Oh? You meant for hoenn?
That route under Mt. Pyre wasn't anything special. Other than that, eh, it was all fine.

The water routes are pretty damn lame. I don't care if it's a meme, bothering with anything but the story important stuff on them is a slog.

the water routes are an obvious choice, but the part of Route 111 that isn't a desert has nothing to offer except the winstrate house. also, a desert with a constant sandstorm right in the middle of a sunny, grassy route (and one next to a mountain at that) is just as stupid as Unova having one between two cities and bordering the water.

The area between Ever Grande Junction and Pacifidlog. Just one long ocean route with fucking nothing excspt trainers on it and you can't just hug the wall to dodge them all like you could in the old games.

Not really, lots of Kanto routes are short but you don't traverse the region as linearly as other ones. I recently played FR for the first time and was surprised at how cohesive everything was. Kanto routes are pieces of a bigger puzzle and the challenge usually lies in npc battles, which the routes are designed to reinforce. Newer games have geared towards more focus in the wild aspects of the region, like in gen 5 and 7.

I agree with that except for the characters. May/Brendan are the worst rivals in the franchise (only played up to gen 5, the rest aren't canon) and Birch/Wallace don't come close to Oak/Blue

Celadon and Saffron are both meant to be Tokyo, so the route separating them being the size of a city park perfectly makes sense to have been planned this way.

To sum up my review, only 35% of the map is actually good.

I can't think of a bigger after thought within the first 3 generations than Littleroot Town.

the remakes really missed an opportunity to make the water routes feel less bland by panning the camera back so you can see distant islands.

i really like them conceptually, on a map the water routes look fine, but when you're actually playing it with a camera 2ft above the player's head they're pretty mediocre.

Please be bait. If you think trainers with two to four pokemon in their base evolutions is challenging then you have no place talking about design philosophy. Besides Victory Road, all the trainers have are Nidorans, Bellsprouts, and Sandshrew; Kanto has by far the easiest npcs.
