I wanted to like it more than GSC but the Pokemon selection is shit, TMs are the worst yet, level-up movesets still suck, and the level curve is still a problem (reached E4 with average team level of 41 and Steven had a level 58 Metagross). I literally changed from Set to Shift just for Steven because it was unwinnable without spamming X-items or healing to stall PP.
My ranking
GSC > RS > RBY
But all have too many problems to actually be fun to play. I would never replay these games unless it was on a emulator with speedup. Hoping the next games are better (will play the Gamecube games then DP).
