Sword and Shield feel like the older games to me (I have been playing since Fire Red and Leaf Green, then went back and played Ruby/Sapphire with Emerald being my favorite title). Sw/Sh adds group raids and an area with tons of Pokémon.
I am also playing Violet, which I did not mention here because it is a newer title. Again I enjoy it, but the style is a departure from the older titles as they were going for an open world feel. You can challenge the different story points in any order, but some you still need to be higher level to finish. I think they should have done it where the levels scale.
Damn, good for you. I never quite got to collecting them all, I never got all of the version exclusives. Maybe one day I’ll try to find a way to get them all. I don’t have too many friends playing the old Pokémon games anymore though, so trading might be a pain
I used to go to Game Stops and buy used copies of the GameBoy Advanced carts, take any ‘mons I was missing and then resell the game or give them away (usually leaving them in Geocaches.

I’d probably like Sw/Sh then. Silver (and its remake) and Emerald are my personal favourites, though honestly Gen 1-6 are all great imo
I need to dig out my GameCube and Pokémon Box so I can transfer all of my Pokémon from Emerald (I have all 386).

That’s awesome. There’s a few vintage game shops around me, maybe I’ll see if I can do that in the near-ish future
