I remember DP is what got me back into pokemon. My friend in college was like "Yo play Pokemon Diamond, it's pretty good" and the rest is history
Welcome back. Did you skip a gen or something?

The Sinnoh games were my favorites for a long time, which is one reason I was so disappointed with the remakes being as terrible as they were.
I bought them day 1 and I only ever got 1-2 gym badges.

People talking about gen 1 and 2 don't know what it's like living in America and being able to schedule a trade with someone in Europe or Japan.
For gen 1 there was a bunch of people I could trade with at school but for gens 2 - 3 I had no one except my sister, which was fine because she had the opposite color as me. But being able to trade with hundreds of people per week was so different it was difficult to keep up with them all.

Now imagine the game being 1.5x slower with worse content, and that's DP
At least D/P/Pt were the only slow games. At the time it didn't bother me but it would be noticeable if I ever replayed them.
