9. Gen VIII (I've complained about Gen VIII in the past for feeling basic, and this round is no different. Looking at it overall, I think that's kind of the problem: Fighting and Steel are hard types to mess up, in my opinion. Yet Gen VIII's roster of Steel-types, while not BAD, is so uninspired. Hisuian Sliggoo/Goodra are two of the best here, and that's really not a good sign.)

8. Gen VII (I agree with whoever pointed out that this generation is all legendaries. It's too much without the common Pokemon to bolster it. Only Alolan Sandslash is kinda fun, anyway. Well, and Solgaleo is great in its own right.)

7. Gen I (Both Magnemite and Magneton are adorable, but it's really hard to choose Gen I when they're all it has to offer.)

6. Gen IV (The Bastiodon line, Bronzong line, and Wormadam form all suck. Dialga/Heatran are kinda generic, and Lucario/Empoleon/Magnezone can't make up for the lack of quality that first group brings.)

5. Gen IX (Nothing is BAD here, and Tinkaton, Revavroom, Archaludon and Gholdengo are solid, but nothing really takes a top spot among this roster for me.)

4. Gen II (Scizor and Skarmory are both awesome, and Steelix is a big step up from Onix. Just wish Forretress offered something different, typing-wise, from Scizor.)

3. Gen V (Genuinely nothing bad here, and Excadrill is a top tier Pokemon. Unfortunately, Excadrill is the only REALLY good Pokemon among this group, so Gen V doesn't stand out as much as others.)

2. Gen III (The only bad Pokemon here is Beldum, and Mawile/Aggron/Metagross are awesome, while Registeel is the coolest Regi. Solid effort here.)

1. Gen VI (All five megas are awesome, the Aegislash line is awesome, and Klefki is hilarious. Perfect set of Pokemon here.)
