>>41863361Fast forward to gen 4:The mons are way easier to obtain with GTS, s/p split made the making making easier, regional mythicals are obtainable through a well known glitch, no mirage island to leave you wondering about everything in the game and shinies were less rare as hackmons were seen more. Lucky egg is drastically easier to get, but still rare. Just when it couldn't get worse HGSS crammed 13 (I think) legendaries in a single game to devalue them too.
Fast foward now:TMs are easily replaceable, shinies are far easier, IVs are chanageable, Natures are changable, catching every mon is a breeze, breeding is easier and even egg moves can be obtained easily. Battle frontier is gone.
