Think there's a game that deserves to be higher up? Get rating and you may very well affect the order below in real-time. Registered Nintendo Life users can still rate the games now simply by clicking the stars next to the titles listed and giving the game(s) a rating out of 10. Similar to our other reader-ranked lists, the order below is governed by each game's User Rating in our games database, and as such is subject to fluctuation even after publication. Non-mainline spin-offs aren't included here, though - sorry Pokémon Smile fans. To be clear, this is just the mainline entries the games that introduced a new generation of Pokémon to the mix, their sequels, the ultimate versions and the remakes of those games.

So we decided to modify our existing ranked list and ask Nintendo Life readers to rate every game in the series - and this is the result! What are the best Pokémon games? Ranking such classics proved difficult given how many of them end up being among the best games of their particular console generation. If you disagree with the order below and haven't yet rated your favourites, simply scroll through and click on the User Rating 'star' for each game to leave your own score out of ten and influence the order. REMEMBER: This list is ranked according to the Nintendo Life User Ratings of each title. Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl (Switch).Pokémon Yellow Version: Special Pikachu Edition (GB).Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire (3DS).
