I stopped after Gen 2 but picked up Heart Gold when it came out and was impressed by the advances in the core RPG system and got really into Gen 4 online battles while only ever using Pokemon up to gen 2. I love the core concept but wish they'd make a seperate series for adults, doesn't need to be darker or whatever, just a more quality game for fans who have been here for 20 years. We're still the ones buying the most merch
If you're ever interested in playing another one for some reason, I'm pretty confident in saying that Black2/White2 are the best games in the series. They basically nailed down the current RPG mechanics in the Heart Gold generation of games, then spent the next generation on nothing but polish and boatloads of variety. Very few pokemon are outright bad, battles are sped up, trainers don't fuck around for once.

I totally agree, and Heartgold is probably the best one so nice choice lol.
Hopefully, Pokemon Legends fills that role but I'm not going to hold my breath.
Heart Gold slapped so fucking hard. Said JRPG/MMO addict partner from our other conversation. She got soul silver and we'd battle every day
