    Along with Zelda's 35th anniversary. This week is also Pokémon’s 25th anniversary. Pokémon Red and Green released in Japan on February 27, 1996.

    With 25 years worth of Pokémon games to choose from, which one is the very best?
    And what are some of your favorite memories with the series?
