ORAS already had the basic ideas like the pokemon, region, characters, and story fleshed out. Even accounting for the tweaks they added in the remakes the games are still badly made. Most of the work should have gone in the programming for the 3d-ness (I say should because it's obvious they didn't, unless literally my mom's minecraft is what their best workers can do). The quality of ORAS's state is inexcusable at every level and nothing will ever beat it out of such a miserable state.
