GS loses a lot of what made RB such a quick, fun replay but at the same time it introduces a lot of actual engine advancements that make it a fun replay over RB or even later games. It doesn't help that Gen III despite being called the game that "gave Johtomons spotlight like Marill, Skarmory and Slugma" decided to make most Johtomons a pain in the ass to get like Mareep, Houndour (still), Smeargle and Teddiursa. Instead you have to play a whole ass other game to fill out the dex, or play until Emerald's post-game to access them. The new mon distribution is the focus of Hoenn, but old mons are almost impossible to obtain. It's like a reverse of GS' problems, except GS you can still get all 249 available mons due to interconnectivity with Gen I
