Gen II - Silver/Gold/Crystal
Gen III - Sapphire/Ruby/Emerald, LeafGreen/FireRed
Gen IV - Diamond/Pearl/Platinum, SoulSilver/HeartGold
Gen V - ?/?/?, Gen III Remakes (most likely)
Gen IV was/is spectacular, especially since it now contains remakes of Gen II. I don't really get what you mean about Pokemon "missing" in Gen III, but it -was- pretty bad, and is widely considered the worst in the series. At least the main games were, the Gen III Remakes of Green/Red were CHOICE.
