The only people that don't like GSC are people that don't like video games in general. GSC was /v/'s highest rated game of all time at one point. Yet only on /vp/ do you see people say it's the "worst of all time". You can smell the jealousy from miles away.
RBY and GSC were built as video games - Satoshi Tajiri's role as a director was one of "how can I make this video game better?"
From Gen 3 onward, the mantra shifted to "how can we shill the anime and merch as much as humanly possible?"
I don't know what Johto haters are really trying to accomplish. They spend weeks, months screaming into the void, but nothing will ever change. There is no situation where the first two generations of Pokemon will ever be viewed unfavourably by the general public. No amount of gay ops on 4chan will ever change anyone's minds.
