I agree. They also should have had Silver's Sneasel and Magneton evolve.

Johto and its remakes will stand as the games with the most fucked up distribution in the series.

Even fucking Slugma has to be caught in Kanto by Cycling Road, or you can get it in an egg in HG/SS. What's the fucking point in having Johto pokemon exclusively in Kanto?

Yeah, because it'd make sense for Silver to just fly over to a new region for a little bit just to evolve two of his Pokemon.

First three weren't that bad

When you're headbutting and getting fuck all that's annoying but it gave that rare feel when locating Aipom or Heracross which are tree dwellers
>only found in night or day
Emphasized nocturnal pokemon which wouldn't make much sense wandering in the mid afternoon
The rest i'll give you for being stupid, though

He could have gotten the razor claw without going to a new region, you know. Magneton would have just had to stay as is then.

What bugs me is that they introduced Dark in order to nerf Psychics, but other than Umbreon, there were no Dark types available before Kanto. So by the time you find an example of this new type, you probably already have a full team without one.

Johto is shit. It's small and empty.

It could have been good if Kanto wasn't shoehorned into the game to create the illusion of more content.

Lots of games were polished in 2000. G/S were great but still very sloppy.

Oh, I got it backwards. It only reduces the number of blocks you're actually using since the blocks now have a multiplier attached. It DOES take actual real time days for them to upgrade. Yeah...you need to do the midnight trick for that. Sorry.

At least if you go back to the game now after years, you can catch everything in the safari.

I had never played it before the Safari Balls got any value.
