The encounter types were also pretty cool. You had Pokemon showing up in packs, falling down from the ceilings of caves, swooping down at you from the sky, or popping out of the ground in the desert. These ideas made the world come to life, and I wish that subsequent would integrate them more. Hordes especially make a-lot of sense now that you see Pokemon in the overworld moving around in groups.
