>>45854081FRLG was made in order to make missing Kanto pokemon available in gen 3.
HGSS was bursting with new content for gen 2.
Even LGPE has some purpose, it was to bring in GO players and experiment with new ideas like OW encounters.
ORAS was made because? What was gen 3 missing from modern gens? The split? ORAS was born purely to cash in on Hoenn hype and it shows. Anons like to say the downfall began with XY but honestly it was ORAS. ORAS left behind trainer customization, it didn't use any of Emerald's trainer battles and feels even more of a cakewalk because of megas, and it committed the greatest sin to this day of abandoning the Battle Frontier, especially in a time when they started making breeding easier. ORAS even looks worse than XY. ORAS was nothing but Hoenn remake hype and new mega evolutions hype.
