For more than 25 years, developer Game Freak has found a way to reinvent the Pokémon franchise for each new generation of gamers.
Both brand-new Pokémon trainers and seasoned Pokémon masters are captivated by these cute (and sometimes scary) little monsters.
Maybe it’s the drive to catch ’em all that keeps players coming back. Or perhaps it’s how adorable these little pocket monsters can be.
Whatever the reason, players continue to return to or start exploring the Pokémon franchise. Between new main series titles that bring new regions and Pokémon into the mix — likePokemon Legends: Arceus, Pokémon Scarlet andViolet, remakes, and spinoffs — there’s a massive library of Pokémon games to choose from.
Everyone has their favorites, but some are arguably better than others (just like Nintendo’s long-running Metroid and Legend of Zelda series).
