>>31025102overrated would imply anyone ever talks about them here. Considering they're the only main console games that have an actual plot and don't pander to gen 1 like Game Freak does constantly (due to the fact the weren't made by Game Freak and were made to make catching gen 2 pokemon possible), it's one of the few things gen 3 did right. They're not perfect but they were a step in the right direction for taking Pokemon into main consoles. Too bad Game Freak said fuck that keep it portable, and we haven't gotten anything similar since.
