Generation 5 and it's not even close. Having been a fan since the release of the very first games that generation felt like the culmination of everything I wanted Pokémon to be.

Upped difficulty, better story, loads of new pokémon, gorgeous pixel artstyle with animated sprites, cycling time AND seasons, lots to explore post-game, infinite TMs... the only thing I seriously miss from later games was getting rid of HMs. And all of this without some special once-per-generation mechanic like mega evolutions and what-not. Just pure pokémon gameplay.

It's the peak of Pokémon for me (though Heart Gold and Soul Silver come close). And I still haven't played the sequels, is should do that sometime (I really wanna replay my original black too, but I'm so attached to my pokémon...).

Gen 3! Hoenn 4 lyfe! And yes it's mostly because it was the first one I played so it's nostalgic for me. I still really like the remakes, I think they did a great job. Both the remakes and the originals are great (although I've somehow never played Emerald lol).

I really like gen 5 too (probably my favorite pokedex), and although I think gen 7 has a few weak points, I quite like those games too :)

My favorite pokemons!

gen 1: Arcanine
gen 2: Furret
gen 3: Jirachi (all time favorite :))
gen 4: Luxray
gen 5: Reuniclus and Hydreigon
gen 6: Goodra
gen 7: Lycanroc
gen 8: Corviknight
gen 9: I haven't played it and I don't really care for any of the designs lol

i have more of an ungrounded nostalgia for two - silver was the first game of mine. yellow was the first i played, but it was my cousins. i remember being a few years old, not knowing anything at all about pokemon, running around and enjoying the environment. its a wonder i beat it.
three is the gen i was more present for, i remember keeping track of typings and paying attention to the story, sitting on the bus to school with my gba/sp on just listening to the music, not even playing

Generation 7 is my favorite!! mostly because it's where I started off playing, I were pretty late to the party - but I fondly look back to it given that I also played with an older sibling of mine^^

(I dunno! I just never thought to get a gaming console, the one I got had been gifted)

I forever love my first ever starter pokemon, Poppy [whose a primarina] my boy he is absolutely KILLING it

I'm also pretty fond of Hau! Top tier best friend as well as malasada enjoyer:-]

A large eyed creature looks at the viewer, rainbow confetti spills all around it, the legend YIPPE can be read above it a silly doodle of my favorite dragon A large eyed creature with headphones. Rainbow coloured musical notes hover all around it. we stay silly

Gen 5, because it has Kyurem, and he's my favourite Pokemon.

That being said my first game was gen 3 but honestly I didn't like the starters for this gen that much, but the presence of Raikou does bump it up a notch.
