>>35458750Sinnoh wins by default for not having 15 water routes at the end of the game. Seriously, that aspect of Hoenn was genuinely AWFUL game design:
>Hope you like running into Tentacool and Wingull every few steps!>You can always bypass this by stocking up on a shitload of repels>Unfortunately you can't repel away the 50+ Swimmers dotted around who all share the same pool of Water types>Not sick of Water types yet? Lol how about a Water gym leader just to piss you off furtherSinnoh may be less memorable but at least it's bad routes are minimal (the obvious Defog route and maybe Mt. Coronet)?
As for those snow routes before Snowpoint City - I challenge any of you to name a route(s) more ATMOSPHERIC. After 7 gens, those two are the only routes where I genuinely felt like I was on an adventure fighting the elements.
