    I think Sinnoh probably made the most interesting and impactful additions to the lore. It added a literal god, hinted at the relationship between humans and Pokémon and established a kind of pantheon of legendaries and mythics (though a lot of it was behind the scenes).

    Definitely Sinnoh!

    Although I also like Galar's. What kind of world was it before Maxing took over? What kind of chaos happened when it first appeared?

    Galar or Sinnoh.
