    Wheeeeeew my favorite generation, Gen 4 is finally getting a remake with Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl. Plus another standalone title, Legends Arceus, is going to be a proper open world Pokemon game. I really need to buy a Switch just for that. Finally seeing the best Champ Cynthia return. Y'all hyped as I am???

    Could never really get into Diamond and Pearl. Not saying they are bad games, but I'll always prefer Fire Red or Emerald.

    Sapphire was dope, didn't feel the need to play Ruby after playing the other two. Loved that gen though!!

    Sapphire was the first Pokemon game I've ever played and I love Gen 3 with all my heart. But d--- DP were the first games on DS, had a lot of new functions, dope Pokemon designs and the greatest lore + legendaries+ champ. The fight and walking animations were just too slow lol

    I only played G/S/C but I love watching videos of the newer games on YouTube sometimes. I even saw the Arceus movie

    Sapphire was my first as well, or at least first I actually remember beginning to end. D&P were cool but Platinum was always my thing on the DS.

    idk how i feel about legends. The idea for an open world Pokémon seems interesting but it just looks so bland from this trailer at least.

    True there is a reason why jrpgs are never truly open world. But if it's gonna be like xenoblade I'm totally fine with that. There should be many possibilites for interesting side content in a Pokemon setting to fill up the world

    Very very hyped for Legends Arceus, but also cautious for now. Guess it's still a year or so away so plenty of time to be wowed.

    Never got into Diamond/Pearl myself. Favourite gen will always been Gen 2 and 3 for me. :wow5:

    The presentation trailer footage for Legends Arceus looks like a pretty unfinished game (that Chingling had 15 fps lol) so I sure hope they polish it up and add more stuff. Gen2 was dope, I liked Johto as a region with all its woods and temples and the possibility to visit Kanto after you beat the Johto league. Pretty much double the content. The problem was that you had limited team building options since there weren't many new pokemon added, atleast in the early game

    The first and second generation will always be my favourites.

    Still, I spent most of my time in diamond to get dakrai and shaymin with the glitch.
