Sun and Moon are great. Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are eh since they really changed the story near the end.

You played one of the last good games TC. Try White 2 if you want some more Gen V goodness.

Until pokemon installs the ability to up the difficulty of their game (effectively turning every pokemon into a bullet sponge) while giving trainers and gym leaders the option to have *any* move instead of pre-set ones, with a bit of RNG added to the game for flavor so that it's never the same run twice (when you beat it).

Until they add that stuff and more, pokemon will remain a child's game.

I've thought about getting that or Shield. I've not played since gen 3, and have no interest/time in starting back from gen 4 onward.

Gen 5 (Black/White and BW2) were the last truly great Pokemon games. Since then, it's been downhill.

Play Radical Red. romhack of firered that has every single Pokemon and most of the new mechanics and is also quite challenging, meant for a more experienced audience.

I actually skipped gen 5 (b/w). I've enjoyed all the ones after. Then again Pokemon is my main "completionests" game and I focus on filling out the dex. More to do=more fun.

Still havent played sword/shield though. Hearing they left a bunch of pokemon out killed the hype for me for the previously mentioned reason.

Let's Go was actually mindless fun
Sword/Shield is alright, it's problem is that it sort of flatlines. It doesn't really peak or descent during the adventure, it's just sort of the same all throughout.
It does however, have unquestionably the best batch of waifus in the series

I played a $20 Pokmon knockoff on switch a couple weeks ago that had what I considered an insane built in randomizer for new game+. Also allowed you to import your save into a new randomized file, which I thought was cool.

Hes suspended. No point in responding to him.

This.

Sun and Moon had some great characters and a fine story, but Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon ruined them. And Sword and Shield were just lazy. So I have no real expectations for the Gen 4 remakes.

I did like XY quite a bit, though.

Oh, on topic I enjoyed the last couple just fine once they had the extra content.

Ultra S/M were fun with all the mega evolutions in the battle tree and online. I also had lots of fun with S/S and the expansions are cool. I played rather a lot without even doing competitive like I had been doing in sun.

I know this isn't the popular opinion, but I actually liked SwSh.

It absolutely suffered from a lack of "dungeons" - IIRC there's only two or three (small) caves and two forests in the base game, and no special areas like the rocket bases, haunted towers etc., and the rest is just standard Routes [Would Area notwithstanding] - I'm guessing this was the payoff they needed to make for the Wild Area, and I don't think it was worth it, tbh.

But I really like the new Poks they added, especially the starters, and I feel like the plot felt tighter and more... urgent than it ever has in a mainline Pokmon game (with the possible exception of B/W), and when you add in the two DLCs it actually becomes a pretty substantial package, with loads to do.

Sword and Shield is fun by Dynamaxing isn't half as fun as Megas.

But I do like the music, and some of the new Pokmon are great.
