Absolutely surprising and out of nowhere - TWO regions - revisiting Kanto and the OG player was kino and CONTENT baby.
Breeding is here - BOOM - with battling, that's all the replay value needed.
Day/Night cycle PRESENT and COZY as FUCK.
Peak sprite design.
Crystal came along and the aesthetic was hella gay.
Ruby & Sapphire came along but lacked backward compatibility.
The DS games have TWO screens, which is autistic because micromanagement is never kino.
The Switch games look like ass aesthetically.
The only answer is OG Gold & Silver.
