>>43455558>>started the furry starter trendCharizard was gen 1.
>>removed day nightThat sucks but at least the games don't die when the battery does.
>>culled the dex for a good 2 yearsThe pokemon structure was terrible and needed a reboot. It was planned from the start and included in the game so they were backward compatible unlike GSC.
>>relied on spinoffs dor increased sales and combined STILL couldnt even outperform GSC>GSC>29.49M>RSEFRLG>35.28M?
>>shoehorned several legendary PokemonYou mean the best legendary of all time? Yes you do.
>>bland as fuck charactersMay and Leaf are great player characters. Villains are comically dumb goals but great designs. Steven is cool. Gym leaders and e4 are lame but so are most of the other ones.
>>terrible graphicsI feel they played it safe but created the core of what pokemon is. Everything you need and nothing you don't.
>>terrible musicYes but I blame the GBA.
>>half the region has tentacoolOnly in the water just like every other region.
>>horrible text font in RS that FRLG had to repair and Emerald decided RS was so garbage the entire game needed to be fixedI actually like the RS font and like how it's different. Emerald added a lot of features and improvements like any good game does.
>>stupid shit like making Leaf Blade physical later onIt was special in gen 3, blame gen 4.
>>Battle frontier forced the autists to consider it post gameIt doesn't matter what you call it. Most people seem to like it.
