>Darker storyline that isn't just "collect badges, fight Elite Four"
>Competent villains that consistently feel threatening instead of like a joke
>Fully-developed region based on Arizona with its own history and landmarks
>Awesome soundtrack
>Memorable side-characters
>Every fight is a double-battle, requiring more complex strategies and team-building
>Exclusive moves for certain Pokemon that aren't otherwise available in the main games (Heal Bell Dragonite still catches people off-guard to this day)
