How well do you recognize Pokémon game cries?

Very few on account of usually playing w/o sound. Ho-Oh, Jynx, Mew, Hoothoot, Kricketune...

I can recognize cries if they were used in the title screen like in Fire Red/Leaf Green, Platinum, and Black. I feel like I recognize some of the legendary cries because of how unique they are. Like Mesprit, Dialga, Shaymin, RχUS, Creselia, Deoxys, and Lugia.

There are very few cries that I recognize, like Geodude, Graveler, Zubat, Machop, and Onix. Can you guess why?
 
I would likely recall the majority of generation 4 Pokemon, as it was my introductory generation to the Pokemon games, and I would say gen 4 has the most memorable cries overall. Some of my favourites include: Kricketot/Kricketune (easily the most iconic), Cherrim, Chimchar, Starly/Staravia/Staraptor, Pachirisu, Buneary, Glameow, Spiritomb, Roserade, Toxicroak, Glaceon, Leafeon, Magnezone, Togekiss, Mismagius, and Froslass.

Glaceon and Cherrim are my all-time favourites.

Of course, I can recognize the cries of many of my favourite Pokemon, such as Wurmple, Beautifly, Gardevoir, Ninetales, Milotic, and Lucario.

Some other cries that standout to me are Snivy, Salazzle, Zubat, Cottonee, Maractus, and Reshiram.
 
Took the above quiz. Recognized more than expected.

Generation 1: 4/10
Generation 2: 9/10
Generation 3: 6/10
Generation 4: 9/10
Generation 5: 8/10
Generation 6: 9/10
Generation 7: 10/10
Generation 8: 8/10
Generation 9: 7/10

Wishes it gave you more options. Figured some out by elimination. "Was that big, loud, growly cry a legendary or one of these three tiny, unevolved Pokemon? Hmm." Went badly sometimes, on the other hand, due to picking a Pokemon earlier and seeing it again later (during its actual cry).

Helps if you get Pokemon that you encounter often too. Picked out Woobat easily enough.
 
Also took the above test.

Gen 1: 9/10
Gen 2: 8/10
Gen 3: 9/10
Gen 4: 9/10
Gen 5: 9/10
Gen 6: 10/10
Gen 7: 7/10
Gen 8: 7/10
Gen 9: 4/10

I know most of the Gen 3 and 4 cries by heart, as well as some of the more distinctive Gen 2 and 1 cries, mostly from various Ranger games where they would use said cries constantly. I don't immediately recognize all of the Gen 5 and 6 cries, but I do know a lot of them as well.

Gen 7, 8, and 9, I haven't played apart from a half-finished run of Shield. I got lucky in Gen 7 and 8 on mostly wild guesses, plus two Pokemon I actually used in Shield, but my luck ran out for Gen 9.
 
man so much of this has been ingrained into me that i'd probably recognise quite a lot of them outside of maybe Gen 9

i did try out the quiz, got the following:

Gen 1: 10/10
Gen 2: 10/10
Gen 3: 10/10
Gen 4: 10/10
Gen 5: 10/10
Gen 6: 10/10
Gen 7: 10/10
Gen 8: 8/10
Gen 9: 10/10

i did have to run gen 9 again, because it gave me like every single dog pokemon and their cries are quite distinct... still shocked Gen 8 was the one I got the least in!
 
I took the quiz. Hearing the sounds also made me nostalgic. I did okay. I'm not too familiar with Gen 9 though at all. I didn't even recognize some of the Pokemon. (never played the DLC).

Gen 1: 7/10
Gen 2: 9/10
Gen 3: 10/10
Gen 4: 6/10
Gen 5: 6/10
Gen 6: 6/10
Gen 7: 7/10
Gen 8: 6/10
Gen 9: 3/10
