Re: GI version 18 or 19c?

We went through a similar upgrade. 19c is the way to go as it's the long-term supported version (think 11.2.0.4). If you are using Linux, you'll need version 7 or higher to use 19c.

See the My Oracle Support document, Release Schedule of Current Database Releases (Doc ID 742060.1)
