I for the most part skipped gen 3, it was at a point between playing my brother's pokemon games after he stopped liking it and before I had fully gotten up to date with the new stuff coming out.

I still haven't played ORAS, I have a copy of AS that a friend gave me but I just can't seem to play it, it's boring /vp/
why is there so much hype around hoenn? and should i actually give these games a chance?
