>>27519361Region design was okay, but could've done with less mandatory Mt Coronet jaunts. Game Freak went in the complete wrong direction addressing complaints in Gen 5 and 6.
Battles were slow as fuck.
Gym Leaders and Elite Four were unmemorable and consisted of types that had no or next to no Sinnoh mons.
Mons were largely unmemorable outside of a few greats.
The UI was an inconsistent clusterfuck that had each sub-menu designed by a different person who had no contact with the other designers.
HGSS was god-tier, so overall I'd give the whole gen a 5/10.
