Just what the topic says. Which region do you favor the least, or just think flat-out sucks?

My vote is for Hoenn. I really can't put my finger on it, but, I just never liked Hoenn that much. Perhaps the transition from GSC to RS didn't go well for me.

Hoenn. There's nothing WRONG with it IMO. Some of my favorite Pokes are from there. It just didn't stick out for much.

Johto sucks, quite frankly. I like some of the Pokemon, like Dunsparce and Yanma and Aipom and the starters, but generally a lot of them are forgettable and I find the region itself really boring. I don't like Team Rocket or the plot of G/S/C, I don't much care for any of the legendaries except for Ho-oh and maaaaybe Celebi, and I like maybe... three characters out of the entire Johto cast.

The Johto part of the anime sucked, too. :/

I'd have to say Sinnoh because of the anime+some Pokemon. The game's plot is great but the anime really kills Sinnoh. As for some the Sinnoh Pokemon, they kill it too. XD

My favorites was Kanto and Johto because of GSC and the anime as well. Original and great.

I vote for Hoenn

Posted by: Smokumz Feb 8 2010, 11:27 PM

I personaly didn't like Hoenn. The plot and characters didn't really catch my attention.
But I do like some of the pokemon.

Posted by: ARCEUS Feb 12 2010, 06:38 PM

Johto, I don't see why it was so good.

Posted by: Isei Feb 13 2010, 11:50 AM

Hoenn, I swear that the layout of the region was possibly the top contributor to a deep seeded hatred of 3rd gen.

Posted by: Ulquirine Feb 15 2010, 02:54 PM

Why is Hoenn in the lead? That's a shocker, I actually rather liked that region.


My least favourite region is Sinnoh.

Posted by: BananaPhone Feb 16 2010, 04:24 AM

I voted Hoenn because I do not like the Pokémon over there...

Posted by: SSJ2 Bardock Feb 16 2010, 10:52 AM

I voted for Sinnoh, I'm still mad about its lack of fire types.

Posted by: Unholy Shadow Feb 21 2010, 01:04 AM

Same here!

Hoenn. Johto was the clear bestgame in the series and to have it followed up by that region was, well, not favorable. They tried to change up the formula and separate it from the first 2 games but really they just gotrid ofa bunch of great Pokemon. Also, WAY too much surfing. Sinnoh has next to no surfing, I think it's only required 2 times and for visiting the lakes. In Hoenn, there are quite a few island cities. the graphic didn't help either, I preferred the Johto graphics to the Hoenn ones. I like all Pokemon games, but Hoenn is my least favorite. Oh yeah, and it has a bunch of total failure Pokemon, almost like they had to rush and created some jsut to fill spaces. I like Grumpig, but Spoink? Really? Its name alone is reason enough to hate it.

...fine, I guess that Fiore, Almia, and Orre don't exist. Same with the areas of PMD, and some of the other games.

If I include them all, I dislike Orre the most.

But if you're going to force me to conform to the main game's regions, I say...I can't pick. I've liked each region successively less, so I guess Shinou, but...meh.

Posted by: Revan Feb 21 2010, 01:06 PM

I guess I should have specified that it's the main game regions only. My bad.

Posted by: Spazmatic Mar 1 2010, 05:49 PM

Holy nice, that's what I say on other forums.
I was expecting more from the next generation after Johto, and Hoenn terribly disappointed me.

I vote Hoenn.

Posted by: DestatiVentus Mar 9 2010, 04:25 PM

Here here, I agree! Hoenn is tied for my favorite region, so this is a shocker.

My vote goes to Sinnoh, even though it has my favorite Pokemon in it Dialga. There's something about it that I don't like Kanto is my second least favorite.

Posted by: DeusSuetonius Oct 13 2010, 06:20 PM

from least fav to absolute fav

gen 5, shinnoh, kanto, johto then Hoenn

Posted by: Harry Potter rox Nov 22 2010, 06:16 PM

I voted Jhoto because it had no "ooh" factors.
Kanto was the first region that made it not be the worst
Hoenn had dive as an HM no other region has that
Sinnoh it has the fight area, resort area and survival area and Lots Of Legendaries

Posted by: CrowFeather Nov 23 2010, 06:57 AM

Jhoto/Kanto. It didn't have much detail in its surroundings.. Hoenn had a Volcano, and Sinnoh had an Ice Mountain.. Jhoto and Kanto had a forest and alot of caves..

Posted by: FrenzyClinic Nov 23 2010, 07:09 AM

Kanto had a volcano on a neighboring island. It also has an underground cave in the middle of the sea.
Johto had a Dragon's Den. It also had something like Seafoam, but bigger in some aspects.
I don't see how they make a region bland, or whatever you're implying.

For me it's Sinnoh. Namely because of Mount Coronet splitting the land in half. I don't know why, but that just doesn't appeal to me.

Posted by: Bullrito Nov 23 2010, 08:02 AM

As much as I loved HGSS, I just don't like the majority second gen Pokémon enough to like Johto as much as I do the other gens.

Posted by: Cabbage xx Dec 9 2010, 06:46 AM

Hoenn. The pokemon are cool, but I've never personally liked the area. And the two evil teams are just kinda meh..

Posted by: rileyup Jan 1 2011, 11:05 AM

hoenn is the worst

oh and johto sounds like a spanish cussword

Posted by: Theophania Jan 16 2011, 12:47 PM

Hoenn. I actually like quite a few of the pokemon (though third gen pokemon are the ones I'm most likely to forget) and some of the land is rather nice. However the amount of water is ridiculous and I wasn't fond of the gym leaders. The evil teams were also the stupidest and most boring of any region.

I don't know if it's really fair for me to say any of this though. I stopped playing after Crystal came out and I didn't pick it up again until a couple years ago when I borrowed my brother's Leaf Green. I later borrowed Ruby but I could never make myself finish it because it bored me so much so I may be slightly biased.

Johto, however, is my ultimate region and part of me is sad that people put it down so much. So far the Johto games have been the only one I've been an active player for when they came out (both times actually) since I got into the series a few years after the originals came out and Platinum had been out for months before I even picked up Diamond.

HOENN!
Gen 3 sucked!

Posted by: fgohan Mar 6 2011, 11:45 PM

kanto is the best because it has my two favorite pokemon in it

Posted by: fgohan Mar 6 2011, 11:45 PM

whoops my least favorite is hoenn because it was kinda boring. sorry for the double post read it wrong the first time

Posted by: Pikachu15 Mar 21 2011, 04:45 PM

hoenn. i like hoenn, but out of all of them listed, i like hoenn the least. for me, it gets too hard too soon!

Posted by: BarkAtTheMoon Mar 22 2011, 11:05 PM

Hoenn. I dunno. I tried to play emerald once, but it took too long to even get the starter and everything seems kinda bland and boring. I skipped gen 3 because of that and didn't play until i got LG.

Posted by: FlameChocobo Mar 22 2011, 11:33 PM

All I have to say is Johto. Team Rocket was trying to bring back Giovanni, but failed miserably. And the Gen 2 Pokemon (excluding some of the evolutions) aren't as good. That's probably why Generation 2 is the weakest of all.

Posted by: SnivyCap Mar 24 2011, 10:02 AM

I'd say Hoenn. I just thought it wasn't very thought out. The only thing I really like about Hoenn is that it has the best Water type ever, Mudkip/Swampert.
