If you had to choose just one game from each region, which would they be? I know there isn't a lot of choice for Kalos and Galar, but you can still tell us which version you chose if you like. Here's mine...
Kanto: Let's Go, Pikachu!
I have to admit, I've often found Kanto a little dull, and always used to struggle to finish the older games set in this region. However, I find the Let's Go games really delightful; I feel that they have breathed new life into the region.
Johto: SoulSilver
I have a soft spot for all the Johto games and could have chosen the Virtual Console version of Crystal, which I love because it allows you to catch Celebi. I think HeartGold and SoulSilver are still the best, though, due to the following Pokémon and the fact that they're so jam-packed with content - in many ways they feel like the most "complete" game in the series.
Hoenn: Omega Ruby
The Soaring feature and Deoxys alone are enough to make this the definitive Hoenn game for me.
Sinnoh: Platinum
I don't always like the remastered versions better than the originals, but Platinum is definitely the superior Sinnoh game. The Distortion World is a blast.
Unova: White
For me, Black and White have the best story in any Pokémon game to date, and for this reason, I enjoy them more than the sequels.
Kalos: Y
I had a hard time choosing a version in this generation because Xerneas and Yveltal are, in my opinion, two of the best-designed legendaries to date. I ultimately went with Y because I prefer Charizard and Mewtwo's Mega forms in that version, and I thought Yveltal would be more fun to have on my team.
Alola: Moon
Like in the Unova games, I enjoyed the story in Sun and Moon a lot more than in the Ultra versions. Catching Nebby feels a lot more meaningful in the original story.
Galar: Sword
I got both versions this time around, but Sword is my main version and the one I bought the Expansion Pass for because Zacian is my favourite of the two legendaries.
