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 2003 GameCube sequel to Pokemon Stadium lacks random encounters. Instead, you fight in 3D, arena-type battles against enemy trainers who have corrupted the little monsters. The game was a success for Nintendo, selling more than 1.5 million copies in the United States.
“It's definitely a much better-looking game than either of the ‘Pokémon Stadium’ titles, and the new story-driven adventure definitely gives you more context to the fighting ... but otherwise, the game isn't very different from its predecessors.” —Ryan Davis, GameSpot
