Gen7 was nice tho it could just be nostalgia on my end.
The ultra gen 7 sucked tho
Internet needed to beat the game was an awful fucking idea
Gen7 for me was... meh. I remember being extremely annoyed at the RotomDex telling me what to do, as if it didn't allow me to explore properly. Perhaps because my nostalgia is geared towards the older games (I still play Emerald, to give you an idea.)
I should play some of the older games. I'm OK at battles but exploration is an issue, what older games aren't tm reliant for exploration?
In your case I wouldn't recommend ~~trumpets and water~~ Emerald then, as it's exploration-heavy - there's huge routes, and often what you want is in a specific place. You'll probably have a great time with Gen 4 instead, specially Platinum.
K, I'll start with that.
What about gen 1 and 2 ?
They're even more exploration-heavy than Emerald. Roughly, the earlier the game, the bigger the focus on exploration, as hardware limitations didn't allow much storytelling.
Also, I recommend playing their remakes instead of the original games; the originals are extremely buggy and have huge balance issues. (For example, there's a shore in Red/Blue that you can use to catch Safari Zone mons. And Psychic mons are crazy overpowered - the only Ghosts in the region are partially Poison, there's a lot of other Poison types, and since Gen1 was before the special split they got huge offensive and defensive capabilities.)
So. Start on backwards chronological order?
Will play gen4 first
Yup!
