>>51495308Yeah, that's fair.
Let's see, we've got
> Pokémon Center and Poké Mart clash with the intended theme> Generic Route tileset clashes with the intended theme> No Ice or Snow (barring the cave exit) to show the town being high up. There was no excuse to not use the tiles the already made for Mt. Silver on the mountains> Like you said, no pathways or anything> 3 Houses massively spread apart, preventing it from feeling like a cohesive town> No flair or decoration on the fucking Dragon's Den, when they used assets that would do that beautifully INSIDE of the place> Gym is just awkwardly standing next to a generic pool of water, when the waterfalls in this game are fucking gorgeous> No wild Horsea/SeadraI love these games, Johto was my first, but even childhood me knew they dropped the ball here. They had the tiles to make it perfect! Copy fucking paste!
Also
> Route 44 should have been snowyI agree completely. I'll add that the player should have had access to it before getting 7 badges. If Clair just HAS to be the last Gym Leader, then put the Ragecandybar faggot at the door to Ice Path.

>>51499005Massive but looks kino
>>51495492Unironically Opelucid from White (the version in Black just looks wrong) but Sootopolis is a good one. Hell, Viridian at least subverts expecations.
