>>34435274I grew up on Gen II and as much as I like nostalgia, those games didn't age well at all.
-They move slow as fuck
-Dragon types are overpowered an rape everything
-the movepools of the pokemon were shitty and non existant
-the overall available pokemon is small
-there are a huge chunk of pokemon missing evolutions (like sneasel and gligar)
-there is no physical/special split
-breeding and egg hatching is a nightmare and a complete crap-shoot
I have a really hard time bringing myself to play older pokemon games because there's just so much...missing. Hell, even Gen V seems primitive and severely lacking in a multitude of game-play mechanics.
