>>38728508*Pokemon like Roselia and Chimecho were obvious meant for gen 4, but were given to gen 3, due to padding, I assume. Roselia now has a pre-evo and a proper evo, for example
*Plot isn't any different. Cultist faggots act like dicks and want to start an apocalypse. Gen 1 and 2 just had team rocket, Gen 5 had a convoluted conquest plot that seemed very out of place, Gen 6 was about some faggot trying to start a holocaust over a dumb reason, and gen 7's "evil team" were literally just some squatting slavs. Gen 3 and Gen 4 had villains that wanted to control elemental powers to further their gains, something that was not seen again
*The music is very clearly similar to gen 3, again, just focusing on different instruments. You must be tone death, just listen to both DP and RS battle themes, for example
*Yes, they brought back content that they were going to include in gen 3 and 4. Again, because they were trying to make sure Gen 4 was a proper sequel to Gen 3
*You should look harder, then, the new pokemon introduced in gen 4 were largely evolutions of concepts experimented on in gen 3, or designed specifically for the new physical/special split
*Yes, a battle frontier. Thank you for agreeing with me
*Again, it seems like you've never played gen 3 before. This one should be obvious
*Yes, remakes, and remakes of the same quality, no less, ORAS was a pathetic cash in, and came in a generation later than it should have. HGSS is a proper sequel to LGFR same way Gen 4 is a proper sequel to Gen 3, neither XY nor ORAS are proper sequels to either the remakes, or the former gens
*Unova is based off america, kalos is based off france, ect, Gen 3 and 4 are the last regions based off japan, which was the original plan, yes
*Actually, gen 4 directly incorporated Pokemon like Munchlax in, say, Gale of Darkness, except for Gen 2, I don't remember them giving us previews this blatantly. This makes Gen 3 and 4 feel like proper sequels, rather than random pokemon x edition
