>>33839214>>atrocious level curve, Elite Four is pokemon in the 40s whereas wild pokemon NEVER go above low-thirties unless you're in Mt. Silver.But they did fix the level curve, sorta. If you compare the trainer and gym battles in kanto from GSC to HGSS, you'll see that the levels are higher. I agree they should have fixed teh wild levels as well, but the Safari Zone extension *somewhat* circumvents that with having a chunk of Pokemon in theire in the mid to high 40s
>>garbage pokemon distribution (want a Houndour? Murkrow? Misdreavus? Sneasel? Too bad, postgame-only or Mt. Silver in Larvitar's case, I'm sorry that you wanted to catch Johtomons in Johto instead of Kanto)Sucks about Sneasel, but Larvitar, Misdreveous and Murktrow are encounterable in the Safari Zone. Houndour can also be found in the Safari Zone but only after the E4.
>>bland as fuck Kanto that isn't even worth how underwhelming Johto isThey did fix up Kano, for the most part. Seafoam Islands and Viridian Forest are finally landmarks again for example.
>>most Johto pokemon are complete shitmons, also the gen that introduced baby pokemon cancer>>Victory Road is a couple of barren roomsyeah I got nothing for these.
But the point I'm making is that saying it fixed "literally none" is factually incorrect. Yes, they could have fixed them MORE, and they should have, but you do have to give credit when credit is due.
