I care about team building, rivals and the final stretch. Black and HeartGold are the best the series got.

1. Pokémon HeartGold Version Game · 2009

   Walking Pokémon and the Kanto postgame, peak.

2. Pokémon Black Version Game · 2010

   Best story and rival the series has had.

3. Pokémon Black Version 2 Game · 2012

   Gym order and post-game finally feel earned.

4. Pokémon Platinum Version Game · 2008
5. Pokémon Emerald Version Game · 2004
6. Pokémon Crystal Version Game · 2000
7. Pokémon Red Version Game · 1996

18. Pokémon Sun Game · 2016
19. Pokémon Brilliant Diamond Game · 2021

    Real-time battles are a risky, fun swing.

21. Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! Game · 2018
22. Pokémon Scarlet Game · 2022

    Great open world, a rough technical mess.
