So I wanna play pokemans...

[Reid]

Start with Pokemon Blue/Yellow/Red then move to Gold/Silver. Do not play any beyond that.

I'd play it Blue, then Silver.

Of if you can't stand the graphics, leaf green/fire red on the gba.

This...
Plus the trading card game for GBC

The problem with only playing Gen 1 and Gen2 is that you're missing out on 2/3 of the entire series. Sure, you can only stick to the 90s games for "muh nostalgia", but for the full Pokemon experience, you should play at least one game from every generation
