>>47939895>Why do people hate these games again?Because Gen 4 suffers from being slow, tedious, having really forgettable characters and a horrific dex, both the actual dex and the new pokemon added. It continued on from what Gen 3 started with even more legendary bloat, end of the world plots, friendly rivals and HM bloat.
There's great music, vibe, lore and some genuinely good areas but it's buried underneath what are by far some of the least innovative games in the series.
