Prob gens 2 or 6 for me. I remember not caring for quite a few things in Kalos, but the Pokemon designs stood out as being mostly pretty good.

Conversely, for as much as I like Hoenn, there's not that many new Pokemon there that I liked.

It's Gen 4, but it's one of the weaker gen simply because it's slow as fuck

Gen 3 has the second best and is actually the best Gen

Purely in design alone, 6 stands out to me. Truly a case of quality > quantity.

Surprised Unova did so well, I thought most of its designs were kinda meh.

Though I am also one of the 10 people who actually like the ice cream, garbage, and gear Pokemon...

Gen 6 had a fair number of great, non legendarys. Like Greninja, talonflame, and aegislash, plus mega evolutions was a great mechanics that made a fair number of once irrelevant pokemon relavant again.

I like the ice cream Pokemon. How can anyone hate a Pokemon that looks so happy?

Some people are obsessed with Unova for some reason, I don't understand all the praise people give it. The pokemon designs that gen were god awful, gen 5 was exactly when it started going downhill

Yeah, looking at the poll right now, there's no way this isn't objectively skewed by nostalgia.

I dare you to find a design better than Scizor or Arcanine.

I don't think picking Gen 1 means you're blinded by nostalgia. Gen 1 designs are mostly great. For me, it's a tie between that and Gen 5.

Hating on Unova Pokemon like Vanillish and Trubbish was mostly a meme.

Now that 10 years have gone by, it seems like most of the fan sentiment for BW is pretty positive. (Which it absolutely deserves)

Also it helps that there a lot of resources/info out there now from James Turner and other designers that give insight on some of the inspiration and origins for Gen 5 Pokemon.
i.e. Vanillish is a reference to ice cream being popular in America, early soft serve being served on Coney Island, and the Staypuft Marshmallow Man with Ghostbusters taking place in NY.
