality, but nothing will match the quality of the first 2 and the uniqueness of those two generations of Pokemon.

My agreement was only with Gen II being the best =P

I haven't clocked V yet and I also think that III/IV were pretty weak.

Well opinions are opinions.

Seems like evryone agrees IV was the worst. Not saying gen IV was bad just the worst.

Most people seem to agree II was the best. Even one guy who didn't like II, put the gen II remake as his second favorite (maybe he can't stand the retro graphics?).

I think generation 2 is pretty good. I just think that the gameplay has become more balanced and refined since then, that gen 2 had the worst story by far, and that its tied with gen 4 for the worst batch of Pokemon, if only because there are relatively few of them. Oh, and the starters were boring.

I still have a weak spot for the 8 bit graphics and chiptunes though.
