Personally I prefer the story-driven ones, like gen 4 and 5, but I want to hear your opinions.

Do you guys prefer more story-driven Pokemon games, or more self-centered Pokemon games?

I prefer games that offer things for the player to do, especially in post-game. Or have a decent difficulty while playing. I grew up with Gen 5 so I'm a bit biased I'd say to that generation hahah. Really all I do is either shiny hunt or IV hunt my favorite pokemon ^^

My favorite has to be emerald, the mons, map, battle frontier, and many tinier things like Mr. Briney and Peeko or the absolute hilarity of everything Team Aqua and Team Magma do. Platinum and Black/White do definitely follow right behind, mostly for story like you said, but I've also gone too long without replaying them as well as consumed too much fanfiction and fanart of both to have my opinion be of the actual game instead of what the internets filled my head with. I never got a 3DS to play generation 6 and up, but I can respect it for the mega evolutions and some very pretty scenes.

But since you prefer the story Allspar I'd very highly recommend Legends of the Arena, the gameplay is very well done and definitely not easy too so what I'm saying is the entire thing, not just the story, is amazing.

this game is fun
