There are three buildings in Pallet Town. Your house, your rivals house and Oaks Lab.

But theres two additional NPCs that wander around and live in Pallet Town.

Where the hell are their houses?

Reminder that, since one is a souvenir shop / rocket hideout, there is a grand total of ONE house in Mahogany Town.

I really hate the tiny town design in Pokemon and wish it got better with 3D but it didn't improve at all

What would bigger towns add to the game? The newer games usually try to have one really big city and it always feels like a huge clusterfuck.

You can have more houses, tons of cities have those unenterable buildings but explains where people live

Compare to Unova. Every town or city has enough buildings dotted around making up part of the scenery to aid in this issue.

That's not what the town actually looks like. There are hundreds of buildings in it, but it was simplified down to only what you need to see in the game. Which mind you is a primitive first-generation Game Boy game.

But they're never going to feel realistic because it's impractical to devote that much development time to a shitty town the player spends 10 minutes in.

Outside of the protagonist's perception.
It's like how bathrooms obviously exist, but the MC only took note of one when Pyukumuku were inside of it.

This - you see most of these towns and cities in the anime, too, and all of them are much bigger than what is presented in-game. They couldn't make full-scale towns because of the Game Boy's hardware limitations, so we only got the absolute essentials, with only a few places (Like Saffron, Celadon, and Goldenrod) filled with useless buildings to create a sense of scale (sprawling cities vs the rural towns seen in the majority of the game). It's implied that there are always more buildings (and more people) than what we're seeing depicted in any given town.

Tangent, why did Gary's sister have a crush on you? Always felt like this was supposed to be a more important detail, like it'd be in the anime or something, but it's not. It's just an odd little detail left in the game.

>hardware limitations
Stop saying this.
It's very rare for a game to have realistic towns and cities because it's simply a lot of work for what will ultimately just be irrelevant filler. Games that do have realistic cities are usually very strongly focused on the urban environment, like Assassin's Creed or GTA, or only allow you to travel to a few locations within the city, like Baldur's Gate or Deus Ex.
It's not a matter of hardware limitations but of man-hours being better spent elsewhere.

The way I see it is, you're seeing the game from the perspective of a child. The cities are much bigger to adults but a kid is only going to see what they need. Gyms; Pokemon Centers; PokeMarts, certain homes.
