I love both Harvest Moon and Pokemon, each game brings its own unique features to the table.

I'd choose pokemon because it just took me too long to get used too harvest moon and I got confused at the beginning about what the game was about.

I've never really grown to like harvest moon. Definitely pokemon.

Harvest moon is my choice, it's simply more realistic and involving than the pokemon games. After all, there is a limit to how many battles you can fight in before you go crazy; with Harvest Moon, there are several DIFFERENT things to do.

While I can appreciate the Harvest Moon games, in part because I grew up on a farm, I find it more monotonous than Pokemon. With Pokemon, there are a lot more things to do, places to go, new Pokemon to catch, moves to teach, evolutions to unlock...I can only get so much joy out of clearing my land from the latest windstorm.

Harvest Moon, it requires more thinking and planning then stupid little gay poke mans hitting on each other.

There is a lot more to pokemon then just poke battles at this point.  You can also spend time on Pokemon contests, building up secret bases, and spend hours on breeding pokemon with perfect IV values.  The games offer a lot more depth then you'd expect from the surface if you are into competitive battling.

 

That being said, I would put forth Pokemon as my preferred game of the two opions.  I've just never found the Harvest Moon games to be as compelling or as enjoyable.

both! haha! i prefer pokemon in the sense that it is adventure like. but harvest moon in the sense that it is slower paced, coz in my country, the life pace here is like super speeded. hahha

Harvest moon has more playtime.

Well, that depends on how much time you want to put into Pokemon and how much you think you can get out of it.  I managed to put in over 256 hours in Pokemon Yellow and actually stopped the clock at 255 hours and 59 minutes.  So, I'm unable to keep track of how much more time I'm putting into it.  I basically burned the hours away trying to keep all my Pokemon around the same level so I have a lot of options that I can bring to the field.  Though, that may have been a laregely pointless exercise since certain Pokemon are clearly better then others.

 

It also depends on if you are into competitive battling as well.  Since, you can burn away a lot of hours in competitive matches against other trainers especially if you create teams with set level limits and what not.

Personally both games are equally enjoyable since they are from 2 separate genres but I personally enjoy Harvest moon a bit more because it help calms a person more than pokemon who I tend to get aggravated more easily.
