Say what you will about the first two gens, there is one thing that they both are far and away superior to every gen since (excluding their remakes). That is of course the plot lines for each. Both were simply stories about self improvement, with a small side plot of getting tangled up in a criminal organization.
The other games are all about SAVE DA WORLD YOU SPIKEY HAIRED WUNDERKIN. Absolute shit tier story, the same stupid shit you could find in hundreds of JRPGs.
