The Best Pokemon Games of the 21st Century
The Pokemon franchise is white hot right now thanks to Pokemon Go. More than 75 million people are playing the game on their smartphones. That’s especially impressive when you consider that Go isn’t even close to being the best Pokemon game you can play.
Wondering which Pokemon game truly is the very best? Well, wonder no more. Here’s our ranking, based on our unique Metascores, of the best Pokemon games released since the turn of the century.
This 2001 title for the Nintendo 64 has no story, and instead focuses on gym battles. Like the original Pokemon Stadium, this game allows you to battle with Pokemon you’ve caught playing the original Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow titles via the Transfer Pak accessory.
“While Pokemon Stadium 2 does a lot of things, it is basically a repetitive, turn-based fighting game. And if you're not into that, stay away. Otherwise, grab your Pokemon and let's scrap.” —Chris Carle, IGN
