Seconded, if only because they're the only Pokemon games I've ever played, but from what I can gather they were the better releases of the series.Baby Tea said:

Red/Blue/Yellow are the simplest to play and fun once you get into them but I'm not a fan of the caves near the start, I like ruby/Sapphire because of all the secrets and stuff and although I haven't played the newest ones I'm sure the same could be said for them.
Imo yellow is the only way to go, its far better than blue and red which are just remakes of each other with equally annoying but different colour schemes. It also doesnt ask you to take interest in anymore than the original/only 151 pokemon, it also doesnt force/encourage you to take part in flimsy contests that do nothing to add to the experience of the game. And lastly yellow is actually challenging the first time you play it and hence the faint but noticable sense of accomplishment when you slaughter your first gym fight, something which all of the later games lack.
everything before crystal was good because I loved kanto and Johto was ok, Crystal was awesome because you could go to kanto and kick the harder gym leaders asses and ever face off against Red (sheer genius). But when it hit 3rd generation it got shit
Because the graphics of the older games suck big ones try out Leaf green or Fire Red (remakes of the original red and blue) because thats when pokemon was a challenge now its just too easy

I would get Yellow, but they're not easy to find so you should get Platinum. It's the newest one and it's a whole lot of fun.

Indeed,but Fire Red and Leaf Green aren't that easy to find either.I really want them though since,they were the best ones yet.
Screw both Gold AND Silver, get Crystal. All the Pokemon in both versions on one game, the Pokemon have actual animation, plus everything that made Gold and Silver the best Pokemon games ever IMO.YukoValis said:
And you can pick a girl in that one too if you wanted.
I've only played Red/Blue, then I picked up Diamond/Pearl recently. It was a blast from the past to me, was like replaying my childhood. Some things to note
The gameboy ones obviously have worse graphics, but there isn't so much bullshit. Also, the gameboy ones have 151 pokemon, which is probably enough. I find the pokemon to be more interesting in the early ones, the new pokemon seem like they just slapped some shit together and called it a monster.
Regardless, the new games are good and I don't see a reason NOT to start with them to be honest.
