>>21877726For sinnoh, the answer for that is a dead no.
night/day music and the physical/special split do not make up for the sheer amount of wrong implementation, unfinished concepts, and missed opportunities they pulled.
Imagine if Barry was a good rival, not just some spastic buffoon.
Imagine if tangrowth wasn't just a bigger tangela with broader shoulders and angry eyebrows. Or if Porygon Z wasn't just Porygon 2 with its body upside down, yellow eyes, and an unexplained horn.
Imagine if the legendaries had more lore than "they made space or something I dunno"
If distortion world wasn't cut to be added later as DLC. So that when platinum came about, that would have been expanded upon, not just added.
Imagine if there were more than 3 fully evolved fire types in all of sinnoh, one being Infernape a starter, one being Heatran, a post-champ legendary.
Imagine if the poketch wasn't a collection of completely useless gadgets like a coin flip.
Sinnoh dropped the ball.
