I'm almost always playing pokemon when watching TV/movies/downtime at work. Living dex in each game, which is why I'm salty about Dexit. Spent way too many hours trading between my games for living dex's and now I can't even have one in the game. I did cheat for Sun/Moon/USUM by hacking in off-the-truck dittos and GTSing for the stupid to get stuff.

Order is pretty easy to remember just by recalling which one I did first and when I went back to other generations. I intentionally mixed up 5th gen since it was close to the end just so it wouldn't be super repetitive.

I still haven't got a Switch but I guess I gotta get one ASAP.

Track down a copy or emulate Platinum. It's excellent.

Only downside is the player outfits in Platinum suck, but as sprites, you'll never be able to tell.

That's arguable, but at least we can agree Lucas looks better with his Diamond/Pearl outfit.

Good, Silver, and Platinum are all on the 3DS Virtual Console. When you transfer the Pokémon from them to the bank, they get their hidden abilities.

I'm tempted to pick up the VC version of red just so I can have it but its kind of useless since you can mew glitch any version exclusives relatively easy. I also wish they'd put RSE on VC since I skipped them as a kid and wouldn't mind playing them now.

I really want Sirfetched, but Tyranitay is one of my special partners from OG Silver who folds in front of a martial artist. Skarmory is also a favorite that I want to have again.

Having them for only 3 turns and using it instead of a stronger Gigantimax means its probably still real bad.

Against all odds in-game Mawile is way worse than competitive Mawile. He doesn't learn a physical Fairy move until level 49 or a physical Steel move until level 45.
