Nope. It's Final Fantasy VII vs Pokemon.
For the record, the games I feel that the lack of series voting applies to (that I can think of off the top of my head):
Final Fantasy games
MGS games
RE Games
Because the protagonist and rival and the plot change from game to game.
I don't see what's weird about thinking a series that doesn't have rivalries that are as distinct from game to game gets more votes based off the series. Basically you're trying to sell that the Pokemon games are as different plot/characterwise as the Final Fantasy series or MGS, which is pretty lol.
