>>36591210>She/he doesn't even show up beyond the Daycare and barely even interrupts you when they do show upExcept he/she does. It's annoying and as pathetic as the Shauna forced relationship. Lyra's design is also worse than Kris'.
>Character development and trainingIt makes the adventure slower and less natural. Forcing the player to do things in a specific order when the original games allowed some free will just makes it boring.
>Like nearly every other game in the franchiseIt was one of the best parts of GSC. Again, going to a place by your own instead of getting forced to it feels way better and makes the world feel more mysterious.
>The kimono girls only ever show up once or twice outside of battling Lugia/Ho-Oh.HELP ME GET THROUGH THE FOREST!
UGH, HAVE THIS POKEMON EGG
LET US DANCE TO MAKE THE LEGENDARY BIRD APPEAR
Even if they don't have a lot of appearances, they make the game feel slower and more forced than ever. GSC was as simple and fast as RGBY.
>muh autorunThere's a thing called Bicycle which helps you go even faster.
>Pathetic bitchy nitpickCustomization is always great, even in small sizes like this. It's also really lame that we got the "gold leafs" bullshit instead of an actual underground/secret base minigame. Pokeathlon is still amazing, tho.
>What the fuck does this even meanI don't get it, either. I honestly don't have any problem with HGSS Pokedex.
>Who the hell caresAlso unimportant. If anything having every phone number is great for rematches and daily events.
>EVERY POKEMON CAN BE A FOLLOWERAnd I really liked it, although it is one of the most annoying feature because of it being one of the only arguments people have to say HGSS are the best Pokemon games out there when Platinum, BW2 and
Ultra SM exist.
.I really enjoyed HGSS, but the slower pacing, annoying characters and forced paths and quests make it feel more like tasking that going to an adventure. They are amazing games, but not the best.
