>>44411902I liked RSE and played it as a child. My biggest problem with it was how rare pokemon were distributed. Chimecho, Relicanth, and shedinja are never seen by a standard trainer, making knowledge of these pokemon low. Obtaining pokemon like wynaut, azurill, gorebyss, huntail, shedinja required Gamefaqs, or ridiculously dumb luck.
Legendaries had problems too. The golems could be easily missed, and although the quest is perhaps the most fascinating in the series, it's a little too unorthodox.
Gen 4 fixed the regional dex. If you battled every trainer in Sinnoh and completed the main quest, you would see all the regional pokemon. There was new evolutions with silly prerequisites and legendary overload, but it was all post game features.
I also want to add that Gen 3 was the original dex cut. For a couple years I didnt know if 160 of the 360 or so pokemon were coming back.
