>>37131502>Gym rematches>Steven is a secret bossWhere are the E4 rematches? Oh right, in ORAS.
Also, gym rematches are postgame only and tied to unreliable Match Call. This is a pretty shitty implementation of a feature.
>Actual game corner*grind corner
>Doesn't have piss-easy X/Y baby-difficultyTrue but one of the reasons Emerald is harder than ORAS is because fourth of the available Pokemon are useless sacks of shits and the old TM management is just awful.
>Doesn't have ORAS' dogshit storyExcept all 3 games have extremely similar stories. And honestly, Emerald as well as ORAS failed when changing RS' story. The former with "let's blow up the mountain, it will be a riot!" Maxie and the latter with "what about the other worlds similar to ours?" Zinnia.
>Mirage towerMore like one minute dungeon. Also, ORAS have a lot of mirage locations.
I won't list ORAS features since I have 2000 characters limit, sorry :^)
>>37131580Using Alakazam in older games is equivalent to using box legendary Pokemon. Anyway, the number of Pokemon improved with the split is way bigger.
