The third movie is probably one of the darkest (Delia gets kidnapped by a little girl's pet Eldritch abomination after some other Eldritch abominations, Unown, kill her father). It's still really good, and there's a series of awesome running battles between Molly Hale and the main characters.

If you've not seen Mewtwo's Origin, it's also pretty dark, and explains why Mewtwo is such an ass in the main film. What makes it awesome is 4Kids left that in their version of the dub.

Didn't care for 2, didn't care for 4, liked 5, liked the Advanced Generation arc as a whole (the anime itself was showing signs of actually aging Ash a little since he's not such a whiny little Mary Sue those seasons; it's still not as blatant in Diamond & Pearl as it became in Black & White later on).
